Well, there's no rules against the judge reusing past themes, only that the participants can't reuse characters. Eventually we are going to run out of themes that work for the contest and we'll have to reuse one; and besides, as he said. Only two people actually participated despite there being a lot of interest (myself being one of those very interested parties who had a lot of shit happen that meant she couldn't complete her entry).

There's also new participants that weren't around for the very early themes, so to them it is a new one. Only Maki, myself, Vedran and Phantom have actually particpated in the contests from the very beginning. Someone, Arkantos, Ahpolki, Ray, Sentry, Mintshade, Cyrania, they've all joined at later dates and so wouldn't have made characters based on the early theme. To them it is new.
