February 1, 20178 yr well, the bloody beautiful bastards of black isle might be too much even for fluffle. HA! Good Fun!

February 1, 20178 yr 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.

February 1, 20178 yr Ballast of the Black Isle Black Isle Bulwark? Bilge rats of the Black Isle? I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man
February 1, 20178 yr 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. Edited February 1, 20178 yr by twincast Proud Probatanthrope @D:OSTor.com: Boob Plate Armor Would Kill You (cf. "ball plate armor" - Just think about it.)
February 1, 20178 yr Keep in mind that it'll have to be representable in a badge. What do we want on it? "Things are funny...are comedic, because they mix the real with the absurd." - Buzz Aldrin."P-O-T-A-T-O-E" - Dan Quayle

February 2, 20178 yr I wonder if you guys will find a name before the campaign is over... Did it take a long time for "The Obsidian Order" to get named?
February 2, 20178 yr I wonder if you guys will find a name before the campaign is over... 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... http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/60483-the-obsidian-order-of-eternity-wants-you/ 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... Edited February 2, 20178 yr by LordCrash
February 2, 20178 yr 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" ) Edited February 2, 20178 yr by Silent Winter _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ *Casts Nature's Terror* , *Casts Firebug* , *Casts Rot-Skulls* , *Casts Garden of Life* *Spirit-shifts to cat form*
February 2, 20178 yr Author 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. Obsidian Discord || Grounded Discord
February 2, 20178 yr You don't need Obsidian for that. You just need somebody to take over the initiative. Aarik (while being really nice and helpful) isn't your mama. Edited February 2, 20178 yr by LordCrash
February 2, 20178 yr Well we certainly are bickering, aren't we? The Bickering Bastards "Loyal Servant of His Most Fluffyness, Lord Kerfluffleupogus, Devourer of the Faithful!" *wearing the Ring of Fire Resistance* (gift from JFSOCC)
February 2, 20178 yr Author I am a fan of Raiders of the Obsidian Isle, and The Obsidian Marauders Obsidian Discord || Grounded Discord
February 2, 20178 yr The Obsidian Marauders was the top vote in the poll I made. But many more ideas were posted afterwards too. So we really should narrow it down sometime soon.
February 2, 20178 yr Author If you guys need a more instant forum to speak with one another. I would suggest joining to our discord channel where you guys can live chat with one another. I can create a specific text chat to discuss the naming of the order. Edit: text chat is all set up! Obsidian Discord || Grounded Discord
