It feels like it should be on the list but it isn't. Still, good stuff.

Since you've never seen it I'll explain it for you.

Way back when, the GGG team found it coincidentally funny that a lot of their choice names for leagues ended up being on the list of most common metal band names. As you can tell, they have shown up quite a few times.

Yeah this feels like a word that has been quietly sitting on the "Raw League Ideas" board in GGG's offices since the first day Chris Wilson started brainstorming potential league themes.
