Naming the new place round 2

one reason i like keyosc is because its easy to say. you can also pronounce WATMM as "wat-em". but how would you say WCBYD? "wick-bide" ?? too awkward.

I like to pronounce WATMM... watamama

I get the reference guys! And if that is what the WATMM massive want then I'll concede. I do think it might hinder potential newcomers a bit because how would they find out about this being an electronic music subforum.

By googling “idm kiosk bullwallet seanpls lol kek wcbyd watmm second bad forum jazzband readtherules”

  WCBYD

  KEYOSC

I didn’t really get the whole ‘keyosc’ thing, but the more I see you all yapping on about it the more it chimes, so it gets my vote because I care because you does.

down with either keyosc or secondbadforum, but either way feel trashbear should definitely be incorporated into the logo or site design somehow.

something like this?

Beep Street is even easier to pronounce as "BS"...

watmm when spoken always reminded me of words like twat or swot, which makes me think of a music snob, and the way it ends on the tmm feels indecisive, like "wat hmmm actually I dunno"

keyosc sounds like kiosk, which is equally stupid to anyone who doesn't know the dumb in-joke lore, but who needs outsiders anyway right, but it also sounds like a function on a synth or something, which is kinda appropriate

Professor James was roundly ridiculed for his “KEYOSC conspiracy theory”, for which he bet he would cut off his ponytail if disproven. He was laughed out of academia, and last seen working as a wedding DJ.

For the record, even as a staunch aenthusiast, wcbyd wins my #1 vote, with keyosc second. I guess when we get to round 12 of voting and it's limited to one choice that's where we might see an overall shift.

yeah i've been chuckling in my head that the Aphex fans splitting their votes between WCBYD & WATDOTD probably aren't smart enough to understand they can just vote for both.

only 2 rounds left. for the preliminary choice that is

I always thought it was "we are the dreamers of dreams" (no second "the").
