Poll: What should we be called?
Added 2019-04-07 19:37:45 +0000 UTCHowdy y'all!
So last Sunday, I asked y'all what you would like me to call you. You're the awesome folks whose support makes my comics possible, and while I can just keep calling you "patrons of my work," it's felt a little dry to me.
In that last post, I threw out some top-of-my-head suggestions, and y'all responded with a bunch more ideas in the comments. (We've had 65 comments on the post so far, with lots of good options. Currently, I'm leaning towards "Champions" or "Superheroes," but it's your opinion that matters.)
The suggestions are now in. It's time to put this out as a poll!
I've collected all the more popular choices as poll options. More than a few of your suggestions were a play on my last name, and I've included those too. :)
And just to be clear: the question isn't what all readers of my work should call themselves (although that might be an interesting question to explore on the main site). This is about how I should refer to those readers, like you, who support me on Patreon.
Please let me know which of the choices appeal to you the most. For this poll, you can vote for more than one option, because I think that makes the most sense, especially when there are so many choices.
Thank you for making this comic possible. Whatever you decide, you'll always be "superheroes" in my mind. :)
POLL: As my Patron, what you you like me to call you as a group?

I'm keeping quiet here so I don't influence the vote, but I wanted to say welcome to commenting on here! Good to hear from you, Pedro! :)

2019-04-10 00:20:27 +0000 UTCI was going to go for "Protectors", but then I saw "The Woolfpack" and had to change my vote (and comment for the first time - that's how much I love the name (and also how hilarious I find it))
2019-04-09 13:40:52 +0000 UTCWoolfpack is my favorite, though Alex may see it as self-promoting/ego-driven. It is forward thinking, though, as it will encompass more than TYP as he branches out (even though we already have Artifice).

2019-04-08 23:44:36 +0000 UTCI voted protector but I like Woolfkpack equally as much if not better... I didn't realize it was one or the other when I voted.

2019-04-08 19:24:12 +0000 UTCThe one I suggested after thought and the one that seems to be popular from others as well. Alex? you started it all Alpha.

2019-04-08 18:57:02 +0000 UTCOh, and one more thing, "Hey Champs" also has a nice ring to it. You know, let's you mix it up a bit. :-)

2019-04-08 05:31:12 +0000 UTCI like champions, because we are championing a cause. I agree with others that protectors is too repetitive. And in a weird way, I feel that if we call ourselves protectors, it detracts from the comic book characters. They have a special place in Alex's universe, and I would like to reserve that term for them. As for Wolfpack, I'm pretty sure I heard Alex mention that it was not his top choice, and I tend to agree. I just seems a bit silly to me, but I guess that why we're voting! ;-)

2019-04-08 05:28:20 +0000 UTCI actually kind of like “Protectors of the Young Protectors.” Wolfpack works for more than just this title, though. Bah, I’m rehashing the arguments and not helping the vote at all. 😆

2019-04-08 04:21:18 +0000 UTCSadly, Protector of the Young Protectors is too much repetition. Protector, protect protecting Protector.

2019-04-07 22:15:44 +0000 UTCProtectors!!
2019-04-07 22:14:07 +0000 UTCWolfpack!!
2019-04-07 21:35:56 +0000 UTCWhatever title we get, I'll be happy with it! ^_^
2019-04-07 20:46:08 +0000 UTCIs it gonna be a tight one? Protectors vs Woolfpack runoff?
