What is this thread for?
This is a thread where a scummer may ask the community to come up with a title for them. Brainstorming a possible title.
Nothing more, nothing less.
This is an
experimental project
, to see if the community has matured enough to be able to handle this idea without ego, without narcissism, respectfully, maturely, etc. I'm placing faith in the changed times allowing for this to be run without drama or issues; please
don't prove me wrong.If this project doesn't pan out for any reason (drama, community backlash, etc.), I will close this thread.
What this thread is
NOT
for:This is not a thread to discuss Title Fairy events, policies, rules, etc. That's this thread; go there for any commentary you may have on this thread's purpose.
This is not a thread to
nominate
suggestions
for a specific scummer
who requests it.This is not a thread to self-advocate for a title for yourself. That's the
other
experimental thread, located here.This is not a thread to
nth
titles. Nothing here is a nomination, after all, and you can't nth what's not a nomination. Go to the appropriate threads for that.This is not a thread for
discussing
a title nomination (and is not designed for discussing suggestions, either).What are the rules for this thread?
Aside from asking others to suggest titles for you, all Title Fairy rules apply.
You must follow site rules.
You must not nominate off of an ongoing game.
Titles must follow site rules.
Mean-spirited titles will be rejected.
This thread will
allow
discussion
This is not the thread to find the perfect title for a user
. All title suggestions (within the rules) are welcomed, since we're not necessarily trying to come up with THE title for the user. We're just coming up with ideas
. Keep the focus on ideas for titles; minimize discussion on already suggested ideas
. (With any discussion meant to facilitate even more
ideas.)This is a brainstorm for a title for scummers, on their request. Success is not guaranteed. Your request may go unheeded.
I'll allow (at my discretion) scummers to bump a
completely unheeded
request--once
. Only once. (Note the "completely unheeded". If someone responds, then you are not completely unheeded.) Your post for your request won't magically go away; it will always be there for someone to read in the future should they choose to. (Just because nobody comes up with an idea within a week doesn't mean someone six months from now won't look at your request and think of something.)This is not a place for drama. If your request goes unheeded, don't stir up a shitstorm about it. You get what you get. You
don't
get what you don't get. If you don't feel like you can handle nobody engaging your request, it is perhaps best to not make the request. I'm trusting you to know your limitations and not get hurt if the responses are lackluster or absent. (Please for the love of god don't prove me wrong in having faith in your maturity.) If your self-confidence can't handle radio silence towards you, then don't risk it, please. Success isn't guaranteed. Engagement isn't guaranteed. Nothing is guaranteed. So don't go in expecting anything to be guaranteed. Expect silence and be surprised by anything above that.This is not a place for you to actively participate in your own titling process. Scummers cannot give feedback on any of the ideas for themselves. Leave it to the community on their own if you opt in, please.
The Process:
Any scummer desiring the community to give suggestions/brainstorm on a title for them may post, "
Hey, can I get suggestions for a title for me?
" or something similar. (They may redact their request at any point.)Scummers can only make one request to this effect, and
must not include any ideas for themselves
Scummers cannot give feedback on the given suggestions for themselves. They get what they get, that's it. They don't get a say in furthering the talks.
Other scummers offer whatever title ideas which come to mind.
Since this is a brainstorm process, the suggested titles need not be high-quality.
The goal isn't to find a final title.
The goal isn't to discuss the titles given.
The goal is to simply suggest titles which scummers feel may be apt for the scummer requesting them.
Scummers may suggest as many titles as they want for a scummer requesting a brainstorm of ideas.
And that's it. This is not a thread to nominate/nth a title. It is not a thread to discuss a title nominated. There's no nths here. Just title ideas, at request.
