[Icehouse] New Poll: Summer 2008 Theme Restriction?

I have begun a poll for Summer 2008 design restriction, specifically a
"themed" restriction like in the Iron Game Chef competitions (begun at
The Forge, now at its own site).

IGDC Summer 2008 Poll:

Iron Game Chef site:

I know it's a bit early to discuss a competition that will likely be
announced in May; but with a themed competition (unless I become a
dictator) there's a lot to discuss, vis a vis the terms from which
designers may choose and how we want to advise judges about ranking
based on thematic and non-thematic factors. Yes, we have months (and
months) and I'd rather us focus on judging Winter 2008... but it never
hurts to plan early and often, right?

Thanks, all--
David
