Ryan Greenberg Posted March 2, 2011 Report Posted March 2, 2011 (edited) I took all the names that had at least 25 votes in the [url="http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=98422"]original thread[/url] and put them on here. Added the 'DisOrder War' too. The PB-NpO and Doomhouse-NPO Wars are rather bland names, so if you got any suggestions, post them here and I'll add them on if they're popular enough. Go vote!

[/quote] At the moment there is no good alternate name. There is none that can be. For a name to be official people have to use it, and no one's using names for this war outside of this topic with any degree of consensus. Quote
DictatatorDan Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 [color="#FF0000"]ByePolar War is the catchiest. Everything.Must.Die War is contrived. Adding "War" to the end of it sounds stupid. "Neville" makes absolutly no sense. Its just a !@#$%* battle cry that STA used while we were beating down their upper tier. CN Holocoust would fit if someone was actually disbanding, or if it actually lasted 6 months without NPO's coalition hiding in peacemode. DisOrder war is just another terrible, ill-fitting pun. Raman Mew Mew War is just an awful name for a war. Great comic though. I would call it "Polar Stomping Day 2011" in the hopes it would become an annual CN holiday/festival[/color] Quote

Lord Brendan Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 Why do people continue to hold these polls? Just go with what other people are calling it, and gradually everyone will gravitate to one or two names. PB-NpO and DH-NPO seem good enough when referring to the separate conflicts/fronts, and EMD War seems like a nice, quick, somewhat relevant short name. CN Holocaust is too generic and Bye Polar War can't be abbreviated easily without confusing it with the Bi-Polar War. DisOrder is also pretty generic. Quote
Hereno Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 If a name doesn't come about on it's own, it shouldn't get a name. Sometimes, it's okay for a war to just be named after the combatants. At the very least, can we let the war finish before we try to slap a stupid, unfunny name onto it? Quote
Lord Brendan Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 (edited) [quote name='Enrage' timestamp='1299129789' post='2650807'] How about [b]War of the Orders[/b]? [/quote] That [i]definitely[/i] won't be confused with the other 7 global wars that the Orders have both fought in. GW1 and WotC would be all that came to mind for me if I saw that name used.

Shodemofi-NPO Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 [quote name='Ninja Colt' timestamp='1299132300' post='2650872'] PB-NpO and DH-NPO are perfect. [/quote] This. The name of this war won't be determined by this poll, it will be determined by what people use on their own. This poll isn't going to change anyone's opinion. Quote

KainIIIC Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 Bonfire of Hypocrisies has a nice ring to it, as it perfectly explains this war. Quote

Prime minister Johns Posted March 5, 2011 Report Posted March 5, 2011 [quote name='lordliam' timestamp='1299119850' post='2650452'] I don't even get what the whole deal with Raman Mew Mew is. [/quote] Well in my nation we have Mew Mew Ramen, it is noodles with extra fish cakes. But I doubt this has anything to do with this war. (the noodles are very nice and have a miso broth that is very nourishing) (IRL: I actually did make this today, so I recommend it.) But the only name that seems to fit out of the rather limited selection is the CN holocaust, But this is only because the rest are bland or are just silly. I will never refer to a war as Neville.

Gavik Posted March 5, 2011 Report Posted March 5, 2011 (edited) EMD War. "Everything.Must.Die." is the defining line of the DH-NPO war. Anything to do with hypocrisy is just Orders propaganda. Alliances change over time. Shouldn't apply to the PB-NpO front, though. Edited March 5, 2011 by Gavik Quote
