Petition to rename My | Mindark (possibly against her will)

[Angel O2 Mercer]

Ok, allow me to start by saying that I think @My|MindArk is doing a good job so far.

The problem is most conversations go like this:

O2: ... yeah My said so and so...
player1: your what?
player2: ur what?
player3: o2 are you drunk again?

Or:

O2: that's a good question, we could ask my on discord...
player1: your?
player2: finish your sentences bro

I can't waste 20 seconds typing out "mindark" every time I wanna mention her, who has time for that? nobody, then english breaks and we are all scared and confused. Plus if you type My Mindark you sound like gollum, not cool. So my proposal is to rename My | Mindark to Bob | Mindark. Bob, easy to remember, beautiful lovely name, works in every language !!

Notice how in this thread I've written multiple times "my mindark" but I'll have you know that I'm not actually the owner of Mindark !! Omg see? everyone is confused again, I can't be the only one :/

PS: And I'm not drunk, the bottle was half empty already.

It's just a xmas joke, dont ban me pls <3




EDIT Dec 23, 2020 :
This thread was just a joke people! My's response leads me to believe she got the joke (and she's a good sport, I must say):

Oh no... It begins

Hehe

Type MyMA.

 

[GeorgeSkywalker]

Renaming her is a good idea. However you can't just pick a random name like Bob. How about her surname or middle name? Anyone know what those are?

 

[Svarog]

Capital letters were invented precisely for that case.

 

[Angel O2 Mercer]

Type MyMA.

My mom?

 

[Alainax]

Its funny on twitch too when you say it out loud. Pronounced "Me/Mii"

"me was saying the other day" "Me is cool" Sounds like you are talking about yourself XD

 

[Joat]

My mom?

Yep because if you say "my ma said this" then everyone else should listen.

It is not "Me/Mii" either. The problem is that English speaking people don't know how to pronounce the Swedish vowel "y" (same as "ü" in German; it also exists in all other Scandinavian languages incl. the otherwise alien Finnish, in Chinese, Turkish and many others). It is really clearly distinguished. This is not My's fault and therefore the onus should not be on her to get her name changed. Y'all are dealing with a foreign company. Make that little effort, will ya? (esp. if you're so lucky to have a husband who can help )

If I use ü It sounds like im calling her moo! I cant say that!!! I am sure she told us it was pronounced Mii, which I read as me like Wii/we.

The bedroom is an excellent place for intensive pronounciation lessons... :devil:

 

[My|MindArk]

My middle name is "Annefrid" so you could use that one, or maybe "MindArks little sister" perhaps. Bob is also nice, I like Bob.

Cool i will go with 'My Bob' then

 

[San]

I'm getting sudden flashbacks. Like, this is how the conversation ends every day: "Good night, My Bob." - "Good night, John Boy."

 

[atomicstorm]

Given her personality and some chats in discord.. I will go with PyroEmo.

That's a beautiful middle name! You could be Annie.

Annie are you ok?
Are you ok Annie?

Hmm sounds nice, someone should write a song about it.

Or perhaps a complete musical.

I think Cartoon Spoon nailed it though. GJ!

I think MyAnt would be fine and should cause no confusion

First my mom and now my aunt, what the hell man?

 

[My|MindArk]

A user did call me "MyAnt" under a stream and people thought they said "my aunt"..

Confusion levels increasing

 

[My|MindArk]

How about spelling it as " μυ " (Greek) ?

 

[Angel O2 Mercer]

Can I pronounce that without conjuring an evil spell?

No, she already unleashed the demon by putting it on PCF. (Also, #cyrenegate)

 

[John B Knight]

or we call you just 'M'

 

[jetsina]

It's good to see MyBob able to be here in a light-hearted way. There are so many things we create abbreviations for in this crazy world that we will quickly get used to whatever My chooses if we should indeed go with something from now on . Obviously another one we can't have is us all wanting MaMy
