Cat Life Mod for Half-Life Name the Cat news

In late 2003 and early 2004 there was a number of Cat-Life planning discussions on the Garg-o-holics forums.  One of the most important public topics was a name.  The name of our cat.

As discussed previously, such topics have long since been lost to the void of the internet.

So much the better.

As the project has been driven forward by the current team, the issue of a name has arisen once again.  Specifically, the team would like to invite the public to aid in the naming of our cat.

The process will be simple, and we encourage suggestions.

Part One of the process will begin tonight.  Suggest pet names for our cat.  To do so, send an email to feedback@bwl.hl2files.com or post a message in this thread.  Discussion and "lobbying" is encouraged.  Use the forum thread to support a given name.

Part 2 will begin on Saturday, the 22nd of March.  At that time, we will open a poll of about five names for voting.  That poll will be open for one week.  The name with the most votes will be proposed to the mod team for use in the mod.

This way, we will have a community chosen name by the end of the month and we can refer to our title character as something other then "cat".

Team Cat-Life is still openly recruiting new talent.  To join, drop BiGToM a line via PM or on MSN at sayrken@hotmail.com

Positions still open...
3D Artists/Improvement - Mesh, skin, animate, and improve the 3D models.  The cat model is already working and in-game thanks to bodyhun.  However, help in making custom skins & models, or tweaking existing content is still welcome.

Mappers and Level Designers - Make a map or improve existing maps.  The choice is yours.

Sound Developers - Mix and record custom sound effects.

Music Composers - Mix and write custom musical scores for the game.

Voice Actors - Certain key characters need spoken dialogue... can you act?
