Choose the 17th Anniversary Badge name!

[Arcanum]

Hi everyone!

 

A few weeks ago, we asked for your help in suggesting names for the 17th Anniversary Badge! There were lots of great suggestions and options, we've narrowed it down to the following five.

 

Now it's time to vote! Please select one of the five options above as the name for the badge. Whichever one has the most votes becomes the badge title.

The poll will be open for one week; so you have until 11:59pm EST on Thursday, April 15th to submit your vote.

 

 

Help Name Me!

 

The badge will be awarded to your character upon logging in anytime during May 2021.  All previous anniversary badges will be available for purchase from Luna in Ouroboros throughout the month of May 2021.

Thanks everyone who took the time to submit name suggestions and provide input! We appreciate you all.

Considering the travel changes that will hit around this time? Unbound.

Nostaligc definitely seems like the least compelling or useful as a badge title to me. I don't really understand how it has so many votes, but I guess it's still very early.

Has it really been 17 years?
Damn... I can feel the wrinkles.

[Glacier Peak]

These are all great selections to choose from, but I went with Legendary!

[Troo]

Clearly we have folks with multiple accounts voting.

For what it's worth, I always try to make a point of only voting once on any poll.   I'll admit that very old polls might be subject to an additional vote from me if I rediscover a thread after several months, but never on an official time-locked poll.

I do wonder if the forum admins and mods can see which accounts have made votes, though.  If not, they may want to write to Invision and request that feature PRONTO.

 

Also, seems some people take exception to Exceptional.

I vote for "Badgey McBadgeFace" personally.......  😛

[YBCosmic]

Unquenchable or Legendary I think both are pretty sick.

[Blue Roses]

One of the initial submissions was Enduring, which I really liked and thought would be in the running. Way better than unquenchable, in my opinion. That said, I'm going with Legendary.

Duplicate suggestions are obviously not eligible.

[Troo]

I already seem to have Legendary, is that a conflict?

 

[Faultline]

That's not a badge.

You can also find Legendary in the Character titles for Natural Origin. But like @Faultline said, it's not a badge name.

[Troo]

Whew!

I look forward to "Legendary Legendary Troo".

Fair enough, but with over 1500 badges in this game, how do you quickly and easily identify duplicates?

If Legendary loses I at least got a very helpful link out of this.

How Legendary is he?

 

 

 

[Bionic_Flea]

I would choose none of the above.

 

Since one of those will be selected, Legendary* is the least bad choice.

My cow toon would like to request Legendairy. 🐄

[BjorJlen]

   I vote Legendary as well. However I have a suggestion, though I am sure it would require a lot of work, and may not be doable in game.

 

   How about creating a badge that switched names once a month or so between the three best names in the list? That way the badge would be super unique, and sorta fun to have if all of a sudden it switched right before our eyes on any character we saw in game. You know, first you were Legendary, but all of a sudden you become Unquenchable instead. Talk about a identity crisis lol. It's way to late to do this, but maybe for the next badge...?

 

   Just a thought...
