New name for sept?

[Bridget MacClelland]

Ben brought up a good idea in the "Ideas" thread that should probably be discussed a bit... should we or should we not rename the sept?

This is obviously something that should also be an IC discussion... but I don't see why OOC discussion would hurt. Ben's ideas were "Sept of Two Thunders" or "Two Thunder Falls"... having to do with Thunderbird and Grandfather Thunder, as well as the sound of the falls.

Thoughts?

How about "Storytellers' Despair"?

[benime]

No, seriously, guys. Pride in a sept name is the first step towards actually giving a goddamn about the game.

[Red Moon]

I thought that "Sept of Two Voices" was a good idea.

Afterall, they both do make themselves quite heard.

I really really like Two Thunder Falls. It's got geography, totem and pun value in three economical words, four syllables, the same syllable length of the (old) name. I usually am not satisfied with a name until it has two references or at least one pun. Right-on Ben!

*coughcough* Darshe... What is the role of the Omega in a Garou or even a wolf pack? Wolves do have stress and they do feel better after venting on the Omega. Personally I don't necessarily subscribe to that model, but that seems to be the most popular view even among those who study wolves.

I guess I still subscribe to the Omega as a semi-tolerated hanger on to the pack, not necessarily part of it, but an outside who is allowed tot travel along with the pack and help in the hunt some of the time. Granted there may be a fairly fine line between this view and the other...

But yeah the Elder's wolf side at least if not relieved and unfrustrated, at least tired enough to take the edge off.

Not be to a dick.... but

Cleaned.

Given the new nature of the caern, how about Sept of Thunder's Will?
Not as good in the pun department, I'll admit, but it's another option.

I vote for
THUNDERING SEPT OF DOOM!!!

At this rate, it'll be the "HAWLEY SMOOT TARIFF" before anything else.

Seriously, guys, ever since someone came up with the "Sept of the Emerald Shroud" for the Carkeek Park caern nobody's given a crap about sept names. There's just that awkward silence after introductions where a "Welcome to the Sept of the ... uh... something-something." should go. ;P

[Alexander Faulkner]

Well... I am going to try to remedy this... For the moment Thomas is calling it Sept of Two Thunders.... at least when he welcomes people to the caern from the bawn.... However, such encounters recently have made him somewhat disheartened...

[benime]

*Thomas walks up, looking all professional, as caern antics fiercely resemble a Three Ring Circus made entirely of clowns in the background*

"Hello. Welcome to our sept... *sigh*"

That's the truth...
AMEN

Lol. Seriously though... some cahnges are going to be made at the moot... and I fiercly apologize for any "rambling" I do but he is a pissed off M***er *u*ker at the moment due to having his ass personally handed to him.

For insight to his REAL point of view... see third part of post "Of All that is to Come"

If you want to see pissed, I suggest you consult the group of Ahroun you took with you on your latest foray into the human world. Two hours OOC and god knows how many hours IC of standing around waiting for the "shit to hit the fan," and all that happened at the end was a dog pile we didn't even have any idea was happening.

On a full moon. Are you crazy? You're lucky we just walked away.

So don't talk to me about Thomas being "pissed," unless you're talking about his drinking habits. lol


ON TOPIC:

Thus far, the votes are as follows...

Two Thunder Falls - Jon, Ben
Two Thunders - Richard
Thunder's Will - Julianna

This has been moved to the "ideas" thread.

On note of this thread... I like Two Thunder Falls myself.

And trust me, Ben, Thomas has far more reason to be uber-pissy than most anyone else right now.

At least until I get to the Ahrouns... mwahaha... ;D

[Alexander Faulkner]

I hate to say it but I think I have to clean this thread again... the conversation was going so well too....

[benime]

Haha, agreed.

[Alexander Faulkner]

Hey I like Two Thunder Falls too... don't get me wrong... I just went with what I saw first... Two Thunder Falls works well
