Mach3 Disposable Razor
or the name of any other shaving product?
I would call it Occam (Occam's Razor is a principle from philosophy. Supposes that there exist two explanations for an occurrence).
Ya know? Ya win, or ya lose.
I second this. Damn fine name!
Slash?
Or Sweeney Todd.
Or or Lil Ripper.
And @Blind Owl I thought it was the size of the fuel tank that mattered?
It is. But uou do need the piping to get the fuel from the tank to the engine. Not much piping, but just enough. ;)
In a true example of my Heralds name "Example of Indecision" I have decided to change it.
My Herald is now called the "Brave Sir Robin", the below video will explain all. Watch it all, if you have flown a Herald it makes sense:
I want this song to play on all frequencies whenever I open its SATA dishes.
"Brave Sir Robin ran away
(No!)
Bravely ran away away
(I didn't!)
When danger reared its ugly head
He bravely turned his tail and fled
(No!)
Yes, brave Sir Robin turned about
(I didn't!)
And gallantly he chickened out
Bravely taking to his feet
(I never did!)
He beat a very brave retreat
(All lies!)
Bravest of the brave, Sir Robin!
(I never!)"

Man, that is absolutely perfect!! I call mine the "Edward Snowden" for basically the same reason, gather a bunch of data, and then bravely haul ass to Russia!! But I must say, "Brave Sir Robin" is much more TEST!!
Thank you very much, after getting a feel for the ship I thought it was spot-on.
After a very long time I have finally settled on a name for my 350R.
So, names I had considered: I was originally going to call it "Sotally Tober" as a test theme name, but after flying it in these latest patches was going to go for "Mr. Sandman" as it KO's me all the time or "Pawn Sacrifice" from the WaxWorld episode of Red Dwarf where Kryten and Queen Victoria take on the evil droids and their codename over the radio to Rimmer was 'Pawn Sacrifice', as i die a lot in that ship and like the name...
...but today, April 14th 2017 with the old RSI forum closing in favour of Spectrum, I have been left wondering exactly when Zero Hour is going to fall... and there it is, the perfect name for my 350R.
"Zero Hour"
I can't think of a better name for it and I don't think i'll come up with one more related to my experience in the SC community... it's a keeper.

1. That's a great freaking name. Good work.
2. Thanks for reviving this thread. I've been meaning to. That being said, I still haven't decided on a name for my Carrack. Woe is me. Indecision 2017. Haha.
Shadow Reaper
Space Marshal
I am thinking I need an PMUV just so I have something to name "Thunder Chicken".
Thanks, I have to spend a stupid amount of time working out what suits a ship, just need to wait for those decals now...
As good an excuse as any, you've got the name, just need the ride to go with it.
if I were to name a ship it would have to be, "What, me worry?"

That's where I sit. Again. Haha.
Why are ships so hard?
I don't have a ship to go with this name yet, but I have just come up with, the "Depths of Khewra" which I think is pretty cool.
Khewra is the worlds second largest Salt mine. Where is the biggest? Some would say it was The RSI forum before it closed, of course! :smile: I think the name would go well with a deep-diving gas miner.

I like it. Well thought out: much like all of my posts!
