    This is the General Discussion for the Theme Creation Competition Thread. In this thread, you will be able to ask questions, sign up late if you didn't get the chance before, to provide information and to have friendly, but competitive discussions amongst yourselves.

    All server and forum rules apply in this competition. We know things can be competitive at times, but don't go overboard, such as insulting, sabotaging, etc

    If you want to discuss this competition on the server with other teams you can join the channel Project Mafia.

    You have been split into 4 groups and you all will have a month to create a theme for the channel. The teams are listed below:
    THE WACKY WEREWOLVES - Lead by BeastCharizard:
    Princess Luna
    Slowkii
    KM007
    Angel Flonne
    Trosh


    THE DEADLY DONS - Lead by Fuzzysqurl:
    Not L
    Hopkirk
    EarlS
    Human Destroyer
    GreenWater10
    LadyHoliday


    THE INSANE INSPECTORS - Lead by Dark Phoenix:
    Professor Lars
    YellowManilai
    Apollo77
    Yalaa
    Tesla Elesa
    Roild


    THE SKILLFUL SAMURAIS - Lead by Zzyzx Road:
    Black Mage
    TheUnknownOne
    kyucumber
    inigomontoya
    Navz

    You do not have to know how to code in order to contribute, but if you are found to not be contributing to your team, you will be replaced/removed from your team.

    After the 4 weeks, there will be 3 days where all 4 themes will be live on the channel, giving everybody a chance to play these themes, as well as being able to play other themes.
    After those 3 days, a poll will be opened and members of the community will be allowed to vote their favourite theme. DO NOT VOTE YOUR OWN THEME OTHERWISE YOUR VOTE WILL BE NULL AND VOID. The winner will have their theme uploaded.

    4 Private channels will be assembled for each team, in order to prevent "spying" or "sabotage". All people running the competition will require entrance to monitor the progress in order to see if it is running smoothly. These will be named after your team.

    If you are late, but you wish to join, simply fill out this form and post it in the thread:

    What would happen in the event of multiple good themes? Like, sure we can declare a winner, but what if the other 3 themes are also amazing?

    If my team loses I will change my name to CharizardSucks or something else people want and keep it that way for a month.

    I will let the winning team captain chose my name.

    Yes

    @Fuzzy: Those themes can be sent to QC like any normal theme and could be approved anyway.

    You know no matter how many people put themselves first - my team ranks consistently 2nd.

    hmm - that obviously means that by default - my team averages higher than all of yours coming in last - henceforth..

    II = #1 JS. let's go team! :D

    I think it would be:
    S>D>I>W
    (just using one letter)
    Its not that I doubt the productivity of my team, its just that I think my team is good, but zzy, bm, and TUO have coded stuff before. My team has LH and Fuzzysqurl, who have made themes before, but zzy has good ideas, but I'm not saying that my team mates doesn't have good ideas. perhaps its best to not post this, but I'm just sharing my opinions.

    And for some reason nobody notices the Werevolves have so many good ideas between Beast, Luna, KM007, Flonne and me, plus a wildcard in Slowkii because I've never seen his work before. Seems like it's time to bring out my Swiss Army Knife because we're opening up a can of WHOOPASS! :P

    Prediction:

    W>S>I>D

    OMG, Spies! Kill them with Fire Blast!

    But seriously, if you are going to spy on someone, spy the Skillful Samurais. Most crazy ideas will come from there (can't say that will be enough to win, but if anyone is that desperate for ideas...)

    Okay, that wasn't me. That's 1 person down.

    And I'm afraid we might be falling behind a bit. However, I'd still say we have a solid lead over the other teams with a genuine concept and unique implementation down, as opposed to the whole mess y'allz themes tend to be when you submit them to QC. gg guise >:3

    We've got a mess and a unique concept.

    The mess is more of a controlled mess, but a mess no less.


    Also, inb4 more than 1 team uses the same either "unique" concept or the same/similar flavor

    I have some leaks! Someone told me that The Wacky Werewolves' theme will have an overpowered Charizard role! Gotta wonder why they would make such role...

    (inb4 that actually happens)

    I am stating right now if any other team has the same idea as us I am going to be mad and immediately believe your team is the one who "found" our page.

    They turned down the over powered charizard role sadly. :(

    What exact day is the deadline? Feb 28th?

    Also, why is Deadly Dons the least active team? I vote we change our name to "Dormant Dons"
    We've already had one person subbed out for inactivity and like a third of the current team haven't really done anything. Does any other team have this problem?

    No, my team actually does stuff because they have an awesome leader.

    I would also like to request a name change to "Winners" since that is what we are going to be crowned at the end anyway.

    I dislike the name and it greatly discourages other teams. Further more, that "BeastCharizard" role is pretty OP and makes the side too strong. For those reasons, Decline [1].
