As we continue to expand the MUD, both in coding and building, we've realized that the world of Project BoB needs a name. The MUD itself will still be known as Project BoB, but we feel that the world itself needs a name. So, we're going to have an open call to everyone to give us suggestions as to what the world will be named.

First off, please don't post them in notes as we expect (hope) that there will be a multitude of suggestions. Instead, please post all suggestions in this thread

After a while, we'll post a note here and in the forum letting everyone know that we'll be closing the suggestions soon. After that, we'll pick the ones that seem to fit the best and we'll have a poll for people to vote on their favorite name. We may or may not use any of the names but will give Unique Gem prizes to the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place names picked in the poll.

Here are a few rules on picking names:
1. Be tasteful, nothing obcene or derogatory.

2. Be original, Earth, Alpha Centauri, Kronos, Chulak, Arrakis, Z'ha'dum, Sebacea, Omicron Persei 8, Gallifrey and Dagobah are not acceptable names. If you use a name that is from a book, movie or TV show, someone will know it. :)

3. Try to come up with a name that has a fantasy 'feel' to it.

Other than that, any names you can come up with are great and we look forward to reading them.

Alright, this thread has withered a little so maybe an update will help. The contest is still open but here is the list of names that might be considered (sorry, no Jennaland, but I did like the two latin ones :) )

Scopursia
Fortifast
Galden
Pandopan
Lopperroth
Fangegrit
Grandland
Bystania
Arne
Rhald
Taladia
Endemia
Satus
Donutus
Irlandia

These are just the ones that were posted that aren't silly and that I think are pretty good, just my opinion though.

Of course, Donutus is very much in the lead.

My best idea yet...

The world name should simply be: O

Just think of all the implications, it's simple, it's a donut while not being a donut, it is full and empty at the same time...an infinite and eternal ring, that sustains and devours itself...blah blah blah...and it would work well if parallel/shadow realms come into fruitition

Okay, this is going to be the last call for this thread. After Noon on Saturday (Central) No more submissions for the name of the world. I'm giving everyone a couple more days so that new people can post their ideas. I'll put together the list on Saturday and we'll either vote or the imms will decide. Most likely, we'll narrow it down and then let people vote.

Come up with a few more good ones everyone!!
