Islands

Should we name the islands?

The Isle of Sin sounds much much better then 'Island #4' or 'Open 6'

Could we have a contest to name the island?

Or is it even worth doing?

Shadow Isle, Dark Isle.....oops!
Light Isle, Shining Isle, Virtue Isle....I'm still thinking!

I thought about that, but then it would get confusing since each side would have their own name for each island. This might get confusing for spectators, players, and Se'an who is updating the game board.

Instead of isle of sin or names that tend to lean one way or the other why not name them after historic UO figures & events?

Or split the isles 50/50 and let each side name half of them?

First one to win it, names it. The name sticks for both sides. This will be the making of the official board. After that I can do the Island names colored to ownership.

I like both of these ideas.

First team that rules the island gets to name the island.

I'm going to encourage the evil to name the islands after historic UO figures and events.

I call dibs on these island names for Team Evil:

Winmere's Isle

Jon Dook Ugadhol ogh bubhoshnezz

Isle of Chaos

(insert Dungeon name) Isle.

Not Nanoc's island.

And all the kewl names that I haven't thought of yet
..............

Ugadhol is Orchish for island... which is a purdy bubhosh wurd.

I did try an come up with ten, good or evil, uo historic, npc names...
Most of the ones that came to mind we not worthy, except for Lord British. Blackthorn? yeah, right... Pixie the Mouse? the good wouldn't even choose this name for an island...

Hmm...Named after historic UO figures or events....First to win it names it.
I like both of those ideas.
I am going to encourage the GOOD to name them after Historic figures IN events. Something like... the first GOOD to die fighting for an Isle that we win gets it named after him...............So, Open #1 would become NANOC Isle #1, Open #2 would become NANOC Isle #2 since I died first when we won those Isles.

OUCH!! Yes Phoenix, I know Phoenix, I WILL Phoenix....

Ok I just got a better idea.(and a headache) How about we name the Base Isles of Light 1,2 and 3 Tranquility Base 1,2 and 3.

Open 1 and 2, which we battled for and won would become KOC #1 and MDK #2.

Some other Good Isle names for us could be:
J-D
-S-
AoD
OiN
TeC
AT
!C!
X
PWNI
CKS
Ok, all you Good out there post so we can pick some more.
We will need 9 names for all the Isles we win.
