This sounds good IMHO. Incorporating the stud count into the name somehow
seems to be a good venue to explore. I suppose the other advantage is that
it might be a little more self-explanatory to new folks....I only found out
what BURPS were a couple months ago :>
Maybe by using the Roman numerals followed by a number to clarify?
100 stud = SEE1 or C1
200 stud = SEE2 or C2
300 stud = SEE3 or C3
400 stud = SEEDEE4 or CD4
500 stud = DEE5 or D5
Too boring?
Cheers,
