I never did thank you for posting the repost of ideas (trust me, it helped so much while I was writing out the 3 proposals!) and everything. ^^ I've finally finished them, and now all I have to do is elaborate and I'll post! (:
As for your suggestion, I was going to make a poll! Great mind think alike! It seems polls are the only way I can decide things in the committee, so we're sticking with it! XDD
I hope to use the next two weeks and finish everything up, so just throwing a approximate date out there.
Thanks again! <3

So here are the proposals for the theme voting! It's been waaayyy too long on my part, so I'm sorry! ^^;;
Anyway, here we go:
Proposal #1: xxxHotel Transylvania
First suggested by Robayn.
This will be like a masquerade party for monsters in a hotel by the name of Hotel Translyvania. The hosts will be the monsters and the guests will be the humans. The monsters are all going to be dressed up as different monsters (?). The masquerade is hosted by (some classic monster here, played by Spottedteddybears), and he/she is under disguise as the manager. All monsters are obviously monsters, but they do not have to be classic monsters (ex. vampires, zombies, werewolves etc...) although they can be.
Pretty self-explanatory.
Now the thing I've been working on is some plot twists. I want the hot clubs to have a light plot to it, nothing structured or anything. Just a plot twist to make things interesting and intense.
So I was thinking for the plot twist: Countess Ravenna (or something cooler, idk) come into the masquerade, without a disguise. All the humans can see that she is, in fact, a real monster. They soon come to a realization that the ball-goers around them were also not human. They start freaking out. Which bring the monsters into chaos because human fear exhilarates them (?). The monsters try to find out which ones are the monsters without blowing their own cover. The human try to escape. But they can't because the Countess is blocking the exit. She wants the humans to die. The monsters end up helping the human and the Countess dies. The end.
Uh, I'm not exactly sure who is going to play the Countess. She's going to be really evil, and she's going to appear half-way through the couple-day-long event, so a co-host playing her wouldn't be ideal. I'm thinking about getting a mule to play her if we do decide to use this.
Yay? Nay? Like the idea but don't like the plot? Simply don't want a plot?
Proposal #2: xxxDark Carnival
First suggested by Sari1995.
This is about a circus in town, a mysterious bunch. The hosts will all be performers while the guests are the audience. Generally, the guests don't show up until a while after, so the first bit we're just going to play out the show quickly so that guests can come right in to mingle with the performers after the show (which is going to be the event). The performers are going to be evasive and mysterious, and they are definitely NOT going to be human.
If this idea is chosen, we're definitely going to have to elaborate.
The plot twist shall be finding out that the performers are not human. They can be anything. I'm thinking something along the lines of vampire/superhuman/supernatural/whatever.
Proposal #3: xxxZombies (Xombies)
First suggested by Ronyo Storm.
Basically, it will be a bunch of zombies rising form the grave, acting all human. The guests (random humans that showed up at the scene [lolwhut?]) will be mingling with the zombies thinking they're human. Or something. And the zombies will think they are human too. Until their skin starts rotting off.
Plot twist: Zombies' (Xombies') skin starts rotting off and they realize that they are actually not alive anymore.
If chosen, we need to elaborate it more. A lot. But the zombies can fit in so many scenarios, which will make it easy to create a scene around it.
Okay. And then the infamous "OTHER" option. This is if none of the proposals you like. If you do choose this option, make sure to post your idea!
Thank you, sorry for the wait and let's get voting!

As much as I pushed for it, I don't know about the final idea for the Xombies. The point of zombies are to shot them, run from them, barricade yourself up, get that terrible "we are not going to make it" sensation, and then come up with a crazy plan and make it out. If I didn't play a Xombie and started finding out other people were zombies, I would likely start killing them, because that's what you do to zombies.
So based on the ideas purposed here...I would have to go with the Hotel Transylvania. It looks the most thought out from what you wrote up.
Still think the idea of surviving and having to band together to escape a zombie horde would be cool. Instead of making everything seem like a "party" make it have a different style of collaborative gathering. Just because we are the Annual Ball guild does that mean every event we do has to have a ball like mindset?

Zombies are boring the only fun thing about them is that you can shoot them a lot. And lame zombie jokes. So choice 2 or choice 1 for me.

Captain Dory What about a Hang-Man game? Hehe, I think that would be more like some loose plot and games rather than a theme. If you want, we could incorporate that into whatever theme is chosen, like as an after-party for the Carnival, a masquerade game for Hotel Transylvania, or zombies... Yeah. ^^

Instead of making everything seem like a "party" make it have a different style of collaborative gathering. Just because we are the Annual Ball guild does that mean every event we do has to have a ball like mindset? Like I said, if we go with Zombies, we're definitely going to have to flesh it up. Or the Carnival. The only reason I fleshed up the Hotel one is because I spent a good week working on that on and off. ><
These ideas are obviously not going to be the "final" idea, if we do end up with Zombies. Because it'll be pretty boring. If you want to add anything or edit the Xombies idea, go for it!
About everything being in a "ball" setting, the only reason I made the Hotel have a ball is because it'll be awkward for a whole bunch of people to show up at a dusty hotel in the middle of nowhere. That, and the popular idea for the monster mash. ^^ We don't have to do a ball setting if we all decide we don't want to for the theme, but if Hotel Transylvania gets chosen, then it has to be a masquerade. Just so it flows, you know?
If Zombies gets chosen, we'll work out why people are there, and the Carnival is definitely not going to a ball. I hope that helps! (:

Ah, no problem! I always condense things for myself anyway, that way I can keep things straight, and sharing is a matter of copying and pasting.
I voted for Dark Carnival because I have nebulous unformed ideas growing in my brain involving it.

I voted for Dark Carnival because I have nebulous unformed ideas growing in my brain involving it. LOL. Lists are nice, too. I make a bunch of checklists myself, and Robayn really likes lists. So welcome to the family! ^^
Yay! Don't forget to post it! <3
