      c.  Unit Names
          The [B]President (or appointee)[/B] will utilize the unit naming
          preferences within the Citizen Registry thread to rename
          all military units.  [B]Unit names to be used will be included in
          the TCIT.
          1. Naming Convention - Unit names will include a unit type 
              designation.  If the citizen did not include an appropriate 
              type then one will be added by the DP.  Ex: "Spice Raider" is
              designated in the Citizen Registry, so the DP will name it:
              "MDI - Spice Raider".
          2. Ease of Game Play - We will go through the citizen registry
              only one time to get unit names.  Once we have gone 
              through the list any new citizens will be added to the next
              built unit.  Also, any citizen whose named unit no longer 
              exists may request from the President (or designate) to 
              have a new unit named with their choice.
          3. Renaming Existing Units - After upgrades the DP may rename
              units as appropriate at the next convienent time.  Any
              existing units not following these naming conventions may
              also be renamed by the DP as appropriate at the next
              convienent time.

Only naming units one time through? That'll take some of the uniqueness out of this DemoGame.

Great that unit types are added to the names. Keeping track of what is where is quite impossible now. I am also happy CoAF is no longer responsible for this.

To pass a minimum of 13 votes must be cast, and 55% or more yes votes. Note that time for this vote has not expired, just posting the info on what it will need to pass.
