Category Creation!

Ooo, can we get some categories? I propose creating the following:

  • WIGO
    What is going on in the world. News and happenings
  • Club
    Hobbies and activities.
  • meta
    discussion about the board.
  • Rage
    Because wrath won’t cut it.

@everyone, what do you think?

Games? For stuff like Associate!Associate!, Gifversations, and counting to 10,000?

Clearly, Lounge needs to be a category. What’s a simile of boing? There should be a category for articles … perhaps ‘articles’ or ‘comments welcome’ where we can play being authors

“Chatter” in place of Lounge?

I like the idea of a community driven news service too. It’s a little complicated to pull off, but if we don’t have it, I don’t think this place will thrive.

As for sproing or bounce, I prefer to keep the allusions to the origin of this site more subtle. I’m the only one pushing the HMS moniker, but how about 'hoist!"

Okay, that sounded cheesy as soon as I wrote it. Point is, let’s not try to be too boingy.

Ah, yes. I’m headed outside to engage in some bouncy bouncy fun fun fun. Because I’m the only tigger, I’m the only one!

Maybe… #Ahoy!

Would “whatever” just be a single catch-all category?

Entertainment - for discussing music, television, movies, theatre, games (both video and tabletop), books and anything else I have missed that would fit here

It doesn’t have to be called entertainment, I’m just not feeling particularly inspired about names right now.

Or maybe “Play” instead of games. The name is not important, but the space for such ridiculousness is.

In the oldentimes they had the Submitterator. How about we make that the category?

I prefer Lounge, it has the feel of…lounging, I suppose, hanging out.

I think I may be feeling nostalgic for an old cyberpunk board I used to hang out on.

I’m feeling a 1920’s underground vibe to this place. Maybe we can rif on that theme with the Lounge title?

I wonder if we can get an art deco theme for the board?
