Re: Round 22 Name
I voted for "The Unseen Enemy" seems like it follows on nicely from last rounds name. Given that I didn't play last round I don't quite know if it actually fits with the current climate, it just sounded good

Re: Round 22 Name
Ahh, The New Dawn, now that was a special time to be alive. The rest of these names don't seem all that inspiring, though I'm voting Shards of Infinity because it seems the most ridiculous. What is a shard of infinity?
I can't wait to find out.

Re: Round 22 Name
I found endless endeavour to be least shit.
I really think we should just start calling them r22\r23 etc. though

Re: Round 22 Name
You should make it a multiple choice poll appoco so people aren't just limited to one choice!
PS The AV account is now actually dead, I think you can re-reg it.

Re: Round 22 Name
agreed, wasn't that many exciting ones this round, but i guess you gotta vote for something..
Put in my own suggestions, but they weren't shortlisted..
What'd you guys think?
1. Battlestations!
2. Strategic Conquest
3. Brace for Impact!
4. Full Speed Ahead
oh, almost forgot, voted for shift of power... the best sounding name on that list imho

Re: Round 22 Name
Shards of Infinity as well. It kind of sparks my imagination, I don't know.

Re: Round 22 Name
A shift of Power, got a feeling this might well be the last round we will see alliances as we know them shifting toward a more galaxy / cluster orientated game. Dunno if this is a good or a bad direction though, but just my humble opinion.

Re: Round 22 Name
The Unseen Enemy got my vote, it would be nice if we can move away from the usual 'power, dawn, struggle, eternity...' vocabulary.

Re: Round 22 Name
I like "A Pledge for Dominion" best..
Fits the round's timing, since some new alliances are born and PA Team's attempt to attract new players in this free round.

Re: Round 22 Name
Would "Fog of War" arouse conflict issues with the classic holocaust documentary of the same name? (available in criterion edition I might add) Or do the sub-titles of online games enjoy exemption from this kind of thing?
I don't know.. either way, it's not a shard on shards of infinity.

The documentary Fog of War wasn't about the holocaust. Or is there another one in addition to the Errol Morris interview with Robert McNamara?

Ahh, apologies, I was mistakenly thinking of Night and Fog, which seeing as it's on the shelf behind me was quite an elementary error.

All I have to say is that Shards of Infinity sounds like an inspiring name and is similar to all of the old endless etc. titles. PA will never end

Re: Round 22 Name
Unless round-names are tied to some storyline feature (which would require some notion of an evolving universe instead of round-after-round of the same), you're probably better to stick with 'Planetarion: Round 22' and save people from getting the wrong idea.
