I am having a open thread day for today. Due to some health problems I am going to have to cut the contest and challenges down to one per week. I really hate to do this. The last few Share Days have done really good, so I am thinking about posting more of them during the week. Isia and I can set the topics up to post during the week. I want to use today for everyone to give me ideas for topics. I want to have the topic to play hand in hand with Hero Machine. This way people can design characters for the topics and share them. A good example would be yesterday’s Share Day Topic about fantasy races, you could post what you believe they should look like. So let’s hear your ideas.

Current Contests!
Custom Character Portraits!
Awh. I hope you get better soon, HK.
@Kaldath: I’m the only one I know who ever played an enchanted human that could subject people to ‘Kender torture.’ It went well.
As a topic, perhaps a ‘rough-it’ day, where people put together a crude representation of an item that isn’t in hm3, and you pick one and have a contest later in the week to make that item? Should come with a description, one word to three short sentences.
Friday Night Fight!
If you don’t feel up to doing a lot of the contests and challenges I’m sure there are some other people who would be prepared to take up the slack. I know I would be happy to.
Just to say I hope you’ll get better
Thanks for the well wishes.
Thanks JR but I don’t think the contest will be gone for to long.
@ Atomic, the FNF take up more time then the regular ones do.
But they’re so much fun!
Really wish that I had it together right now. I’d host an FNF if I had more time. Though I am thinking of starting a new thread in the forums…
Maybe some more guest blogs (comic / movie reviews, tips & tricks, story / character ideas). Move the Hero of the Month poll to the blog. Geek classics… general discussion about favorite heroes, movies, books, story arcs, RPGs, video games, board games, “what-ifs.”
I had to backtrack to an open thread, but I had an idea. How about we have a post to talk about overlooked, underappreciated, and underestimated characters? All the guys that work behind the scenes that help out a lot but dont get all the glory, or the zero’s that make us laugh. Whoever comes to mind. My first thought went to Forge. There’s a guy with cool powers who helps out the Xmen alot but always seems to be a bridesmaid and never a bride if you know what I mean. What are your thoughts HM gods?
Under-rated characters are a good topic. Goes hand-in-hand with obscure / underground comics. Stuff that goes along with personal favorites.
Which also brings to mind franchises that were cool then utterly destroyed by their own creators or the “corporati” (*cough* TMNT *cough*).
