Posted July 20, 2020 Well, the votes were clear. The names we picked the first time around did not create the inspiring feeling we were looking for, and so we took things back to the drawing board! This time, we had each dev pick two names they liked, and veto one, from those results we built a list to vote on and cast an internal vote. We then took the winning names and asked for feedback from the larger Wurm team to make sure we didn't cause another rumble of dissatisfaction. The names were then (accidentally) listed on the server listing page, which was a bit of an oopsie on our part, but the cats out of the bag now! Introducing:Harmony: PvENamed by SyhlDefiance: PvPNamed by Talor Harmony and Defiance were popular choices, with 7 and 5 entries, respectively. As stated in the competition announcement, the first entry qualified as the winning result, and we're pleased to announce that Syhl and Talor were the winning entrants. The start deed for Harmony shall be named Heartland (named by DragonNoir), and the start deed for the Mol-Rehan kingdom on Defiance shall be named Rumble (Named by ChampIAN) I'd like to take the time to thank you all personally, your feedback was for the most part constructive and positive. The voting went well and we hope these names better reflect the world in which we all play in. Towards the end of this week we'll be in touch with the four winners, each getting coupons for their prize! See you soon on Harmony and Defiance! 46 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 20, 2020 Are you going to tell us anything else about the servers/start deed? Will the starting areas have iron tiles, forges, etc like Havens Landing, or just a bartender and templar? Is the double skill gain event still hapening? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 20, 2020 I was really hoping I was first with Harmony, but I am not at all disappointed. Congrats to the winners. The Wurm Dev Team has really shown us they CARE and they LISTEN to feedback. I hope the Steam launch breaks records for Wurm Online! Cheers all around! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 20, 2020 The mob has been sated! Everyone go back to your homes! Please return the burning torches and pitchforks to the Quartermaster on aisle 5! Good names. Defiance & Harmony. For the love of me though, I can't recall the original names I've submitted. Memory is going. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Defiance (TV series) Defiance | PC & Console Game – Sci-fi Shooter MMO Heartland Canadian TV series That's just a dumb point. It's a word. That word is going to be used in a thousand different types of media. Independence, Wild, Serenity... these are all generic words that you can easily tie to multiple shows, books, and games. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
