Emcee peoples - should we have a theme? And if so, what? List of participants is inside.→[More:]

So far I have this list of people who want to play:

cortex
funmonkey1
taz
iconomy
shane
krix
mr h
eth
auntbunny
chick-n
mygothlaundry
Zack_Replica
safetyfork (at the end)

and dano as a possible alternate.

Would anyone like to try a theme? One of the older emcess had skin as a theme, and it worked pretty well. What do you think? Too limiting, or adds to the challenge/fun? Or do you like freestyle better?

I'll do a final list later and email everyone.

theme or no, all good with me.

I've been trying to think of a theme but no subject seems to come to mind. If we did have themes, I'd think they'd have to be general (summer, night, water) rather than specific (bunnies, cake, snowmen), as the specific is too limiting, IMO.

the specific is too limiting, IMO

So, like, "a man standing alone in a field, in the penumbra of a single oak's shade, dying of a gunshot wound" would be, then, not a good suggestion?

Because I wasn't going to suggest that. I was, uh, just making an example. Is all.

I laughed. A lot.

So if I started a flickr group called "Photos of a man standing alone in a field, in the penumbra of a single oak's shade, dying of a gunshot wound", would you join, cortex?

As soon as I found a gun, yes.
