Title: The name
Post by: lynx_lupo on November 08, 2003, 10:54:28 pm
I\'ve heard there will be at least 2 more beta stages after CB. So I wonder how will they be called?

AtomicB
   |
  ?
MulecularB
   |
  ?
CrystalB
   |
  ?
??
   |
  ?
????

How more complex can it get?

edit?^?? ?hm

I asked this myself a couple of months ago, there was quite a discussion about it, but I don\'t think we got anywhere with an answer.

Hmm, you find atoms in a moleculd, and crystals in a cave...

What do you find crystals in?

WatchBlue
WineGlassBlue
ChandelierBlue
SaltShakerBlue

Hmm, and following that logic, the next:

JewelryStoreBlue
KitchenCabinetBlue
MansionBlue
TableSettingBlue

Anybody else? ^^

Diamond Blue?

Post by: Axsyrus on November 08, 2003, 11:23:11 pm
hmmm.. maybe Ionic Blue?

tetra-things-ending-in-yle-1,2,8,450,3-dimetrybut-3-?ne-BLUE ?

Post by: Kiva on November 08, 2003, 11:36:50 pm
It\'d have to be something starting with D and E... unless they have some weird idea of finishing it all off with Xywyxikyng Yellow or something. However, Diamond and Emerald Blue would certainly be good guesses. :P Or maybe Eternally Blue, as in they never move to any further stage. That could be a final version? :D

Atomic Blue
Molecular Blue

why should it be D or E?

Ionic Blue, as the structure gets more and more complicated ^^

Post by: Yarulion on November 08, 2003, 11:50:40 pm
Well if CrystalBlue is the payoff for hunting crystals, maybe the one after that is the payoff for whatever a lot of people will be hunting in the next version.

CabalBlue? ^^

Then the next could be YarulionBlue because of how many people are going to shoot me if I don\'t quit making bad jokes? ^^

Hmm... I think I missed that one :D

I just got an idea! What about a name contest, to find a name for the version after CB! Could be fun, and I\'m sure it would bring up a lot of strange names as well :P
Title:
Post by: Davis on November 09, 2003, 01:26:49 am
I like Organic Blue, though maybe something should come between Crystal and Organic...
Like...
umm...
I don\'t know.
But ions are below crystals...
Title:
Post by: Axsyrus on November 09, 2003, 01:29:36 am
hmm yeah, then it should be:
atomic blue
molecular blue
ionic blue
crystal blue
organic blue

hmm.. organic blue is good
Title:
Post by: Kiern on November 09, 2003, 01:39:08 am
Organic sounds...not good

Post by: Xandria on November 09, 2003, 09:37:45 am
I vote for \"Ionic Blue,\" it just sounds cool, and it kinda fits in with the rest of the names.  :))
Title:
Post by: Wedge on November 09, 2003, 09:39:25 am
Ninja Blue

<_<

>_>

....

No seriously it pry will be called Ionic Blue... I\'d think anyway.
Title:
Post by: lynx_lupo on November 09, 2003, 10:02:47 am
organic would fit on the last spot, i think the gap is too big for the first.
ionic would be before molecular.
Title:
Post by: Zephyrus on November 09, 2003, 10:33:42 am
maybe you could have chromosome blue, like organic blue, only cooler

Granite Blue? perhaps
Title:
Post by: Kiva on November 09, 2003, 11:20:00 pm
lol does granite come in blue? I didn\'t know that... Oh well. Maybe Water-Blue or Lollypop-Blue... Or maybe even Smilie-Blue! :D <-- See! Blue!

ohh ohh
Sky blue
windex blue
QAS blue
blue jean

now seriouly
cosmic blue
celesetial blue
Quatrz blue- fits the rock thing
Shining blue-only for full relese

cellulare blue wont work b/c stone and crystals are inorganic and to be cellular you must be organic, same with organic blue, it really just doesn\'t work if they are trying to clip the names together

well, those up are good, but isn\'t it a too big gap(from tiny crystal to cosmos!)!?

And maybe going organic is the way, as celular and organic are good size increases.

Actually, they did the names wrong... It should\'ve been Coal and Mountain blue, then Crystal Blue :P You know.

1) atomic (very small)
2) molecular (still small but bigger than the 1st one)
3) coal (big)
4) mountain (mountain + coal =)
5) crystal/diamond (final version)

But of course, that\'s just my strange logic... :D

What\'s an atom found inside of? MolecularBlue
What\'s a molecule found inside of? CrystalBlue
What\'s a crystal found inside of? CaveBlue
What\'s a cave found inside of? Um.....

\"crystals are inorganic\"
Ummm no that\'s not true.

example.
Table sugar
Title:
Post by: Ranegyn on November 10, 2003, 06:14:58 pm
It doesn\'t really go in order anyways, since many molecules are bigger then many crystals.  Think of proteins or even better DNA.   But then crystals can get even way bigger then that.

Hmmm maybe Macro-molecular Blue?
Title:
Post by: Jedi on November 10, 2003, 06:16:56 pm
Hey...what if they changed the colour? *woman in the crowd screams and faints...cries of blasphemy roar from all directions* WHat if Blue is just the code for Alpha? ...eh? WHat if it goes to Red? BETA version 0.7 AtomicRED.

Alpha:

AtomicBLUE
MolecularBLUE
CrystalBLUE

Beta:

AtomicRED
MolecularRED
CrystalRED

Final:

AtomicSHIFT
MolecularSHIFT
CrystalSHIFT

...wow...duuuuuuuuuuuuude. 0.0 ... U.U ... 0.0
Title:
Post by: Windra on November 10, 2003, 06:18:55 pm
im either asleep or very very very confused!
this is gonna sound like im a real n00b(which i am) if ive got the wrong idear...but y is it called atomicblue...then molecular blue and not planeshift 1.0...1.1.or 2.0...

I think ionic sounz good and fits...but its not quite right...
Title:
Post by: elscouta on November 10, 2003, 06:23:58 pm
because Crytal Blue sounds better than PlaneShift 0.2 :P

For the name, i agree, Ionic Blue was great and still in the \'molecular scope\'
Title:
Post by: Princess Aelya on November 10, 2003, 06:52:06 pm
how about photonic blue?
Title:
Post by: Moogie on November 10, 2003, 07:04:08 pm

yes granite does come in blue and red and grey and even shades of green. granite is a very versatile rock

or maybe marble blue? or quartz blue? rock is the natural progression of crystal since various crystalline structures make up rock.
Title:
Post by: lynx_lupo on November 10, 2003, 07:44:07 pm
Yeah, it could really be Rock blue and then maybe Stalagmite(stalactite?) Blue.
Title:
Post by: Axsyrus on November 10, 2003, 07:54:41 pm
why not call the next release Ionic Blue instead of Crystal Blue, and then call the release after that Crystal Blue

/me loves the name Ionic Blue ^^
Title:
Post by: elscouta on November 10, 2003, 08:36:14 pm
It\'s probably too late to change the name of the release... a lot of websites have already deals with CB.

And Ionic can be the step after CB since there will be more movement in Ionic Blue than in Crystal Blue
Title:
Post by: lynx_lupo on November 10, 2003, 08:45:47 pm
oh yes and crystals can be ionized too. = there are crystal shaped ions...
Title:
Post by: Jessyn on November 10, 2003, 09:06:40 pm
andthe winning idea is:

Quantum Blue

I just thinkit sounds cool, don\'t bother trying to tell me that the quantum level is subatomic, i know.  It still sounds nifty.

Jessyn
Title:
Post by: elscouta on November 10, 2003, 09:07:41 pm
lol, Quantum should have been the step before Atomic Blue :D
Title:
Post by: Xandria on November 10, 2003, 09:12:55 pm
Whoever said that it has to be a natural progression anyways?  Can\'t we just come up with a cool name and use it?  I\'m not gonna argue that it\'s out of order or not  :D
Title:
Post by: Davis on November 12, 2003, 01:47:46 am
Yeah, I was thinking about that... but if there is ever 4, then
CELLUAR BLUE OR HOWEVER YOU SPELL IT
I mean, isn\'t that cool?!!
Cellular... or celluar... or... ... ...
Title:
Post by: Xandria on November 12, 2003, 02:20:29 am
Except \"Cellular Blue\" would be abbreivated \"CB\" so that wouldn\'t work :P
Title:
Post by: Davis on November 12, 2003, 03:37:48 am
CELLULAR OR CELLUAR OR WHATEVER BLUE!
I don\'t care what its abbreviated to!
Title:
Post by: Kiern on November 12, 2003, 03:44:16 am
Stop ruining my day! ;(  ;(  ;(
Title:
Post by: Xandria on November 12, 2003, 05:38:22 am
Davis, the next release is \"Crystal Blue\" (aka \"CB\" ) so we can\'t have the release right after it also have the abbreviation \"CB.\"  Just think of the chaos that might ensue if we did!!

EDIT: stupid smiley wrecked my post :(

Post by: DevotedEternal on November 12, 2003, 03:00:35 pm
didnt read the whole thread, but i imagine that they arent going to have any names like that later.... im thinking after CB, it will just be Planeshift Alpha, or something along those lines
Title:
Post by: Davis on November 12, 2003, 05:40:36 pm
Selluar blue?
I don\'t think anybody knows how to spell it anyway, at least I don\'t...
Anyway, I like the changing colors thing.
Title:
Post by: Axsyrus on November 12, 2003, 07:00:41 pm
It\'s Cellular...

why would they stop using the system they are using now.. CB will be alpha, but they won\'t just call it alpha..
I like the codenames, at least there\'s some originality in them.
Title:
Post by: Drachion on November 12, 2003, 08:00:57 pm
how bout oil blue or missile blue or satanic blue or fart blue or ill blue or missing nin blue or mystic blue or iron blue or ..... blue or ........ blue or chakra blue or something blue ok that where my 2 buks take or leave it
Title:
Post by: Axsyrus on November 12, 2003, 08:55:35 pm
hmm.. mystic blue sounds good :))
Title:
Post by: Grakrim on November 12, 2003, 09:24:41 pm
How about, \"No, you can\'t open that door Blue\"? Or \"RTFM Blue\"?

Seriously though, I rather fancy the color-changing idea.  Or maybe Yliakum Blue...?

I\'m curious though, where did this whole \"blue\" thing come from?  Or is it a inside joke/secret?
Title:
Post by: elscouta on November 12, 2003, 09:26:14 pm
jeh but not after crystal. It will break the line

No, ionic or photonic sounds good
Title:
Post by: DevotedEternal on November 13, 2003, 12:46:38 am
wait a second, CB is not alpha... CB is the final Pre-Alpha stage..... then we move into alpha, which is when i believe they are dropping the code names
Title:
Post by: Kiern on November 13, 2003, 12:49:30 am
Hopefully, that will stop these bad ideas :P
Title:
Post by: Yarulion on November 13, 2003, 12:52:01 am
Yes I think this thread has now become similar to Alucard\'s guild of no guildiness in that any name posted here is immediately removed from the list of potential names for future versions  :D
Title:
Post by: derwoodly on November 14, 2003, 03:10:49 am
Blah, your all wrong...

After the CB release in January of 2004, Buckball Blue will be release in April 2005

BC will be the final release of the \"free\" version of PS.  After that it will be sold to Microsoft and be incorperated into the AC series as AC3.
Title:
Post by: Kiva on November 14, 2003, 07:07:10 pm
Actually, woodly, I\'m quite sure AD comes after BC, not AC. But then again, I might just be wrong. :D
