Dynamo,

 

It's your old friend Death Tribble again. Guess who has been scouring for new names and now has another large bundle ?

I have plundered the Character Posting game, the images from Mutants and Masterminds fan art and the Superhero Images here.

 

Yup. I have about 650 at the moment which even with pruning will take us past the 3/4 mark. However do you want to hit 8,000 with this ?

I rather would as it would put us 80% of the way there.

 

So while I am scouring for more new names, let me know what you think.

Gimme everything you've got Thursday. I've got Friday and Saturday off this week, and I'm between cramming episodes (passed my Windows 2000 Server certification last week). I'll have the time review a list of hundreds, and I've already laid in a supply of European ales, so I won't be too harsh during the weeding-out process. ;)

No sweat.

 

For a while, I wondered how long it would be 'til everyone told me to get lost for being such a tyrant about sticking to genre and getting rid of stupid names. But aside from our British contingent (luv ya, guys), I haven't caught much flak.
