Quote from: Light DragonI don't quite get why Gorgefly would be the top CE level?

Gorgeflies are the giant fly-winged, putrefying insect-angel monstrosities that dire maggots turn into.  You're probably thinking of measily little goreflies, the symbionts of sand-rays.

Ah, that is indeed what I was thinking.

I'm not much for the actor idea (sorry). Seems a bit opaque and unrelated to the site.
(the last argument might fall a bit short considering our current harlot titles :p )

I don't necessarily think that the actor idea fits well with the site.  Now, fantasy movie titles (or book titles) could be a different matter.

Then I suppose the DnD movie would be the lowest rank.

Nah - there are certainly many worse. Actually, it could be interesting to go against the usual pattern and instead make that the highest rank and work our way down through the really, truly *bad* ones until we get down to "Krull" for a new user's first post. . .

We could also make the worst movies the highest ranks.

I support the movies idea, but only if we include some of the better/worse Kung-Fu movies as well.

I cannot accurately express in words the amount of negative shits that the Krull movie gives

I don't think the movies idea would work because people would spend all their time complaining if their favorite movie was a lower rank or some movie they love to hate was a higher rank or blah blah blah other things I don't feel like dealing with. :D

Military ranks with "of Pants" or "of Trousers" following them.

Bonus points if they're somewhat obscure and/or archaic ranks such as Field-Cornet or Colour Sergeant.

Field-Marshall of Jean Shorts.

How about sea life.  The lowest rank could be barnacle.  The highest could be "Zaratan," which is the name of that island-that's-actually-a-turtle from the arabian nights.  That's more turtle than any other proposal posted so far, and I say this confidently despite not having read this thread.

Pro:
- everyone likes sea life
- features turtles (!)
- features big turtles (!!!)
- barnacles are inherently funny

Con:
- somebody might hate the ocean, I don't know
- ???

In conclusion, sea life.

If we go with sea life Cthulhu MUST be the final rank.
