I can only guess what the name will be.

So far so good. Onward and upward!

So basically a city full of sharks that sound like Curly from the 3 stooges? https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B9gKzBkIgAAAlqL.jpg

The Fifth Horseman

More inclined to expect... "Chatroom Of Capes"
We were heroes. We were villains. At the end of the world we all fought as one. It's what we did that defines us.
The end occurred pretty much as we predicted: all servers redlining until midnight... and then no servers to go around.

Somewhere beyond time and space, if you look hard you might find a flash of silver trailing crimson: a lone lost Spartan on his way home.

Still, better than "Walk or fly around and hold up a torch by yourself".

I suggest that whatever it gets called, it NOT have "City of" at the front, lest NCsoft get shirty.

Power Gamer

It takes a village to raise a child. And it takes a villain to explain the value of lunch money.

Perhaps just "Icon 2.0" would be sufficient rather than renaming it entirely?

I was thinking that too. Seems more appropriate, and low key.

FWIW this falls pretty firmly under parody/fair use. If this name was used it would be in more risk of getting flak from Jabber people than NCSOFT.

No, because it's completely separate from Icon and I don't want to confuse the two. There may be some surface similarity, but they are based on completely different methods of operation.

I also don't want to rule out the possibility of a future Icon 2.0 that does different but still completely offline things.

:D Hay there codewalker, thanks for all the cool things you have been doing for the community! I know I can't code for beans but I do know my graphics pretty well despite the off center joke at the top of the thread so please let me know if there is anything I could do to help.

I've already taken to calling it City of XMPP, or CoXMPP for short, until an official name arrives.  Reminds me of calling the game "CoX" in the first place.

I was actually pretty impressed with how quickly you came up with the 3D text with correct spacing and everything.

I'm a big fan of Soon, actually :)

A: Are you logged in to Soon?

B: How can I be logged in too soon?  Is something wrong?

A: What do you mean how can you be logged in to Soon?  You should know if you're logged in to Soon.

B: Look if it works I'm going to assume I'm not logged in too soon.

A: Wow, that's pretty insulting.  I'm going to tell Codewalker you said that.

B: Are you on drugs?
