    Apparently it creates the thread before you are able to finish making the poll...
    edit: please check to see if you can choose more than two options (not sure if it works)

    I would vote Sausage Factory twice if possible. Really, the others are far too serious and self-indulgent.

    And what has a palaistra got to do with anything?

    I read "Manufacturing Area for Internet Activites" in a Soviet Russian voice for some reason. It seemed to work.

    You are right, I tried reading it in a Russian Federation voice and this worked much less.

    Why did you include the mafia-specific titles? I thought you wanted only all-encompassing stuff...

    I guess this is a question to me.
    I wouldn't want to hurt anyone's feelings by not including their contribution. The 'no-mafia-specific titles only' rule is on The General's own account.

    So we are changing it from "GAY" to a slang-term for a gay orgy?

    My line of thought in proposing it was that quote about laws and sausages which is questionably attributed to Bismarck. Seemed to apply to mafia games as well.

    Gameroom Assembly Headquarters gets my vote. It seems to best encapsulate the spirit of the gameroom
    "Something can be done, by careful analysis, to sort out truth from propaganda and legend. But this is where the real difficulties begin, since each student inevitably selects, constitutes criteria, according to his own unconscious assumptions, social, ethical or political. Moral conditioning, in the widest sense, plays a far greater part in the matter than most people- especially the historians themselves-ever realize."
