    Name My Server

    I just got a new home server (I'll post specs if you guys really want them), and it needs a name. My usual scheme is "uncommon, relatively modern (18th to mid-19th-century) male names". My old server ("Gretel") is a slight break from that, being named after the fairy tale of Hansel and Gretel (it's one of two identical boxes; Mum has Hansel). Given that, I'm thinking of changing the scheme slightly so that servers get female names. Anyone got any ideas?

    In return... I dunno. 100 credits to whoever comes up with the name I like most? lol

    I've written a couple articles on automatic application of AlphaImageLoader in IE6 using nothing but IE6-specific CSS rules.

    Re: Name My Server

    Alma or Shodan are my choices; Alma from FEAR (pc game), Shodan from System Shock's 1 and 2

    Although I would use those more on systems that are a bit unruly. Alma tends to set things on fire and rend flesh from bone, Shodan's a power hungry AI that has the habit of complimenting you while insulting you, such as "You are a remarkable example of an inferior race."

    Oh, and if you want one that's prone to Viral infection, name it Kerrigan (as in Sarah Kerrigan, Queen of Blades from Starcraft)


    TOS breakers will be suspended regardless of race, creed, national origin, hair color, or favorite food. Thanks for your understanding!

    Maybe decide what purpose the server will serve, or what "personality" it has, and name it accordingly?
    Taking a break from studying just to post this useless piece of drivel.
