Was the drumroll necessary with the result being in the title? X3
Anyway, I'll come up with a comic. I have three Korbats, they can fly, I'll figure it out.

Okay, so when do I start advertising it? (No worries, I can wait to do that, I'm just asking. :3) (Maybe when we get a date...)

Great theme, already have some semblance of ideas forming! August is so far away though ^^;

I'm leaning towards August/July because of college/work schedules, haha. xP Late July would probably work, too. It also avoids the Altador Cup and any major site events... as far as I know. I wonder if CQ is working on site content now? I hope so. Like a plot. A plot would be awesome.

If CQ was working on a plot, that'd be awesome. She's seen a ton of interesting characters in the NT, maybe she's making up her own. Related to the collab, I can't guarantee I can help out as much as I would like. The majority of the planning will be during the summer and I can't guarantee I'll have access to the internet during all that time. During the summer, I'll be at home and since my only source of internet would be phone data and I don't know if that bill can be paid (yeah, money is pretty tight here :U), I can't guarantee my phone plan will be up. I'm hoping for the best, especially since I'll need to access the internet for school stuff during that time, but with how things are, I'm not counting this out. Just a fair warning. Sorry in advance. I'll try to give notice when I know it'll happen. And sorry about bringing my issues into this. I figured you'd understand if I explained what was happening.

I'd love to participate. I'm a NASA geek... Maybe I can come up with some Neopian version of NASA. I mean, I know we have the space station, so there's obviously space travel. I'm thinking some type of Mission Control type thing. I don't know.

I'm mulling over what to do for this. But I also wonder how this will fit in with Ink 3. They might possibly overlap. In which case I'd do nothing special at all. I'll have to see.

Count me in! Ideas are stirring, but I think I can do one dealing with one of my usual characters, considering he's a Grundo far removed from his home colony. Soooo... Space road trip story!

Unfortunately, unlike the last couple series, I don't see right now how to relate my next Blossoms series to this theme ^^; It's possible that a reference or connection may make itself known while I write it, but as of now, I'm not too sure my chances of participating in this, alas. No matter, though, I'm mostly curious on how others will interpret this theme as it's certainly open to plenty of possibility (omg the "sky is the limit" puns that could be made) I'm wondering as well, since we're currently going in the order of which themes got the most votes in our last poll, if another poll is in order soon? Soon enough we're going to run into the themes that maybe only one or two people voted for, so some fresh ideas may be something to look for :3

Soon enough we're going to run into the themes that maybe only one or two people voted for, so some fresh ideas may be something to look for :3 Probably. I also do think it's important to make sure that the collabs reflect everyone's current interests. However, these polls take a lot of work. Collecting ideas to vote upon, trying to get a wide variety of people to vote. Rabbit actually goes out to the Neoboards to collect votes and ideas as well, to make sure we're including as many people as we can. So the next poll would probably happen when the collab organizers have a decent chunk of time to pull it together. That said, the last poll took place in June 2016, so it's less than a year old, so it's probably still relevant enough for now. But yeah, I do agree that we don't want to get to the point of using up the crumbs.

After this collaboration issue, we'll aim to have a poll, but I figured this theme also had a lot of votes (and many interpretations). We're probably talking mid August? We shall see!
I'll do something for this one, but I have honestly no idea what yet, haha.
