There will be at least a few more cuts in the sticky list. A shorter sticky list will let any popular non-sticky stay high on the page, including the cookbook thread. We're trying to strike the right balance.

Thanks for the explanation. Since the deals are so time-dependent, it doesn't make sense to me that any of the genre deal threads are sticky; I'd rather see the newest threads first. But if they are to remain and be pruned, I hope the selection process is logical
Please keep the Kobo coupon thread sticky though, as I check the first post before making any purchase. And thanks to pdurrant for maintaining it
