Re: Ideas Are Easy
It looks like your browser must interpret that emoji differently, for me it's a coiled-up, green snake. I suspect my browser also doesn't quite match the poster's however, as the middle emoji for the Halloween scenario looks to be a wheel of cheese, which I don't really associate with Halloween.

Re: Ideas Are Easy
It's a few decades into the Fourth Age of Middle Earth, and the PCs are orcs and/or men in Eastern Mordor trying to carve out a new life unshackled from Sauron's influence while not getting slaughtered by the armies of Gondor. (An assumption here is that orcs are, somehow, not irredeemably evil.)

Still, the male symbol is confusing. To me, the middle Halloween one is the moon.

Re: Ideas Are Easy
The emoji's made me suspicious, and a recent bit of thread-necromancy moreso - I believe the poster may be a more evolved species of spambot than we typically see.
I thought that, but for me the coloration of it is light orange with darker orange craters, which made me think of cheese. Of course, considering the moon is famously made of cheese, perhaps it's really the same difference.

Re: Ideas Are Easy
Depends on the device/browser. I see a clear moon on Android Firefox, cheese wheel on another.

I hope it's just a genuine poster with a slightly odd text style (come back, we won't bite), but it could be one of those "make a few innocuous posts to get through any probationary period then start spamming links until banned" sort of bots.

Re: Ideas Are Easy
Those are just the ideas I posted in the first post decorated with emojis.

Re: Ideas Are Easy
The text is modified slightly (mostly just slight rearrangement), but yeah. I think it's a bot trying to establish a presence before switching into a spam-bomb.

Re: Ideas Are Easy
Personally, I think it looks like the minimalist dragon from the old Atari 2600 game Adventure.

Re: Ideas Are Easy
Thanks to RayanW for pointing out this was a reprocessed version of the OP. Deleted raistopley as a spammer.
