Okay, the listowners/gamemasters of the Phoenyx have had two
months to work at this (see the forwarded message, below) and,
well, the best we've come up with is "The Phoenyx: We Suck at
Taglines."
There's a Phoenyx T-shirt in it for whoever comes up with a good
tagline ("good" being defined by "we decide to use it," of course).
Needs to be short, sum up what the Phoenyx does (online
roleplaying) without using gamer-exclusive jargon, without sounding
like an adult site, without sounding like an Everquest/Quake site,
and without sucking.
(The non-tagline-containing side of the shirt, probably (as you might
guess by the filename) the front, is

To: listowners@phoenyx.net
Among other things, the Phoenyx needs a tag line.
Slashdot is "News For Nerds: Stuff That Matters," Heat.Net is
"Fast, free online gaming," Mplayer.net is "Come for the games,
stay for the party," Amazon is "Earth's biggest selection,"
Microsoft is "All your base are belong to us." (Well, okay, I made
the last one up.)
It's not *exactly* a slogan, more of a subtitle. We've sort of had
"internet roleplaying," but that's not really very catchy, and it's not
very consistent (sometimes it's been "online roleplaying"). I
suggested stealing SouthWind's unofficial "We suck less," but Carl
doesn't agree.
Suggestions?
