Title: Villain Group Name?
Post by: Skarlet on 12 October 2005, 07:56:54 am: We need a name for our CoV Supergroup (or Villaingroup, as some people call 'em).

'Forlorn Evil' just doesn't seem... villainous enough.

Any ideas?

Post by: Swifty on 12 October 2005, 08:44:52 am: Hmmm......

using MS word's thesaurus I have come up with

Dejected faith
Abandoned Expectation

and my favourite:

Hopelss desire.

they were done by just using alternate words

Hopless desire.

Hopless desire aka Beerless Lust

How about:

Secret Masters of Fandom
Giant Robot Sea Monsters
Evil Geniuses for a Better Tomorrow
Fiendish Fluoridators
W.I.T.C.H. - Women's International Terrorist Conspiracy from Hell

All blatently lifted from the Illuminati card game but illustrative of a high standard of supergroup naming options.

But being without beer is enough to turn anyone into a villian ;)

Anyone else get the feeling Swifty isn't exactly "hopless" at the moment?? :D

I feel sorry for that cucumber... Yep, the cucumber... At least the geko can fight back... And probably win too.... ;D ;D ;D

EDIT: But seriously.... group name...

Cucumber liberation front?
(no no no no bad ZM, bad ZM! ;D)

REALLY seriously.... (beware, thesaurus at large....)

Wretched Promise
Forsaken Ambition

Looking for antonyms creates supreme oddness...

How about:

Cattle Mutilators
Clone Arrangers
Goldfish Fanciers
(Im)moral Minority
Reformed Church of Satan
Robot Sea Monsters
Semiconscious Liberation Army
Voudonistas

I set one up using my old Freedom SG name and adding the words 'badboy posse' to the end. 100% refusal to join rate at present.

Forlorn Outlaws seems to be doing fairly well :)

Still, anything that makes Swifty feel 'pretty' has to be a good thing (except that dress you wore last week Swifty, that didn't suit you at all, take it back, exchange it for the red one!)
