Count me in, would be fun to see the diamond ladders littered with the same name.

I vote for an ESPORTS name though over teamliquid. All caps plz

LOL I can imagine the complaints coming in on the next reset:
"I always get matched against someone named ESPORTS! Fix this plz!!"

I hated it. The solution is to bring back the unique name system that was in place for BW and WC3.

I think ESPORTS is the one winning out, make sure to make it all-caps though!

I'd prefer something ironic like "UNIQUE" or "ONEOFAKIND" or "ORIGINAL."

ESPORTS is okay too, I guess. Why is that everyone's favorite?

What about CHATLANCROSS or something like that? Three features needed (Chat, LAN, Cross Realm Play)

Actually it would probably be better to name it Blizzard. In that way they might see the problem in another light. Of course they might not want people to use that name but i guess a blizzard is hard to have trademarked, unless you are a cloud or something.

should probably be something that sends a message so they dont think it is just a bunch of people trying to promote a website - though they'd get the hint at unique IDs at least.

+ something like "AddChat" would get across two points, we want unique names and chat channels.

They are just gonna ban hammer everyone and send you mails with explanations(i.e.:
"Do you really want chat rooms?")

Don't be TeamLiquid, that just makes the site look bad. Everyone should be Idra and be as well-mannered as possible in every game.

Actually, half should be ridiculously BM and the other half should be gentlemen.

This is only going to work if it is a massive effort. Just getting a few hundred people from this thread isn't going to cut it. You're going to need some kind of concerted effort from a front page post or a cross forum effort from other sites besides Team Liquid.


Oh and Maybe your Nickname should be "CHATROOMS" seeing as this is the entire reason you are getting everyone to make the same nickname.

A few hundred people can make a remarkable difference in the beta. Let's just use 300 people doing this as a base. This is TL, and judging by the poles (unless people are blatantly lieing in an anonymous pole) have a majority of diamond (or old platinum) leagues. The beta currently ~30k players, let's say for highball 20 percent are in diamond. 300 identical names out of 6k total players is definitely noticeable.

NOTE: These numbers are just a baseline example, any rebroadcast retransmission without extent written consent of the national football league is prohibited.

ESPORTS is kind of an inside joke, I don't think that'd get the point across very well.
On a purely personal note, I'd like to show Yellow the beauty of infinitely repeating Starcraft 2 bunkers. -Boxer

This is not 4chan. Unless TL is 100% behind this, you do not represent the entire community, and only tarnish its reputation. Name it something like "esports" or whatever but please don't name it TeamLiquid, there are people here who don't want to be associated with this.

My thoughts exactly when seeing the poll results.
When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.
