Hey, @Lady5tark, would you mind including a link to the page(s) so I can convince a relative or two to vote when the time comes? They won’t be able to find it unless I send it…

@Lady5tark I vote for Winter Getaways. I’ve got a killer idea entitled “Winter Wonderland During a Blizzard.” Those that have seen it have lovingly described it as “too snowy”, which will be perfect in this derby!

No politics - is this a political party ban only, or would it also extend to “voting” or “revolution” inspired designs? I just want to narrow down my ideas. If it does, I’ll still work these up and sub the idea directly, but I’d need a backup idea if not. I’m just assuming it’ll be robots at this point. Robots rule - or at least, they WILL.

Just make a design that covers both!

I could accept revolution or voting designs.

How do we feel about “Scenes from a post Sky-net induced nuclear winter”? Seems like it could work for both themes. Or does it sound too snowy?
