.:THIS WEEK'S POLL:.

What kind of theme should we have for the Xmas Compo?


Only 4 months until Christmas and as always we will be holding our Christmas Competition so we want to know what exactly you want to have as a theme or even if you want a theme for it at all. As always you can discuss within this news item and tell everyone what we should do for this year's competition. Happy voting!

Note: Festive Theme basically means any holiday that takes place within the Winter period including Christmas. So it could be based on Kwanzaa or even Hanukkah. The choice would be yours to create something suitable for that holiday season. Here is a list of different Winter Festivals.

urr first post yay!!!!!!!!!!1

Uh, yeah, I voted for no particular theme.
 
Posted by Attan 20th September, 2007

Voted "other theme". I want something more... NOT boring.
 
Posted by Ricky 20th September, 2007

I think we should do a combo. You could do winter or Festive depending on what you feel like.

Good games triumph!

Mario was always going to win, glad to see Sonic there but he's sorta running off early titles.

Religious themed. Else name it a Winter Comp or something, but that'd offend folks below the ol equator.

I'm sure they're used to it
 
Posted by viva/volt 21st September, 2007

Yes, we are. I voted winter anyway.
 
Posted by gustav 21st September, 2007

coca cola santa claus and everything else that's mildly repulsive about christmas. what else?
 
Posted by Hernan 21st September, 2007

I voted other. Anything is fine as long as it isn't Christmas themed again
 
Posted by axel 21st September, 2007

Religious theme! I want to offend large groups of people.

"Here is a list of different Winter Festivals." links to the front page of TDC. Fix!!
 
Posted by Broomie 21st September, 2007

Fixed now.
 
Posted by LIJI 21st September, 2007

Ugh, I'm ALWAYS finding something wrong in the news! X)

I voted religious theme so someone can finally get around to making the hilarious Templar Tumblers: Shitfaced. It's a game where you have to steer some of the crusade's finest from the after hours bar down the alleys and into the nearest inn.

ah. cmon, winter theme is okay, christmas theme is okay too, but don't tell me any other theme is a good choice.
winter theme contains any fest in winter, yup?
and, i'd not put any religious tought in my game.
and imho "no theme" is not good for winter. i'd love to play with some games with full of snow or santa's hats.

Lame choices! I think it should be a Christmas RPG compo! Think of the possibilities, Santa, Rudolf, The Snowman, and a piece of fruitcake teaming up against the forces of Christmas... evil?

Christmas rpg compo!

Nobody has said anything about the category of the game. This doesn't automatically make it a platform game, so we could decide the theme is the only requirement and it could be an RPG or a driving game. We are going to discuss this and see what the best option is, so I wouldn't quote me on that.

Wintertheme would be great!
Could make viking games in the harsh winter environments.
 
Posted by Cazra 22nd September, 2007

This year's theme should be about Kwanza. Only black people know what Kwanza's about, so we should raise awareness of it!
 
Posted by Ricky 23rd September, 2007

but i lie being ignorant...
 
Posted by alastair john jack 23rd September, 2007

Kwanzaa: a festival featuring African-American culture; celebrated between Christmas and New Year.
 
Posted by Hill Gigas 23rd September, 2007

tsk tsk tsk
 
Posted by Cazra 23rd September, 2007

no, they dress up in traditional African clothes, do some kind of Santa-equivalent thing, and then reenact The Lion King.
 
Posted by Xhunterko 23rd September, 2007

On the themes thing: aren't they all, the same really? I mean, with the exception of festive, all those categories could be in one game. I mean, you can't have a winter theme game without christmas in it. (well, maybe if its snowboarding)
On the vote: I didn't vote, cause i knew exactly who was going to win, so i didn't bother. The more obvious winners (including X and Zero) should have been left out all together. Im almost surprised that master chief didn't get the vote. There goes popularity for ya. (yes, im late, i know)
