am admitted most liking bleeding, bloody, besotted, benighted or debauched to fill in the blank o'  __________ bastards of black isle, but am thinking we would be satisfied with many combinations.

Ballast of the Black Isle

Black Isle Bulwark?

Bilge rats of the Black Isle?

blushing?

Bashful? Sounds more appropriate for a permanent descriptor. 

 

Anyway, I still want my double-Os. Mostly because two Os put together resemble a Möbius band. Same reason the membership fee is 8.

It's not like a capital "B" does not resemble an "8" at all

 I wonder if you guys will find a name before the campaign is over... :biggrin:

 

 

Did it take a long time for "The Obsidian Order" to get named?

 

 

Not really. We made it up on the fly on the kickstarter comment section, with only about 5-10 people involved. That cut the whole "let's discuss this whole thing to death" out. You really just need one or two or three people taking over the initiative. That's better than having a lot of people talking about what could be done if only somebody would finally decide and act upon it...

 

The thing got "official" on day 5 of the campaign, but we actually started it during the first days. We were a pretty active bunch on kickstarter back in the days, writing hundreds of comments each day...  ;)

Edit: At about day 10 into the campaign we also had a website (made by Alper), a great founding document (made by BatNat), a crest (made by me) and a small bunch of people who heavily marketed for the effort in the kickstarter comments. So everything was made by individual dedicated fans while Obsidian only delivered the technical backend for the funding. Just as an inspiration for you guys what could be possible... ;)

We need Obsidian to give us a cut-off date - put up an official poll - then go with it. (Or just let Aarik D pick it from those suggested)

(Then we start discussing what to have on the badge design: "A ship", "No, a sword", "No, a mongoose" :skull::aiee:  )

How we doing guys? The sooner we get the name situated, the faster we can get that add-on listed for your guys. The forum badge will be designed by Rob Nesler himself, so I'm pretty sure you guys will be pretty pleased with it. I'll show you guys what he cooks up and see if you have any feedback. 

 

Again, this is a forum badge, so I think the best thing would be to have a short name if possible. If it's a long title, I don't believe there is enough space you can put into a 300x300 pixel image. (not sure about the size) But do keep the size space in mind since it is a badge and not a title.
