RSN ... Ukees?
Brudenell
uclue. What will we be known as? Here in Canada we already have the a
tiny community known as Ucluelet inhabited by "Ukes" & "Ukees". I
expect that some of them will, real soon now, turn up on uclue.com .
Their sense of humour will be readily identifiable...

provided, i see one i like better: uclutians (or, perhaps better,
ucluetians). this flows off the tongue so well i don't see any real
competition. my question is, assuming the model is similar to our
dear departed GA, what will we use for the equivalent of GARs and GACs
and GAQs? i guess the term "peanuts" could just be transplanted to
UC, but UCRs? UCQs? nah. i propose that roger hold off opening the
site up for a few more days until this is all worked out.

phonetically, and does not beckon at all. I would think it would be
preferable to let names evolve. Affectionate nicknames don't come
about by decree.
I don't find the sample of humor appealing, either. It's vulgar. Is
this the style we should expect from the new service?

Do you mean the domain name for the new service? Uclue.com is not
everyone's favourite, that's for sure. But it's one that most people
can at least live with as their second favourite.
At one of the Researcher forums we debated dozens of names at length,
but couldn't find a more universally-acceptable name. We eventually
selected uclue.com by a vote.
It would be a bit awkward to change this late in the process, what
with a company registered, bank account applied for, etc. But, if the
ideal name emerges, we would be prepared to make the change.
So feel free to suggest away. It's probably better if people suggest
names here at GA Alumni so that they can be discussed. The only
downside is that a speculator might register the name - but we can
allay that risk by declaring in advance that we won't be purchasing
any domain name held by a squatter.

With an eye catching logo: a Skull and Crossbones!
Questioners would be known as Askers; Commenters as Jollies; and
Researchers as Rogers.
It's memorable and sexy AND the entire suite of Domain Names is
currently available, but HURRY! - Not for much longer.
Askers could rate answers by awarding Gold Dubloons and, for a really
great answer, they could hoist the Skull and Crossbones to the sound
of the roar of cannons.
For their AJR names, Researchers would be asked to take names of well-
known Pirates like: Bluebeard ... and here's a huge list to choose
from:
