Alright its time! Please vote for a name u think will best represent this website and the server. If u choose other please post what name u would like it to be, dont vote other just because u dont like the name and u dont have anything to back it up! !
If there is a name up there u like but think needs a little tweaking plz vote for that name and then post what u think should be tweaked. _________________ {xCBx}BiGbOsS

And as for a name I would recommend something that sounds "inviting or exciting".
Could be a million different names.
But I thought of three so far:
---The Total Package---
---The Collection---
---Pirates Cove-BEWARE--- _________________

Well Hook has that "pirate" theme working.
So you can't forget:
---H & B Dead Man's Chest---
---Walk the Plank---
---Buccaneer From Hell---
---Cruisin for a Bruisin---
---The Devastation of H & B---
---Havoc H & B Style---
---Hook & Boss go Ballistice---
All right I need a drink. _________________

Currently you have 4 votes.
(mine doesn't count because I don't play there and Hook's shouldn't count so make that 2).
The game styles you're offering are not new.
So, if you want to draw attention to your server you should make the Server name "Unique/Different/Interesting".
Otherwise people will pass over your server when in search for a game/server.
Just my professional UT opinion and common sense.
On the other hand if you're just looking for a name...pick what you like. _________________

All votes count - if they didn't we wouldn't have a vote - we wanted everybodies opinion.
We know the game types are not new but one IS fairly new (MH) the 4 gametypes we offer all at one time is rare!
If people like the server they will stay and play.
From what I've experienced and have seen - when people play a server others follow if the server is any good at all.
So far we have got some regulars that seam to really like it.
Meat - I have ran servers for many years - even back before Hermskii started so i am not new to this.
Just a little spouting off LOL  _________________ {xCBx}Hook (Site Administrator)

Votes/regulars do count...if that is what you're after?
Is it?
Because that's all you'll get.
But if you want a crowd you'll need a "Name" that will attract new people.
Correct?
Because Names listed in the UT Server Browser and word of mouth are all we have basically.
(And I've run a server for less years than you and Hermskii and I know that)
And how will people know you have "4 game types" if you don't advertise as such?
So...you do the math...currently we have close to 430 server with about 150-175 players.
How are you going to get the numbers?
And Hook...I'm not being a smartass but a realist. I want you, me and two or three other
server to grow and populate.
I maybe wrong....but I doubt it....lol

Yes - I take MEAT's suggestions seriously and with great respect JackO.
And I think he is right about alot of it.
I also want to advertise the 4 gametypes - that is what I voted for!
I thank MEAT for his comments and will take it all into consideration for sure!
Well - let's keep hacking away at this - think of some more! (even you MEAT LOL )(really!)
Oh PS: (I too took some Marketing classes and advertising - I currently work in the graphics end of that business and have for most of my life. LOL arrg)  _________________ {xCBx}Hook (Site Administrator)

Okay...one more Server suggestion from me.
It was an obvious one after I saw Hook's avatar.
---SKULL---
Or any variation of such. _________________
