Re: Vote on a name.
 
I don't know what it means, I don't know where it came from, and I don't know if I'll ever actually get into online gaming (OK, when I get an xbox I probably will)...

But Pole Huskers stands out as far superior from the rest...

Not only is it simply a great name, but Cowboys, Ninjas, pirates, and references to "pwn" are a dime a dozen...
Pole Huskers?... mmYep...

Re: Vote on a name.
 
I think you got a good point DH. But then again, pretty much any clan name we come up with will seem trite and like it's been done a million times. Once it becomes an acronym, it doesn't really matter anymore.

Maybe we can do a theme clan name instead, something a little less obvious then putting an acronym at the front of our names, but after people look at the group of names a little bit, it will click in their heads and they will get that "Oh, I get it!" feeling like they solved a puzzle.

Like we all use fruit names, e.g. kiwiDeathsHand, dragonfruitProfessorS, figMrCoffee, avocadoAngrist, etc. (or perhaps just the fruit names)

Or we all use band names. beckTyphoid, rhcpMrCoffee, britspearsProfessorS :p

Or sports team names. Or something like that.

We should do a reservoir dogs type of deal, Mr.green, pink, blonde, etc.

We seem to be pretty indecisive when it comes to picking this name...

I was thinking maybe we could do "The Core"... sort of like what Osama did with "The Base"... :sneaky:

Wait, what does "The Core" stand for or mean? COR is cowboys of rhetoric, but The Core? It doesn't mean anything. Or does it just sorta sound cool?

Re: Vote on a name.
 
Well, Core, which could also be The Core, could refer to Cowboys of Rhetoric.

Doesn't seem like we're coming to any consensus... let's try a new poll.
