Congratulations to the winners
( * Antonia Marius - Jul 11, 2007 - 17:33 )
I think the judges did a grand job with their selections. Mighty AWAS (pronounced WOZ) is soooo perfect for this event. And I'm pleased to death that Marcus Antonius Caesar *swoon* won second with MOJAX. Vort's Iulius Cheezer is funny as hell too.

Juno's Cap! It must have been hard to decide on a winner. We have some very witty people here at AW.
Winners of the NAME THE MASCOT MOUSE contest!

LOL - I loved the suggestions for this contest. While we're whipping up some nifty-looking prizes, I'm glad to announce the winners, with kudoes to all for creativity!

FIRST PLACE - Jacques Elliott Cruithni came up with MIGHTY AWAS ("Mighty Mouse"?), a mixture of AW and AS, with "WOZ" for short. This was irresistable. Good work!

SECOND PLACE - Marcus Antonius Caesar came up with MOJAX, a mixture of the hero, Ajax, and MO for MOUSE. Well done!

THIRD PLACE - Who can resist Vortigern Aedui's Julius Cheezer? The Mouse that roared indeed.

Prizes will be handed out shortly, but thanks for helping name our mascot - AWAS for formal, Mighty WOZ for drinking parties!
Did anybody Win This

Just curious. I didn't even know there was a chat that day.
HAIL MASCOTEERING MOUSCOTEERS!
( * Megalith Mau Maximus - Jul 5, 2007 - 20:01 )


The bigger they are, the better they taste. I hungrily endorse these two names:

peacelady Hector's - "Mouseules" and
Vortigern Aedui's - "Julius Cheezer"

VALE!

Good Luck

To us all- may the best man/woman win :)
Jacques that is very ingenious

I like it!
Awas (A' Woz)
( * Jacques Elliott Cruithni - Jul 4, 2007 - 14:40 )
Simply add AW to AS and you have it. I think you could pronounce the name as "A" "Woz". And if a strong antecedent sir name is desirable how about "Mighty" as in "Mighty Awas"? A direct referrence to Mighty Mouse. Much like how AS/AW started out small and grew to become mighty. Alternatively if a more diminutive name form is desired, how about "Little Awas", a simile to Stuart Little? This would suggest the "Can Do" attitude seen in the animated Stuart Little mouse character of the now well known family movie.
Mojax
( * Marcus Antonius Caesar - Jul 4, 2007 - 13:09 )
The name is a mixture of mouse and Ajax. In the picture our little mascot looks quite fierce. Certainly he is good enough to share a part of his name with Ajax. Plus people in the media today love smashing names together like Branjelina, JLO, and Bennifer. Drives me nuts, but if you can't beat 'em join 'em.

Cac! I just came across this contest reading the AW boards messages and here I am, stumbling in and trying to get something donated here.
Of course, I am loaded with funny names, but most of 'em are old, outdated, funny but goners...Like Siddeus Soddus or Biggus Dickus. You'll still laugh yer @ss off, but it's not original. Men Mice aren't either, like Erastes Fulmen or Lucius Vorenus...Naahh, that dog don't hunt.. ;)
But...WAIT a MINUTE?! How about this guy?? He's not exactly a mouse, yet, he's a rodent and a BITER, too! And no goner! Fresh like good, crisp bread, him! Gerry Butler as SPARTA300....Have a look at the world's hottest rodent so far! (Sorry, it's not exactly a mouse, folks. I can MAKE him into a mouse, though, if you like..)
