TC tag

[Sully]

I propose that we put the TC- tag in front of our names, so it's more easily identified. I'm changing to TC-Sully now.

[cdsboy]

is there a requirement to be worthy of this tag?

[Sully]

I think you have to A) post here and b) have a 7 chatacters or fewer TDS name.

[cdsboy]

ya sounds good. i'm in

[Caithness]

We've got competition from the TCM, though.


Edit: What the!? No posting Japanese in unicode?

[cdsboy]

you could go to TC-Caith

[Rosti LFC]

Hmm.... I could be TC-Rosti, but I'm unsure of dropping the 'LFC'. I'll think about it.

In line with TCosmonaut, Caith could be TCaithness

[PetitPrince]

Fortunately, TC-PPrince is short enough.

[Taratang]

I think you have to A) post here and b) have a 7 chatacters or fewer TDS name.:(


Also, won't everyone changing their names add more duplicate entries to the ranking? Not that I really care, just curious.

[Caithness]

No, you only get duplicated if you reset your game's data. If you just change your name, the old one disappears.

[Phydeaux]

The only reason I was doing PhydeauxTC (so that's 8 characters + TC) was because of capitalization reasons and because "TCP" bothers me for some reason, though it shouldn't. "Transmission Control Protocol". Dunno. Bothers me.


I'll change anyway, though. The only thing I hope in the future that other games don't pull our name from the system and have a separate field like in MKDS, because having to change as per clan for each game is annoying.

[Sully]

TC-Fido, perhaps?

[tetrisdude]

unfortunately...i have TCtetrisdude....12 letter i can only fit 10.any ideas?



Maybe something like TC-TD....I dunno anyother ideas?

[tepples]

TC-tdude

[cdsboy]

heh i happen to be one of the peoples with a short name... TC-Batou

[Caithness]

TC-dude?

[tetrisdude]

TC-dude?Thanks for the ideas guys

[caffeine]

turns out caffein is a synonym for caffeine. it'll work. i prefer TC.caffein to TC-caffein, though.

[Phydeaux]

TC-Fido, perhaps?


Well, that's the thing. I use "Phydeaux" when I'm being formal with my name and I use "fido" when I'm doing either commentary on myself or "keepin' it real" where I'm less pomp and more transparent.

Eh, regardless, the next time you see me I'll be TCPhydeaux.

[Rosti LFC]

Colour Thief would have a problem. TC-TGM-CT would be a weird name.

DUDE!


TCTGMMGTCT


It's like a retarded DNA strand!

[Sully]

Hmm. We're still not consistent, partly because many people have long names. How about a single character in front like:


!Sully

*Sully

?Sully

[Phydeaux]

You mean just doing "TC" isn't doing the job?


Because I thought we were doing it so we could pull ourselves up in blockstats.

[Sully]

We are, but TC- doesn't work for everyone. A single character would.

[cdsboy]

personaly i think you need the the TC tag is needed. if you run into TC-Someguy then TC-Ponzor you know they are from the same group. but if you run into *Someguy then *ponzor you'll just think they're messing with symbols

[Rosti LFC]

I agree it should be TC, not * or whatever, though I would have space for the single character. I can't see myself dropping the 'LFC' for TC in the near future, and I reckon I post often enough on here, and on the chat, to be recognisable anyway.
