I know i am going to probably get laughed at, but what i am about to say and suggest i do not say it lightly, but with the backing of many and many a player both knew and especially old.

For as long as I can remember, since my first days in Sigil and in the years since, that lovable garbage eater has been at the center of everyone's hearts. They have theorized that there might be some secret cult devoted to him, or maybe hes really a clever fiend in disguised, sucking up the loot to build a massive army bent on world domination...maybe he is secretly the lady's pet...or maybe green piece of snot someone disgarded...

Regardless of his origins and how or why he came into existance, hide-your-trinkits-it-is-coming should be NO MORE.

I am officadlly lobbying for the devs to make a few simple key strokes and clicks to make offical.

He has earned his true name and his name should be Bob! Make it so!.

I am completely and utterly dead serious about this.

Sign the petition everyone! Its on a piece of infinite parchment! Lets see those +1s!

I play:
Miranda Ildesserin-"You have no idea what fear is, the greatest fear a mother can have is that of her child growing up...alone"
Eisinar Mindblade: Illithid Soul Knife: "As long as I have my mind, i am never with out a weapon".

But...but...Bob is the name of the Beholder mascot in the prison :(
I just want to kill monsters and get prizes for it. Is that REALLY so much to ask for?

Bob is Bob. Let none disagree with this sentiment, lest they be shunned. Shunned.
The almighty player of...
Ugdum Wogshurd, Arcanist, Diplomat, Demonologist, Duelist, Scholar and general do-gooder, is that enough titles for you?

I'm ready to be shunned. :P I've personally never liked the name "Bob" and been actively trying not to use it.

I think the name "Hide-Your-Trinkets-It-Is-Coming" is great, and cool, and I like it better.

"From the realms below we ride,
And in terror they run and hide,
From the shadows of old we rise,
Awakened, from the dark!

Over the ancient ruins we fly,
Where the old kings go to die,
And the new kingdoms rising high,
Awakened, from the dark, dark slumber!"

If you want to call it Bob, just call it Bob. You don't need a name change anyway.

If you wanna go name something Bob, I think it'd be more fitting to name the huge serpent in the zone off the main swamp in Minauros Bob. :P

"Bob" is Cage Cant meaning "To steal". The implication is that if you drop something, he comes along and "Bobs" it.

Hence, Bob.
That which does not kill me makes me stranger.

I added a poll, We are about to update the bazaar and its a three second change so why not. You have till the new Bazaar goes in to cast your votes!. Does hide-your-trinkits-it-is-coming get a name? Is it finally time for him to be seen as a person?. Or shall he forever remain a slave to the task appointed to him by the staff? You decide!.
Do not hesitate to send me a PM if you:
- Require assistance with a staff or player conflict
- Would like to join the testing team
- Waiting on a staff ruling for longer then a week
- Want to join or start an event for the Harmonium, Transcendent Order, or Free League

I like "Hide-Your-Trinkets-It-is-Coming". It has charm. "Bob" is too much of an earth-English/American moniker.
