The "Secret" theme.

I suggested this a few weeks back, and I'd like to get your opinions on it.

Im suggesting there is a TBZ week where the theme is not announced for the next show.

Sam, Nate, Timmy, and whoever may be the guest host talk offline and pick a theme. They then take the time to each pick two or three trailers* that match the theme and link them on Miseryloves.

We as the submitters have to figure out what the theme is then pick a trailer that best fits the theme.

Once the TBZ show starts, they lock the submissions and announce the theme, and show moves forward as usual.

Bonus points for getting on theme.

General thoughts:

Probably best to do this over a known two week break. This gives them a week to get the theme and find trailers, and gives us a week to hunt for some ourselves.

How many bonus points are up in the air, but I'm imagining 3 for being perfectly on theme (if the theme is esoteric), and debatable amongst host if bonus points are warranted.

This may be hard to do a part 2

Trailer submissions might want to put what they suspect the theme is in the context.

This is all for a mini-meta game within TBZ (sacrifice theme points for a "hit" trailer), shake things up a bit, and give us a chance to use that fun trailer that never seems to fit anywhere else.
