That's part of the reason why I originally liked Community Patch and Overhaul Project. Has Community, Patch, and Overhaul, thus it captures exactly what the project does without sounding pretentious. Also it's one vowel switch away from helping with asthma (CPAP).

LEGAL DISCLAIMER: This Patch does not, in any way, ease and/or cure the effects of asthma or asthma-related symptoms. If you continue to have trouble breathing after using this mod, please consult a physician.

You could go with Kommunity Patch and Overhaul Project or KPOP for short

All jokes aside, CP and CBP work perfectly fine. The CPP term was the one that tripped me up when I first started coming here.

Or just go with a simple Civilization 5.5 (or, if you prefer the Latin, Civilization V.V)

Not really, Communitas was the change made to GEM which in turn was VEM.
People get on board really quickly with these things, all that ultimately matters is the mods get installed and the forum remains intact. Both of those things won't be adversely affected.

Which is why I suggested BEM or Brave new world Enhancement Mod, but apparently that wasn't a very popular option

Lots of fine discussion here, everyone. I've come to two conclusions based on this discussion:

1.) The new title should not deviate far from the existing title, for the sake of clarity.
2.) It should not be too obscure.

As such, I think the safest options are as follows:

Rename the Community Patch Project as the Community Patch and Overhaul Project.

Components:

• Community Patch stays the same.
• Community Balance Patch becomes the Community Balance Overhaul

Descriptive, similar enough to existing names, and avoids the existing issue surrounding the CBP including the word 'patch.'

Overhaul is better than "patch", yes, but I feel the full name is still too "technical" and verbose. It's hard to assimilate words that don't have any strong thematic information in them, and "com-mu-ni-ty-ba-lan-ce-o-ver-haul" takes a while to say.

 

[Valvts]

1-2! I like 'Reborn' though :O

 

[Tomahawk.nsk]

As a newbie, it took me a long time to get used to these names )) CP, CBP, CPP - I could not understand what is it means
My choice: 2

But CBO is as easy to say as CBP. Of course, the CPP will become the CPOP, but that term doesn't get used as much as the other two.

Yes, overhaul feel really technical. In fact, as a non native english speaker, I've learn this term with this thread.

A solution :

• Community Patch stays the same
• Community Balance Patch becomes the Community Balancing
• Community Patch Project becomes the Full Community Project

In my opinion this is a pretty clear case of the name not being stand out or different enough to actually be worth making a switch.
You're going to confuse people slightly at no actual benefit.

I think you're actually going to have to remove the word "Community" to actually make the change feel worth it. And no, this is not me wanting to take the community part out of the project, this is me echoing JFD saying that 'Community' is a bad word.

can we please call it "Balance of Power"?

keeps the acronym, integrates the balancing aspect, easy to remember.

what's not to like?

Community Balance of Power? Not bad. I could dig it. Still going to change the whole title of the project to CPOP though.

I like Balance of Power.
It has the Expansion feel, it's accurate, it keeps the acronym.

Just salty over this anti-roman sentiment. Ave, Gazebo. Morituri te salutant.

 

[Sun Pope]

Maybe we could come up with a faction name. The tigers. Or how about the Anti-Tigers? Ooh I know, the Anti-Anti-Tigers. I could go all day

What I'm worrying about with Balance of Power, is that it is too close to the other civ modpack called Community Call to Power and also the JFD modpack Rise to Power.

I mean if we are going full Expansion on this there are plenty of cool-sounding words we can use, especially if we don't care about them properly describing the project.




Also if the project is going to be disconnected from the name of the modpack, I really do think there is more merit to keeping the CPP name for that.

How about Community Patch: PROJECT Overhaul

or CPP: Overhaul

or just PROJECT: Overhaul
