Surely the ³ name is the one that's caught on the most, looking at everyones sigs. Isn't it time we made a decision on this and closed the poll?!! It's been running for ages now!

No problems. I don't think the military has much of a sense of humor either. Except on TV.

Agreed. ³ it is.

...What's the plural? I mean, if I wanted to say, "my fellow [somethings]," what would I use? ³s?

Is that pronounced "to the power of threeists," or "cubedists"?

I think the plural of ³ is of course The ³, as in "The Cubed"

I think the 3 is the way to go... it's simple, it's recognizable... in words, the plural would need to be the Cubed or the Cubists... but aside from the plurality of the name, I like the 3... it's kind of like a secret handshake... anywhere on the net, if you see the small 3 cube beside someone's name, you'll know they must be perplexed Razz

That's exactly why I included an example. "My fellow The Cubed...."

Maybe we should always type ³ and say "Cubists."

I agree with KSG on this one. It flows. Plus, it's still a conversation starter for the uninitiated.

I hadn't even thought of that. Good idea.
