Good point there. Most of the themes, especially recent ones, are centered
around violence.Pirates v. Islanders/Imperial Guards. Good knights v. bad
knights. The whole wild west theme was centered on a good guy/bad guy

Throwbots battling each other. Cyber Slam. A little violence is ok. But when
practically all themes are based on violence, that's when it's time to shape
up and get some more non-violent themes in.
