1. Arzhahm Bowl - Awesome Bowl...in zamglish. ~ 03:02, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
2. Barhah Bowl - this suggestion was brought to you by Bleeding Obvious Inc. in conjunction with ~~ Chief Seagull ~~ ^talk 21:32, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

   Oh believe me, Barhah Bowl was the first one I thought of.~ 01:19, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

   I realize voting is over but I'd like to add my optional comment in support of the obvious best choice. ;) --_GANG Giles Sednik _CAPD 03:35, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

   Actually voting hasn't begun yet but I think that's what you meant. Comments are welcome before voting, though. Barhah Bowl is definitely going to be a top pick. Maybe a real contender will come along in the next two weeks and give it a run for its money. ~ 05:06, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

3. Bowlhah - just trying to mix it up. Yeah it know it sucks. No reason why you couldn't have both a survivor term and a zambah term? -- LEMON #1 00:41, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
4. Banana Bowl - Get yer mind outta the gutter. ~ 01:19, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
5. Zabarbarr - This was Misanthropy's suggestion before I decided to open nominations. Since he hasn't nominated it, I'm doing it for him. ~ 17:55, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
6. Zabar Bowl - Obvious Mis derivative. -MHSstaff 18:00, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
7. Corruption - From the word 'defile'. Also, it sounds kind of bad-ass or cool or whatever. Another one is Zambahrama, but it'd probably fit some other event better. Just thought I'd make a suggestion. -- †  talk ? f.u. 14:07, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

   hmmmm... should I add the word 'ball' or 'bowl' in it? just realized mine's the only suggestion without either of those so far.--Thanatologist 16:42, 10 December 2010 (UTC)~

   Ok just edit your above nahmination before December 15th if you want to change it up. I planned on submitting both of your entires in voting when it opens. ~ 18:19, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

   Nah, I'll keep them as is, I suppose. They sound better that way. --Thanatologist 22:19, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

8. Zambahrama - see above - ~ 16:48, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
9. Super Monkey Bowl = Super Bowl + Super Monkey Ball --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 21:15, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
10. Zarz Ball - In honour of the commercial campaign that has brought us the recent influx of players. - Pardus 04:13, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

    Not really. Population didn't increase at all. I've kept track of the population during Sears' promotional campaign. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 23:41, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

1. Arzhahm Bowl

1. Because I'm The (Undead) Miz, and I'm ARZHAHM! ~~ Chief Seagull ~~ ^talk 09:36, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
2. Neither incorrect zamgrh (Zabar and Zabarbarr end in R) nor falsely claiming to have barhah. --VVV ^RPMBG 20:18, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

2. Barhah Bowl

1. - I just love the way it sounds - ~ 18:07, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
2. - definitely my favorite --surfincow ^U 07:22, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
3. - This is the only one that will receive votes from someone other than the suggester.--_GANG Giles Sednik _CAPD 11:35, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
4. - The only logical choice--E Gadus 13:32, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

   i like the way it sounds too, but I think barhah bowl would fit better in a kill-everyone type of game. (Note: this is not directed specifically at E Gadus, but at the nahmination) --Thanatologist 04:51, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

   I agree. This sport doesn't have a particularly high level of barhah, so it shouldn't have a name that implies otherwise. --VVV ^RPMBG 07:06, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

   I know, I just suggested it because it was so obvious. ~~ Chief Seagull ~~ ^talk 12:19, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

3. Bowlhah

1. Voting for yourself is lame, I know. But seriously, as shit as it sounds it just rolls off the tongue so much too my liking I couldn't bear to vote for anything else. -- LEMON #1 03:24, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

4. Banana Bowl

1. Where have you put your fruit? In the BANANA BOWL!--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 20:49, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

5. Zabarbarr

1. Oh aye. 16:50, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

6. Zabar Bowl

1. - I'd vote for my own, but it sounds too serious. This fits better. --  †  talk ? f.u. 03:10, 17 December 2010 (UTC) || 12:13, 19 December 2010 (UTC) Edit: Maybe add an 'h' at the end? (to make it more zamgrh-correct as per Triple U's comment above) -- Thanatologist

7. Corruption

1. --VVV ^RPMBG 23:21, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

8. Zambahrama

1. Me like. Mainly because it's actually perfectly rattle-able. ZAMB-A-RAMAH!-- Spiderzed▋ 20:25, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

9. Super Monkey Bowl

1. I vouch for my own nomination. Now where did I put those bananas? --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 19:04, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

   Check the Banana Bowl? ~ 19:16, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
