[Poll #880865]

(Inspired by a post on

supernatural_tv. I'm a fan of Roadies, myself. ~~Not because I coined it or anything.~~)

ETA: If you say something else, I'd love to know what! No copping out with a "None of the above" :P

Sorry, I'm one of those voting for neither, but I don't have a constructive suggestion to offer. I just don't like either of those idea at all. "Roadies" doesn't make me think of SPN at all, and "Hunters" is just weird to me - why would the fans be Hunters? I don't see either as a name I would be happy to associate with fandom.

Well, that is why I'm asking the question - there doesn't seem to be a good answer. I think those are fun options (we follow the boys on the road! *shrugs*) but I dunno. I just feel like the BEST FANDOM EVER should have a specific member name :)

Personally, I like either Winners or Chesters. =D

Or Impalers (Impalars?)! HAH. I should repost these in the

supernatural_tv post.

Hmmm, I can't say I'm really on board with those. But your ICON!!! YES!

Hahahahaha. That's hilarious.

I agree that there isn't a really good answer to this. I have to say, I don't find either of those suggestions particularly meaningful or amusing. "Roadies" has a lot of connotations to me, but none I want to associate with SPN. And "Hunters" seems a bit... pretentious, maybe? That's a bit strong, I suppose, but I just feel that if the characters in the show are called Hunters, the fans shouldn't adopt that name. "Browncoat" was different, it was something from the past in Firefly. Personally, I wouldn't like to be referred to as a Roadie or a Hunter.

Anyway, I think these sort of thing have to emerge naturally, and can't be forced. If nothing has developed for the SPN fandom so far, maybe there's a good reason for that.

Am I taking this too seriously? Blame it on the wet weather here in Scotland, 'kay? I'm a bit low today.

LOL why thank you! It's true, is it not? ;)

OH NOES *lol* T_T

I dont like Roadies it sounds ... weird. Hunters would be okay, if there's nothing else, but I'm not really happe with either.

It's hard to find a term equal to Browncoats. Because there's so much more to being a Browncoat than it just being a random term from the fandom. There's a real idea behind the name. I hope I'm making sense here *lol*

I'm not fond of either of those either

Spanners as opposed to SPNers.

Or we could be the Happy Horrors or Hellraisers

I don't like either. Whenever I refer to the fandom, at least in my head, I call them SPNers but it sounds like spinners. Like Kwaffers. But then, I don't really see why we NEED a name.

Definitely something else!!

I am totally voting Wincestees. :P

~~It covers 90% of the fandom, anyways.~~

I would love a "name" for us, because that just gets my t-shirt making muse perk up and smile broadly. Unfortunately, I can't think of much. But I'll try.

"Roadies" gives off that sleazy Tom Hanks vibe from the SNL episode where Aerosmith guest-starred on the "Wayne's World" sketch. And not the good kind of sleazy vibe. Like a sleazy Dean or Sam vibe. Mmm...sleazy!Dean and/or sleazy!Sam...*drool*. Where was I? Oh, yeah. But y'know what I mean? Bueller? Maybe I'm the only one who's seen that sketch.

I also agree that "Hunters" is kind of strange because we're the fans of the hunters.

However, because I don't have much to offer, I must say that they are fair tries. Let's see if I've got anything in me, though...

I want to make a reference to "Salt 'n' Burn", but...the only thing I could come up with was "Burners" which reminds me too much of "The Breakfast Club" in that Claire describes Bender as one...

Hm. Very puzzling.

Wow, please excuse the awful grammar....

We are SPNers. :D

zomg where is that pic in your icon from?

Lol!Everybody asks about it.I have posted it few days ago in

dean_sam

Aren't we Wincesters?

No, wait, that's just the special crew. *likes being in the special crew*

Coltists? Brotherhood? Spookbusters?

Yeah, I've got nothing.

Or if we want theme song potential, we could always shoot for 'Superfreaks'! *snort*
