View Full Version : Our capital (Naming)
Dell19 Jul 16, 2002, 09:34 AM Well we have had several ideas and I have tried to pick most of them except for the Zulu ones since they have no real relevence, except that we killed them.
I am not going to include an other option as if someone does come up with a great idea they can post it and then if others like it then a new poll can be created.
Kev Jul 16, 2002, 09:44 AM I tried suggesting "Crater" or "Crater Lake" or something like that in the other thread, but I was too late and really only joking anyway.
However, I did try to sneak in the name "Centauri" since that was the target the ship was aimed for anyway. Ah well, I throw a vote at the choices listed.
:)
Dell19 Jul 16, 2002, 10:13 AM Well if someone else says they like them then the poll can easily be recreated.
mordhiem Jul 16, 2002, 10:14 AM Elysium just sounds so.....capital like.
starlifter Jul 16, 2002, 10:24 AM You mean the center of all modern civilization, Austin, is not a choice? ;)
anarchywrksbest Jul 16, 2002, 12:18 PM Regia Civitas - "The People's Capital" I keep telling you, this is the only option.
Leowind Jul 16, 2002, 01:09 PM Centauri, or even Alpha (the first) sound really good to me.
Zwelgje Jul 16, 2002, 01:14 PM Fanatica!
We should pay some respect to the forum we're posting at and name the capital after it. :)
anarchywrksbest Jul 16, 2002, 01:16 PM I think including Fanatica in our empire's name is tribute enough - Regius Civitas
MajorGeneral2 Jul 16, 2002, 03:15 PM Well, in the initial thread I think I suggusted Latin, since it has traditionally been used for this sort of thing in the Western world. Besides, Regius Civitas sounds neat, and actually means something, which is a plus.
Immortal Jul 16, 2002, 08:33 PM Elysium sounds the nicest
Ren Jul 17, 2002, 05:14 AM I like Alpha!
Dell19 Jul 17, 2002, 09:28 AM If it stays as close as this, I will start a new poll tomorrow with the two most popular options, as the voting could easily change.
starlifter Jul 17, 2002, 10:45 AM LOO, our first run off ;).
Huitzilopochtli Jul 19, 2002, 10:57 PM Regia Civitas is the best option,, it is elegant and meaningfull for a demo game
starlifter Jul 20, 2002, 04:20 AM Regia Civitas is leading 9-7 at this time :).
Dell19 Jul 20, 2002, 11:43 AM Looks like its 7-5 to me but I still think it would be a valuable exercise to re run the poll with just the two options.
anarchywrksbest Jul 20, 2002, 11:45 AM Ah come on Dell, my idea has clearly won by a HUGE margin...
BTW whose respsonsibility is it to collect the city names into a list, is the Domestic Advisor cause I would be willing to become the "Keeper of list of City Names" (now theres a catchy title)
Dell19 Jul 20, 2002, 11:51 AM Well even if its the domestic advisors job, you can make the list and then send it to him.
heliogabalus Jul 20, 2002, 01:05 PM I think there is a number of people who haven't voted on this poll yet (22 votes in the other polls vs. 19 here). So second place is not really decided yet. I also think the additional ideas (like "Crater Lake") should be included in a "revamped and enlarged" version of this poll, as dell said in his first and third post. I hope I'm not too late for this to be technically possible...
Dell19 Jul 20, 2002, 01:37 PM The problem is that I've made the poll now. If a third person says they would have voted for Crater Lake then I'll start a new poll but there is little point starting a new one now when the two leading options have at least 5 votes each.
heliogabalus Jul 20, 2002, 02:56 PM IF the 3 missing votes were to completely go to either Metropolis or Valhalla, we'd have a tie for second place. But as I posted in the new city thread, there'll be more cities to name, so I accept it as it is.
