    I like «Warrens of the Damned», it's nice. I also like my own idea the «Role playing Den» a somewhat less imaginative but more descriptive name.

    I think this is a pretty good idea. It's been a while since any new D&D games have been released, and disappointingly, there doesn't appear to be much coming down the road, at least atm (except for the D&D online). It will be good to have a place for other, specific RPGs.

    I'd be pro-Cafe of Lost Dreams, except that it doesn't seem to be very relevant :p It sounds almightily cool, but yeah ... I can see how Alley of Dangerous Angles/Lingering Sighs fits in with what goes on there - but Cafe of Lost Dreams doesn't work in that way ... same with most of the other suggestions though.

    (And where is this place in-game? Never heard of it before - is it in the 1st or 2nd one?)

    Hmm, I don't really have any suggestions - except that it should be from a non-SP covered CRPG.

    We simply accepted it, your Lizardness. Who are we to look for hidden meaning in your sacred words? :p

    Ah, right. It was broken dreams. The secret randomly placed location in Fallout 2, where you would quite a lot of funny people for funny conversations, including some metagaming, like a character complaining about countless reloads when her player was making her steal from people. ;)

    Will this forum be intended for specific stuff about games, ie help, or for generic banter/conspiracy theories etc?

    7th Haven.

    *Ahem*

    I'm more inclined to fling Final Fantasy names at you, as I shall flood the place with FF questions.

    Call it Garden. Or Lunatic Pandora!

    Call it Black Mesa! Heart of Gold! 42!

    Call it Midgard! Or Xen!

    @chev: LOL
    ASSGARD = (A)rea for the (S)tudy of (S)uperb (G)ames not (A)pparently (R)elated to (D)&D.

    We could go for something more intellectual, like 'Chainmail Undies' :grin:

    Actually, make that all RPG discussions, not just on the computer. And the name shouldn't be from any of the games covered on SP, as that'd give the wrong impression, since none of those games would be discussed in that forum anyway.

    It should be something having to do with the elements common in all kinds of role-playing games on the computer and consoles.

    "XP Hunting" maybe.

    :idea: What do RPGs have in common? Pretending to be someone else! :grin:

    Digital Delusions or The Delusional Den?

    Great. Loved Warhammer at first sight but there was no access to it except one session with classmates and a couple of books in the library. ;)
