Maybe a country- specific version of Fanaticia?

(Fr instance, if we are the Netherlands, it would be something netherlandish)

So, post ideas & discuss. :)

Maybe we should be Fanatissue? :p

"CivFanatics, CivFanatic, CivFanatics" seems most appropriate to me...

Not bad at all. :)


BTW, why did you post two times in the citizen registry thread? ;)

A bit more serious maybe?

Do we know the mayan language? Didn't they only have some hieroglyphs or something? They were extinct even before the Europeans came to America...

I dunno. I think CivFanatic, CivFanatican, etc sounds good enough.

Civ Fanazuma. :p If we are the Maya, that is.

I still prefer my suggestion, but then with a small adjustment: CivFanatica, CivFanatic, CivFanatics.

You might think it's plain, but it should be plain IMO. It's much more fun when that name is so easily recognizable. Also much more stately...grand...noble...dignified. ;) "Fear the biggest fan site of Civilization III!" While "Civ Fanatazuma" can be laughed at (no offence :o).

I actally also think those are good ideas.

Well, maybe the "Civ"- part could be taken away, so it would be Fanatica, Fanatic, Fanatics? Nah, doesn't sound so good.

IMHO Matrix' idea is good. :)

Matrix makes a good point. Although I am quite used to Fanatica in the SPDG, I see no reason why we cannot carry it over to the ISDG.

Although, Civ Fanatazuma is pretty funny. :lol: We should put this up for vote in a bit.

side note: Matrix, hang in there..... I am going to try and organize this forum sometime this week. I also plan on keeping an eye on the UN Forum to make sure that everything going on there is getting back here. I don't think that is happening at the moment.

Ankka
