I think Evo should change the title fron threqad killer champions to: franzbear. that what everyone refers to it as...
 
Physics news on Phys.org
I'll be happy to change it if enough people want it.
 
He's just trying to get people to forget the purpose of the thread!
:smile:
 
That's like blasphemy.. keep the name!
 
If I did not want to take a nap, I would have voted to keep the original name.
 
I had to vote for "What the *****?" because he listed one of the options as "Thread Killer Chapions" and I don't know what a "Chapion" is! :cry: (Oh and I just got up so I don't need a nap yet. :biggrin: )

Completely changing things that an author has written just doesn't set well with me. I would vote to keep the name the same, but possibly add "(Aka Franzbear)." This would be a good thing to do because the name Franzbear comes up all over the place now. It could help cut down on nooby confusion. :biggrin:

I don't know where Franz is.

Huckleberry is also missing.

Alright, no one else is allowed to stop posting without asking for permission first.
