Just my opinion. Surf and Turf sounds silly. You are trying to change Oceania's image and stop all the bashing and dissing. Surf and turf would be counter productive. I'm sure if you really took a minute to think of what the tools who make fun of Oceania would think of surf and turf, you might understand what i mean. I'm thinking respectable names. What's more respectable than 2 GODS.

I don't think whatever we end up naming the conference is going to have any impact on how good or bad outsiders think the competition level is here. Only our performance against teams from other leagues can do that, everything else is just meaningless talk.

Neptune/Poseidon and Volcano/Tsunami(Typhoon) are solid combos, but we don't have to choose something intimidating to "improve our image." Surf and Turf is a catchy combo and has character, which is just as good for differentiating ourselves from the pack.

We should narrow it down to the top 3 or 4 options and figure out how we're going to hold the vote. Presumably each team in oceania should get 1 vote? Or each agent with at least one player in the region? The latter could get pretty rough to tally.

You can't take this game too seriously. Sometimes you can look like a tool simply for trying TOO hard!

Here are examples of two WPL Stadiums to prove my point:

Just have fun with it, the world is going to make fun of us anyway!

You have got some skills! That said, it's a little too Hawaiian imo.

The best way to win an argument is to disarm the opponent. Fully embrace our alleged ineptitude, and we take the sting out of their barbs.

And in time, as OPRO returns to glory, the taunts will turn to irony, and irony is the best form of rhetoric.

In that case: Alpha = Hopeless, Zeta = Overconfident.
