Help name the Gaming League!

The Gaming League at the Columbus Metropolitan Library needs a name. Rather than relying on us dorky librarians to come up with a name, we want you to do the honors! Post your name ideas in a comment and we'll take the best suggestions and turn them into a poll where YOU will vote for your favorite. Post as many suggestions as you'd like! I'm sure there are some genius names out there...just waiting to come to life.

But think FAST! You only have until Monday, May 26 to make a suggestion. Then look for the poll, where you can vote on the selected names, to run May 27 - June 1.

Special thanks to Game Crazy for donating the Teen Summer Reading Club grand prize to each location: a Nintendo DS! Their sponsorship of Teen Summer Reading Club and the Gaming League is invaluable.

the league name should be simple. One word... "NOOBS" or L337 (leet speak for elite)

Anonymous said...

What, seriously? "Noob"?? No way! Cieg gets my vote.

Anonymous said...

i like P.W.N. [People of the Winning Nation]
Cieg is cool too
if anyone can come up with an acronym for TRABAJABAMOS that name will win my vote :)
(means "we worked"[imperfect form] in Spanish
it's the most awesome spanish word in existence!

I have a perfect name. The C.G.N, the columbus gaming league. Brilliant!

If theres shirts, i have a logo and slogan. the logo is what looks like an xbox 360, but it's a book with a controller attached to it. and the slogan is: reaing and gaming: different, fun: both deliver. Brilliant!

Anonymous said...

change to slogan. Reading and gaming: different but when it comes to fun, both deliver. Brilliant!

The Colombus Library should get some games that we could rent.

I think you should name them "The Nintendo Buds"

Anonymous said...

Dude, Nintendo Buds? That sounds like some sort of wimpy name for a stupid little kids video game! Geez! Pick a name that doesn't sound "G" rated!

Wow.. Everything has to be some kind of complicated name thing, like G.A.M.E.R.S or P.W.N . I like the Teen Gamers Club. Easy,not cheesy, and not the name of a videogame that is for 3 year olds (Nintendo Buds?????Come on!)
