So, just out of curiosity...Is that meant to mean Wolf Fire, Wolf Ire, both, or neither?

It represents a wolf that's howling at the sky for the last time because its about to get vaporized by a firey meteor you see in the background. Duh.

Wolfire (wull-fire) - noun - 1. Fires caused by sentient pieces of wool with pyromaniacal tendencies.
Examples: "Its a Wolfire!" "Bob was killed by a Wolfire." "That Wolfire destroyed my family, prepare to die."
2. A small independent game company that likes to laugh and then sadistically kill wolves and rabbits with martial arts, sticks, knives, and swords.

Fire can represent anger, so I still think it's a logical possibility.

Well if this wasn't a pointless thread...

It's a simple question and it's in the right forum. It probably could've been handled by a PM to Jeff or David, but it's not a personal question, and thus, just in case someone else happens to wonder that later, this thread negates the need for any future PMs.

I sincerely doubt anyone else was wondering.

A ship named the Sea Tutu would cause rumours, but it's just as normal a name for a ship as Wolfire is for a two-man software company.

Hmmm, let's see.

Microsoft: tiny little squishy things that, umm, combine to make computer programs. Well, duh.

Apple: The pomaceous fruit of plants of the genus Malus in the family Rosaceae, which of course suggests a well-designed user friendly personal computer.

Bungie: Developers of a series of increasingly technically detailed first person shooter (FPS) games for the Macintosh, the most famous being the Marathon series, following this with the acclaimed Myth tactical-combat series for both the Mac and Windows. Also a language spoken by a nation of people in Canada, mainly descended from the union of a European and an Amerindian. Also a misspelling of a common name for an elasticized rope. So, yah, the connection is clear unless you're some kinda dope or something.

So now we don't gotta PM Bill Gates, Steve Jobs or Alex Seropian and Jason Jones.

As much as bungee is correct, I beg to differ that it's an appropriate word.

Also, for some reason Dictionary and spell-check disagree on the spelling of the word, as spell-check thinks it just doesn't exist.

Not sure what you mean.

What I mean is that "Bungee" doesn't sound right. At least it did. Now it does. Now it doesn't… Ugh.

are you referring to the fact that Bungee's are another name for male underpant's, often passed as swimming trunks at the beach.

No.

I also strongly advise people not to go "bungee jumping" with your mortal enemy, it may involve being bounced around under a bridge via wedgie.

Then I strongely advise it.

Spellcheck should be shot.
