The voting process for <Aftermath> was pretty gay and most of the poll names were terrible. Aftermath was actually one of the better options somehow. When you are looking over 75 names they all start to look corny TBH

WTB said cringe list

You mean like <Triton> of Povar or <Conquest> of Lanys? What a bunch of millennials.

Man.. I cant believe I just saw someone mention triton.. what was the guild leaders name again? Zaar? Zoor? Something like that. It blows my mind someone else played on my server at the same time I did and now years later I'm talking to them.

Did you play on povar? What was your name

zaar, dark elf necro. ended up IRL marrying our (RA's) GM's twin sister, shiba, during WoW beta or around that time. idk it's fuzzy i'd quit by then

ps <Rising Ascension> was way worse of a guild name cos it just meant uh... a rising rise... an upping up? wewlad

No, I played on Lanys. Those were just the first two big one-word guild names that came to mind.

Exponential growth imo. Climbing up. A net shift in power towards the direction of Mine!

If you wanted to be real poetic you could name it Falling Ascension. The human brain eats contrasts up and automatically appraises the juxtaposition of opposite ideas as good or leaning towards good. This is because people are idiots.

Hey Conquest was better than their old name on Lanys: Soul Assassins.

Interesting that you forgot <Afterlife>.

That said, I think 3 word names take it with <Fires of Heaven>, <Heaven and Earth>, and the best name for any top guild ever <Cats in Hats>

Also, yes Riot is a dumb name. Even as a member, I can admit that, but when your only other option is Aftermath, you take what you are given.

Did you know that After M*A*S*H was a very short-lived spin off of M*A*S*H? Colonel Potter, Klinger, and Father Mulcahy all worked together at a stateside VA hospital.

Eh, I've seen worse. The first iteration of the uber guild I was in back in the day was something stupid like eternal dragons of norrath or some other abominable D&D nerd word salad. I refused to ever say the whole name and only use the acronym.

Aftermath isn't that bad, especially if the guild was formed out of the carcass(es) another guild(s) following some drama. It's nice to have a name with some actual guild exposition to it. just like we merged with the other bigger guild on our server to become the eventual uber guild and we cut our guild names in half and joined them together. it still wasn't a good name, but at least it meant something.
