Meanwhile, a new trending post appeared on the World of Disorder Forum, posted by [ Chocolate Ice Cream Scoop ]:
I think we should give this area "near the castle" a name. The next group of merchants might already be on their way, and we can't keep calling this area "near the castle" forever, can we?
I suggest everyone leave a comment with the name you think can represent this section. I will close the new comment function in three days and begin a week-long free vote.
Of course, whether the authorities adopt this idea or not is their business. I just think this place needs a code name. If you also think this is a good idea, you can check out this post.
As soon as the post about the "[ Chocolate Ice Cream Scoop ]" was published, players quickly showcased their talents in the comments section.
Player [ Little Policeman First in the Line of Fire ] left their first comment in the comments section, which is also currently the most liked comment -- "Rehabilitation Center".
However, not everyone clearly got the joke, which is somewhat similar to " High-Quality Charcoal Processing Plant," and soon players asked questions in the comments:
"Hey buddy, why is it called a rehabilitation center?"
Helpful netizens quickly provided an answer:
"Because we are all in a vegetative state."
[ Lion Hidden in the Eyes ] quickly expressed his opinion:
"What if I'm a half-dragon?"
[ The Little Policeman First in the Line of Fire ] personally responded to this nitpicking player who was finding fault even in the smallest details:
Does partial deafness mean we should give up on treatment?
After some debate, while many players thought the name "Rehabilitation Center" was quite good, others genuinely felt there were still some issues.
Player [ Question First, Then Question Again ] then pointed out their own viewpoint incisively:
"This name is great in every way, except it doesn't fit the world view. As the map expands further, there will inevitably be situations where we need to introduce our hometowns to NPCs."
"Then the people of the Graycast Corridor can proudly say they come from the intricate Great Labyrinth City, and the people of the Eternal Domain can say they come from the magnificent City of Dusk. What will we say? Are we supposed to say we come from a 'rehabilitation center' where over 90% of the population are in a vegetative state, partially deaf, or mentally ill?"
"Please, everyone, please be mindful of your manners when you're out and about..."
His sharp comment was quickly followed by new replies, but the focus seemed to be different from what he had expected:
" The City of Dusk? Is this the capital of the Eternal Domain? When did it appear?"
Faced with an unexpected question, [ Question First, Then Question Again ] quickly forwarded a link:
"Here's a post from those big shots who went to the Graycast Corridor. They met a craftsman who used to be an adventurer. He had been to City of Dusk, the capital of the Eternal Domain, when he was young."
"Thanks for the directions. I wish it were called Twilight; maybe there would be some really handsome vampires in it."
"If you don't understand, just ask. Leaving aside whether they're handsome or beautiful, do vampires really have normal looks? Ordinary ones are a given, but Bennett and Oliver are even more outlandish."
"Stop making fun of him, buddy. We're partly responsible for Oliver's awful appearance. I remember his dad restored him when he died, and he's not bad-looking now."
"I see. Does that mean a vampire's appearance improves as their rank increases?"
"..."
After browsing through them, [ Lion Hidden in the Eyes ] felt that both sides of the players, whether supporting or opposing, made valid points.
However, upon closer reflection, the name of this area near the castle, being the players' actual "main city," shouldn't be used too much as a joke.
If you were an NPC in another world, and someone came to you and told you they came from a place called a rehabilitation center, your first thought would be that the other person must have some kind of illness, and your hidden stats like trust level would naturally drop a few points.
However, when he exited this comment, he found that there were many equally reasonable names, many of which even came from his game friends, and the players who came with fun naturally did not hesitate to complain:
"The Fourth Calamity Incubation Base" -- sounds like an MCN agency that breeds internet celebrities.
"The Garden of Nurgle "—loud but not elegant.
" Slaanesh's Palace" -- elegant, but not catchy enough.
" Holy Terra "—don't come any closer!
"Super Holy City " -- This Holy City is so superb, I'm ashamed to even mention it.
" Hallownest " -- This is none of your business. Go back to playing with your chainsaw.
"Mororida" -- it doesn't sound like a name from this world.
The comment section of the post was filled with names that Shadow or were derived from various game worlds.
[ Lion Hidden in the Eyes ] It's obvious that these names would be rejected to avoid suspicion, but that doesn't stop these players from racking their brains to come up with something that makes him happy.
He spent a long time browsing the forum and finally liked all the comments he found interesting.
[ With Lion Hidden in the Eyes ] he then realized that this voting method actually made some sense.
Voting is done by liking, and there's no limit to the number of votes each person can cast; you can vote for all the names you think are good.
In this way, when the final votes are counted, the name with the most votes may not be the name that many people like the most, but it will definitely be the name that most people like and can accept.
After considering the logic, [ Lion Hidden in the Eyes ] was about to forward the post link to his small group of players in the World of Disorder when he discovered that the players in the group had already started debating it.
He sighed silently, then left the group chat that was turning into a battleground, intending to unblock it on the day the tickets went on sale.
Just as [ Lion Hidden in the Eyes ] guessed, Ed was also paying attention to the naming post for [ Chocolate Ice Cream Scoop ].
He had originally planned to include this naming contest in a previous update, but adhering to the principle that a gradual approach would demonstrate his sincerity, he ultimately postponed it.
Before I could even update the new long-running quest announcement, a player discovered and pointed out this problem.
However, on the other hand, with tens of thousands of players already, the fact that this problem was only discovered now makes Ed realize that everyone's attention is indeed focused on the game content, and they don't really care that much about these trivial matters.
Browsing through the names that players had painstakingly come up with, Ed also automatically filtered out those place names from other worlds.
Soon, a new comment caught Ed's eye, and under his watchful eye, the number of likes on this comment was rapidly increasing, and its popularity was rising every second.
