Location: Far Far Away. Nowhere Near You. Really.

Which has the added virtue of not being a well-used card-related name that sounds like a cliché.

I really like Gunslingers.

I don't really like Unslingers, when I say it out loud. It just...feels funny. I like the pun in theory, but in practice it just doesn't seem to roll off the tongue like "beekeepers" or "cloudmakers" or "metaurchins."

But as always, just my $0.02. Smile

--Ms. White Chocolate Phaedra Joker

(No. I am not making any of that up. The site gave me a name including "chocolate" and "joker."

All on its own. Shocked)

Rather too late to contribute this, I know, but I've already started thinking of us as Floppies.

I still like "Wild Cards" or "Jokers".

And I think hard core ARGN folks should be called

ARGNaughts.

They also gave us the Fellowship of the Dead, which I think is pretty cool.
