Naming Team Challenges

I did an oops in choosing the name of an upcoming challenge between Christians and Dutch Power Cows.

I think I could have avoided hurting many feelings if I only had opened the door to discussing a name beforehand with DPC.

I did ask my team for suggestions and only one came, and I just went with it. In my mind I pictured 'mowing grass' hence the name "Mow Down".

This name also implies a 'mowing' down by the legs which is not a very nice image (I do pray that you forgive me as it was unintentional) I have sent in a request to Support to change the name to "Moh Down".

So please think seriously as to what you name your challenge and try to come to an agreement between each other before the Challenge is issued.


Thank you blushing

Re: Naming Team Challenges

An edit feature to a Challenge Title would be nice so it can be a working title and when confirmed, adapted to fit the accepting party, which in open challenges could be anyone.

Possibly an objective field where combattants could stipulate heats like number of daily wins over a given period.... would stretch the parties to not accumulate completed tasks before sending.

We have changed the name of the challenge per your request.

We will take a look at granting the ability to change the name.

thanks for the good suggestion.
