My First Blog Contest!
Posted by Amanda on September 25th, 2007 . Filed under: Blogging, Contest .I usually don’t do stuff like meme’s and contests and things here. But I have to. Just this once.
I’m having a contest to name this blog! I’m not going back to Imago Dei and Mandi Kaye is just too plain and boring.
So, I need a name. And you all are far more creative than I am, so I’m asking you for help!
What does the winner get?
A guest post here. The winner of the contest will be able to write a blog post on the topic of their choice (excluding erotica) and perhaps get a slightly different readership than their normal blog gets. It’s not much, I know, but it’s the best I can do.
Entries should be submitted via comments on this post no later than Friday, September 28th.
It’s my blog, so I get to pick the one I like the best.
If there’s not one I like by then, I’ll extend the deadline.
Questions?
Why are you still reading? You should be off thinking of an incredible name for this blog!

Point of Light
Black and White (or its offspring: Light and Dark, Night and Day)

The new picture is beautiful…I can see your whole face without the slinky!
O.K., up to the task.
Seeking Shalom
Woman on the Way
I know…weak. I will ponder it a little and share more. I am sure we can find a creative moniker for you!

hmmm… actually I like “I’m friggin Tired”… I may rename my blog.

To kind of steal a name: Simplex Via (The Simple Way in Latin.)
Causa quod Fides (Reason and Faith in Latin.)
That’s all I can think of, but since you like Latin, the translator I used is here: http://www.tranexp.com:2000/Translate/result.shtml

Excavating Soul
September 27th, 2007 at 6:17 pm
I’m for Aenigmia Animae… “Riddles of the Soul”.
September 28th, 2007 at 1:50 pm
Sorry, that should be Aenigmia Animabis… damn genitive case.

That one is good, Scott.

Is there a winner?
September 30th, 2007 at 7:03 pm
Not yet! I don’t really blog on the weekends, which is why I haven’t posted an update.
Nothing really sticks out to me, yet. Maybe I’m just too picky and hard to please…

Honestly..I really like “Ramandapage!”(with an exclamation after it) It’s not too serious, plays on rampage, Amanda,etc.
It’s fun and cute!
I know it was meant as a joke, but I like it!

I’m with Terri. rampage, Amanda, your page, it’s all there! It would need a light-hearted tag line after that to soften the rampage part.

Let me know if you want me to update your header once you choose a new name.
Oh, and I really like the new pic.
These names probably stink, but here are my thoughts:
Journey
Stop the Ride!
Laughing through the Shadows
Against the Current
Metamorphosis [or] Evolving
Finding My Way
Choosing Truth
No Matter the Cost [talking about being true to yourself]
Faith and Doubt
A Cracked Pot [we’re all flawed in some way]
Winding Paths
[we never know what lies around the] Bend in the Road

I of course like ramandapage too, but i’m a little biased. I hope you arent worried about letting a flaming atheist like me me post on your blog (if that happens to be anything that might worry you about using any of my ideas).
October 1st, 2007 at 5:41 pm
Oh, Tech! If I were worried about that, I would have put you (and a lot of my other commenters) on moderation a long time ago!
That’s definitely NOT an issue.
I’m just picky.
