Whatever alisae's other faults, lolbalance was a very accurate title for alisae when it was given.

Okay, lets see what I can do here...

GIFted
is easy, but I like it a lot.
I like an idea with
HieroGIFics
because they were a language in pictures but that needs some tuning.

Honestly the hard "G" makes this a lot tougher Imma have to work on it a bit and get back to y'all

Welp, I'm back to square one. I thought I was brilliant, merely a copycat though.

But lol balance is clearly an Ali thing
There are many Deepwolves
It’s also why I was extremely dismayed at my Title Troll title. My username grants the possibility of a very clever username pun if people want to go with the “untapped potential” idea
Btw I see nothing wrong with saying this because mastina effectively proposed the basis for the title, I am just trying to guide it to something more interesting

Also I like .PeNG (capitalized that way)

Like yes it is similar to Kison’s but it’s still distinct in a way and similar traits are being titled there (I think).

Yeah, Dannwolf sounds really dumb.

I like either deep wolf or as an alternative: scum puppy.

With regards to a post RC made about Dann being like a puppy who had his ice cream taken away.

I like the idea of some variant of PENG for PenguinPower, and if that title were passed, would leave the capitalization choice up to PP, but before I pass it, I'd prefer more discussion on the idea.

feel that it would be bad form to have more than one title with the *exact* same rationale
even if the username pun is opportune

You could go "dot peng" but .peng with some form of capitalization seems better.
I'm not familiar enough with Kison's posting to know whether there's too much adjacency or not but I think it's a valid thing to want to factor in
"Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"
"Well, I..."

P En G with the spaces is my preference based on the phonetics.

I could also go for something along the lines of Emperor Penguin as he's clearly gone mad with power. (Reference to his being a long standing (the longest standing?) Listmod and his willingness to lean into bad jokes about abusing his power).

I'm glad at least 1 person understood the phonetics pun I was going for. That said, dropping the spaces mimics a file extension more closely so that's good too.

I think most people would rather celebrate PP's image posting rather than his abuse of mod discretion in his title. Not sure if you can do both. emperor.peng? seems meh.
There's also, I feel like -all- our mods celebrate arbitrary and capricious behavior and abuse of mod discretion. It is truly beautiful. I think it is less unique to PP than the way he prefers to communicate using images.
