You rule the world...what do YOU want for your title?

[Ranchoth]

The setup is simple...you've become the unquestioned lord and master of the Earth.

Now, the hard part...what do you want for your TITLE? The classic "Emperor" (Or "Empress")? Something moderne, yet subtly scary, like "Chancellor"? Old-fashioned "King" or "Queen"?

Heck, you can even make up a term of your own. ("Technopope"?) I just ask that you share it with the rest of us, here.

As for me...right now, I'm torn between "First Chairman" or "Lord Regent." Depending on if I want my rule to look semi-"legitimate," or if I'd rather go all out and wear full medieval armor, with a hat made out of somebody's skull.

So...any thoughts?

[The King of Soup]

I'll go with Mark Twain. When I'm in charge, call me "The Boss."

[Odinoneeye]

I'd keep them all guessing.

One week it would be "Lord High Dominator", next week "Supreme Grandmaster", "Archchancellor", "Patrician" or even "Whizgoolabang"

Of course, anyone guessing wrong as to my proper title would be slowly tortured until dead. Quickly tortured if I'm in a good mood.

Consult my book "Evil Despoting for Fun and Profit" for more inforamation.

[Omnipresent]

"Good-Deed-Doer"

[calm kiwi]

Mr President.

[Johnny Bravo]

"Captain."

[Hostile Dialect]

The Burninator, of course.

[Sami41]

"The Greatest Person Alive"

I only rule a few people right now, but they know who The Greatest is.

[RandomLetters]

I always liked the sound of "Generalissimo." It just flows off the tongue.

[OtakuLoki]

"Mugwump"

[j_kat_251]

"The Man" would be cool. Or for terrifying fear, "Dictator Perpetuum", "Grand Imperator", or "The Final Judge". What would be cool is devising all the descriptions after your name, like "Defender of the Faith" and "Protector of Mexico", except totally awesome like "Eater of Worlds", "rex homo sapiens" or "THE ASSASSIN AGAINST WHOM NO LOCK
WOULD HOLD".

[Paul in Qatar]

I like 'Paul,' seriously.

Of course ever other Paul would have to change their names.

[Winston Smith]

Mr. Smith will be fine, as long as you smile when you say it.

[Eve]

She Who Must Be Obeyed

[Winston Smith]

"The Greatest Person Alive"

I only rule a few people right now, but they know who The Greatest is.

I thought that said "the Greatest Porn Star alive...". Heh.

[don't ask]

Call me Bwana.

[Sami41]

I thought that said "the Greatest Porn Star alive...". Heh.

:) I have been thinking about a career change.

~TGPA

[plnnr]

You may call me "the Grand Poobah," or "the Most Immaculate Potentate"

[Draelin]

A friend of mine actually had business cards printed up that said "High Queen of the Universe."

I think I'd probably go more traditional. Empress, High Priestess of the Draelican Faith, something like that.

Although I wouldn't say no to Grand Moff.

[silenus]

"God-Emperor" will do just fine.





Either that, or "Bob."

[Bambi Hassenpfeffer]

My title would be Imperator, but I would be addressed as "Your Eminence".

[CandidGamera]

I always thought "Imperator" had a nice ring to it.

[CandidGamera]

My title would be Imperator, but I would be addressed as "Your Eminence".

*points at Bambi* Ahhh! Get out of my head! ;)

[Lsura]

Supreme Goddess and Librarian of the Universe.

I was going to allow my subjects to use SGLU for short, but that's to easily typoed to SLUG - although none of my subjects would ever consider doing such a thing.

[Chastain86]

My first thought was "Overlord." But I think that might create some dissention in the ranks.

Of course those dissenting will be boiled in oil, so maybe the title fits.

[AmericanMaid]

I'd like Supreme Lightness of Being. I can be addressed by Your Brilliance.

[Götterfunken]

"Comrade." Because we shall all be equals in my society.

Although I, of course, will be somewhat "more equal" than anyone else...

[VarlosZ]

Since I imagine I won't be elected to the post of Supreme Ruler, how about Lord High General.

[Farmwoman]

Mommy.

[Soapbox Monkey]

I wouldn't need a title. My oppressed subjects would be forbidden to even speak my name, under penalty of death.

>=D mwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

[twickster]

"Good-Deed-Doer"

A phrase I especially like because of the four consecutive sets of double letters.

Me, though -- "Philosopher Queen."

[Ponder Stibbons]

Naw, you all are approaching this wrong. I'd really mess with the heads of the serfs (i.e., the rest of the population of earth).

I'd be known as "That Asshole". You would address me as "Hey, Asshole". If you didn't address me with enough disdain in your voice, I would have you tortured. If you actually tried to address me in a polite fashion, the penalty would be death. If my vast network of secret spies ever heard you referring to me other than "that asshole" or a similar derogatory term, the penalty would be death.

Yes, that will do nicely. Bwa-ha-ha-ha-haa!!

[RainGrowsBrite]

I like Sire.....

Or The Childlike Empress

or

Earth Enchantress

[Shade]

Tempting to go with "Biggus Dickus" and arrest everyone who smirks...

[emekthian]

Most High Supreme Emperor and Almighty Immortal God King Emekthian, ruler of all Earth, Sea and Sky, Overlord of all creation, Lord of all the lords, king to all kings, prime minister to all prime ministers, supreme Mugwump and Moff, Khâmpeth Lyanghî, Imbiatwrai S'eskauhro Methámïrineiva, protector of his friends, torturer-by-fecal-cranial-embedding and executioner of his enemies, feared by his slaves and subjects, most gorgeous to hot girls, boner-inducing in gay men, owner of the most supremely long schlong, really cute, master of Super Metroid and Zelda III, haver of the best looking big toe in all the universe, just as smart as Cecil Adams, the final authority about wether a word is misspelled in Inglish, and posessor of the most great power of all eternity.

[GrizzRich]

A friend of mine said that when he became Emperor of Earth, that I could be his MINISTER OF PLEASURE AND PAIN.

Now THAT'S a cool title!

[DeVena]

I actually have business cards that read "DeVena, Mistress of Pain".

History may remember me as DeVena the Fat, but my minions will call me w h a t . e v e r . I . w a n t. <stony glare>

"Yes, Mistress" has such a nice ring to it. ;)

[caray]

Hmmm. I like either what Eve said, She Who Must Be Obeyed

or what Farmwoman said. Mommy

Or, both!

[Phelan]

I'll take "The richest man in town!!!"

[muldoonthief]

Admiral of the Ocean Sea

Though my close advisors could call me "Skipper". If they angered me, I'd beat them with my hat.

[Mr. Excellent]

Nothing at all. When - not if, but WHEN - I am the unquestioned lord and master of Earth, my name alone shall be all the title I need. Titles are tools with which to remind those you command that you command them - but when I command all, I hardly think such tools shall be necessary.
:D

[Mr. Excellent]

Of course, "Arbiter" would be kinda badass.

[Bosda Di'Chi of Tricor]

Caesar

Archon Belisarius

Or, on a more modern note...




























Big Brother.

[TheOnlySaneOne]

"Sir". :cool:

[Ghanima]

Well I like Supreme Goddess myself, it was a self-imposed nickname in high school, but that is so eighties now.

How about "your highnessty." Or would it be spelled highnesty? I've always liked the sound of that.

[krisolov]

Perfect Master has a nice ring to it, I think.

[CWN]

Hmmm
since I would rename the world LennyLand
I would keep the name Lenny!
all my ministers would also be named Lenny.Len or Leonard.
such a underused name

[Qadgop the Mercotan]

Pontifex. As in Qadgop the Pontifex.

[Already in Use]

Mommy.Dearest.


Also:
Destrovator.
The Prophet.
Bwana Dik.

[bittersweet]

Sweet Highness of All That is Worthy

[Spudo]

Mr. Excellent would be good, but since it's someone else's name here I'll go with... The Enlightened Perfect Master.

[Suburban Plankton]

Tempting to go with "Biggus Dickus" and arrest everyone who smirks...

What about those of us who burst out in a fit of uncontrollable laughter?

[SanguineSpider]

Lolth... *snicker*



;)




Most Beloved Empress of the People or Our Serene Lady of the Light.

[Bricker]

Guided by countless S/F novels as a child, I'd probably go with something along the lines of Supreme Terran Chancellor. Simple and to the point, and fits nicely on an embroidered polo shirt.

[don't ask]

Maybe Charter Member.

[dal_timgar]

DRAGONLORD

I was born in the year of the Dragon.

Sun Tzus's ART OF WAR will be required reading in school. Passing accounting will be mandatory for graduating from highschool.

Dal Timgar

So...any thoughts?

[RandMcnally]

Feuhrer

The Grand Puhba of Scrumtralecense

Great One

or just plain HIM!

This is a good thread. It gives you all a chance to practice addressing your future ruler. It is important to address me correctly, or else you'll be taken out and shot...er....I mean...a...sent to happy, fun, non-purging camps (this is why I'll be ruler).

[Captain Carrot]

I'd cook up a ridiculously long list of titles, and force the entire popluation to memorize all of them. Whoever refused, or changed some of the titles would be slowly whipped to death with scented bootlaces. (Shamelessly stolen from Terry Pratchett in one of his earliest Discworld books)

[Ephemera]

Praetor.

It's an old Roman title, not one of particular power so far as I know, but I like how it looks and how it sounds. Plus, it's the title of the sovereign of the Romulan Star Empire and since I'm such a Rihannsu fanboy, I would want that to be my title. :D

[TeaElle]

Beneficent Maternal Protector, Kind Leader and Arbiter of Good Taste :p

[chefIL11]

it's simple... my people can call me "Well Hung"

[punkkid]

"God-Emperor" will do just fine.

We have a Lore fan among us.

[Farmwoman]

::Mommy stands gazing at her predecessor's lifeless body swinging from a tree and proclaims to her subjects, "Now that's Well-Hung. ::









You.
In the third row.
Stand up straight and don't slouch, dear.

[Tentacle Monster]

...Bwana Dik...

No no no. I am Bwana Dik.

Although I do like the way "Great Will Of The Macrocosm" sounds.

[SSgtBaloo]

I think I'd like to be known as "Curmudgeon in Chief".

I do however plan to be a benevolent dictator.

I'll be open to persuasion, but when people question my leadership they'd better have their facts together or they'll be banned from my presence. Muck up really bad and I'll ban you to the other side of the Earth. Since I'll be supreme ruler and travelling all the time, this may entail some inconvenience. The other side of the Earth may not be the same place (or even the same hemisphere) from day to day.

You're welcome.

--SSgtBaloo, Curmudgeon in Chief

[Sunshine and Smiles]

Obviously, I'd be known as "The Dread Pirate" Sunshine and Smiles

or

"The Baron de Sunshine"

or possibly

"Czar of Awesomeness," Sunshine and Smiles

[WeRSauron]

His Magnificence the Supreme Leader, commonly known as "our Beloved Leader."

Or, Lord Emperor, Son of Heaven, Sire of the Sun, Refuge of the Repentant, Font of Honor and Glory, Sustainer of Order, Holder of the Universe, Supreme Commander, Guardian of the People, Sole Sovereign Monarch over all Peoples.

WRS - you may now bow and honor Our Majesty.

[Nightwatch Trailer]

My formal title would simply be "Comrade."

If someone were to address me directly, however, they would refer to me as "Your Sublimity."

Or "King of Town."

[Nightwatch Trailer]

"Comrade." Because we shall all be equals in my society.

Although I, of course, will be somewhat "more equal" than anyone else...
Oops. Sorry, Comrade. Didn't mean to steal your title.

[Tokyo_Mann]

I'd like Supreme Lightness of Being. I can be addressed by Your Brilliance.
Sorry, already taken by Okawa Ryuho, a cult leader here in Japan. Although his offical title is El Cantare he is called the Supreme Lightness and the Light of the Universe. Now, that's a title I want on my name card. I bet it gets you into the best clubs anywhere.On March 23, 1981, Ryuho Okawa attained enlightenment. He received great revelations one after another from various angels of light, and realized his true identity was that of El Cantare, whose mission is the salvation of all humanity.

[Scuba_Ben]

For SanguineSpider, I suggest The Arachnocrat.

Personally, I like the classic Mikado.

To use the full title (with as many secondary and courtesy titles as I can think of):
The Supremely Exalted Scuba_Ben, Mikado of Earth, Emperor of the United States, Protector of Mexico, Maharaja, Earl Marshal, Grand Duke of Pfennig Ha'pfennig, Prince of Egypt, Nasi shel Y'rushlayim, Baronet of Ruddigore, KCB, KCVO, KE3OM, QRT.
