Do you want to participate in a large community game event and name SPOP spacebats/horde clones?!
Hello! I like dragging hundreds of people into silly ideas, so welcome!
This account is for a SPOP/Spacebat Tumblr-wide event starting Thursday, August 6th, and going until we can’t go anymore!!!
1.) We spend the next month and a half growing our army by following this page (we can extend timeline if not enough)
2.) One or two days a week, this account will post a picture of a random background Horde Clone or two.
3.) In the comments, anyone is free to suggest names! You can like other people’s comments or boost your own name idea on your page by reblogging the post and your name idea (but you must also comment or it will be disregarded). Campaign as much as you want!
4.) After one week, I will set up a poll with the top 10 liked comments/name suggestions for the spacebat. If we have less than 10 suggestions, we will vote anyway. If we do not have three or more, we will wait an additional week. At this point if we do move to voting, I will ensure the original post shows as closed.
5.) VOTE VOTE VOTE!!! SPACEBAT DEMOCRACY!!! PICK UR FAV, ONLY VOTE ONCE!!! CONTINUE TO CAMPAIGN IF SO YOU WISH!!!
6.) At the end of the week (seven days after it opens), I will close the poll and announce the winner! We then officially dub that spacebat whatever the most popular name chosen was.
7.) Continue until the sun implodes or we run out of background clones/spacebats (a while)
8.) Eventually get enough attention to get one of the show’s creators to say the names we’ve given are canon (I wrote this as a joke but genuinely that would be amazing)
1.) Be nice! Do not put others down or tell people not to vote for specific names. And don’t be down if a name you wanted didn’t win, it’ll be okay! And of course, no hate speech, anti-LGBTQ, racism, or any other kind of hate. Any hateful behavior will not be tolerated, and you will be blocked on the first offense.
2.) One name suggestion per person per clone. We don’t need five name ideas for one clone from one person. Don’t worry: there will be plenty more babies to name :)
3.) Nothing inappropriate or insensitive. I will delete any comments with inappropriate suggestions and write down your profile. Three strikes of intentionally doing this and you are blocked. We are respectful here. If I fail to delete one due to not seeing it or not understanding its meaning, please let me know. If it somehow makes it to the poll, it will be disregarded/deleted.
4.) No naming them after irl people please! No puns on celebrity names either. If you’re unsure if a name is ok, ask.
5.) “Name” is a strong word. Remember the spacebats are still learning naming concepts, so you can totally suggest object or place names (no real world places). Clones named ‘Coffee Cup’ or ‘Window’ would be funny and entirely acceptable!
6.) No OCs! We love spacebat/clone OCs here, and you’re free to name a clone after them, but do not say ‘that clone is now canonically my OC’ if your name wins. Additionally, if your name wins, do not claim them as yours. The goal is to come up with fandom-wide names for unnamed characters that we can all share, so it isn’t nice to steal one by claiming it as yours, whether your name wins or not :)
7.) Again, promote your names if you’re passionate, but you must comment the idea as well!
8.) You’re free to suggest the same name for multiple clones! However, not at the same time. Some weeks we will have several polls going, so wait until a name suggestion has been closed/outvoted before suggesting it again. Along those lines…
9.) No doubles! If you comment a name that’s already in rotation or has already been used, I’ll just comment under yours to let ya know.
10.) SPREAD THIS! The goal is fun and to get as many people in on it as we can! The more the merrier, and it will be 10X as fun with a hundred people rather than ten! Come have fun :D
11.) Don’t take this too seriously! As of now, it’s just a game and way to unite the SPOP/Spacebat community. You are free to not accept a name or ignore this challenge. It’s more so to have fun with the show and giving names to all these unnamed characters. And if we can get officially recognized, you could say you helped name characters on the show! But yeah, in the end, this is just for fun :)))
NOW GO SPREAD THIS!!! AGAIN, WE START THURSDAY, AUGUST SIXTH.
