Scavenger Hunt has been even suggested plenty of times before. I was also about to throw that in before I switched to FLUDDs/Caps. So it's nice to have that in.
Actually, with 9+ themes suggested ties or low victories are very likely to happen, so can we please reserve doing it in two rounds?

We could just have a poll where you can pick 2 or 3 options. Then you would just pick your top three, basically.

Or maybe we should have multiple voting polls. After the first poll, the themes that tie for the lowest number of votes are taken off of the next poll. The second poll contains all the polls that didn't place/tie last.

I think the main concern that is that with only 1 vote per person, a lot of the themes will only get one or no votes at all, which isn't really very representative of the community's overall interests.

Agreed, but there should still be multiple polls.

Yes, but I'm saying that the problem with having the first poll only be 1 vote per person with every single option would be a bad idea.
Anyway:
[7:21 PM] Raiyuuni: Would it be too much of a convoluted process if the poll had a preliminary round?
[7:23 PM] Raiyuuni: e.g. People get to choose a few themes (2~4), and the three or four most requested ones go to the final poll
This is pretty much what I was thinking would happen.

I'd choose Colors, Dream, Eerie or Metroidvania. Those seem to be very good.

I choose Vertical,Freestyle,FLUDDS and Power Caps,and Scavenger Hunt.
They don't limit you much in terms of graphical designing.

Hold your horses!
I'll have a poll up by tomorrow morning. This is your last opportunity to sumbit or revise nominations.

Yeah, that solves it best, I guess.
Would recommend that everyone chooses up to three themes. (in the halloween avatar contest, we also chose three avatars each)
