name change

after giving it some thought, we've decided that a blog name-change was in order. we were looking for a name that offered up a little more about what we're all about, and "Elvis Does Wow" just really wasn't making that happen. and what are we all about, you ask? Alts, and lots of them.

coming up with a meaningful name was a bit tricky for us. there are some great class-specific blog names out there, such as Need More Rage (warrior) and Starshards FTW (priest). we don't stick to any one class for long, though, so that route's out for us. same reasoning applies to blog names focused around a character name (e.g., World of Matticus or Picklemonkey the Shaman). what made the process even more challenging is that the blogging community has grown quite large over the years. many folks have already laid claim to blog names that we were considering.

we played around with a lot of name variations that had "alt" in them somehow; "Legion of Alts", "Altoholic" (taken), "Altoholism" (sounds like a support group), "Alt Legion", etc. in the end, we settled on "Alts for One" as a play on The Three Musketeers motto; "one for all, and all for one." we thought it summed things up fairly well: one guy with lots of characters who all support each other (through crafting, farming, etc.). we'll see if it sticks...
