TARDIS Guide Advent Calendar Interest Polls and Discussion

Hello! I was thinking it might be a fun idea to have an online advent calendar in the forum for everyone to enjoy! However, it would help me if I got a better sense of what people might want from the Advent Calendar. One of the requirements of my Advent Calendar is that the items involved would be free to access, so that we could all save ourselves some money.
The Advent Calendar idea is mostly inspired by the Doctor Who Adventure Calendars that were created for promotional purposes a few years ago. Adventure Calendar - Tardis Wiki
I would like to read the short stories from them, and I am wondering if other people might like to as well. However, it might be fun to have a few different types of items in the calendar. The calendar would hopefully start on December 1st, and look something like this:

Today's Date

Today’s item.

Help me brainstorm some ideas, and then I will add polls to solidify things a bit later.

How should the advent calendar be organized?

  • All 24 items should be in one thread, so that it is easy to find.
  • Each item should have its own thread, so it is easy to discuss.

24 pictures of Colin Baker?

A picture or two of Colin Baker might be nice to have, but I think some people on this forum would get tired of seeing him every day.

We could have a new tag for it :thinking:

My tip is to use # and a space to mark each day. Then you get a headline

I don’t know if this is too lame but someone who is good with photoshop could do a spot the difference :thinking:
