Sorry for the nitpicking, but shouldn't it be "yin" instead of "ying"?

yes, it was a bit tongue in cheek (doesn't twin so well with Yang, although it is prolly more "philosophically" correct)

/me wipes the dust off this thread.
We only have one basename left - Mythical Matrix - so we'll need a few more suggestions as we have two new bases in the oven.
I added "Kaapstad" to the list. In English that would be "Cape Town". I'd suggest it for the base that I proposed to build near the southern tip of our continent (see the pictures in the IAF thread).
Also, I'd suggest to call that 3500 mountain created by that earthquake "Ben Byte" or "The Height of Logic", names already appearing on the list.

What about "Pinacle of Logic"? Not sure on the spelling, but it seems suitable for a mountain location.

Pinnacle of Logic sounds good.
Base name suggestions: Binary Bastion, Efficiency Edifice, Input Gates, Output Node, Collective Conglomeration, Full-technology integration experiment (this could be a base where we begin our first experiments in complete cybernetic integration into the government. The process would be long and difficult, but we can finally complete the experiment when we discover digital sentience).

Well, we could have a base built at the top of a mountain called "The Tower of Googlie" and have Tassagrad on the slope up to it although I suggest this because of the fond memories of being Mayor of New Tassagrad of my deep love and respect for our Godhood team

Binary Bastion is excellent by the way
How about Wall of Fire instead of fire wall? Or even "Great walls of Fire"!
I don't think we should name bases after the gods of the game. They're not really CyCon, which is after all who we are. Tassagrad also sounds like a Hive base rather than a CyCon base.

Well then just don't vote on it. 
I fully updated the list and did a little reorganizing, so a poll can be held any time.

Unless there are new suggestions, I'll start a new base name poll with the following 24 suggestions: - Akiria
- Recursive Nirvana
- Network Junction
- The Tower of Googlie (at top of mountain)
- Yang's Yang
- TheUoPSucks (captured UoP base)
- Archaic Aftermath (captured UoP base)
- Kaapstad (base on south tip)
- Binary Bastion
- Tassagrad (on slope below The Tower of Googlie)
- Lemmington
- Mornington Crescent
- And Or Gate (on a canal site)
- Impaler Input
- Pride in Numbers
- Temple of Tron
- NodeRunner
- Byte City
- Borg Bastion
- Cyborg Citadel
- Silicon Valley
- Mainframe Mines
- Write-in
- Xenobanana
Oh yeah, I have a suggestion for a sea base name: Athena Anchorage. For the new members, who Athena is can be read in Digital Data Download (3D) - Issue 3.

I second DBTS's "Fire Wall" idea. That would be an excelent name for a base that is defensive in nature and between us and an enemy. Unfortunatly we havent got any base like that so lets put that on the back burner untill something comes along that fits well.
Also I was wondering are base name poles linked to a specific location or are they independent of location. I would very much prefer they be location based as the "And Or Gate" name realy needs to be that canal base at 81/63 or the name losses half its meaning.
This brings up another Point, if "And Or Gate" wins we have to name the water on western side the "And Bay" and the water to the east "Or Straits"
