I learned a couple of things from seeing this part of today's announcement:

1.) Some people suck at spelling and refuse to check for correct spelling for an OFFICIAL CONTEST (Counted at least one or two misspellings, bravo kiddies).
2.) Some people are incredibly stupid.
3.) Some people are still convinced that trying to be "gangsta" is cool.
4.) A list of completely random names can make T i f a "lol" for whatever reason in real life.

As for the winning name (zOMG)? Eh, it's okay.

So tell me, people of Reality Bites, what do you think about the whole naming process? The MMO in general?

I don't like the name at all. I don't like any of the losers either...they should have stuck with Gaia Battle.

Battle sounds good to me. zOMG makes no sense.

It's just a common "word," better as a saying, around Gaia. I think that's where it came from.

I was actually supporting them calling it Gaia Battle too. I mean, none of the other games have interesting names, so why does this one need to be any different?

I was at my friends house when this announcement came he was considering not playing this game at all , I was, needles to say, appauled by some of these names because they are horrible and as Tifa had already said why can no one use speel chcek for an official entry. I was disgruntled and it made me want to punch a baby in the face.

Glad that I'm not the only one that was bothered by that. I can understand occasional typos, but the one or two I saw couldn't have been typos.

I don't even think I'm going to play it either. It seems like something that will lose its hype quickly.

xp bleh what dumb name. They should've put Gaia into the title or some NPC or town .

It'll be a waste of my time to play it. But the Avatar MMORPG is coming out in September, and I'm most definitely not going to be able to avoid playing it, so yeah. My time is pre spent.

I'll play it. c:

Im an MMO slut so there is no way i can skip out besides I'd have to try it at least once before saying I won't play it, then and only then can I say it's a waste of time.

I was never a fan of MMOs. I prefer playing games by myself.

Yeah, I solo in MMOs.
So I level up slower than others, but I know that I accomplished something greater.

If I played MMOs, most people probably wouldn't even know that I have an account. rofl
