Nifty!

[MrSinistar]

I'm for Vice Squad, Programs, Users, Kraz-Bots or Recognizers.

Here's an accurate model I did of the Recognizer. I gave it Flynn's colors, so it's a "friendly" one as apposed to the regular Space Paranoids variant.

Hey, it has always been a dream of mine to be a saturday morning cartoon or a fraggle. Lets make this happen people!

[Ping Cruft]

....and this is a bad thing? Seriously it's a franchise that centers on a guy that gets zapped into a computer and interacts with 'people' that are somehow relevant to how the thing functions. Not high brow entertainment. Have some fun with it!

Would a Survey be apropos?

I do believe a survey is in order. We will need a way to be able to track and show the results as they come in. Also we must be logged in to vote to avoid cheating. I am not calling anyone a cheat. I just want us to avoid any accusations. We have seen the top names suggested in this thread So I suggest we place those in a multiple choice along with having a write in (Other) section for those who want an individual say that might have been over looked.
Of course there will always be someone not happy with what ever get chosen. That is just part of life and we all need to accept that rather than complain. It will be up to you as an individual to embrace what ever may win or to just simply ignore it. No complaining allowed in the end because we are all here to have fun.

You don't need a bath.
The name is just Gridy like us.

I've never been much of a joiner, but the "Cloudmakers" thing is something I'd have been proud to be a part of, had I been around for it.

That said, somehow Gridbugs/Grid Bugs feels a bit like I need a bath.

Users is a nice homage, but a bit plain (especially for people like me who work in IT and deal with them a lot). I do prefer it to the former, though.

Flynn's ARG-Aids was one that seemed to fit us better, but has 4th wall problems.

Would a Survey be apropos?

[GeorgeOcean]

Just throwing in my 2¢; personally, I prefer the terms "User" or "Operative." Call me old-fasioned, but I like the homage to the original movie in the name "Users" and on the other hand, we've already be labeled "Operatives."
Don't much care for "Gridbug," but again, that's just me.

Can't wait for this ARG to start back up again. Super8 just isn't as interesting

[ShadowDragon1]

No offense... I'll stick with the term "Operative"... not fond of the "Gridbug" name...

I'm diggin' Grid Bugs as well! Is it Grid Bugs or just Gridbugs (one word)?

According to the wiki stuff I've been seeing (and script references) it's "gridbugs", one word.

And I hope to have some picks to kickstart some DIY fun this week.
