Alright, the private poll is finished. As you can tell from the title, the new name will be "Rise from Erebus", receiving 8 votes. Second place was "Epic Fall", with 4. ;)

Thank you 2Hydroclopse, for proposing the new name! :goodjob:

Expect the name change (and possibly a few other things) within a few days. ;)


Each participant in the poll was given two votes, and could split them or vote both the same as they saw fit.

Those who voted:


LemonJelly
GreyFox
Vermicious
Cyther
PL
Xienwolf
Iceciro
Opera
Myself

Those who didn't respond by the deadline:


Odalrick
TC01
Vehem


As you can see, everyone in the list is a modder. :lol: It's also a small group, so any name had the chance of winning. ;)

That 'few other things' has been announced. ;)

I was just waiting on permission from Vehem or Xienwolf. :lol:

I hereby propose that the acronym should be:

R i f E

I think R i f E will be the official acronym, yes. ;)

Cool. Exactly what font is that?

Valkrionn
Oct 26, 2009, 07:32 PM
Palatino Linotype in bolded italic. ;)

Well, looks like it has been moved. ;)

Now you just have to rename some Threads like the Bug Thread or start a new one.

Yep, got a request in for that already. ;)

I also need to change the name in the RifE background... Currently says Fall Further Plus.

And the background art for the ModDB site, but that's a symptom of the same issue. :lol:

i love the RifE acronym :D

Caution: this mod is RifE with things to trip over.

Fall from Heaven, Rise from Erebus... does that put you someplace suborbital? Flying promotion for all!

I do like the name though.

Still, V's signature block could still be bookended with :eekdance: 's I'd like to think!

It could, but it looks odd with that font. :lol:

Do it Valk, you know you want to.

R if E?

So can we imply:

Q if C?

Valkrionn
Oct 27, 2009, 06:18 PM
Assuming a single letter drop, I'd suppose you mean Q if D? ;)

not to mention S if F (mabye... I'm not entirely sure what Xien just did, so...)

xienwolf

What Xienwolf did is his usual spouting of random items small enough that working minds can THINK it has meaning. I grabbed letters at random, and haven't a clue what either of your two mean at all :)

R if E - number of letters between R and E would correlate with Q if D. Same thing with S if F.
What these dudes did was basically shift both letters one location to either the left or right direction of the alphabet.

That's why your two letters, albeit random, caused these responses. Since you were only 1 location off with your C.

Valkrionn

Pretty much, yes. Your letters were close enough that I didn't know if it was random or if you made a mistake. :lol:

Hrm... hadn't even realized I stayed so near alphabetically. Q just happened to be in my mind, and D was what a random punch of the keyboard yielded :)
