Re: Round Names - Round 19
New Horizons would be suitable name IMO because there will be no huge 1up vs eXi war as there always is.
Hidden Enemies would be nice as eXi aren't supposed to be playing seriously (just the core etc) yet some people expect them to pull some stunt in order to win.

Re: Round Names - Round 19
new horizons would indeed be a GREAT name for a game that has not changed in any strategical manner at all for the normal player for nearly 2 years ....

Re: Round Names - Round 19
Endless nights would be better suited for the round when prelaunch is dropped.
Hidden enemies fits the return of Xan cloack
Out of the Shadows... well R17 was already 'the Shadows of Time'. Give the shadows a break plz or do we already have the name for R20 as well: 'The Return of the Shadows'...

Re: Round Names - Round 19
I went for The Way of the Warrior. New Horizons and Endless NIghts are good names too.
I dont like the Fight for Supremacy name, iirc R14 was called something like the Struggle for Supremacy, and i think there is enough creativity around to not over-use the same names again and again. A bit like Makhil's gripe with the Shadows .

Unusual as this is, I agree with you Phil^, a lot of them are clearly copies from sci-fi shows, or small changes to previous round names. Clearly PATeam needs to improve its short lisitng procedure for future rounds.

It was scrapped with the rest of the 10067 (more or less) worse suggestions (such as Suffering the Mindless, which probably would suit AD better than a play round).

changing the shortlisting procedure wouldnt help that much in this case since the submitted ones were universally dire

Re: Round Names - Round 19
Endless nights is kind of garbage considering there is the pre-launch.
Thats the same thing as calling a small Child's party "Drunken fest".
Stupid.

I actually tend to agree. I am already joking around in my head by calling R19 "Endless Jolt Server Issues"

Re: Round Names - Round 19
This game has barely ever been advertised so I fail to see your point. Personally I doubt that the clinching factor for anyone has ever been the round name. Frankly if someone signed up based purely on that I'd like to see them removed for idiocy of the highest order. I mean I've heard of judging a book by it's cover but that's more like judging a book by a cover that was torn off another book and stapled on and is in a language you can't even read.

Re: Round Names - Round 19
Shouldn't it be Endless Night without the final 'S' ? If one night doesn't end how can there be any other ???
Maybe in the future the choice for the round name should be made upon sign up and revealed at tick 1... that would ensure that a little bit more people get involved in the choice and that the winner gets more than just 23 votes.

Re: Round Names - Round 19
what they oughta do is to make the round name vote part of the sign up process, then you get a good amount of votes atleast....23 votes deciding a round name with 3k planets is rediculous, especially with a retartded round name like we got this time

tbh, does anyone really care about the round name? Beyond pawiki will anyone remember this round as anything but rd19?
