Strategy Game Collaboration

Experimental RTS/Space sim Collaborative Coding Project.
The goal is to design a game with structure/settings/balance of Starcraft and scale of Eve Online(i.e. huge space battles, space empires,etc).
Though this wouldn't stop anyone from contributing code/feedback/criticism, i'll be coordinating the project.
All code/ideas should be posted in this and subsequent threads which i'll start as needed.
step #1: We will collaboratively create a name for our project.
Each suggestion must explain why this name fits the project and why its better then any other generic name.

Yes, agree with this 100%. Nothing will get done otherwise. Lisp is a fucking stupid idea because no one knows it.

Just look at those language popularity graphs I linked earlier. PHP and Perl (followed by Javascript, C# and Ruby) are used almost exclusively for web content. Java is used almost exclusively for servers and a range of mobile devices. And VB is used almost exclusively for business applications.

By contrast, Python (the only other language in the top ten besides C and C++) is used everywhere. It runs a growing number of websites (e.g. YouTube is written almost entirely in Python, and Google uses it for tons of stuff). It runs tons of userland tools and GUI apps on modern Linux desktops.

And yes, it is used for games, as evidenced by the various Python game engines (e.g. PyGame) and the Python language bindings for prominent open source game engines (e.g. Python-Ogre, PyCrystal). Fuck, Python has bindings for *everything*.

Lisp today is used in precisely zero useable video game frameworks right now (You couldn't even license GOAL from Sony if you wanted to). Look how big Ogre3D is; it comprises probably hundreds of thousands of lines of code. You plan to rewrite all that in Lisp instead of just re-using what's available?

Here's a success story using Python-Ogre:

FV, if Lisp is still on your list and Python isn't, then you're crazy. You're just trolling, or you're not making logical, rational, reasoned decisions. Your list was built with absolutely no research. This is a joke. Why am I still typing.
