Does this include any pick ups like garbage can roast beef and chicken or things less disposable?
And what about things like sub-weapons?

I've still got half a mind to try to run Plants someday, but seeing as I'm currently running a thunderdome and just came off co-running Pokemon, I'm gonna wait a bit longer.
Also wondering if Johnny is threatening to do a Top 50 Top 50s. (Though... while amusing, I'm not so sure that would really be a great idea for a few reasons.)

I definitely have no interest in this (a thread on favourite moments from lists would probably be fun, though). It's not as bad as when I was running these lists on another board and people kept piping in with "top 50 forum members" and I was like "no".
That said, I do think "Top 50 Topics You'd Like to See" would be fun for Popularity Contest 51! But this is unrelated to my idea for when we hit 50. It will be more of a side-quest.
I mean, as the general theme of these lists seems to be "what does your heart tell you?", I planned on keeping it rather loose. Something you collect in a video game that makes your character stronger/more capable, and makes you the player feel happy to get it.

One more day for anyone to throw their hat in the ring. If not, it auto-magically goes to @Beta Metroid. Technically the deadline is tonight but we can wait just in case.
Munchies?
Personally I prefer broiled Donatello.
So you won't be dining on Turtle soup?

It's disconcerting that I don't know which of these headings April O'Neal goes under.
I have the poll cued up and I'll try to remember to post it in the morning, just in case another topic materializes.

Time for nominations for the next list!
People who want to host submit their topics. Here are the general rules.
1) So I don't miss your submission, please BOLD your suggestions.
2) Please no joke suggestions. At least, not in BOLD. People have some whimsical ideas for lists so I don't want people submitting a list and I put it up and then they are like "jk, stupid!"
3) If you give a BOLD suggestion, YOU must host. Granted, if something comes up you are free to pass the duty onto another but I just don't want people submitting lists under the assumption that SOMEONE will do it.
4) One submission for person please.
5) Don't insult or put down another person's suggestions. Discussing feasibility, concerns or issues with it are fine, but please don't just say "well, that's a stupid topic". At least one person thinks it isn't.
And please...
If you have any other questions or concerns or I just bungled something up, drop me a line.
The deadline is exactly 4 days from this post dropping so Sunday night.

I hate Christmas creep but this needs to get started early.
Top Winter Holiday Songs

Wait... So you were going to allow fictional plants? For some weird reason I thought that Top 50 would only be for real plants.
Johnny Unusual

I like it because I can rationalize it to the season. Because... like... Christmas Trees!

Oh, interesting! I misunderstood that too.

So far
Top 50 Plants - Kirin
Top 50 Winter Holiday Songs - Johnny Unusual
To be clear, I am aware this will primarily be Christmas songs but I don't want to be limited to that. There are New Years and songs for Hannukah and probably stuff I'm not aware of. I guess Thanksgiving songs if you know any. But for America (Canada's just happened last week).
(I wish I could find the Thanksgiving Carols commercial from Comedy Bang Bang).

Putting this here so I don't forget (and I definitely will need a break before doing the next one so might be a couple cycles before I could do it): Top 50 Video Game Shopkeepers

I'll send you a reminder. It should be a while anyway since Kirin are going after me and on top of that Dracula and Lokii are hoping to finish their list sometime next year.
A merchants list could be fun. Would in include PLAYABLE merchants?
I did have a "good idea for a list" thread but that was intended to be more "I have great ideas I don't want to/ don't have time to do". But it drives me nuts because I have so many ideas for lists. I need to make my own journal to keep track of them.
