It is a neat gimmick, but it doesn't look particularly good as a title, I think.

By nominating fferyllt for "hi guys", you are suggesting that her most noteworthy attribute is use of a common phrase in contexts in which that phrase is normally used. This title nom is terrible.

I wanted fferyllt to get "Interesting " as a title.

Cause she says that as a standalone comment a lot and I think shes interesting. : P

Its probably not actually a very interesting title though.

I've cut way back on "interesting" because it's goodmorning's word of power. The first game she and I played together, the mod wound up adding "Interesting" to the game thread title.

I prefer the former.
Me too. If it's too long for a title, then "Darmok and Jalad" carries the concept.

If we're going off fffery's entry gimmick, I'd find
friendlly
to be a bit more witty.

I don't think it's a good fit, though.
