The MB scripting language needs a name

[Ikaguia]

Monty!

Monty. Good choice to refer to at least M&B (the first game using it even if it's used for other games in future), and clever pun also reminiscent of Python. If a name is only related to M&B, it defines the code well enough (IMO the best of them being MABL), but if it's Python-related it has to either be presumably overly long and boring to be specific, or also refer to M&B (which "Monty" manages to do in more style).

Another that aspect to highlight, which has been addressed with the likes of This Is Not Python, is that you don't need to know Python in order to mod. In fact, knowing the said programming language wouldn't make it much easier for you to use the module system.

To be fair, modders sometimes add or modify regular Python scripts in the module system files for advanced coding.

are we sirously voting about this?

Why not something that describes its origin more, like TaleWords Scripting Language, or TWSL.

 

[SheriffTheRevenger]

MBScript is the second best candidate MBScript=9 MONTY=14

M&B = Mount and Blade
Mount ~= Monty

 

[Lumos]

Perhaps we should replace "Monty" with "Mounty".

Then why monty when it just means mount?

 

[Duh]

Im guessing it has something to do with python.

 

[Lumos]

Perhaps putting the two words together will create something of interest.

Get your votes in! It's a close one.

 

[Lumos]

Hrmph.

I do like how every single option has at least one vote though.

 

[SonKidd]

I like how it's almost a bell curve lol

 

[Dusk Voyager]

The voting's over.

Well, it's not Python, so let's call it 'Monty'.

Winner winner, chicken dinner.

 

[SheriffTheRevenger]

I prefer MbScript(which is second best candidate)but when monty won...

LONG LIVE TO MONTY!!!
