The New Massassi - New Site Name VOTING!
2009-02-17, 8:50 AM #1
These are our final choices, taken from a few admins and myself from the previous naming thread.

Keep in mind while voting: The reason for this name change is to make it clear and obvious to new visitors who see the name as to it's purpose. It would be helpful to have a name that makes a solid, simple statement of our new direction. The reason I started this contest was to find a name to replace simply "The Massassi Temple", which in itself is not descriptive of its new purpose.

Err, no.

Massassi wouldn't be no change, It'd be dropped "The" and "Temple".

And it was MZZT's suggestion.
nope.

That's inconsequential. If you support either, just pick the first option. I'll have another vote later for that.

I voted for the last option since it is most likely to get the least amount of votes

My vote goes for Massassi, with the Massassian being a close second. The ones with "edit" in the name are tied for third for me.

Needs to involve Massassi, green, and state the purpose clearly, that's all I care about.

Voted Emon. Acronyms FTW!
Code to the left of him, code to the right of him, code in front of him compil'd and thundered. Programm'd at with shot and $SHELL. Boldly he typed and well. Into the jaws of C. Into the mouth of PERL. Debug'd the 0x258.

You people are freaking stupid. You're all voting "Massassi" out of some :downs: sense of nostalgia, but it's going to be horrible for site growth. Everyone's going to think, "wtf is a massassi."

I would personally prefer Massassi to not be in the site name myself, but I understand why it's staying. I simply feel the name should be name-y and not -name with a limiting description- is all. I do prefer -editing- over -game network- though.

Whats the point of hosting this on massassi.net if the name is something completely different? Why not make a new website with a new name?

2009-02-18, 12:16 AM #31
It doesn't seem that weird for a place to identify itself with a proper name, so I really doubt that people would come here and think "wtf massassi"? (Besides, that's what "about" pages are for.)

Some description would be nice, but none of the proposed extensions sound very good, so I'm sticking with plain old Massassi.

(I still think that "Massassi Editing" manages to include Massassi, be descriptive, and not be overly tacky. "Massassi Game Editing," even, if you really think it's unclear.)

Ok, so I'll get back to work.

Editopa is the best name. I think MGDN is best if you really want to keep Massassi in the name.

I didn't pick Massassi just out of a sense of nostalgia, I picked it out of a sense of simplicity. The users are going to call it 'Massassi' regardless of what the site is named in full - I just think we should cut out the middle man on that process.

wtf is a digg is that some sort of tick
2009-02-18, 3:18 AM #37
I think Massassi sounds too esoteric and irregular to be easily remembered, unlike digg.
