The result was merge to Underground Gamer. The consensus is that the article Underground Gamer needs to be created with a subsection about BitGamer, where this will then be merged. :) ·Salvidrim!· ✉ 14:58, 30 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable as per WP:GNG (possibly also WP:NRVE and WP:WEB).

Out of the provided sources, only one may be anywhere close to reliable - the TorrentFreak article covering the website's termination. The remaining three consist of a link to a third-party mirror of the site's torrents - which I'm not sure is even allowed under Wikipedia's copyright policy - and two Reddit discussions which automatically fail WP:RS and WP:NEWSBLOG by the fact of being forum discussions.

Keep BG was a pretty successful tracker for current-gen systems, until they closed it. I think it's notable, even if the sources used are less than adequate. -Kai445 (talk) 18:50, 2 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Not enough substantial coverage to meet GNG by my reckoning. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs^(talk)
Merge to the uncreated Underground Gamer page which also is defunct according to recent Torrentfreak postings. As a side-project the true GNG and N claims will be made by Underground Gamer and this would be a perfect sub-section. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 03:29, 8 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'd be okay with a merge to a UG sub-section with BitGamer redirecting there. Sounds like a good idea. -Kai445 (talk) 22:27, 8 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
