"Bob" goes way back to the first SPDG and even before that.

BTW, GoW named all landmass in the PTWDG as

GoW/ND continent = "Bob"
GS/RP continent = "Little Bob"
GS island = "Mini Bob"
Lego/Vox = "Not Bob"

Got spare money?

Vox Publica of course gets my primary vote. Area X should be a major city. The Hood should be our most corrupt city.

Some of the latin names are fine, but I'm tired of the banana names.

I don't see any of the cities I asked for that were in the original naming thread. Why were only cities from the newest thread included? I did not feel compelled to spam another thread with the same suggestion.

I'm also anti-Banana names and anti-Latin names.

looking at the voting trend so far, members generally endorse names that are in honour of Consuls/Ministers and the Banana God while reject names that are in the foreign (Latin, Greek) language.

MZ has a point... Trip has 2 cities (LuxInvicta and Tripoli), does he really need Eye?

BFM has BigFurryCity.

MZ has Zenophobia

Dominae has Dominus.

However, to be fair... the following cities have all been named by me or the name suggestions provided by me:

Power of Victory (and Latin translation), Chiquita, Solace, Arcadia, Heroes' Summit (and Latin translation), and Lumen Musae/Lumentis Bananis (I strongly prefer Lumen Musae, btw).

Granted, none of those are in my honor, but I hardly need a city in my own honor. I'd rather get to name cities cool things, which I've already gotten a chance to do.

All three names have been suggested by other people, I've had no part in it.

And besides, the only reason Lux was named such was because we were going to get rid of it.
