View Full Version : Discussion Custom Name (poll to follow)
Memphus Feb 23, 2006, 09:58 PM Hey I figured I would set this up based on:
UN: Custom Name (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=160605)
So I am assuming we won't be broing and go with the default, and coem up with something creative, so after a discussion a poll can be created
Basically we need to decide on 4 things
Leader:
Civ Description:
Short Description:
Civ Adjective:
The exampel given by Regent Man in the above link is:
Leader: Bigfoot
Civ Description: Holliatarian Empire
Short Description: Holliataria
Civ Adjective: Holliatarian
So I'd be Bigfoot, leader of the Holliatarian Empire. My fellow Holliatarian citizens and I are proud members of Holliataria.
Memphus Feb 23, 2006, 10:02 PM Well Hmm I would like something along the following lines, butI don't really have a good leader name
Leader: ???
Civ Description: Epsilonian Illuminati
Short Description: Epsilonia
Civ Adjective: Epsilonian
Memphus Feb 23, 2006, 10:07 PM Hey I just though about it bit, the leader can be changed in game on a turn to turn basis... :hmm:
We could simply have whoever our current president is as our 'leader'
I dunno? :confused:
azzaman333 Feb 23, 2006, 11:44 PM Leader's name could be "Fearless Leader".
gbno1fan Feb 24, 2006, 12:55 AM @Memphus - When I first started reading this, I thought you were having a conversation with yourself! :lol:
Other than that, I like the idea of the president being listed as the current leader. :goodjob: Good idea.
fe3333au Feb 24, 2006, 01:02 AM Leader could be Cabal, else President could be nice
Memphus Feb 24, 2006, 12:46 PM @Memphus - When I first started reading this, I thought you were having a conversation with yourself! :lol:
I Tend to do that...:mischief:
Maybe I should run for two contradicting departments... :lol:
General_W Feb 24, 2006, 05:50 PM Civ Description: Epsilonian Illuminati
Short Description: Epsilonia
Civ Adjective: Epsilonian
I love all these!
For Leader Names, How About...
* Big Brother
* Inner Circle
I also like Fearless Leader & Cabal..
As a default... I think changing the leader name to match whoever is serving as our president is a fun idea.
lost_civantares Feb 24, 2006, 06:05 PM How about for Civ Adjective something like:
-"The Civilization of Fate"
-"The Fated Ones"
-"Those of doom"
fitting our mysterious and plotting theme?
peter grimes Feb 24, 2006, 10:19 PM For Leader Names, How About...
* Big Brother
* Inner Circle
Yes..!!
others:
-Your Conscience
-Available Evidence
but my favorite still remains Big Brother
classical_hero Feb 24, 2006, 10:42 PM Why not have our leader name as "The Leader"? Thanks to setting this up since I was not around for a few days.
fe3333au Feb 25, 2006, 06:04 AM What about Chosen One
azzaman333 Feb 25, 2006, 06:16 AM "Subliminal Message"???
lost_civantares Feb 25, 2006, 10:06 AM What about "Nameless One"?
With names like these we are just going to have to use spies!
peter grimes Feb 25, 2006, 11:36 AM So I'd be Bigfoot, leader of the Holliatarian Empire. My fellow Holliatarian citizens and I are proud members of Holliataria.
Leader: ???
Civ Description: Epsilonian Illuminati
Short Description: Epsilonia
Civ Adjective: Epsilonian
So I'd be He Who Sees All, leader of the Epsilonian Illuminati. My fellow Illuminati are proud members of Epsilonia.
Yet another suggestion for Leader name, and I think that Illuminati are the people, rather than Epsilonians. But I'd be fine with just about anything suggested so far :)
classical_hero Feb 25, 2006, 11:50 AM Remember The Leader knows all and sees all. He created lightning and just about everything.
fe3333au Feb 25, 2006, 08:06 PM We are certainly getting a good feel for our team already :evil: even before we have been assigned a civ.
Lets set a time limit to creativity (don't believe I wrote that :twitch: ) and then poll it.
azzaman333 Feb 25, 2006, 08:30 PM Homicidal Maniac could be interesting...
classical_hero Feb 26, 2006, 07:58 AM basically it seems we are just deciding the name. Mine is best because all we should do is just state that he is a leader and let the other teams guess what he does actually mean. Considering that we have a mysterious team name, we should have a mysterious leader name and nothing says that better than The Leader
peter grimes Feb 26, 2006, 11:27 AM I'm fine with The Leader
gbno1fan Feb 26, 2006, 11:31 AM Just so everybody knows, I've been quiet on this issue because I don't have an opinion. I'm fine with whatever is chosen.
Memphus Feb 26, 2006, 04:58 PM I'm also for going with the flow...on this issue ;)
I'll save my arguements for the game :crazyeye:
lost_civantares Feb 26, 2006, 07:59 PM The Leader (preferibly with thunder) does have something to it...
Memphus Feb 26, 2006, 11:44 PM well the 48 hours is up for creativity :p
I'll put up one poll for the leader name
Civ Description: Epsilonian Illuminati
Short Description: Epsilonia
Civ Adjective: Epsilonian
Seem to have gone over very well with one exception
the civ adjective got the follwing suggestions as well
-"The Civilization of Fate"
-"The Fated Ones"
-"Those of doom"
But didn't want to create a second poll and clutter our board so...:crazyeye: I guess you could jsut mention which civ adjective you wanted in the leader name poll :goodjob:
classical_hero Feb 27, 2006, 05:30 AM I really see no need to change what we already have. I see it as just an opinion as who is going be the name for the leader.
fe3333au Feb 27, 2006, 05:42 AM But it should be voted upon because we are a team ... and there is no I in team :lol:
Anyway ... I have already voted for The Leader because I agree with what you said, to me it fits the best for what we are developing :evil:
classical_hero Feb 27, 2006, 05:52 AM But it should be voted upon because we are a team ... and there is no I in team :lol:
Anyway ... I have already voted for The Leader because I agree with what you said, to me it fits the best for what we are developing :evil:
I keep telling you, I am The Leader. ;) :mischief:
If we were to change to the civ adjective, then the ret would have to flow with it. That is why I think it is best to go with what we already have, since it does flow with what we want as a team and that we really have not recieved a viable alternative to the rest of the custom name.
peter grimes Feb 28, 2006, 09:37 AM That is why I think it is best to go with what we already have
Please be more specific. What is are the current adjectives and other descriptors?
It's my understanding that The Leader has the weight of the majority behind it, and I also thought that these were generally approved:
Civ Description: Epsilonian Illuminati
Short Description: Epsilonia
Civ Adjective: Epsilonian
Am I mistaken?
