New forum name
All right; the poll is up. It will remain open for 10 days. If there's no clear winner, we'll have a second run-off poll if necessary. Now go vote for your favorite!
(And for those who are wondering, yes we unfortunately did have to eliminate many of the suggestions. The poll doesn't allow for more than 30 choices, and we had almost twice as many entries.)

Re: New forum name
How will we deal with the inevitable fools who will make new accounts so that it may look like their choices are the majority?
EDIT: Grasshopper? Uh... Ok.

Re: New forum name
Imperial Chancellory got my vote
Re: New forum name
I was torn between the Parliament, Estates-General, and the Assembly. I picked one of them. Guess.
Whatever. So far, this poll is so indecisive. Not one choice exceeded 1 vote. How sad. Sad.

Re: New forum name
I'm happy with either the Assembly/Chancellery/Parliament groups. I picked the Assembly one, since I made the General Assembly suggestion.
At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.
Re: New forum name
I voice my support for the "Chancellory, Estates-General, Parliament" group. I haven't decide which of the 3 I should vote for
Why did the chicken cross the road?
So that its subjects will view it with admiration, as a chicken which has the daring and courage to boldly cross the road,
but also with fear, for whom among them has the strength to contend with such a paragon of avian virtue? In such a manner is the princely
chicken's dominion maintained. ~Machiavelli
Re: New forum name
Vote for the Estates-General. Aside from being my suggestion, it also doesn't have enough votes. Sad.
Re: New forum name
I picked the Estates-General. It's an ironic choice, seeing they never met until 1789.

Re: New forum name
Yay, a few people voted for my idea(Estates-General), although I myself hadn't done so. Oh well.
Re: New forum name
I picked "Flagship", though I thought the "Quarter Deck" sounded pretty snazzy as well.
WARNING! This baseline signature should never appear on screen!
Re: New forum name
Vote goes to the Quarter Deck.

Re: New forum name
The Chancellory/Imperial Chancellory got my vote, but there are a lot of good choices out there.

Re: New forum name
parliament, with two revolutions in the timeframe and the beginnings of modern democracy that seems an apt name.

How About For MP part of the fourm and such?
Re: New forum name
That is a possibility, but it's too soon yet to say whether that'll actually happen. First, we have to see what the results of *this* poll are.
I'm thinking that we'll do a poll similar to this one for both the MP and modding forums. One thing at a time, though -- we want to have a name for the main Empire forum first.
