Following up on 2015/2016 Card Design Contest? (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=14172.0), let's pick a theme!
Rank the following options in order of preference. I will leave this open for about 3 weeks, and then we'll follow up with setting parameters for the chosen contest (e.g. if option 4 is selected, we'll need to pick art first). If other options are suggested, I will possibly add them to this list - please limit these to suggestions about themes for the card designs themselves, rather than suggestions for organizing the contest (those can go in the other thread).
2016 Contest Theme Options
1. Treasure Chest Continuation (cards fitting thematically with existing expansions)
2. Mini-Set Contest 2.0 (cards fitting mechanically with existing and new archetypes)
3. Cards designed around pre-determined card names
4. Cards designed around pre-determined card art (public domain)
5. Promo Design Contest (cards inspired by other games, or other cwazy ideas)
6. Other (add comment)

Noting that if 1 goes ahead, I would like "Promo" to be included as one of the "expansions" to design for.

1 > 2 > 3/4/5/6 (don't give a name, but a rough theme, different per card)
The idea to make a card according to a given name/theme/art seems cute to me, but if we are talking about an entire contest following that rule, i think the classics are best. In that respect, i see "Promo for another game" as a variant of "cards that go with a given theme".

At the moment, 1 has a slight lead over 2, with the other options further behind and close together. No big surprise there... assuming 1 or 2 wins, I will likely try to work in the other options as individual rounds.

No new votes in a while, so I'm going to go ahead and close this on Wednesday.
