Capital name III

[grant2004]

I know there were a number of people that spoke out against the speed of the last poll, however the citizen's initiative requires that this sort of poll operate on majorities, not pluralities, it also mandates runoffs in order to reach a majority decision.

Because none of the options (including none of the above) reached majority status another vote is required.

Also I would like to suggest that we change the citizen's initiative, we should modify it such that plurality decisions are acceptable, in this way we can select names without endless run-off, as seems to be happening here, and if none of the choices are acceptable a return to discussion will occur sooner. However that's a different discussion.

The poll will last 3 days and there will be no run-off after this one, either we'll have a name or we'll have followed the initiative and can return to discussion.

I hope we'll keep voting none of the above until the game is finished

None of the above till the end of the game? That would drive me insane I'm sure. I hope we get this sorted out sometime before then. Heck we're about to found the second city we're going to have to name that one too eh?

Send it back to discussion.

I agree! I'm actually growing rather fond of None of the Above as the actual name of our capital.

 

[robboo]

I will propose "None of the above" as our capital...lets get a second and use it.

I second it.

It'd be an interesting poll, as we'd have two options labelled "None of the Above".

 

[dutchfire]

I'd would have to be without spaces though, I believe that a cities name can only have 15 characters.

 

[GeorgeOP]

That was going to be my suggestion when it went back to discussion. "None of Above" -13 characters

how bout Noni Abova for our capital's name...it looks latin and old...and is a cameo to none of the above

 

[grant2004]

I could definitely support none of the above, or a derivative, as a city name, tribute to our grand and infallible polling process

Yah! Count me in!

But seriously, unless a group of people push and vote for a name, our capital will end up being called None of Above

Man, what is the Elder's and Chieftian's view on this?

 

[robboo]

NOTA (acronym city ) Its time to put some humor in this game.

 

[DaveShack]

I think we're but will accede to the people's decision.

 

[Shattered]

I think its a great idea. This name symbolizes the true spirit of democracy, indecision.

Hehe, I second NOTA, if None of the Above wins, we'll end up refering to our capital as this anyway so why not make it the name.

 

[FeedBack]

Changed my mind also. None of the above is a very good city name!

 

[GenMarshall]

Is this going to be the game of beaurocracy now?

 

[grant2004]

It looks pretty clear, based on previous turnout, that this poll is going for none of the above so I'll open up the new thread now, I'll include the suggested city names from this thread.

P.S.

Dave, that is the most amazing emoticon ever

will it include Noni Abova?

note that the itallic letters are important because it gives the names a more latin look...old and antique.
