Well, we now have two new provinces. One for the Chineese island that will soon include all the former Chineese cities, ie Bejing, Shanghai, Nanking, Canton and Tsingtao. There is also room for a new city west of Tsingtao.

The other is for the Dover continent, including Dover, Marl Downs, Cambridge, Ormuz and Brighton. Oxford and Leeds (north-east of Oxford) are likely to be included in the near future.

The only thing left is to decide on the names. A few were mentioned in the other thread by Kev and me, so those are the ones included in the poll options. (Feel free to bash me if you prefer other names :) )

So, what are those names going to be?
 
Triton sounds cooler than Io, so I better Triton. (surprise!)

We are, Triton and Europa are both moons, don't worry. ;)
 
With the imminent founding of Renmark and doubtless a city to commemorate elibb's contributions to the game should he decide to stay, then we will also be running out of names for our cities. We could just name them according to their geographical locations, but I think it'd be good to use the usernames of some of the older members (or even the more popular members) for future cities we found. Maybe:
stormerne's eyrie,
Enchanter's isle,
War Academy,
Smashton,
Starlifter's a good name for a city on its own,
Hordeville (or just crush Mongolia in his memory),
Chesterton (or would GK prefer Spamtown? It does sound like a town though :)),
Valdez,
Kobiton (where the kobbits live ;)),
Blabjergen (sp?)
and Blue Montana.

Feel free to suggest any more if I've missed someone you feel ought to be there. Darkshade maybe deserves a mention, but it seems as though our friend mr bond will not be garnering an honour (unless we've got a spare engineer just before the SS lands :lol:).
 
Heh ,nice proposition's duke. ;)

I would wan to bring in a motion to rename a few city's that are to username like.For ex. the city's of Sixchan ,Cornmaster ,Spycatcher ,Joespaniel etc. .We should give it something extra to make it more city like ,like "Port Cornmaster" ,"Sixchan city" ,"Spyburg" ,SpanielGrad" ,thing's like that..

and we can always name a few more city's after duck's. :D ;)

duke - It has been my every intention to do something like this should I have the opportunity in the future (i.e. I'm still president). Still should name cities for Ren, Elibb, and Civ-1, but then I was going to start with other famous/infamous members of CFC.

This is how Thunder Falls came about.

I like your thoughts a lot! Others could include:

Bond in Hand
Shadowdale (pretty much a town name on its own)
Kraftwerks Folly
Old Mig
Pale Horse
Darkshade

Also, I could look back at some of the first posts that were going on to see if there are any "founding fathers" that we may wish to "honor".
 
I like Europa and Triton, but is Triton really a moon? Where?

As for city names:

Bond HQ

Starlifter (yes I know it's been said)

Pella....wait there's already one :D

Azland

PaleStable76

Lefton

The Well (Ohwell)

Stupid Computer (Matrix) ;)

Cappland

Darkshady

Will keep thinking...

There wasn't a poll originally, or they merged a previous thread into this one as at the time I didn't see a poll.

Trition is one of the moons of Neptune. I listed all of the moon names from Jupiter to Pluto in the discussion thread on new provinces.

I posted this poll separately, to speed the name-making up a little. The other thread is still around. (There is a link in my first post in this thread.) :)
