Short version: In this thread, post suggestions for a custom rename of my baghlah, painted black and green, currently named Gross Salmon. Submissions should be valid according to the current rules on the subject (see http://yppedia.puzzlepirates.com/Official:Services#Ship_Renaming_Rules) and not already be taken on Midnight. I will arbitrarily choose a winner and use that entry, in part, in full, or not at all in actually renaming my ship. The winner will receive some arbitrary prizes, including, but not limited to, PoE and arbitrary trinkets. Other entries may also receive prizes. The contest will remain open for as long as I feel like it! (I'll edit this post when it is no longer). Slightly Extended version: So apparently Borg is not a English word other than a proper noun, and so I am not allowed to have a Borg Sphere to go along with my Borg Cube. (Everything was so much easier in the good old days.) Switching Sci-Fi franchises, Daedalus was also not allowed. Since it names an OM and is definitely only a proper noun, I'm not even going to try Prometheus. Since I'm out of inspiration, I'm turning to you, avid forum-goers and sometimes-nerds, out of desperation. So, I'm arbitrarily offering up arbitrary prizes, because I feel like it. I will hurt anyone who suggests Galactica. ---------------------------------------- Beartooth

Baghlah means mule (feminine) in Arabic. It was basically a cargo vessel but pirates did use it. I think it says something like that on YPPedia. Maybe you could name it playing off its History. Something like Deep Sea Bengal (as it's from that area and it's also tiger) Deep Sea Mule (lol) or Dark Seaweed Widow Maker Sudden Death Night Rambler Apocalypso Unreel Ship Happens would be funny, but not sure if they would ok it. Cruise Missile If these didn't help, best of luck with the rename. ---------------------------------------- Seatexan - on the Midnight side of Cerulean LOW RACK PRICES AT DRESSED TO KILL - NAMATH Always looking for Pollack Sloops! |

As usual I may have gone a little overboard. (Splash) Bear names: Arcadius: Latin form of Greek Arkadios, meaning "of Arcadia." The place name Arcadia was derived from the word arktos, meaning "bear." Arcas: Arcas was the individual who was supposed to have been served to Zeus as a test of the god's divinity, but he managed to escape. Even one of the synonyms for bear used by the Greeks, bee-wolf (for the bear's love of honey), managed to make it into legend. Bear Grizzly bear Black bear Brown bear Sun bear Panda bear Polar bear Naked Bear or Bear naked (not sure if this will be allowed) Big bear Giant bear Growling bear Roaring bear Ferocious bear Dancing bear Circus bear Honey bear Gummy bear Care bear Furry or Fury (angry) bear Fuzzy bear Fozzie bear (The Muppets) Lots-O-Huggin Bear (Toy Story 3) Pooh bear Baloo bear Rupert bear (Family Guy) Smokey bear Yogi bear Boo-Boo bear Brother bear Snuggle bear Little bear Teddy bear Chicago bears The Three Bears Bear claw Bear paw Bear hug Bear cub Bear pelt Bear necessities Bear jaw Tooth names: Tooth and Nail Root canal Crown tooth Canine tooth Eye tooth Molar tooth Incisor tooth Wisdom tooth Wise tooth Sharp tooth Missing tooth Broken tooth Pulled tooth Smiling tooth Shiny tooth White tooth Black tooth Green tooth Tooth fairy Toothache ---------------------------------------- ~Songmuse~ Captain of Midnight Stars Check out Thread to Toe on Epsilon!

Unfortunately, Voyager is taken on Cerulean :( That would have been the winning entry, oh yeah, and this is now over, because, meh. I might still pick a winner though, if I feel like it. ---------------------------------------- Beartooth
