For the record, Kyrib0, when you said "dwarven exploration teams" and "human adventurers" and such, that's more or less what I'm actually aiming for. It is meant to be a rather broad theme. It just has to look like someone who's out there to adventure, not to fight a war or something - traveler gear, backpacks, maps, compasses, whatever. He could still be a knight or something, or wear armor, but it needs to be obvious that the person is not a soldier, but an adventurer, which should be up to the contestant to demonstrate and for the judges to judge. :)
Ah, glad we're thinking along the same wavelengths (I imagine a "Skyrim guy" or two wouldn't be out of place, then).

Yeah, this is why I want "multi-vote poll", since almost every Theme I hear I can come up with cool ideas for. For "Adventurer"... Well, I heard of it a while back but have long looked forward to it; it'd be neat to have a "Dwarven Explorer/Prospector/Archaeologist" or summat like Brann Bronzebeard of Dwarven/Wc3 legend. Sort of a 'renowned explorer' that discovered & tapped into ancient Titan constructs/technology. He'd have a variety of "Dora the explorer-y" type abilities, then several involving the ancient Titan-stuff. Coolio.

By the way, before we can even think about starting this contest, we still need the judging results for the previous one. Kyrbi0, how are those coming along? Did anyone report back to you?
I knoooooooowwww!! D: I'm sorry (Just had to bring that up, didn'tja?? >:/...) Yes, I've gotten stuff from 3 Judges finally (one of them did it 'differently' so I've had to do some math to retrofit the scores), but JesusHipster backed out and Fingolfin hasn't responded (from what you & I talked about a while back). Mind checking with Fingolfin?

But yeah, I've got most of the stuff, just have to retrofit & organize the Judging. Life has been pretty busy recently, so I hope to accomplish this soon.

Sure; Here ya go.

- Steampunk
- Adventuring (Basically, a model depicting adventures of old. By limiting it to old, we will rid outselves of shitloads of skyrim clones.)
~ Vikings of Badassery (Basically look up old viking tales and personify them. Although this might just be adventuring when I think about it.)
- Mythology (Basically mythological creatures or reimaginations of them)
- Spirituality (Diablo is basically angels and demons, but why limit ourselves to christianity?)
- Necromancy
- Beings of Raw Energy. Elementals, Archons, ect.
- Hero Demotion (opposite of "Promotion")
- Other (Please explain what.)

Sounds a bit too complicated, Ralle. I'm not sure if lots of people would participate in it. Plus, we've already had Morphing Units, which is similar. Some people did what you described too.

- Hero Demotion (opposite of "Promotion")

Does it have to be hero demotion? Why not demotion in general? E.g, turning a knight into a squire or an abomination into a small zombie.
