POLL: Amex Sync offers - one thread or more?

We have a single thread to report and discuss American Express (USA) sync offers. This mixes together cash rebates with (less popular) bonus point offers, and all types of merchants.

American Express has made it easier to navigate the list of offers by adding the ability to view by categories: Dining, Entertainment and Shopping. I don't find those categories as useful as: Travel, Dining and Retail.

Please reply to the poll to indicate if you would prefer to have:
  1. One thread for all offers.
  2. Two threads: one for Cash Back offers and another for Bonus Point offers.
  3. Three threads: one for Dining, one for Entertainment and one for Shopping.
  4. Three threads: one for Travel, one for Dining and one for Retail offers.

NOTE: Flyertalk's poll software does not allow changes. I can incorporate suggestions for future pools, but I cannot edit this one.

Looking at another card I see American Express using five categories:

Dining
Entertainment
Featured
Shopping
Travel

On two cards, I have Dining, Shopping, Travel
Another I have, Dining, Shopping, Featured
Another I have, Dining, Shopping, Featured, Travel


Personally I'd prefer an ignore, or archive option for the offers I consider to be crap which unfortunately is most of them.

I think people only care about these Sync offers where you either get free stuff (or nearly free), or where you can buy some sort of gift card at the store with the offer. This year there have been so few of these opportunities, that one thread should be sufficient.
