  • An honorary city for Vel

    Thus far the consensus seems to be re-naming Inchon, and later naming a new or captured city on Lego "New Inchon".

    The greatest delight for man is to inflict defeat on his enemies, to drive them before him, to see those dear to them with their faces bathed in tears, to bestride their horses, to crush in his arms their daughters and wives.

    Um, it just occurred to me that although the play on words is cute, "No-Vel" might be a bad idea.

      I missed the chance to suggest a name, so I'm going to vote for Velociryx City (which I think sounds better than Velociryxville, but that's just me). If that's too late, then I go for Velocity.

        I like Velocity the best.

        The trick isn't to break some eggs to make an omelette, it's convincing the eggs to break themselves in order to aspire to omelettehood.

          If and when we get this city & rename it, it would be cool to take a screenshot (appropriately redacted, of course, to hide any really useful info) and post it in the "get well" thread in the OTF.

            Once there is a decision on a name, renaming the city can be done the next turn... and everybody agrees Inchon is the target, I think.

            I don't really want to name an other city New Inchon, unless it has the same srtategy behind it: depriving Lego from resources. It would be perfect if we could cut them off from their rubber like this... in which case New Inchon suits that city well

              I see that Vel has post in his forum today, so that is a good sign.

                Where did Vel post?

                And does anyone have a direct email addy for him? Jesse Smith at Firaxis wants to send him his best.

                  Velocity is good. I hope that he sees the thread...
                  You just wasted six ... no, seven ... seconds of your life reading this sentence.

                    You can see the post date of today at 7:19 in the Candle'Bre. Either that or someone used his account. It is a private posting, so I cannot see it.

                      That's probably Gill, a friend of his, using his log-in ( girlfriend?).

                      Ask him to post in the OT thread too. I'll dig up Vel's mail.

                          Velocity is good. I only threw out Velociryxville as an example.
