New Name for the League?

Sort:
Avatar of Billium248

There have been some suggestions that the name "Fortnight Speed Vote League" is no longer accurate (since we are switching to a monthly schedule) and should be changed.  Being the conservative that I am, and knowing how a name change will invalidate any links which currently point to this group, I am reluctant.  In American College Football, the "Big Ten" has had 11 teams in it for 20 years now, and yet they are still called the "Big Ten" to maintain continuity.  Likewise, I really don't have a problem keeping the FSVL name, even tho we're no longer on a Fortnight schedule.

However, if it is going to change, it's only going to change this once, and it's got to change to something REALLY cool.  Since the schedule has changed from Weekend to Fortnight to Monthly, I don't think any of these time frames should be in the new title (just in case something changes again).  In fact, the only thing we can be sure of remaining constant is the 10-mins/turn time setting.  So maybe we can work that into the title somehow (maybe using the words "blitz" and "vote").

I'm not making any promises, but I'm opening up this forum to see what kind of ideas we can get for the new and PERMANENT name for this league.  Creativity is essential!!  So start posting your ideas now, and let's see what happens.

 Good idea or just SVL which leaves it open for more options.

The only three I think are better than FSVL are:

  • BVCL (Blitz Vote Championship League)
  • BVCS (Blitz Vote Championship Series) [Maybe "league" is better?]
  • BVEC (Blitz Vote Endurance Championship)

A possible BVCL Logo (the colors can be easily changed, and it could be with other letters):
