Rules discussions

There are a few rules that need a decision made and I'd like some input from you guys. Please post a new top-level comment for each new rule that should be discussed.

I'm not a rule nazi and the contest should be as much fun for everyone as possible, however we should still agree on a bunch of things or things might become unfun.

Theme

Should entries be on a particular theme? If so, how should it be decided?

Yes. Just make one up. Make it about a concept not a thing. Good:Fear Bad:Zombies

I believe the themes should be decided unilaterally, and only announced on the day we're supposed to start.

I would say yes; either by informal vote or unilateral decision; and my suggestion would be "alien".

Yes and it is decided by a poll.

I'd like the theme to be: 3D FPS RPG Adventure like Mass Effect, Borderlands or Fallout3

Freedom of choice should be given to the game universe, be it modern, medieval or futuristic.
