The forum is called Mallory's because they didn't ask me to name it.

And what would you have named it if they had asked you?

Oh, a change is coming, feel these doors now closing

I would have called it "Wonderpickle's Fantasmagorical Fun Factory!"

No wait "Galactic Overlord's Inter-dimensional Amusements and Microcosmic Cartwheel Emporium".

No, maybe "You can't handle the games!" I can't believe I just wrote that.

Er, "Show me the Games!" I'm so embarrassed.

Ugh..."I feel the need, the need for Games!" I feel sick...

No, actually "Do I look to be in a gaming mood?!"



Naw, in reality I would have named it "Socks!"

That could catch on. I rather liked "Galactic Overlord's Inter-dimensional Amusements and Microcosmic Cartwheel Emporium," but you know it'd end up being shortened to GOIAMCE, or even GOIDAMCE, which sounds a little vulgar and/or insulting, which might not be a turn-off for some of the regulars, but it could make recruitment difficult.

GOIDAMCE eh?

Yeah you are right it has a bad ring to it.

How about Commander Overthruster's Omnifantastic Laser League or COOLL for short? Naw.

"Socks!" it is.

I kind of like "Socks" as well. As a name, it makes me feel warm and fuzzy. :hearts:

"In Pursuit of Random Amusement" probably didn't poll well.

Thanks, aTOMiC! The name sums it up, methinks.

Actually the reason this forum is called In Pursuit of Mallory is because Dreamworks was taken.
