    Icon4 United AAR Forum - title ideas

    The proposal to create an United AAR Board has been made in the Q&S forum.
    Link to the proposal

    The proposal to the CVRIA, and the decision is now under the voting phase:
    [Decision]United AAR Forum

    And the decision has passed!
    [Decision] [PASSED 29:5:4 26/09/08] United AAR Forum!

    Thanks for the support and contribution of everyone.

    ___________________________________________________________

    What do you guys would like to see as the title (and subtitle) of the united AAR forum? (POST YOUR IDEAS HERE)

    I suggest After Action Reports or AAR Board, but it could be something fancy too, like the Throne Room at the Org.
    It should reflect the wealth of options you could do at this forum: AAR Competitions, Tale of the Week contests, AARs, community games and RPGs (like YATS, TFT, GSTK, Imperium).

    Good, but remember this would include community games as well.

    I like the TWC Oasis thing. You come here to refresh after traveling through the dry desert of modding and strategical discussion

    Read my AARs:
    The Legacy of Megas Alexandros (Europa Barbarorum as Arche Seleukeia)
    The Prodigal Son (Shogun 2 as Mori)

    Personally i'd rather just have a simple name that states what it is. Just like "After Action Reports, Competitions & RPGs". If you call it TWC Oasis, a lot of people will just ignore it and move on.

    It probably will be something like this. I just leave this thread open, maybe someone comes up with a name that when you hear, you say "WHAMBOOO... that's it!"

    Not bad, but too long. BTW the competitions will be only mentioned in the subtitle me thinks.

    I think "After Action Reports, Community Games & RPGs" would be good.

    I'm late again (my day has only 24 hours, how about yours?) but I like to share my ideas with you.

    1st idea
    Warriors Arena
    (After Action Reports, Competitions, Community Games & RPGs)

    2nd idea
    TWC Battlefield
    (After Action Reports, Competitions, Community Games & RPGs)

    3rd idea
    Total Action
    (After Action Reports, Competitions, Community Games & RPGs)

    I agree with everyone who says that it has to be simple and interesting.
    The "you read it - you like it - you want more" formula is good and not only for magazines.

    OK, how about a bit of elitism?

    Don't go with any fancy names. The whole point is to attract more attention, to get more members involved with the various activities of this forum. You don't want to have anything that's going to be confusing or whatever for new members and the like. You should go with something clearcut, to the point. "After Action Reports, Community Games & RPGs" is good but you can easily fit RPGs into the Community Games category.

    I would go with "After Action Reports, Community Games, & Competitions" or just "After Action Reports and Community Games".

    I'm going to have to agree with Trajan. Simplicity always wins in the end.

    I would argue against the claim that having a fancy name would distract many members, take the example of Circus Maximus and Thema Devia. Anyway, it's not my decision, and I like the simple version too. So it could be

    After Action Reports and Community Games

    But in the subtitle I think the competitions should be mentioned somehow.

    Pillaging and Plundering since 2006

    The House of Baltar

    Neither is this the dawn from the east, nor is a dragon flying above, nor are the gables of this hall aflame. Nay, mortal enemies approach in ready armour. Ravens are calling, wolves are howling, spear clashes and shield answers

    Domus Fabularum sounds neat. I'd be fine with it.
