We're going to start a new board for old grey threads in the PPP.  Anything over 6 months old, still active with more than a dozen replies a week are going to be moved to a special board to allow new threads in the PPP to flourish and allow the regulars to continue to hang out in their favorite old threads.

I prefer something with all W's or a walrus theme, so that it would mimic the Playful Penguin Place alliteration, since we tend to just refer to it by it's initials anyways. I however included almost everything that was suggested anyways.

You can change your vote at any time.  So if it gets near the end, and no one is voting for your favorite choice, you can change to something else to help boost the score of a second favorite.  Think of it as a primitive version of a run-off election.

This is an exhibition, not a competition, please folks - no wagering

I like "The Writing on the Walrus"...very clever play on words.

Yes, I realize that I just praised Whistledog... :D

I like the Chit Chatting Chumleys.  Chumley rocked. :D

I'm gonna have to go with "The Writing On the Walrus".

Me too!  :D

If it was WWW, it would get confused with the World Wide Web

I picked 'The Writing on the Walrus' ..

a) because I came up with it :D
b) It's catchy
c) It can be abbreviated to WoW

c) It can be abbreviated to WoW


Nerd :D

I like We Was The Walrus cuz it kinda has somehting to do with pop culture....
and bad grammar.


it's what we're all about.

I hit Well Worn Walrus Writings but I think The Writing on the Walrus is fine. 

As usual, I had to back a minority vote.....

But in honor of our Founder, I went with "Chucky G's Wide World Of Walrus".

Wicky Wacky Woo.

Wicky Wacky Woo.


Yeah, reckon I COULD vote for that !  ::)

'Wicky Wacky Woo' !    ???  :-X

I'm going with the ever-clever "Writing on the Walrus", and karma to you, Whistledog!

Changed my vote to Writing on the Walrus                             *Idea coming*

We don't need no introduction
We don't need walrus patrol
Oh spark the new threads not to foredoom
Walrus  leave our kind alone

I don't want to be a walrus... I'm a rebel so I went with the long and winding board...  but WoW was a close second choice for me.

P-pick up a Penguin — a lovely big Penguin,
When you pick up a P-P-P-Penguin there’s so much more to enjoy!
It’s bigger, so delicious, chocolate flavour through and through,
When you feel a little p-peckish, what’s bigger and best for you?
A P-P-P-Penguin!
So pick up a Penguin!
When you feel a little p-peckish
P-p-p-pick up a Penguin!

The Writing On The Walrus just sounds good to me


Chucky G's Wide World Of Walrus was my 2nd choice and
The Long And Winding Board was my 3rd choice. 


so am I the Super Delegate here and my vote pretty much decides it?  8)

hmmm... looks like the votes are pretty much in at this point... not many more cast today, and there appears to be a pretty overwhelming consensus what the new name should be.

no matter what, I thank you  ChuckyG for all your hard work providing a fun place to hang outhttp://www.inthe00s.com/smile/14/notworthy.gif

I had to read carefully through the list before I found one I liked. I finally decided on:

ChuckyG's Wild World of Walruses

have you decided yet? ???

I voted for tthe Old, Gold, and Slightly Cold, but I wouldn't mind the Long and Winding..  If I had seen it, would have picked it.

I am STILL torn. I like Long And Winding Board, Long Winded Penguins & Chucky G's Wide World of Walruses. So, I have narrowed it down to 3 but I can't chose which one. I will think on it some more and give you my "final answer" in another day or two (hopefully, before the voting ends  :-\\ )

Now this is hard.

Well, if I may attempt to charm you and persuade your answer:

While "The Long & Winding Board" and "Long Winded Penguins" are nicer titles, they don't quite have the charm of "Chucky G's Wide World Of Walrus".
Coupled with the fact that this clever title honors the Founder- Chucky G, and the fact that it is an underdog of sorts (and we know everyone loves the underdog), I believe that this title is the best choice!

*End of shameless plug*

Good enough for me, Wayne. Just saw your post ... I actually intended NOT to vote for anything, nor comment in this thread again ... but what the heck ... Yeah .... your logic is nice ... I'm  voting for it ... NOW !

But you see, the other two titles sort of describe what the board is going to be. While the other one-cleaver title that it is-and it does invoke the name of our "fearless leader", doesn't really tell anyone what the board is about.  I'm sure you see my dilemma here. 



Cat

how about Chucky G's Long and Winding Board?

Cat- that is the beauty part of it.
With the title so universal & quasi-vague, the inquirer gets to enter & discover it on their own.

Snoz- Had that been an option, I could see it working.
......'Course, anything with Chucky's moniker works, for me! :D

ugh... thanks... I think it makes me look vain, even though I didn't even suggest it...

Let's 'Chuck' in a compromise solution ?




ChuckyG's writing on the walrus !

















Writing on the walrus ? Hasn't he got anything better to do with his time ?  ???  :P  ;D

I like the Long and Winding Board...it's cute and descriptive.

Just don't make it "The Writing on Chucky G's Walrus".  That just sounds totally wrong LOL

You still have time to change your vote.  Currently the most popular entry doesn't have a 50% victory of votes... so if everyone else got together they could stage an upset.

Vote ends Monday night...

Sorry, mon capitan, but I am a stubborn sort.
Which is OK, because I am used to carrying the minority vote.
Any other members into supporting the underdog?

sorry wayne I'm not going for the underdog...since the only reason you picked the underdog was to pay tribute to our fearless leader I say Chucky G just adds that to each title and we take a recount  ;) 

I want mine to win.

Which is why I suggested tacking it to the beginning of the most popular choice. Don't see how it loses its charm.  :-\\


Ultimately  though, it doesn't really  matter what it's called. Can't see how the name will impact a great deal on guest/newbie/stalwarts visiting the new area of the board ....  :-X

You make sense sometimes and confuse me by it.  ;D

'S OK.

As I said, I'm used to being in the minority.
In the grand scheme of things, who cares?

For what it's worth Wayne ... I do believe 'nally' (Jeff) .... and I were in that SAME  minority with you ? So ... not bad company to be in (I would like to think ? ) .

Yes in any case, as I've recently discovered, it IS now all academic .....



We now have a new board on inthe00s.com called "The Writing on the Walrus". It is a sub-board of Playful Penguin Place and can be found here:

http://www.inthe00s.com/index.php?board=43.0

Due to the number of threads that the moderators are moving from PPP to the new board, we are not posting the standard "Moved: ..." notices. If you can't find your favorite threads in PPP, you should be able to find them on "The Writing on the Walrus"!

We gave the good fight.
Thanks for backing my vote, Jeff & Alan, even if we lost.

Hell, my band didn't listen to me, most of the Online Society didn't listen, my daughter doesn't listen sometimes....I'm used to it.

-Meh-

;D ;D ;D...I'm used to it here too....there were just three of us voting for one topic, no use there.  Maybe Chucky should have just come up with the name himself.  ;)

hey, my topic only got 3 votes too...but hey, it's gonna be alright. ;D

Mine received no votes at all!

Me too!  :D


Me three!  :D

We've had the new name for days now...what is this thread for?
