Someone left the cake out in the rain

Post by geofflambert »

I thought I'd begin a service where we all can store the great names we think up for AARs that we may or may not ever get the chance to use. I mean, that's the whole reason we play this game, isn't it? We start a campaign game with someone so we can start an AAR for it that we can give a great name to. But what if we think up a great name but never get the chance to use it? This way we can think up the name, place it here for storage so we won't forget, or maybe someone else can use it instead of the lame name they come up with on their own. So here's my first entry, and hopefully not the last:

Is the Gorn planning to do an AAR someday? Whether he is or not, this thread is a good idea.

For a year now, I've known the title for my next match vs. John III.

If I had a PBEM with another player I am sure it would be appropriate to call it "That Sinking Feeling ...."

<grin> An excellent idea for a thread.
