Avatar Theme Week Central 4

[Ace Mace]

Hello everyone! After hearing about Avatar Theme Weeks, then rebooting them with the reanimation, I decided to make the next Avatar Theme Week Central thread. From what I've gathered, we each can nominate a theme for the week, then after a short period of nominations, we have a vote, then the highest count vote becomes the week.

This thread will be for suggesting new theme ideas and discussing old ones. To request, discuss, or show off avatars, consult the individual threads for each theme.

Here's a more detailed list of how things happen:

The process for choosing a new week is currently as follows:

1. Nomination phase: People nominate new weeks by suggesting their Theme Week Idea in bold.
2. Voting phase: All of the nominated weeks are listed and each person can vote for their top three choices in bold red.
3. Yay! We Won! phase: Once a week is chosen, one of the supporters for that week should make a separate thread for the theme week in question and then link it in this thread so I can add it to the archives above.

P.S. I'm still pretty new to these threads. I wasn't around before to see how Avatar Theme Weeks run, and I'm just going by how past threads I found did it. If you think I'm doing something wrong, feel free to comment so I can fix it. I hope I did everything right.

[Lycunadari]

Yay, theme weeks are back!

Nominations:

Fey Week
Divine Week
Elemental Week
Nude Week

[Cuthalion]

Magic Week

[Duck999]

Fun, I always liked the ideas of theme weeks.

Computer Week
Demolition Week
Friend Week (Have a friend from the playground make you an avatar.)

[TherianTheorist]

A fun way to practice inkscape, just what I needed.

I Nominate:

Elemental Week
Werewolf Week
Demolition Week

[Duck999]

Just for the pun

Weak Week

Edit: There are also a lot of weeks I'd be fine with a rerun of, like Derpatar and Monty Python. I would feel bad for people who participated now and then because they would have to do a rerun then.

You don't need to nominate weeks that were already nominated by someone else, that makes it easier to organise.

Weak Week

Edit: There are also a lot of weeks I'd be fine with a rerun of, like Derpatar and Monty Python. I would feel bad for people who participated now and then because they would have to do a rerun then.

I'd say just go ahead and nominate them, if enough people want a rerun, then they will vote for it even if we already had such a week.

[Oneris]

I nominate:

Doll Week
Dessert Week
8-bit Week
Music Week
Circus Week

and a rerun of

Victorian Week
Steampunk Week
Nationality Week

Edit: Also Zodiac Week (Western or Chinese)

[Duck999]

Just a suggestion:
The person to make the thread for a given week could be the person who first nominated the week, unless they don't want to make it.

[Beacon of Chaos]

Ah, I was gonna say 8-Bit Week. Hmm.

Food Week
Sci-Fi Week
Alignment Swap Week

[Cuthalion]

Just a suggestion:
The person to make the thread for a given week could be the person who first nominated the week, unless they don't want to make it.

Generally it's the person who has the most time and is willing.

[Duck999]

Alignment Swap Week

But then my avatar would have to be a good guy.

Generally it's the person who has the most time and is willing.

That... makes much more sense.

I know. I misread it. And was posting from my phone.

[Ravens_cry]

Also, Face Week

Could you explain what you mean by that?

[Duck999]

It is just a face.
