Name The Project Lore Audio Podcast & Win Prizes!
Our new listeners out there know that we've been struggling to come up with a name for Project Lore's official audio podcast. We've currently recorded an entire trilogy of shows - impressive, I know - but the best title we've been able to come up with is the Dave Edition. It was a hit with at least one fan, our current maximum. Now we are asking, neigh begging, our fans to help us create the perfect moniker. And this time we are offering rewards phat loot.
Tokyopop, makers of the World of Warcraft manga, my most beloved surprise of 2009, has donated three prize packs that will be awarded to the best names. The winners will be chosen at the discretion of Project Lore's contributors, and a vote from Tokyopop will break any tie. Ideas must be submitted as comments to this post. Leave your real e-mail address or we'll have no way of contacting you should you win. If you have submitted ideas on previous posts, please resubmit them for further consideration. You are allowed to submit more than one entry, and more than once. Feel free to explain the reasoning behind your submission as well.
Third Prize: Warcraft: Death Knight (review) and StarCraft: Ghost Academy
Second Prize: Warcraft: Death Knight, StarCraft: Ghost Academy and all of Warcraft: Legends (5 volumes)
A Winner Is You Prize: The entire TOKYOPOP Blizzard library (nine Warcraft books and five StarCraft books)
What We Are Looking For:
Not just any old name will do. No, this is Project Lore we are talking about. We're like politicians, we'll wait an eternity (or the next election cycle) before actually making a decision. If you want to win, then be sure to give us a name that embodies the podcast while hinting at what we cover to potential new listeners. One reader recently suggested "The Bloggers Verdict," and that is an awesome name, but it's not descriptive at all. Project Lore Audio Podcast is highly descriptive, but offers no flair. We are looking for a melding of the two extremes.
Readers, viewers, listeners and trolls, you've been given your mission, should you choose to accept it. You have until March 3, 2010 (that's two weeks) to submit your ideas. Get to work.

'WoW Unlocked!'
A change of achievement unlocked, which I think works for several reasons. I know most of the Bloggers on the PL site are healthily addicted to those shiny boxes. It sums up what the podcast is about; it 'unlocks' the knowledge of WoW you have that others might want, and also is obviously WoW related so people on iTunes or wherever who search for WoW in podcasts would find it. It also doesn't have the word 'lore' in the title, which, considering you don't talk about lore that much, if it did it could either annoy people looking for a lore podcast or put people off who aren't after lore. If you are looking for some relation back to the site though, it can be 'WoW Unlocked!: ProjectLore.com's Audio Podcast' as a full name.
Good luck to all the other competitors, and keep up the good work with the podcast.
(as a side note I had a quick internet search and whatnot and couldn't find anything other podcasts of the same name to make sure it wasn't taken already and couldn't find anything)
