Welcome to the new feature of Ready, Aim, Fire: Starting next round I will let you choose the theme of the round. You receive three options and choose the one you like best. Here's how it shall work:
1) You have three days to name the scenario, you would like best to be implemented
2) Signups will be done once the new thread is up but early registrations are still allowed.
3) Please do not vote in this poll if you don't intend to participate in Ready, Aim, Fire!
4) In addition to voting in the poll, you may suggest new ideas for future rounds. They may show up in one of the future polls.
5) At the end of three days, the option with most votes will be chosen as theme for the next round. If several entries are tied at the top, I choose one of them.
6) All options that received 25% or more of the votes will be included in the next poll again. Options that received less than 25% will be held back for a while.
7) If the option "None of the above" is selected more often than any of the alternatives, I will choose a different theme altogether and hold back all of them for the next polls.
8) Choose wisely
Your options:
1) Nights of Chicago (Vampires)
In the dark corners and alleys of 1920's Chicago, drugs and weapons are smuggled while the mafia cashes in. The true rulers of the night, however, are the vampires that play the mortals like puppets. After the ancient prince of the town has fallen into torpor, the vampires of the city fight each other for the title. Will be based on the World of Darkness universe.
2) End of a childhood (Students)
In the Japan of the 21st century, a cruel TV show has been installed. In order to deter juvenile criminals and tighten its grip on the population, the authoritarian regime sends classes of schoolchildren into desolate areas and forces them to fight each other to the death before the eyes of a nationwide audience. Will be based on Battle Royale by Koushun Takami
3) Banquet Arcana (Sourcerors)
All of Ankh-Morpork looks at the Unseen University. After the 305th Archchancellor Mustrum Ridcully had passed away, an era of peace and inertia among the magicians has come to an end. Dozens of ambitious mages see their chance to claim the position and have no qualms to put their fellow wizards to death in order to reach it. Will - obviously - be based on the Discworld universe by Terry Pratchett.
