  • It's that time again... (name thread)

    K, there's a base name poll coming up, post your ideas here so you don't write-in and screw it up (that wouldn't be very healthy ).

        dammit, i suggested you use the names from that in your POLL, not for this thread!




        oh wait, this is a good thing. i no longer have to edit the name thread. thus the tradition of stealing name threads lives on

          My plan was to use it in the poll, but I saw that you had stolen the thread from the last guy so...

          I guess I'm gonna have to do some base location polls soon too... bah, and I just wanted to approve a bunch of rushes

                    That contained bases like Spamton-on-Fungus, where there was endlesss discussion on where to place and what to do with 'green' 'clean' 'four wheel drive' upgraded armoured rovers.

                          How about we delete any suggestions that have been polled and failed to get more than one vote? Might shorten that list a bit, and get some nice shiny new ones

                            btw, we've now fought our first conventional battle near Capricorn, so I move that we rename it to either mine or DBTS' suggestions of 'The Earth Plague' or 'End of Innocence'.

                            EDIT: That is, the tile that the battle took place on.

                              How about "Death by the Spoon" that's a nice name, I think we all agree.
