HELP NAME THE NEW "JA KNOWLEDGE PROJECT"

(In case anybody is wondering, I'm putting this post outside the old thread and our new forum to grab the attention of those who wouldn't normally go in there...)

Well folks, we seem to not only have some forward momentum with this Project but also the blessing of the JA gods, so it now seems appropriate to put out the request for a formal name.

We've been using "Knowledge Project" as a general term, but would like the JA membership input. Several suggestions have already been put forward:

The Jedi Academy...
...Holocron
...Database
...Archive
...Handbook
...Guide
...Knowledge Base
...???

What do you think? Like any of these? Have some other ideas of your own? Please provide us with some feedback on this thread. We'll leave it up for a while and count up votes for what the general membership seems to like best.

We appreciate your help.

See the light my ass, my vote stays with Compendium. :cool:

The hologrong.jpg sort of fits in with our current site theme. The libraryscene one is real pretty though.

Why should our government send our soldiers to foreign soil to protect freedom of speech, when our freedom of speech is being taking away everyday by the same government.

Holocron wins in my mind. I'm thinking of making good on my thought of creating a forum thread where people can ask me what they like, on Jedi Lore, History, etc. I might make it my own holocron.

But holocron is a good name.

Jedi do not fight for peace. That's only a slogan, and is as misleading as slogans always are. Jedi fight for civilization, because only civilization creates peace.

Come on now, every Generation X boy wanted to be Luke Skywalker. Is it because he was a whiney farm boy from some backwater hack planet? No, it's because he was a FREAKING JEDI. He could block lasers with his lightsaber. He could levitate droids & rocks & crap with his mind. Come on, he choked two pig dudes with just a simple gesture. He cut off Darth Vader's hand and kicked him down a flight of stairs. He got his @$$ zapped by lightning from the geezer Emperor, stood up and said "s'at all you got b!tc#??"

I say Archives because

1- This will be a record of all things that happen.

2- it is kind of like storing records of what has happened.

So Archives best fits from what i have heard

Archives ;)

I vote holocron

Compedium doesn't sound Jedi'y enough (theres a good word innit ?)and sounds like a board game I once had.

holocron seems to make sense, an archive of information including training techniques, and lessons and stuff from the jedi of old......

Of course I'll move with the masses here but it would be nice to theme it, and make it special.
