In the thread "Just in case, when indie-rpg fails...", I have explained how I now am the proud owner of the currently rather useless domain rpdgx.net.

I was wondering, any nice ideas of what to put on rpdgx.net or what RPDGX could mean?

I think I can offer link-through subdomains for the best ones, so it's a bit of a contest. :-) They'll only last one year though...

Um...
Role Play Delux Gaming... X
Roleplayers do good X (hehe, just a funny idea [x is a drug, btw])

No more ideas, but at least there's one!

Isn't it RPGDX, not RPDGX?

     It's obvious: "RPDGX" is short for "Rapid Graphics"; so rapid, in fact, that you haven't any time for vowels.
     Alternatively, it could stand for "Real-Time Progressive Dynamic something something" (the last two don't really matter). Now, it doesn't mean anything, as such, but with a name like that you'd make a killing going public and selling before anyone realizes you don't actually produce anything.
     Good luck.

Rabid Pigs Damage Great Xylophones
Really Perverted Dogs Greet Xenophobes

okay, now for serious stuff...

since it seems to be the 'in thing' to use a captial X for words that start with an e, the last one could be something like eXtended, or eXta, or even the dreaded 'eXtreme'

Or even.. tumtadadum... eXperience!

Thanks, lot's of cool (or just funny) ideas here. I guess the X is the most difficult part, it doesn't even mean anything in RPGDX either. The RaPiD GraphiX is certainly the most believable of all, as it doesn't have a problem with the X and it actually makes sense.

Now comes the second challenge, to think of a nice subdomain. I can make any subdomain link to an arbitrary IP address, so anybody who is still in need of a readable link to his server, just make your wish. I'm excluding the obvious subdomains as www, mail and related protocols.
