City names

[Spiffor]

As you probably know, we have many cities which have never been renamed, and are using the computer's default :

- Chartres
- Rheims
- New York
- Avignon (officially renamed Los Alamos)
- Dijon (to be kept)
- Heliopolis (officially renamed Ferropolis)
- Antioch
- Tarsus
- Susa (officially renamed El Duderino)
- Brundisium
- Also, our new city "Heroes' Summit" has a placeholder name, except if we want to keep it

Any ideas on how to rename these cities ? Current ideas so far are :

For Heroes' Summit : Equine Sacrifice - Cavalry City - Cavalry Memorial - Cavalcade - Heroes' Temple

For Dijon (if we really want to rename it) : Dejon - Mustardtown

In General : Skywalker - Yavin - Coruscant - Corellia - Jedi Temple - Trash Trip's Ass - Marcialis

Spiffor, you are right that I would mount a protest against the renaming of Dijon, but I also observe this democracies wishes. If the Senate votes to rename my beloved Dijon, I will concede. The original reason for leaving Dijon as it was can be found in this thread.

In the chat I had several suggestions for Heroes' Summit. They all revolved around the fact that we lost many brave cavalry in order to take the land:

-Equine Sacrifice
-Cavalry City
-Cavalry Memorial
-Cavalcade

How many times must this be brought up? Heliopolis was officially renamed Ferropolis by a Minister as their Minster choice almost 2 months ago. Why do people keep erasing the names of cities and renaming them over and over again?

Ghengis : I wasn't aware of this. I'll give the order to Arnelos in the next chat.

Does this mean thatI get to name a city soon?

MSS : at the beginning of the game, it was decided that ministers get to name a city first, then normal citizens get to name a city, picked at random. So YES, according to this rule, you get to name a city right now I think (except if other ministers didn't rename any city).
However, during the 2 months where I wasn't here, it seems the city naming has gone quite chaotic, so I don't know if this rule is still valid

For Heroes' Summit: Soldier's Temple (In that case, I'd suggest building a temple there ASAP )

Spiffor: I've been here on and off, and I don't bloody know what's going on with city naming

Oh, and I'd like to keep Dijon as is, in honor of dejon.

Thanks, you moved farther down the page on my "To Kill" list.

I think Dijon should be renamed "Mustardtown".

Has Avignon been renamed to Los Alamos yet? (This was also ordered over 2 months ago, but I believe that it still hasn't been renamed.)

We keep on forgetting to do these things. Spiffor, please do the renaming and repost the save, so that the orders are consistant with the proper names.

How about a city named after me?

Great avatar, Trip...

Thanks! I have to show off my doggy for a few days at least.

As stated, Heliopolis and Avignon were already renamed (twice, actually; once by ministers, a second time in this bill). Susa should be renamed El Duderino according to this bill (IIRC, Ghengis already put this in his orders. Must have slipped through like Avignon and Heliopolis).

And Dijon should remain Dijon. If you must rename it, name it Dejon.

As far as I'm concerned the city name should be, "I don't Give a **** or IDGS" or I DoG ****".

Anyway....that's my opinion.
