Time for a Change?

[Macawmoses]

I say it's time we start discussing what our next theme is.

For those of you unaware as to what we call themes - other than skins - it is the name of the Forum Games Board, the Board Categories, Staff Board, Highest Post Count rank, and all of the Staff Ranks. We also usually do some other relevant things.

As such, we should consider our next one. Last time, I recall two choices standing out:

-House
-Mafia

I also would like to say a Metroid theme would be pretty badass, what with Trilogy coming out soon, and how intercourse ing awesome Other M looks. Pok?mon is another one I'd be fond of, but that's just me. House...is an obvious yes for me, because the show rules...but it makes more sense doing it while the show is airing. And Mafia just sounds plain fun.

Any ideas you have?

Halo

Now on a serious note, whatever this is. VVVVVVVVV

And so I won't get flamed out, Metroid is sounding really good. Plenty of small stuff for ranks, names for each board and such. I think it's the best of what you listed AND just a great choice.

What's our current theme? Mario? Very original. =|

Sonic by the look of it. Warp Zone, Grass Zone, I don't know. Not even joking, I don't play much Sonic

Mafia. I also demand every user gets a few guns.

the metroid 3pack will be worthless imo.  full of glitch and bugfixes, removal of sequence breaking.  Any core metroid fan would just go get the originals. The only thing you get in return is the wii controls and leaderboards that will be spammed with times of "0:59" and "1:02", which are impossible to achieve, even on the NTSC copy. Frankly, i'd rather use a gamecube controller anyways.

Hey cool we're not talking about that.

I strongly oppose the ideas of House and Mafia.
We might want to stray a bit away from Nintendo-only as a Nsider spinoff, yes, but we don't want to completely abandon the idea of focusing mainly on video games. And so we should keep all our themes video game related.

Yeah, which is why I threw Metroid out there. Board/Category wise there are a ton of ideas...but I'm a tad lost for unique staff ranks. Top Hunter for Admin?

Mafia.
Free Thompsons for everyone.

Let's be Megaman or old Final Fantasy related.

Or... you know.. [spoiler]castlevania[/spoiler]

[Jono2]

well, the main reason i'm opposed to metroid is that i already semi-frequent another metroid forum >_>

i'd go for batman or house.

[SkyMyl]

We still haven't gotten that gosh darn SMB3 skin, and we're changing themes already?

For our next theme, I vote for The World Ends With You. If not, then Final Fantasy.

Glad to know I wasn't the only one to catch this.

How about a Touhou theme? ^^

If we do Pok?mon, how about we base the ranks off trainers?
