I always liked the NSPower name, I vote to continue using that name.

You really must be on the autistic spectrum to have the balls to post in this thread and suggest a name.

GTFO.

Man, this scene...

Who cares if DZ gets renamed to Tinfoil? XorTroll wasn't doing anything with it and will likely abandon it before making it great just like he always has done (spoilers: these are links) with his switch projects. This is not a dig at Xor - He makes great stuff. He just never polishes or works on it enough to iron out the bugs/make it perfect before hopping onto the next project.

The main reason for being upset about this is (I assume) wanting attention, which would also be the main big reason for having an issue with someone renaming their program to match yours. "Hi I'm XorTroll, I'm in charge of tinfoil development!" means a lot less when there's multiple tinfoil projects. There's nothing wrong with wanting to be recognized for something you put hard work into - However, XorTroll has put no changes in Tinfoil and the original author of Tinfoil, Adubzz, doesn't even care that DZ was renamed. So you gotta ask - Who are you guys all getting offended for?

On the other hand, renaming a well-named project like DZ to tinfoil, knowing that (one? two?) project(s) already exist using this name is just causing drama for the sake of drama. It's not something I would do or suggest because I think it's better for people to work together than fight over something dumb like this. I'll continue to use Xor and blawar's projects because they're both great, but christ you guys like fighting in this scene.

Also, I suggest XorFoil. Or NSPower. Or name it another another metal, like Aluminum.

Luna Shop, Turkey Baster, Chimerical, but in all honesty given what you've done you should seriously name it Coalesce.
