Hey all!

I actually need some help from the greatness that is the GSP community.

I have been "volunteered" to write a periodic column for a website (based on Final Fantasy XI, but it will really be about whatever comes to mind), and I need to make up a name for my column. Im totally at a loss for what to name the column (im never good at this kind of stuff), so being a member of this (slightly) insane and highly creative community.. help!

Does anyone have any ideas as to what to name this column? As I said, its going to be mostly random thoughts that come to mind, along with an occasional game guide/review stuff.

Thanks in advance!

Let's see...

In Your Dreams!
XI+
Random Fantasy
Final Thoughts
Random Thoughts
Large and in charge

I have never played the FF games, so I have no clue what would make a good name for your column, but good luck anyway!

Oh, I forgot one...

Few ideas off the top of my head:

The Tantamount

Personal Mana (based on FF, anyway)

The Opinions Within

Cloud's Sword (if you plan on being a bit of a rough opinionizer)

How about "the Shard" (from waaay back in the day where Cyrstals used to be so very important in FF games)

Or Chocobo's Corner

Or Sid's Chat (being that there is a SID in very FF game)

Ummm...

Chocofeathers
Tarulingering
Crystal Clarity
Vana'dielings

.......?

Best I can muster at quarter till four in the am.

As a writer, I would write the title after the artical was writen. That's normally what writers do anyway. It's easier to write the premiss of your story/artical than it is to craft your paper around a title.

"The Depths of Dolphins" may or may not be about dolphins. It may be totally symbolic for a space journey where the lead character peaks out in untold wisdom, intelligence, and philosophy. But try writing about THAT with "The Depths of Dolphins" being your starting point. ^_^;

With that said, I nominate "The Depths of Dolphins" since you said it was going to be random thoughts, albeit about FFXI. But still, let the children try to see the inner beauty of that one.

Maybe they'll find hidden wisdom, and be better for it.

More names, (I havn't even looked at FFXI, and I've only played FF7, 6, half of 8 before it changed pace, and renounced the rest.)
Fire 3
Matteria High
Magical Fantasy
Digital Fantasy; The thoughts of a longstanding tradition
Firia Rocks
Clouds Strife
Dream Fantasy
Dream Fantasy: The Depths of Dolphins
Don't Panic! It's Fantasy Time!
Online Gamers Guide to Final Fantasy XI
Your Mom Never Had Fantasy Like This
Roly Poly Fantasy
The Dolphins Within
Firia ownz
Fantasy Fantasy Revolution

I dunno how helpful this is. :-D

I have a few suggestions I think work well, but i'll let you take the info and run with it. ^_^

Don't Panic
Write that in large, friendly letters!
hehe, SOMEONE is bound to get that... if nothing else, go with:

NO ONE will get that! :wink:

ooooh.. Don't Panic sounds like a good one...

And I dont think my Linkshell (FFXI version of an org) would go for "Firia Rocks", even tho it is true.

by **Firia** » Sun Dec 21, 2003 7:32 am

Well, I hope you know what Don't Panic is in referance of. ^_^
The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy! ^_^ by Douglas Adams. If you ~just~ called it Don't Panic, then you're basicly taking a vein from HHGttG books.

Hindsight says I shouldn't have suggested that one. ^_^ Meh.

by **Sergeiovich** » Sun Dec 21, 2003 9:21 am

yes, I know about the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy... im re-reading it right now, actually. (I found a paperback version of all 4 books in the series)

There is a reference in AO.. why not in FFXI? hehe

anyway, I did decide on the name, along with the advice of a few friends... I named it "The Shard". Alot of my Linkshell are fans of old-school FF games, and it just seemed to fit.

Thank you all for your advice!
