I'm disappointed my suggestion was not considered appropriate enough for the list

it is not the "meaning of everything", it is "the answer to life, the universe and everything".

Re: Round 42 Name Vote
My suggestion was supposed to be The Dogs of War minus the trailing 's' but it's alright. I think A Call to Arms is the best one. I like the reference to Adams but my eyes would begin to bleed before protection ended if I had to read him misquoted every time I wanted to log in.

Re: Round 42 Name Vote
i am sure he wouldnt have minded a change, after all every time he 'did' the hitchhikers guide he changed it, the radio was different to tv...which was different to the books... and that was before others came along and rewrote for modern tv then movie...i am sure someone who kept changing things himself wouldnt have cared about a change to fit word length
its near enough for most of us to know what its about!

Re: Round 42 Name Vote
i honestly couldnt disagree more nooboo. if you knew anything about douglas adams you would know that he changed thinks because he was a perfectionist. the idea of changing something, for the worse, just to fit into someone elses restrictions would, i am quite sure, horrify him.

Re: Round 42 Name Vote
If only Douglas Adams were here to see how you're valiantly defending his legacy, Reincarnate. He would be so proud!

Re: Round 42 Name Vote
unfortunately, it seems to be a fruitless defence as this awful round name has probably already got enough of a lead to win.

Re: Round 42 Name Vote
I love how "A Call to Arms" is getting bashed for being unoriginal when we have 16 votes for "Into The Blackness". Totally more original and bears no resemblance to Round 25's "Into the Darkness".

Re: Round 42 Name Vote
well, as much as i like trolling the pateam, more than 1 of those suggestions is mine. i wont say which ones but...there you go. also, pretty sure "the meaning of everything" is kargools due to his defence of the fact it is a misquote.
but, you are right gzambo, no one really cares except those that make suggestions :'(

Re: Round 42 Name Vote
well, the point of bumping it to first was so that it shows on the forums overview page. otherwise, people have to go into the seperate section, which i imagine a lot are too lazy to do.
