    Default A Name for the M2TW fora ?

    Some time ago, when the Sub-forum for the Interactive History threads was made that forum had no name. Eventually a poll was put up, and people could put names forward. The Poll eventually showed Chapter House was the name to give it.

    Now Medieval Totalwar 2 doesn't sound appropriate next to say...the Main hall,The colosseum and all. Therefore I propose we give it a name, and do it the exact same way as before. By giving everyone the chance to put names forward, and then put up a poll with all the mentioned options.

    What do you say ?



    Moderator edit: As well as suggesting names, it would be useful if people could second any suggestions they like. I'll pick out the more popular and put them into a poll.

    Some good suggestions thus far guys.

    Might I suggest moving this to the Medieval 2 forum, it 'll give the frequent posters in that section of the forum the chance to put their names forward too.

    I was wondering about naming the M2TW forum too, but then I had a second thought: might it be a good idea to wait for the game? Often we choose something out of the game. Maybe we will find some inspiration from the buildings in the game?

    The Basilica could be the Modding forum. Good ideas.

    'The Citadel' is good
    I also like 'The Keep'
    Or 'The Great Hall' (a term I run into a lot more than 'Main Hall')

    I like the following suggestions (in approximate order of preference thus far):

    The Armoury
    The Hall of the Round Table
    The Keep
    The Citadel


    To also throw out a few more suggestions (most of them pretty silly IMO, but what the heck):

    The Temple
    The Portcullis
    The Drawbridge
    The Grand Hall
    The Lords' Manor
    The Royal Palace

    Good ideas so far, I like The Great Hall and The Armoury so far.

    How about for the main forum (in no particular order):

    The Gate House
    The Royal Pavilion
    The Barbican
    The Garderobe


    For the modding forum:

    The Siegeworks
    The Foundary

    Seconding this too.

    You know i'd like it if we can have versions of the M2TW board (that can be set in the user CP) that will have different namings for the boards, so you can set it so the board names are Byzantine, European, Islamic, Mongol..etc

    I like 'The Armoury,' but think it belongs more on a sub-forum, such as modding or multi-player. Sort of giving you all the options of weapons or armor to suit your play-style. For the main forum I think something more 'central' like Keep or Citadel fits better.

    The Armoury woud be good for a sub forum with Factshun guides, tactics guides and strategy guides. I think the Grand Hall woud be good for the whole forum.

Absolutely nothing. We've been exploited, raped, controlled and punished by the English — and that's who you are playing this afternoon Phil Bennett's pre 1977 Rugby match speech
