SOS - HELP MY BOWLING COMPANY!!!!!!!
« on: September 12, 2005, 01:15:42 PM »
Hey guys, i got this assignment for my Graphics Class where i have to make my own fake company and market it, etc.  I had to choose what my company would make, so it only seemed right to go with bowling balls.  I had to choose a name for the company, and settled with Alien: Dare to Defy.  I know it's not that great, and it's a rip off of the elite alien, but i don't care, it's the best i can come up with............ So what im asking for is that you, the bowlers, help give me some names that i can give to my balls and what condition they be used on, once again i know it's quite corny, but hey, better bowling than anything else   Space themes would be cool seeing in how the company is Alien If you take this seriously it WILL BE TURNED INTO A WEB SITE AND YOU CAN SEE SOME OF YOUR IDEAS COME TO LIFE - once again thanks

Today in school i started work on the "big bang", it's lookin totally sweet!  It's gonna be the largest hooking ruff buff pearl known to man! The logo on the ball resembles the big time logo, go figure! The Ball will be the same basic colors of the storm vertigo, but with more vibrant pin and graphics coloring, a neon like yellow.  I'm thinking of calling the cover: anti matter coverstock, just thought it sounded pretty cool

that sounds pretty cool, got a really sweet color idea for it! Kind of the color of the ebonite killer instinct pearl, but less red in it, the pin and graphics would be a blood red,......hard to explain, but what i got in my mind is totally crazy

the alien logo on the ball will be the letter A with an atomic doodling behind it

ttt - gotta escape the political posts swarming the site!

Update: Two balls complete: DisruptR and the Big Bang. The Big Bang is a high hp ball for the oiliest of lanes with anti matter coverstock, and the DisruptR is a go long snap late ball for medium lanes (high dif core with a tame coverstock) .......still trying to come up with a coverstock name, hey i got time!

I think that you should name the clear spare ball Area 51 (I know people have already said the name...but hear me out):

...Noone has known what was truly inside Area 51...until now! Introducing the new Area 51 spare ball. With it's clear plastic Photon coverstock, it'll surely make those corner pins disappear! And with it's Unbeatable Forward Output weightblock, the ball will be at an intergalactic level on burnt heads. So find out what the government's really been trying to keep you from...a spare game that's outta this world!

So, do I get the job?!?

Big Willy Style

PS...make sure on one of them, you put that it's the first USBC appreoved ball with Photon coverstock, and see if they put it on the ban list! HAHAHA...now THAT would be classic!!!

BigWilly,

Looks like he is using my idea for the logo, he should use you idea for the spare ball. Brilliant.

Thanks, like someone else said...I kinda got a knack at this crap...well, that and I have no life! So plenty of time to sit and think!

PS...actually only took like 5 minutes to come up with it...
