In honor of the new format we've created: Commander 2.0 (http://imtgapp.com/forum/index.php?topic=39308.0), and for future development solicitation, I'll be giving away a cadre of Magic the Gathering cards, headlined by a beautiful, foil, artist signed with silver sharpie {Venser, the Sojourner} (Duel Deck Series, EN) and some other goodies. This contest is simple.
●An official name for Commander 2.0 (http://imtgapp.com/forum/index.php?topic=39308.0)
Contest rules
•Enter as many times as you'd like.
•Winner is picked at my disgression.
•Be detailed about your choice of name.
Out of curiosity, did you get it signed at GP Boston?

A friend of mine went and had it signed for me at GP Boston. I would have loved to go, I had a bunch of other foils for him to sign. He's the big prize for this contest, and probably other {U}{W} cards as a lil theme gift pack.
Cool. Wish I had remembered to bring mine to get it signed...
Anyway, back on topic. Ignore me! :P
Why not just call it SCF. Or Sensible Commander Format
My guess would be a synonym for Commander, like Warlords, Generals (could be confusing), Mastermind, Cheiftain, Captain, or Officer
Don't ask why, but the word Skirmish is stuck in my head. I think that sounds pretty nice.

I was considering that, too. Something along the lines of Commander: Skirmish. It's a variant of a well-known format, so having the original name in there can help people identify it. The format seems more fitting to combat styles of gameplay, making it feel like it'd be more of a Front Line conflict during a war, rather than a Grand, decisive battle that traditional EDH can sometimes feel like... So, Skirmish.

Exactly.
I vote for:
Decisively Underwhelming Dudes Entering Combat On Regular Events. We could call it DUDECORE for short?
I was thinking along the lines of, "Commander: Contested." Love your ideas for commander 2.0 as I was brushing up on it for awhile. Some great changes! Keep up the good work!
Community commander.
New Age commander.
Chancellor.
Bishop.
Those are some ideas 😊
-commamder:wizard duels
-commander war tactics
-legendary smack down!!!!!
Are just a couple I thought of

I like this too.
Brommander 2014.
Well since we have French commander why not Spanish commander or American commander
How about Commander: Melee. Because Super Smash melee was the better, more competitive sequel to Super Smash. :P
I kind of think it gives the wrong impression, like it's somehow more about combat then any other eternal format. I dunno.
Commander Evolution
Modified Masters
Modified Modern
Arena Combat

Commander: Brawl? :-)
Dragon Arena
Or how about:
Every Reason Of Combat Endeavors Does Undeniable Damage.
Oh, it spells dudecore backwards, another happy accident...
command central because its fitting of the format for a couple reasons it was made by us players (mainly you dudecore) but it has a ban list that is agreed apon by players so its fitting that it has a name that sounds like players made it
dudecoremander because you came up with the idea
Refocusing here. We're gonna run with the "Commander: _________" idea methinks. It's clean and I like the potential parallels between the format. It's gotta be something good, that kinda shows off some of the changes while still being the Commander everyone knows

I like the basic commander: revised, nice clean an to the point.

Yay for synonyms.
EldEST dragon highlander
Commander: {Reshape}d
Commander: Player's Choice
Commander: A New Spin
Commander: Done Right
What about
Commander: 2.0?
commander: 1.5
Commander: Improved
Commander: simplified
Commander: like it was meant to be played
Commander: TCF (the casual format)
Commander: Fo Rizzle
Commander: nephilims
Commander: JD (Johnny's dream)
Commander: SB (Spike's bane)
Commander: TP (Timmy's playground)
Commander: the commanded
Commander: commanding

Leaning toward Commander: Revised. What's everyone else think? Any favorites so far?
Commander: Agoge (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agoge)
History fan boy. Lol
I haven't heard any objections to the name of the new Commander format. There is still time to sway my opinion folks. It is after all, a group effort.

Commander Re-Written
