I checked my mail today and lo and behold, there was a plain white box in my mailbox! I excitedly opened it and it had the RSA baseball cap Ken Roberts had promised to send to me. (This came about from the informal name the shepherd-crook-replacement-plate naming contest). I wish I had a digital camera. It is a black baseball cap with a colorful, stitched image of a Krinkov surrounded by red letters that read Red Star Arms. I plan to wear it tomorrow and scare all the Volvo-driving-soccer-moms. Thanks again. |

damnit! i wore my redstarms tuxedo to last night's charity ball...and the bastages tossed me out for being improperly dressed! guess that rpk embroidered with glitter thread on my lapels was freaking folks out?!?! perhaps it was the bandolier sewn into the cumberbund? |

silly boy!...it was none of the above! Your cumberbund was upside down! the open ridge side goes up to catch the crumbs from the table! Chezziecrackers...can't take some people anywhere! Kudos on the hat! Soooo it looks like my name of "the Pin King" was a bust....oh well back to the Edsel drawing board! |
I get the feeling they didn't go with any name. It occurred to me that they didn't post any of the usual legal and copyright disclaimers regarding the naming contest. I would think they would want us to release all rights to the name they came up with. For instance, what if they went with Clipster and then later I decide to sue them because they used the name I came up with? That would be bad. Not that I would do that; I'd be tickled beyond measure if they did use the name (hint, hint). Also, someone else might have copyrighted the name. Finally, I think they have to ensure that the name isn't something vulgar in another language. What if Clipster sounds just like a Bulgarian epithet for "I wave my privates in your auntie's general direction."? That would be bad, too. So, I guess they don't have a sexy name for the plate. Hey, how about Sexy Plate? |
