i'd rather have a good title rather than a funny title

They're not mutually exclusive

[Venmar]

just cause it's funny or makes sense doesn't excuse it for being too long

[vonflare]

Mastina

worth a thousand words

[Gamma Emerald]

Mastina

worth a thousand words

nth

[Alisae]

Going with vonflare's suggestion I think

Worth Thousands of Words

is more fitting then

Worth a Thousand Words

[Kublai Khan]

Nom mastina ->

Unabridged

[Chara]

Worth a Thsouand Words

nth

, i like this one.

[Not_Mafia]

But mastina takes thousands of words to convey something very simple, she does the opposite of what that phrase means

That's why it's funny

[Chara]

that's why Alisae changed it. to "[a picture is] worth thousands of words."

[Gamma Emerald]

prefer the original idea tho

[Thestatusquo]

Nom mastina ->

Unabridged

I like this but also think it doesn't quite capture all that is mastina.

[RadiantCowbells]

Don't think we should title nom mastina anytime soon

[xyzzy]

nominate mastina for

Hamlet

, Act 2, Scene II, Line 193

it's an overly complex and esoteric way of referring to the act of reading lots of text

[Nexus]

I don't really think mastina needs a third title.

[SleepyKrew]

fourth

[Shaziro]

I don't think there's anything inherently wrong with giving Mastina a title on this account if a good one comes up, but I think if we have to keep workshopping and trying to find one, it might just mean that there isn't really a good one to be thought of at the moment, and I do think that if we are actually putting in effort to find a title for somebody rather than it coming up "naturally". Quotations there because I think it's rare that a title is perfect right off the dome, but it seems like the good titles aren't the ones where everybody says "Hey this person needs a title, let's all sit and try to think of one". I also don't think that a title has to encapsulate everything about a person in order to be a good title. Then again, I'm very new to the site, compared to a lot of the folks here, so this could all be completely wrong :^)

Nth

[animorpherv1]

Shaziro's pretty damn right, by the way.

[Kublai Khan]

Naw. Sharizo is pretty wrong. Mastina has had 2-3 titles already and whenever we "workshop" a title, she'll hover and suggest and nudge the title to get something "perfect" and we just give up.

Also, great titles used to naturally spring up. Lots of crap and mediocre ones too, but people didn't used to rush to "second, third, nth" every half-assed suggestion and force it to become a topic of conversation.

Of course this thread would also go dormant for a few weeks at a time so that there wasn't the creative burn-out we see today. Most riffs on title ideas come off as really forced.

[Alisae]

For example, see any RC or alisae title
