Do you like Dinosaurs and prehistoric times? Make that one of your suggestions! Are you a fan of metalworking and artifice? Throw out your best idea on how to make a plane with that. Anyone feel like an entire world set completely underground, or under the ocean would be fantastic? Now's your chance! Of course, I'm sure your suggestions will be much more creative than the ones I just stated. I can't wait to see what everyone recommends for us to work on.
Things to note. You get three, yes three suggestions. This is to prevent there from being hundreds of ideas that will take far too long to sort through and judge. However, the process by which we determine the ultimate winner will be through a series of polls. Once everyone has put forward their best ideas, I'll make a new thread that will have a poll for to winnow the ideas.
In other words, we should have about 24 ideas on this thread, then a poll will take place that will select the best suggestion from each designer. So for instance, the first poll will result in each designer's two best suggestions advancing to the second poll to form a top 16. After that, the top 16 will be voted on, to get a top 8. The top eight will then be voted on, to get a top 3, and the winner of the top 3 will be the idea we use to make this set!
However, this is dependent on everyone be agreeable to this series of determinations. If someone feels this could be improved, we can certainly do things differently. The process could be made much shorter or much longer depending the opinions of the design team. We could cut out the top 16 and go straight to a top 8 if people would like, or alternatively add another round as well.
For your suggestions themselves, there isn't really any particular rules, aside from some basic guidelines. Keep it appropriate for a magic set, i.e nothing Wotc themselves wouldn't do in terms of age level and content. (However, doing something Wotc wouldn't do in terms of a unique idea is totally fine, just not something R rated or anything)
Feel free to go into as much depth as you want or think necessary when describing your idea, just use a spoiler if you have a lot to say. Try to focus on what makes your plane or set idea exciting, novel, and rich for developing a set in or around. You've got to sell it lol

If anyone has any questions about the process, let me know, and I'll do my best to answer them. I'll also be posting my three suggestions on this thread as well. Also if the team wants to hash things out more, or have some introductions and discussion regarding our first moves, we can backtrack and ignore this thread until we're reading to launch into things, but I'm crazy excited and ready to go so here we are. Also, there is no time limit, so don't worry about having to do this in a hurry. As far as I'm concerned we can take all the time we need on this project, so you can submit whenever your ready, no pressure.
Without further ado, the team as it stands:
