I thought I'd regurgitate this ancient thread, both for fun and as a way of floating names for my mini-zine idea. This will be a small zine, done as something like a companion to S&D, with a scope extending beyond PBM stuff. It will work off the "slow gaming" concept recently discussed around here -- heavy, involved gaming experiences, wherever they may be found. PBM is part of that scope, but so is the euro-boardgame movement, certain PC games and MMOs, and even fantasy sports.
Some name ideas:
- PROG Gaming (Proactive-Reflective Organized Gameplay) or just PROG
- Fin Whale (ancient, mostly submerged, asymmetric markings, high momentum)
- Ixnay's Editorial Dispatch
- PONG (Pictures from Outside Neural Gaming or some other such acronym)
Possible sub-titles:
- gaming at the speed of thought
- gaming for the heavily caffeinated
any thoughts? rotten tomatoes?
