    In the sense of fair, at least from my view, GnT got to choose the server, so SE++ gets to name the FC. That seems only fair to me

    yes

    also i don't see whats inside jokey or exclusionary about lalafell/falafell house, its a play on words based off a popular kinda-shitty chain

    I like omega hair or hare whatever you want to call it.

    Seriously, Yoshi-P gotta add a butt slider to this damn character creator.

    I also cast my vote for Omega Hare.

    So we get stiff once in a while. So we have a little fun. What’s wrong with that? This is a free country, isn’t it? I can take my panda any place I want to. And if I wanna buy it a drink, that’s my business.

    I can get behind that.

    ...and when you are done with that; take a folding
    chair to Creation and then suplex the Void.

    se++ could have a problem with it as it invokes the same problem many of them/us had with WANG, which was "dumb penny arcade comic joke"

    Omega Hares also kind of fits in with that cutscene that showed the "leaders" standing on a cliff during the big fight where Dalamud exploded and Bahamut came out. They were referring to various military units and they were all named for some sort of animal. So to me it sounds like a likely name for a group in that world.

    Kind of, but at least it's a reference to Final Fantasy. I thought that SE++ had a problem with the juvenile penis reference thing? I didn't know it was an issue with referencing PA at all.

    The only reason I don't really care for the WANG thing is that it is just overplayed. (Ironically The Oosiks is a dick reference but it's obscure enough to still be funny/clever :) )

    Omega Hare references FFXI which I think is a neat throwback for a FFXIV guild, it's less about PA (Where the wang thing is definitely PA) and more about the difficulty of FFXI and how the game has changed since then. I men we could call it 'Deadly Ladybug' for the same meaning (Although Omega Hare sounds cooler ;) )

    Just my thoughts.

    omega hare seems primarily supported by g&t however, and though i don't know what kind of numbers we are working with w/r/t number of people from gt vs se++ we could have a situation where gt decided the server and then also the FC name

    I can solve this. Let's make it a FF thing.

    Silly Hume, Mithra are for Men

    Short: Manthra

    If that's too long, maybe:

    Real Men Play Mithra

    @Robes I have almost 30 that have shown interest in playing and around 10 that show siginificant interest. so lets say between 5-30. They will be ok if its not named WANG, its just what we are used to from our TERA days.

    I would prefer just sticking to WANG.

    I know some of you are promoting this "Falafell" thing. I just have to say though, no such thing exists where I live. Therefore if there is a vote, I proclaim that you should vote for the critter with big sharp pointy teeth.

    I've never been to a Waffle House either. I never even HAD a falafel in my life.

    But as @hullis said. Puns are excellent.

    I personally like We Are Nice Guys with either WANG or NICE as the short form. Lalafell House and the various permutations just don't do it for me.

  • BlueBlueBlueBlue Registered User regular
    If you are planning to cast a vote that way, please google it first to make sure you understand the possible negative connotations of a Nice Guy

    I don't suggest googling "Nasty Group" as I just did, as it has much more negative connotations than "Nice Guy". Well depending on what you're into I guess ;)

    You have been forewarned.

    A reasonable reason.

    If you're looking at 'Nice Guy' in that way you're taking it out of context and interpreting it in an entirely different manner than it's intended to be. I'm sorry, but get over yourselves. It's an acronym thinly veiled as a dick joke.

    After the last few days WANG has little traction with either group compared to Omega Hare, Falfall House, or the burgeoning Ghost in the Linkshell.

    I'm pretty sure anyone immediately leaping to that interpretation of We Are Nice Guys should see a psychiatrist, psychologist, or neurologist.

    What's the interpretation? Google and Bing don't bring up anything weird.

    There were a few articles about self-described "nice guys" on dating sites, but they're misogynistic assholes in person. And a lot of them wore fedoras too.

    I get that the term "nice guy" doesn't mean that, but it's been tainted a bit by people like that, especially online. So I understand if some people here want to avoid any accidental connotation.

    You can't. I got one from Amazon with a link to a page that simply says to sign up to be told when you can use them.
