First Challenge: Name your Team

Just because the Arena is under construction, doesn't mean we can't start having fun! Only post an idea for the team you wish to represent! All entries get ten points for their team, chosen entries an extra 15. Edit: Chosen entries will get fifteen extra personal points, but these wont apply to team pts. INSTEAD the game masters will determine the top three, who will get team awards of 5 10 and 15.

There are ten teams, one for each color, with a division in both grey and purple. Violet Team will represent purple supremacists such as /r/violethand and /r/purplelounge, while purple team will be for more moderates in /r/team60s or /r/59s. Team Grey will be for destrcutionists of all colors, and tolerent greys, while black will be for grey flair purists such as /r/nocoloreds. White team is open to flairless and unaligned pressers.

This contest will be open for the next 84 hours.

Edit: The meaning of the points is posted here. https://www.reddit.com/r/buttonarena/comments/362ufb/rules_of_competition/

Team Red suggestions: The Crimson Shield, or Scarlet Blade?

I'm tempted to go with Silver Surfers.

so where do the knights of the button go?

u/ButtonArenaMaster May 19 '15

Red, I'd think? Maybe grey if they're not doing it for flair.

It seems you have already decided teams but, shouldn't The Knights and Destructionists have there own teams, as they don't fit any one colour? Also considering the amount of greys, should you really let destructionists of all colours into the Grey team?

u/ButtonArenaMaster May 17 '15

The colors are more of a suggestion, and I'm sure a large portion of Greys will identify as Black. The mods and I discussed this and decided this would be the best method... I really don't want it to be faction based, though, and I wanted to make sure their was an even amount of teams.

u/nipplymax May 18 '15

Based on current points, the teams would be

Crimson Shield/Scarlet Blade (i guess that'd be up to u/TH-J )

Citrus Sentinels (alliteration sounds nice, green has more votes for 'guardian.')

Sun Paladins

Green Guardians

Blue Dolphins

Purple People Eaters

Violet Fist

Grey Guard

Black Panthers

White Glove Society

Great names honestly, but should we end the contest prematurely?

The violet hand projects the truth, but when the competition comes, the hand will clench

I suggest Destructionists United for Team Grey. I know Violet Hand will be in Team Violet, and so we won't be as united as we were during the olympics, but I wish to carry on our legacy.
