It pretty much needs to have a wide range of appeal, while not being a clone of something that's already been done. This means that it probably shouldn't be way off in left field like Spelljammer or Darksun, and yet shouldn't be homogonized fantasy like the Forgotten Realms. Chances are that they want something that is pretty well developed already, much like the Forgotten Realms was when the bought it from Ed Greenwood - meaning that you may have a really cool original idea, but it might not make the cut because you haven't fleshed it out enough.The other thing to remember is that they are fishing for really cool and original ideas. This isn't a contest. I'm pretty sure that if an employee or group of employees were to come up with the idea they use for the next campaign setting, then they would go that route and award them appropriately. The great thing about this is that there is now an open door for the submission of ideas to WotC. This could prove to be as signifficant to a lucky new developer as all of the open doors in the D20 industry.</blockquote>
