The OFFICIAL UG@ Pilot group name meme!

Ever since the term "Alpha Numbers" was first introduced into SRW, it has been common for the PC group to come up with some name to call themselves.  The Round Knights from SRW Reversal, the Blue Savior in SRW Destiny, Warter and then Neue Warter in SRW W, LOTUS in SRW L, ZEUTH and ZEXIS in the SRW Z games...

SRW UG had it easy.  We were the EDF-turned-GDF.  UG@ could do with a good name that fits the group onboard the Chalice.

So yeah, this is an open prompt of sorts for people to propose names.  You can voice support for various names people come up with and if one is a runaway hit we'll go with that.  Otherwise we'll take maybe the top 3 or 4 and have a poll to determine what the name will be.

The Autobots and their organic sidekicks.

Nope

Damn.

Dat Everything Squad?

I'll leave it to Steam to explain the reference, then.

I think I'm in just as much need to get an explanation!

[identity profile] red-devil-02.livejournal.com 2011-11-10 06:05 am (UTC)(link)
Sorry then. It's the /m/emetic name for the hypothetical Selena/Calvina/Xine angstfiesta that could appear in an OG game.

I thought that was the "MY SQUAD IS DEAD" Squad

[identity profile] red-devil-02.livejournal.com 2011-11-10 05:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, but look at the three survivors.

[identity profile] skimpypilotsuit.livejournal.com 2011-11-10 05:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't lump Xine in with those other two. Her squad's still alive. Just stuck in the thing from Orguss, and they're saved in the end.

Hey that didn't stop her from going all REVENGE ON KEI...REVENGE

Though to be fair she wasn't as crazy as Calvina.

What about "Crusaders" or something like that? Basing on the ship being the Chalice, and that in religious definitions, a chalice is a holy artifact relating to the Holy Grail, and that the Crusades were ostentatiously to get the Grail...

[identity profile] wimpy-cure-ever.livejournal.com 2011-11-10 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
There's already the Divine Crusaders, who are a part of Sangar (and thus the Banpresto Original)'s history.

So, I don't think that's a good idea >_>;

Spoilers: I have plans for the DC, too, hence their cameo on one of my missions.

[identity profile] thestrayhawk.livejournal.com 2011-11-10 08:02 pm (UTC)(link)
This line of logic isn't that bad though.

How about "Avalon"?

AAAAAA-VAAAAAAAA-LOOOOOOON!

...I'll shut up now.

NUARC

Neo-United Armament Revolutionary Combatants.

I'm trying to shoot for some tarot reference here...

Aces of Chalice (as opposed to the Ace of Cups)
Knights of Chalice (again, Knight of Cups)

I think for a group name, "Grail" works better than "Chalice".

[identity profile] getter-class.livejournal.com 2011-11-10 07:47 am (UTC)(link)
Not being a dumbass cybertronian this time. I always just thought of our group as "The Chalice". Any reason we can't just stick with that?

[identity profile] white-deviling.livejournal.com 2011-11-24 11:56 am (UTC)(link)
...I thought The Chalice sounded fine too.

[identity profile] vjockey.livejournal.com 2011-11-11 10:34 am (UTC)(link)
Considering for several SRW games the name of the group is based on the "Letter" (at least for the ones I've played.) why not someone try to come up with something starting with a U?

Universal Generations Alliance

See what I did there?

You win everything everywhere forever.

I was gonna say United Grail Alliance, for partially same theming (and keeping part of the name out of it).

[identity profile] azure-savior.livejournal.com 2011-11-14 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
Already said this to Camiu but just getting this out here so that everyone else can see it.

I think having a group with an acronym based on the the letters UGA could get a little confusing later on, and on top of that feel a little forced too.

Captain Chalice and the Chaliceers?

Also, I approve of the SRW W name.
