Name
I'm sure i'm not the only person who's thought of this but shouldn't we give the city a more suitable name? DMI, The Dynamic Project, and Dynamic Map Idea are good project names but they aren't very good city names. Any ideas?

Re: Name
General_Nate city...
Hmm, I like Lustburg. I've always wanted to make a city called that.

Re: Name
I personally think it's maybe best to stick to DMI-city, since that's what it is. (with the exception of a good name that also describes the city's main goal the best).
The name DMI makes sure that it stays clear that everyone contributed to this map, giving it a name would cloud that clarity.

Re: Name
Ok, well, here are a few.
Da, Magnificent-Ing (DMI)
Or uh,
The Double Massive Ion-city
Uh, hmm. How about:
The Dynamic Mega Institution
I know these aren't very good, but someone might like them.

Re: Name
@G_N - Ehhh.. no.
The project will probably remain as DMI and such, but if anyone has a catchy, artistic, and original name for the city that we all agree on, it'd be nicer to call it that rather than a TLA (three letter acronym). I was thinking Avaria for some reason. If no one agrees on one we can just stick to DMI.

Avaria? That sounds very nice.

Re: Name
If you are an old movie buff, we can name it the same as they named the city in Paint Your Wagon.
"No Name City"
"No Name City"

Re: Name
Avaria.... I like it. Jawapolis... That's good too.
But I think the name should start with an 'A'.
Here are a few:
Alagaësia (al-uh-GAY-zee-uh) (You get a cookie if you can tell me what that is from.)
Albtorix (all-bu-TOR-ix)
Azurda (azz-UR-da)
What do you think?

Re: Name
I don't see why there needs to be a name. Rather than going through a list of silly names (Jawapolis? Really?), can it just not have a name at all? It's not like there's a different city to confuse it with in the map. It can just be "the city" as it has been.

Re: Name
Maybe we should start a poll, and see what other people think. And if we are to do a name, we start another poll and the winning name, well, wins.

Maybe Rep can make his decision, rather than having a poll make it for him, since it's his project.

I like that name a lot, seems to fit the city pretty well. DMI is fine too but I would rather have a name.

Good job!
Here is your cookie!

Yeah, these are all good names, but Rep has the final decision.
