We Almost Called Ourselves “Booby Hatch”
One of the tasks on the agenda for our Advanced CGD group meeting was to decide on a name for our “studio” that would be making our game. We tossed around a couple ideas, got nowhere, and the someone suggested “Single Cell”. Since that implied we were a bacterium, I searched “cell” in a thesaurus. Considering it just searched through names and synonyms for the word “cell”, the results got pretty random fairly fast. Since we weren’t making progress anyway, I decided to keep scrolling though the results and we laughed at some of the results that showed up. Well, one of the places “cell” was found was in relation to an insane asylum. In that entry, someone noticed the phrase “booby hatch” — seriously. We almost went with Booby Hatch Studios as our name, but we decided that while extremely funny, it was maybe slightly inappropriate. We ended up settling on the much less controversial Watcher Studios.
I have no movie plans for tomorrow, so I’ll likely just be working on some of the stuff I need to write. The production contract for Advanced CGD and the information packet that will be sent out to companies for the game event are the first two things that come to mind, but I bet I’ll end up with something else to do before the weekend is over. Starting on my OS HW probably wouldn’t be a bad idea either (the normal HW, not the project).
