I propose we dub this the International Roguelike Development Conference 2008, or IRDC 2008 for short.  No doubt conflicts with a half-dozen other industry groups, but you have to start somewhere...  --[[User:JeffLait|JeffLait]] 05:24, 29 July 2008 (CEST)
Maybe some more interesting name, like Tailoring Roguelikes: International Conference on Roguelike Development (TRICoRD). (Although I think a better acronym could be found.) --[[User:R2|R2]] 16:05, 29 July 2008 (CEST)
Society for the Advancement of Roguelike Games and Endeavors (SARGE)

The following names were considered, with IRDC 2008 being selected as a winner:


I vote either for IRDC 2008 (simple and would fit well into any CV) or for TRICoRD (sounds nice) --[[User:Mario Donick|Mario Donick]] 13:19, 10 August 2008 (CEST)

My vote is with the simplistic IRDC 2008.  --[[User:JeffLait|JeffLait]] 14:44, 10 August 2008 (CEST)
