You like to send people to certain posts. See post #1

He said "official gofundme campaign to raise money to build the suit."

Sorry my bad. I over looked that post. I'm still not donating.

I am not sure if you all or Cory realize the reality of today's unconformtable world, so I will say it:

Some people will only see "race" if the Gator will be white.
Some people will only think we are making fun of people with "albinism" by calling the mascot "Albineaux"

I know it sounds crazy, but it is the country we live in of everyone getting feelings hurt nowadays. Yea its crazy because a black man actually created this mascot with no intentions of any of the above, but out of his love for UL. He is super talented.
Just stating the reality of the sitituation. 20 years ago we didn't have to deal with things like this, but now we do.

So keep the Gator, make him red or green and change the name.

That's the same thing that my sources are telling me. The name will never get approved.

What happens to the money if yall only reach half the goal to make the "suit"?

They keep it. Corey where you at?

Excited to show y’all what I’ve been working! Talk to y’all tomorrow. Last image before the drop.

Geaux Cajuns!

The drop got delayed?

Damn dude, you proved My point.

A white alligator instantly will be questioned as "Why in the living hell is he white?"

What's the answer going to be?

The go fund me didn't drop today. Guess Ckrey got scared when folks asked if he would refund the money if it all wasn't rasied.

This is just confusing. Half of the presentation suggest we need a spirit leader and half suggest we need a mascot. Which is it? Are you trying to create a spirit leader or mascot? i applaud your effort, but to raise money for something the university will probably shut down is questionable. Some of the presentation has misspelled words that needs to be cleaned up.

You're all wasting your money.

Not me as I am not giving money towards this. Was already told that a white alligator with the name Albineaux was a no go.

Yall should start a Go Fund Me for the legal fees for using UL's IP on this campaign.

Can the residential RP lawyers chime in on this?

Otto the Orange of Syracuse was unofficial for 17 years. The for almost two decades, students just had their own thing. It wasn’t until the admin’s attempts for a new character couldn’t beat Otto the Orange that the admin fully adopted him. You don’t need the university’s blessing right now because history has shown it can come later.

If someone said they would fund the suit completely if the name changed, I would do it. I’m not stubborn on his name. But I can’t do something from the opinion of someone who doesn’t like the project in the first place. Because a lot people do like the name.

I have been giving you hints. They don't like the name.and color.

I mean, why the F not? It's only one of our two school colors.

I swear, Martin Hall — which has about as much imagination as a box of rocks — reacts like this every time an idea comes from outside of it. It's never good enough.

Fix the name if you don't like it. If you don't like the color, then why have white as a color in the first place?

Or come up with something of your own if you think you can do better.

Cory, this is a great idea that deserves to be considered. If it doesn't happen, I'm really sorry, but you won't be the first person whose bright spark of creativity gets snuffed out by mediocre, insecure minds. You're destined for great things sir.

You are asking the wrong person. Don't shoot the messenger.
