That is not a good reason consider no SIG except games has its own 
mailing list.

If it is packaging details it should be in fedora-packaging list. Other 
details could be in fedora-devel list. In other words what do you 
discuss in fedora-games list that doesnt fit into any existing other 
Fedora lists?

Every SIG creating their own lists would essentially reduce the 
visibility and participation of contributors and users.
