  • Customization of our Civ

    We now know the name of our team, but we don't know yet what our glorious country and its inhabitants will be named, how we should call our intemporal leader etc.

    This thread is intended to list ideas on how to call most customization elements of our Civ. If there are too many ideas, the polls will only feature seconded ideas (it's possible to second several ideas)

    Current ideas so far:

    Civilization
    Legoland

    Noun
    Legolians
    Legomen

    Adjective
    Legolian
    Legolish
    Lego

    Title
    Head Engineer
    Master Builder
    Lego Master
    Wise
    Master Architect

    Leader name
    Jack Hammer
    Legos the Wise
    The Maker

    Great Leaders
    Capsella
    Construx
    Tinker
    Lincoln Log
    Mechano

    Here are my ideas. Some of them are pretty lame, but I wanted to find something for each category, so that there is at least one idea everywhere.

    Civilization : Legoland
    Noun : Legolians
    Adjective : Legolian
    Title : Head Engineer
    Leader : Jack Hammer

    We might also look for names reguarding our great leaders

      Most of those sound pretty good, Spiffor. Here's my take...

      Civilization: Legoland
      Noun: Legolians
      Adjective: Legolish
      Title: Master Builder (or Lego Master. Anyone else every heard of those guys?)
      Leader: Legos the Wise, The Maker, etc...

      Great leaders... Hmm... why not stick with the theme?
      -Capsella
      -Construx
      -Tinker
      -Lincoln Log
      -Any other construction based toy you can think of...

      "Our Legolish Archer has produced a great leader, Construx!"

        ZargonX !
        I especially like the leader name you found : "Legos the Wise" rules ! I'd suggest the tile is "Wise", and the name is "Legos".

        Also, as a leader name, we could have "Mechano"

        Edit : I've misspelled "name" as "lame" (especially stupid mistake since I love the name Legos )

          I would leave just Lego as the adjective, so you get: "Our Lego archer has produced a GL" (highly unlikely BTW).

          As a noun, how about LEGOMEN?

          As a title: ... MASTER ARCHITECH

            Also, posting on private forums DOES increase our postcount

              Not really fussed about the customization, I'll go with whatever everyone decides!

                No, but many people here would probably like a custom avatar, and I'm happy to know private forums let them progress in this direction
                (Now that I have my custom avatar, I don't really care)

                  Well, I was thinking that we may want to rename the governmental positions to keep with the theme of our team. So, here's some proposals:

                  Labor Minister: Chief Engineer
                  Interior Minister: Master Builder
                  Budget/Science Minister: xxxx the Enlightened
                  Defense Minister: Military Architect

                  What do you all think?

                    Good idea
                    I don't think your suggestions can be made better

                      Hey all, I put a possible custom leaderhead for us up on the public forums! Head over and take a look under the "custom leaderheads" thread!

                      Like I said, some old legos+a digital camera=fun!

                          What about the title of "His Brickness" for our leader?

                          Legolians or Legolese for the noun, Lego for the adjective. I'd probably prefer "Lego I." for the leader name (it's kinda strange whe you finish the game and Lego the Wise becomes Lego the Wise the Magnificent... "the Wise" or whatever should be earned, not given in advance).
