Hi H.G.

I didn't know Kirin is related to Waffle/Phoenix as a name somewhere, if that's what you are saying. I'd felt they were independent, based on common past usage on CVP. I'm kind of bummed out by your suggestion, because I've used Kirin and Waffle in many games, including in the names of games themselves, some published already, some still unpublished. 'Phoenix' instead of 'Waffle' gave me a name-collision issue one time for a CV idea of mine, and I also thought sometimes Waffle made a better sounding part of a game name in the case of some of my unpublished games, too.

It is a similar story for my usages of 'Warmachinewazir', in the case of several/many as yet unpublished games (including in the name of the games themselves, where this one long 'word' seemed preferable to use to 'Woody Rook' to me, and Tower by itself seemed ambiguous, e.g. could mean rook).

Note to editor(s): I have not changed the Metadata for my games that I think are ready, as I feared it might cause lots of vital game information to be inadvertently deleted, as has happened to people in the past. Perhaps editor(s) can change the Metadata for me, as they may have done for other people's as yet unpublished games in the quite recent past.
