I'm disappointed just because I think we were all eager to get to work 
and we had some names (steampunk, neon, etc) that I think we generally 
liked and started mocking up. That neither of them made it through the 
process is disappointing since I at least had some investment in them.

However, I don't think this is anything that couldn't be remedied by 
having the name available earlier.
