You know if we're going to go the in-joke route we may as well use haobese.com

the problem with that is it doesn't give the impression the site is going to be anything more than a forum.

This name is really interesting! It plays on the mind a little. It also speaks about critics. And it defines videogames has art!

I suppose you could do kingofgamers but that doesn't have quite the same vibe.

kingofplayers also doesn't give a very good vibe Sad

Maybe it would be a good idea to outline what the new site is going to be and try to find a name for that specific thing. Some might want it to be a forum, other want it to be a "forum and..." or "a site with ... and forum". Should it be similar to insert credit? Should it be insert credit 2?

Where lie the priorities? If you know those then you might have a name that reflects that. Then you can have a name that is catchy and attracts a certain kind of people. Or you can have a name for a community that has been a community for some time and appeals more to them than anyone else. Of course the name wouldn't have to reflect the site. Could be sarcastic. Whatever. Just...

I think there's some outlining to be done... but I'm not a very intuitive person.

Reading this thread I felt like not everyone is thinking in the same direction. That could be helpful to deciding on a name though! Otherwise it is truly hard to decide on creative things as a group.

That's really good. Clever but not annoying. And the reference to IC isn't so obvious that Brandon could not like it.

Someone said Cause and Effect earlier. Could be pointing in the right direction? Videogames are a study of cause and effect... well so is billiard (is it billard in English?) but they are more centere on psychological and philosophical themes. I think there might be a smart name in the realm of physics or psychology. Wouldn't look as gamey... which could be wanted or not.

The name needs to start with some sort of verb. You know, like Insert.

I like hardmode.com in the spirit zeitgeist of manning the fuck up, but it's not necessarily in the spirit zeitgeist of the forums.

I think I could live with enemied artist.

I like the plan of churning out more ideas, then having shaper or someone lock the thread after a couple of days to make a new poll with the best submissions.

it's a fire reference. He was a strange, engrishy poster from hong kong. That's what he called the people he played against in KoF, I think.

Game means you play video games, you're a gamer.
Press means you read/post stuff in the forum, you're a lurker.
Die means a lot of stuff in this context --» Interaction with the user.
