Essence of Amirox
Keep in mind, in-jokes and references need to stand the test of time. The current funny troll personas will probably all be banned six months from now and replaced with other idiots. We should be subtle and think long term, so that five years down the road, "yeah, that's the neogaf inn" still applies.
Better.
Although the true origins of the elixir commonly known as the Essence of Amirox are unknown, its name is derived from an Imperial courtier who famously falsified official records retroactively so as to win a petty argument with another member of the court. When a scribe reavealed this fact publicly, Amirox was stripped of his position and executed. He is not known to have possessed any particular alchemical skills, and the elixir of his namesake is believed to have first appeared over a century after his death.
I have an awesome ideas or two. In talks with the "higher ups", if that makes any sense. What I want is the best for Obsidian and the community. Will update the moment I have something solid!

An update of what's being discussed as I don't want to keep you all in the dark as it's as much of an involvement of you guys than it's mine.
A lot of you voiced out that you rather have digital products rather than physical, especially when you account for shipping costs, the chances of "winning" them and what not. I've been trying to see what's a feasible choice where everyone's participation counts.
I cannot promise anything but I've suggest to Feargus Urquhart that we deal with this outside Kickstarter (especially since they are looking into Paypal funding, and we getting out funding via Paypal will make the transaction smooth).
Long story short: That reservation "might" be cancelled and this should be becoming an entity of it's own. The "Name and Design" pledge will still stay, but outside Kickstarter, and that everyone who pledges gets something in return.
I will update you all on what's decided and whether they agree or disagree. In fact, let me know what you guys suggest and approve of!

Sounds great! And I am pretty sure the whole matter is in good hands with you
Although, that means that we'll still have the INN naming stuff AND open the kickstarter spot again, right? So its now 4 inns made by random people in this game. I really start to wonder how they want to keep all of that still in the overall style of the game. Hopefully, this doesnt become a big "patchwork" game.
Ideal situation IMO would be if we could drop all the individual goodies and just get a more fleshed out Inn with a vaguely GAF influenced sidequest or something involved.
Edit: EviLore is right though. It would probably best if we kept out "usernames" out of these and try to come up with stuff that universally applies to GAF. The believer is a perfect example of that, which also should work pretty well in any RPG world. Hard to think of many of those though.
"Gaffery" and "The Bishop's Hammer" seem solid.Keep in mind, in-jokes and references need to stand the test of time.

P.S. Just realized: We broke the $1,000 mark!!

46 Backers
$1070/5,000 PLEDGED!
(Average of $23 per NeoGAFfer!)
Biggest donation: $150.00!
I'll throw in 5 bucks what the hey.
I'm concerned about in jokes cluttering things with all of these rewards though. Then again if any company has the writing skill to take bad ideas from donors and turn them into in game content that isn't out of place it's Obsidian.
How about something like
The Glorious Orb
The Orange and Grey.

Well I've pledged to this in addition to pledging for a copy of the game so anything extra would be a bonus but it would make a lot more sense to arrange digital goods instead of physical because it'll be expensive to split all the physical goodies and ship them all over to different gaffers.

I agree.
No trolls or usernames as neither of these stand the test of time. No Bishop, no Amirox.
I think I said a couple of pages ago something like The Believer's Slumber.
This is exactly why -- in ten years time it would be wonderful if it was still relevant.
