What's your inspiration?
Id like to know everybody's town names and why you chose them

Was it you thought of a random name or does it have more meaning?

Re: What's your inspiration?
Squintroplis= Who doesn't want a town named after them?
Rock Bottom= A sad little rock town.
Sulfs Up= sunny sulfur town on the beach.
Polis Sausage= Probably should have stayed just polis
I guess I like having the resource in the name; although polis sausage actually produces low grade crystal so go figure. Guess I'm lacking proper inspiration.

Vinitta 'mermory sorrow and thorn'
Kwanitupul 'mermory sorrow and thorn'
