Alright folks it’s time to choose a name. Since we’re not strictly a Minnesota roost I thought it best to eliminate any name ideas (even good ones) that were obviously MN-specific. Without further ado, please vote:

  • The Frostsweepers
  • Grey Ducks
  • Loon Squad
  • North Coast United
  • The Raspberry Berets
  • something else

Logo(s) to follow a name selection. Do not disappoint @BaxterMSP any further

Ice-cold Assassins

if I choose from that list, it’s the Berets

5 votes all for different names. Just go vote for the Frostsweepers, guis.

Off to a fantastic start

I keep thinking about @JScore mention about incorporating Paul Bunyan, and keep thinking of a logo that incorporates an axe crossed with a golf club.

Not sure about a fitting name though, something like the “Axes of the North” or the “Tomahawks”…I don’t know I generally suck at this type of thing. Or Noresmen or Mauraders if we’re looking for synonyms for vikings?

Or we could just rip off the NLU NCC event and be the Highlanders. Already has a logo that I think @MackReiter now owns the rights to. :rofl:

I can’t like Grey Ducks because of The Duck Club.

PB is interesting because MN and WI both lay claim to him in some way, and I like Highlanders. But… You could’ve put these ideas on the spreadsheet

:axe: of the North

Pardon my shitty :art: job. Could also incorporate the North Star logo around the N?

North Star is a great theme but it’s squarely a Minnesota thing and our Roost, though centered here, is not

I guess I see North Star as representing the colloquial “North” and not as Minnesota specific.

And if that’s the case and the NSS is a Roost event, you planning on changing the name to something less MN specific?

“I’m an artist, but the art is shit” or something. In case the Grey Ducks catches on here’s a jumping off point
