Yes, the current system suffers from low Pareto efficiency. Allowing each person multiple votes would help alleviate that problem.

               Alternative Vote is a fair and simple method. Voters rank candidates in order of preference, votes from the least popular candidate transfer to the next preference, repeat until there's a winner. No one seems to know of a Drupal package that does this. I've written this program in the distant past, so I could provide pseudocode if someone knows how to program the new vault.

Approval voting is both easier to implement and to use--several scientific associations employ it.

Baldur's Gate Series


 


Content from the beloved games of the past, be it the Baldur's Gate Series, the Icewind Dale Series or Planescape: Torment. Help recreate some of the nostalgic flair of the incredible artwork of the best RPG game that captured our imagination for hours on end.

If you want "Icewind Dale" games and "Planescape Torment" too, in the topic; maybe you should call it "Infinity series", because all of those games use the infinity graphic engine...


BTW I love those games too.

I like this one. It could also include battlefield debris, sapping tunnels, scaling ladders, banner holders, military instrument players (drums, bagpipes, fifes), and battle mages.

               Elemental Plane stuff, of course. That's clearly something that's dragged itself from the Elemental Plane of Air

               Dunno if this is the place to suggest themes for Custom Content contest etc
I was watching that tv show - Once upon a time - with all the disney / fairy tale characters brought to life etc

Has anyone done a Disney theme or fairy tale theme for CC yet?

I wouldn't mind seeing some Frozen assets
Eg: Snow Queen NPC (Elsa & Ingrid)
Or even other Disney movie assets: Genie from Aladin, or even Sleeping Beauty and Maleficent?

If the characters themselves is too hard - I do like the dress designs

I haven't made a suggestion for ages so... While I think it would be great to see this chosen I have my doubts but anyway...


 


Supermarionation is Go!


 


Autumn 2015 will be the 50th anniversary of the 60's hit TV show "Thunderbirds" which I think is the perfect time to have a CCC covering all (well maybe not Terrahawks  '<img'> ) of Gerry Anderson's puppet shows from "Four Feather Falls" up to and including "Joe 90". There are the craft, the clothes, the characters, the locations (Tracy Island anyone), the sounds, etc. At a pinch, I suppose you could include his live action shows as well (but not the awful live action Thunderbirds movie).

@ Supermarionation: 


 


Lol, most of those shows aired in the 70's along with live action stuff like Mighty Morphins Ancestral kung-fu fighting shows, and Godzilla...


 


(I still remember the one with the submarine divers...)


 


Modern parody = Team America, World Police


 


Kim-Jong-Il-in-Team-Ameri-001.jpg


 


(featuring Kin Jung's most excellent Dr Evil/Bond Villain style shark tank...)


 


hans-sharks.jpg


 


@ Disney Fairy Tales:

A great suggestion, tho I'd just call it "Fairy Tales" over "Disney"


 


(just to keep topic generic and non-copyright-infringement-ish)


 


rackgrim01.jpg


 


Could include the works of Hans Christian Anderson, Brothers Grimm, Canterbury Tales, Aesop's Fables, Yeats, and possibly Oz vs Wonderland?


 


+ 1001 Arabian Nights (Genies and Efreeti = the Fey of the desert, as literal wish granters who often twist wisher intentions, much like the Irish Devil)

 


pic289256_md.jpg


 


(1985 TSR board-game, akin to Knights of Camelot, epic fun)


 


pic509362_md.jpg


 


Arthurian Tales = Avalon, Lady of the Lake, the Questing Beast, Merlin, Mordred and Morgan Le Fey.

84453_md-Copyright%20Tsr%2C%20Deities%20


 


 


84455_sm-Copyright%20Tsr,%20Deities%20An


 


1226047876301_f.jpg


 


(Apparently 1981 "Excalibur" Merlin = Ultima's Mondain, Moran Le Fey = Minax, Mordred = Exodus?)

We already have a challenge about faery tales:


 


Custom Content Challenge 2012 Apr - Folktales & Myths


 


http://forum.bioware...lk-tales-myths/


 


http://neverwinterva...folktales-myths


 


CCC are always open to upgrade the content. So reintroducing the same topic again would be unfair for people who have suggested truly new ideas....
