What about a ship wheel?

It's simplistic, with a circular shape that resembles the letter O.

It's just my opinion, but:

Periscope = ocean = Oceania. This is an easy association for people to make. That's a hallmark of successful branding.

Gnome = WTF?


I don't care, we just need to make a final decision so I can fix my avatar

I'll personally defer to the majority -- if you want to start officially voting now, 1 vote per team, I'll keep a tally on the front page -- or are we putting the cart ahead of the horse since we haven't gauged the interest of all the teams yet?

Wow, I'm late to the party ... step out of the forums for a few days and miss the branding of an entire region.

I like the wheel.

I'd add this to a panel in my animated GIF. I'd also recommend something along that line rather than a tiny thing on the avatar. Like 4sec of your normal avatar, then 1sec of the league logo

Don't you mean aren't we putting the gnome before the wheel ?

Also like the idea of a regional animal as a possibility ... perhaps the koala.

Not a rep of greater Oceania, but definitely recognizable and easily linked to the hub of the region in Australia.

And, easy to work into many avatars as a mask or looking over the shoulder, or as part of a region-wide logo, etc.

Nothing says "Oceania" like a good old fashioned palm tree, see what I mean:

That's just an example, you don't need the whole beach and background. A little picture of a palm tree could be easily worked into pretty much any avatar.

That's the POINT!

Nothing says Oceania like "WTF?"

Great job SCACE to start with this idea.

I had been checking the Wiki, and noticed our page is lacking. It would be great to have a great Wiki page.

Also the idea about getting on GLB Radio, another great idea.

I think the respect, and stuff, has been around since day 1 in Oceania. A big reason I think have become so great. Also, when they had the one time relocation, I remember no one wanted to leave Oceania for USA. It was great!

Don't know if am a feeling the gnomes. But did think of an idea to add it to our teams logo, if it is going to stick. Could get a gnome skull, and cross bones, and have it change to it fast in a gif, to switch back and forth to our logo. Just an idea.

Wheel is boring. Periscope is intriguing, as is the Koala idea. Those are good and random.

Random is the key. Random intrigues.

Boat wheel = yawn.

JMO.
