Well, it includes candidates for both consumed worlds and survivors. Some of it is based on my own bias, some is based on what I think would get some good play and add interesting concepts into the RP.
I'm going to try and group at least the survivors into categories - perhaps we could put them in a bracket and narrow down by category and then a general vote, rather than just throwing together a few ideas?
I want to stress this point.[/u] I am not doing this to step on anyone's toes, but rather to be helpful. I do not suggest that any of these worlds be added now, or even "soon" - merely that these are suggestions for everyone to think about in the future. This is a depository and a way to try and begin a conversation, not a proposal.[/b]

Because I'm a big nostalgia geek, and we have Astro City and Cybertron, I suggest the following:
To provide a counterpoint to Metroid and the Legend of Zelda, I present a few other game worlds:
And some general "Science! fiction"
And now for a little fantasy.
And now some anime, manga, and sentai ideas:
Another superhero suggestion: League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, either comic or movie.
And two more, that I do not know where they fit:
Whew! That was a lot of typing, I tell you. Between the BBCode formatting and actually getting all of the ideas out, ouch. Why is it that the guy who hurt his hand is also the guy who comes up with a huge number of future suggestions?
Now, that was only about half of the suggestion. I told you I had some consumed worlds suggestions as well, didn't I? Here they come.

I promise you, some of my favorites are on that consumed list too. But that's a list of suggestions from me. Anybody want to talk about it?
