I would call it Boxer Shorts and my logo would be underpants w/ palm trees on them!

+1 for Legion, OpenBox is 2nd best for me.
That reminds me of a program I wrote a few years ago. . Here's a screenshot of the GUI.Quote:

Haha that's great! I was thinking, maybe the logo could have like 5 stick figures all wearing the boxer shorts.Quote:

Well its not for the dumbest of us but I like
Vitruvian
Its picture suggests a form of multiplicity plus the drawing is by Leonardo da Vinci
And I might liken the two of you in the fact that you would be considered an artist to me
especially since I'm an HKN user and i think it is definitely a work of art
and to top it all off I suggested it way back on page seven which makes it way cooler than everyone else's :PQuote:

I don't know if the results deserve to be called "art" but I feel that way about the program. It's going to be fun to rewrite it from scratch and do it much better this time around.
Mr. Vitruvian makes me think of Kali / Durga. One of the advantages of calling the program Kali or Durga would be, there's plenty of excellent public domain art I can use in the program. I've been looking for art for "Legion" but haven't found anything suitable.

After I said people might not understand "Legion," a friend told me privately, "Call it ShortBus." :)
Infinox
Infibox
Infinibox
etc.
Basically a mixture of 'infinity' and 'box'. 'Infinity' because you shouldn't limit yourself. 'box', well 'cause you're boxin'.
Heh.. I use an app called Expresso for tweaking and creating regular expressions.Quote:

So if you make the name Legion have a logo that represents it (Rank and file of all WoW/Other MMO races) and have the catchphase something to do with controlling of an army.
Either way I think Legion is the best name to date.

I understand what you are saying, Legion is typically a very large group of soldiers(10k in Roman times), and we dont really control that many of them. However from a naming perspective what Legion represents works fine (IMO)Quote:

Strikeforce also sounds kinda cool, and fits better with the size.
Just my thoughts on the matter anyway.
Also this is Wikipedias say on Legions (Yes I know how unreliable wikipedia is) and that actually fits really well.
The Roman legion was the basic military unit of the ancient Roman army. In modern times, however, the term "legion" usually denotes a special unit clearly distinguished from others, often including soldiers with either a specific national or ethnic origin and/or a specific political, ideological or religious allegiance. A full-strength legion contained 10,000 men, though it was not uncommon for most legions to be undermanned due to previous battles.
EloxboX would be the best imo
Legion, Hydra and Chimera jumps out me :) because, they all that " we are many things" going on.
Well I'll vote for Hydra i like it most Legion is good as well
But Hydra represents a single being with multiple heads which could be viewed as one player multiple toons
also as a side note Goro from MK is baddass
What would be your cut of the profits :D?Quote:

It's hard to make money with open source projects, though you can usually cover costs with the support charges.
all fairness a name should be something that possibly relates to you the creator.
if your name is fred the maybe start looking mixing up some stuff all in relation to you and your software
example
fred-boxer
obviously be more creative...
......surname? intials + i dunno!!!!
my old mans business names all evolve from moons in the solar system.
When someone mentioned Legion I assumed the Biblical reference
The Gospel of Mark, 5:9, describes the following in the country of the Gadarenes:
Quote:
And he (Jesus) asked him (the man), "What is thy name?" And he answered, saying, "My name is Legion: for we are many."
If you are counting opinions, perhaps I could also support:
Typhon & OpenBox
already mentioned anything else I like previously.
OpenMultiBox.net and OpenSourceMultiBox.com are still available :(
Personally I dislike Legion, but couldn't explain why. Too gothic?
TBH, if it was good software I would enjoy using it even if it was called PooBox!
That's it name it PooBox lol. Lots of good ideas there, like Hydra.
Yes. My inspiration was James Venamun/Father Karras in Exorcist 3. (strictly speaking, it was Kinderman that said it, but whatever. ;))Quote:

While reading this thread my first thought was "Hydra" - then you meantioned "Dragon" and I thought about the legend of Jason from greek mythology - and Dragon's Teeth popped into my head.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon%...eth_(mythology)
I still think Hydra is the best name but DragonTeeth.Net is available.
Legion is good too, but Hydra is the best name so far - and if you're worried about people knowing what a hydra is ... at least they exist in WoW :rolleyes:
I seem to remember... ah yes... I don't think hydra is something you want to touch for a software name... the black copters will circle your house.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydra_(software)
How bout Juicebox?
Damn. Hydra was getting to be my favorite, but that probably rules it out. :(Quote:

I don't think the entry in wikipedia about a group disbanded in 2007 should prevent the reuse of Hydra for a mboxing software now...
Voodoo is nice too (and some obscure healbot clone similar name shouldn't either matter) but doesn't seem very multiboxing ?
Legi-O-box ;)
Use the acronym generator to come up with something original. :D
