Let's give the Tour's ginormous tent-thing a name! - The Claw...it's official

[mama cass]

The Thing From Outer Space!

well it's meant to be a spaceship innit? hah

 

[ZooMacPhisto800]

How about a poll? I'm convinced BIG JIM will come out on top

How do we make a poll?

I think we've got a couple of contenders here...

"Crab" sucks, no thought to it whatsoever... let's nip this in the bud.

 

[Jive Turkey]

I think only premium members can make polls. Maybe Sicy would set one up for us?

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

who cares... whatever we decide to call it somebody's just gonna come up with some dumb acronym to abreivate it useleslly

 

[Tiger Edge]

Centered Radial Axial Bandstand

or CRAB for short

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Centered Radial Axial Bandstand

or CRAB for short

I like this

you can call the struts the "CRAB legs" and the GA pit the "CRAB bucket"

I disagree:

The new name is the abbreviation. Instead of calling it the "giant metallic Tent under which U2 performs", we call it the:

Guantaflope
Claw
GaZooboo
Lunar Lander
Zoolander

Guantaflope might itself be abbreviated to Guanta, but I'm cool with that... it's not like we're going to go from the Guantaflope to "G"... that works for song titles. Besides, short song titles, don't get abbreviated anyway... Ultraviolet does not equal "U"



Sicy,

Can you make a poll, please?

where is CRAB?

Are your referring to the guantaflopesupports and the guantaflopecanopy?

 

[Tiger Edge]

No.

It's either crab or U2 and I walk away from this whole thing.

 

[ZooMacPhisto800]

where is CRAB?

If Crab is the chosen title, then all our efforts will have been in vain. And, I, for one, would be mildly disappointed.

Why do you leave out Big Jim?

 

[ZooMacPhisto800]

Why do you leave out Big Jim?

It's cool Bro, just a mild oversight... any legit names shall be accepted for the Poll. I just didn't have time to review the thread names... so, following the proper procedure:

1. I propose "Big Jim" be added to the Poll

2. I'm going to go ahead and assume that Jive Turkey is going to second my motion

3. Motion accepted


The revised list of names to be included in the Poll is:

Guantaflope
Claw
GaZooboo
Lunar Lander
Zoolander
Big Jim




I hope Sicy sees this soon, time is of the essence...

 

[pepokiss]

Guantaflope ftw!

 

[Jive Turkey]

phew!

Sorry, not enough posts from you.


Crab it is.


Thank you.

Is it time to reinstate IAA (Interferencers Against Acronyms)?

 

[RedRocksU2]

ITTAGI

(I think that's a good idea)

 

[Sicy]

Give me a list of choices and I'll add a poll to this thread.

I reviewed the thread and this was what I came up with:

Guantaflope
Claw
Lunar Module or Lunar Lander
Gazebo or GaZoobo
Zoolander
Spider
Crab
Big Jim


We've got the same bases covered... that's pretty democratic.

 

[ZooMacPhisto800]

ZooLander should have a capital "L"...

Combing Zoo and the (Lunar) Lander idea...

 

[ABEL]

I think this is what he have:
Guantaflope

Zoolander
Big Jim Burly (Big Jim for short)

no one liked orgasmatron that i posted earlier?

 

[ZooMacPhisto800]

Sicy,

Perhaps we could wait until 20.00 Dublin time at which point, you could use the list that Jive Turkey and I constructed in addition to any new names which, at your sole discretion, are worthy of inclusion.
