I still like naming it:
NERPS: ShadowLore


It's a nice clean acronym that can be applied to any of the topics we
might make. Has nice inside joke and a cute slam on GURPS. What mroe
could you want.

I like NERPS: ShadowLore, but I also like the idea of the NASGUL
thing... but I don't like the underworld life thing...
Anyway...

I like that, only how about

NERPS: ShadowCast

instead? It's a little snappier (and that was the point, yes?) and goes with
the other list names (RN and TK) nicely. Hmm, what about the others, though?

NERPS: ShadowSpots
NERPS: ShadowJobs

oooooooooo!!!!

I like it

Nerps: ShadowCast
ShadowSpots
ShadowJobs

sound really cool and keep the flavor of the game. Of course I tend to think of
anything beginning with the word Shadow as cool. And no - I am not that much of
a shadowrun Junkie - I have always like the Shadow.
