Took the Srihwacha Sauce out for a spin today.
That sounds really yummy - but I can't help but feel the word 'hwacha' hidden in the name is some kind of warning. Almost like I shouldn't be getting hungry at the sound of it, but scared. Very scared. :D

Like hundreds of tiny flavor rockets to the taste buds!

Sriracha sauce doesn't scare me.  Perhaps I'm not using enough?

I'm pretty sure half the people on this thread know it already but...

Pyramidion - Rainbow Crash
Because Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle are best ponies, I haven't thought up a good pun for Twilight, and the theme of my ship tends to be crashing. I feel it is a very fitting name... :D

My other ships got pony pun names, but I never fly them, so I couldn't even tell you which got what name.

I hope it's a glitch, Redria - but as I'm reading this the levels below your name are all level 1 apart from level 2 gunner.
I'm pretty sure that's not right. :P

What, am I a higher level in game? I swear, the only games I've ever played were the ones I played with you. I'm actually still a level 1 pilot!

But really, I played like, 5 matches in March 2013 when I got the game and it hardly ran, so I quit until I had a computer that would run it. It seems to have gotten stuck on those levels. I already emailed Muse about it now that I have started using these forums. It doesn't do to write extensive guides as a level 1 pilot. Just looks silly.

OOOH that explains it! I was wondering how a newbie could know all those things like a professional. [*And suddenly, everything made sense.*]

Yeah, I'm a level 12 pilot at this point.  8)
Just broke 1000 matches over the weekend. This game is consuming my life and I love it. Anyway, we are getting off topic.  :P

I've got some random alien names for all but two ships at the moment. Pyra and Junker. Junker i called Loyalty but since that's taken i'll rename all at some point.

The pyra i've flown a few times and established its name.

Blitzspear.

It's the name of the ship Nemesis the Warlock flies in 2000AD comics. An organic spaceship that can heal and has an extremely strong hide. Pointy and shoots fireballs or rams.

Spire:   Inspiracticalamitous - I love having people pronounce this one, it's not as impossible as it seems.
Goldfish:   Slow 'n' Horrible - It's a vague reference to the first episode of futurama, and supposed to be ironic and funny.
Mobula:   Deadliest Sky Pillow - An homage to the nickname of the ship i learned the mobula on, before i started piloting.
Pyramidion:   The Humble Bumper - This one changes a lot.
Junker:   goodluckship II - I'm not very good with the junker, it also has mines.
Squid:    Slippery Lovin' - Because
Galleon:    Tough Lovin' - Because

My favourite ship is a junker known as The Whaler, it is the first ship I used and the name stuck with me. I called it a whaler because it looks like a whale and the Steampunk of GoIO reminded me of Dishonored, which features a group known as The Whalers

I'd request you remove that word, quite honestly.

Archi, be aware the game is patrolled regularly by Mod's and even the Developers. Even if you are gay, and the ship name was meant in good humor, it would attract their wrath. Most of us would rather them save their wrath for actual trolls.

What if it's because he smokes a lot but never carries his own cigarettes? I could easily see that happening xD

Edit: Cigarettegot doesn't sound as good tbh...

All my ships got their names from Greek Mythology

Squid: Enyo - war/destruction
Junker: Eris - chaos/discord
Goldfish: Phobos - fear
Pyramidion: Deimos - dread
Mobula: Eos - Dawn
Spire: Nemisis - divine retribution
Galleon: Moros - doom/fate

Some of you might recognize the names from a certain game, it's actually from there I named them :)

And sometimes my ships may have some trolling names instead.
