How did 'Nebula' come to be? by OPTOBAT November 29, 2014 at 2:11 AM UTC

Hey everyone, i don't mean the game itself, but how did the NAME for Nebula come to be?
does nebula mean anything, or did someone make it up?

I dunno, I've just never really thought about the game mode names before in depth :)

Thanks.

One thing im sure of is that ParaPenguin originally created the "Nebula" plugin and the IvyCode took over the development.

Im not sure if the name comes from ParaPenguin however...

Someone will have to either confirm or deny that

Name comes from ParaPenguin. Chosen because it sounded cool.

Don't think of it as "a cloud of gas", think of it as "an interstellar conglomeration comprising gaseous and plasmatic substances".

Blackhawk6alpha: How about Avicas?

They had to flip a coin between Avicus and Kiwicus. Stupid double-sided head coin. >:|

No idea how you got that, but afterwards there was a poll within the staff team between Avicas and Avicus.

Stole Avigill's shredded documents about McZone and Avicus and tried to paste them back together.

What about the names of maps? There are a bunch of names that I don't think are even words.

A lot of names are latin

Well, when you do a lot of writing, it's imperative that you have a wide vocabulary — to sound fancier, to be as descriptively accurate as possible, and so on. You can make lots of casual things sound formal if you choose the right wordings...

Ah, but I digress. Someone stop me before I stray off-topic.
