[Poll] Blocktopia - Final Name Choices

I agree, Escape Restart sounds much more like a title of a novel or a video game itself, rather than a community. I like World 8 because we're expanding from just the realm of Minecraft to be more diverse and, in a sense, global. The term 'world' has a lot of strong, positive connotations to it. The words 'escape' and 'restart' both have negative connotations, however, with escape being to flee from something, and restart to rebuild after tragedy. It's true we're restarting, but I think the name just sounds too negative.
But hey man, just my opinion.
But hey man, just my opinion.
I wanna play too...
So I decided to mess around with logos and stuck with this font, which I personally like, and messed around with simple colors and placements. They could use some work, of course, but these are just ideas if anyone else gets inspiration from them.
Personally, I like the logo that says "EscapeRestart" and has the black background on it. BUT.. one problem is that the circle is not in the center for any of the "EscapeRestart" logos --where I've centered the "ER" bit within the circle. The "Restart" side has like 1.5" more than the "Escape" side. It bothers me.
EDIT: I would have done World8, but honestly, the word "World" looks weird to me.

Changing my vote to World Eight. It's grown on me. 
Speaking of which, do you think that it would maybe be a good idea to make a new poll? I've noticed that there were several people saying they wanted to change their vote and new ideas and opinions on some of the names have been brought up. Perhaps some people have actually changed their minds but can't be bothered to post or just went "meh, can't change my vote" and went on.
I guess my reasoning would be that we want to be absolutely sure that the right name gets chosen. We obviously don't have to rush this so I think a new poll would be a good idea. We could even just make a poll with the top two names at the moment or whatever and run this like a tournament-style thing with the brackets and all that shiz and this is like the first round okay analogy over lel.
Anyways, if this would be too much trouble or not worth it then disregard this. Just a thought I had.

rawrmynameisrex I like the 4th logo in the 3rd group as well. Perhaps somewhere (Like the bottom text) say "gaming" or "gaming community". In my humble opinion, it would add some more depth to the name.
Thoughts?

omg could you make a split text animation of this?I wanna play too...

I found an even better logo :)
It'll be even more accurate once the TNT server comes back ;D
"Hey wanna play something?"
"Nah, I'm playing with my friends from ER" / "Nah, I'll be playing at (the) ER" / "Sure"

Escape Restart sounds like a community for rage quitters

I wish one of the choices could be a cool made up word butt oh well votedd
world 8 reminds me of that video game like minecraft.. i forget the name of it but it was smoother looking
pixel portals reminds me of minecraft and portal 2
press to play reminds me of old games, are we gonna be playing pacman?
escape restart just reminds me of the esc key and restarting a level or a device..
so yeah

yeah, it's perfectly fine that you don't like the name, just throwing up potential logos if it happens to follow through is all
edit: here's variation 2 i guess
iggles I humbly suggested either stretching out the under curve so it doesn't look skewed when attaching to the leg of the R or having a gap.keepin it metro and simplistic, take 1
please offer critique and any edits that want to be seen
looks sexy tho.
yeah...
I can't even come up with good character names, so I'm not sure this is something I can vote on.
but for whatever reason, I just can't help thinking Super Mario when I see the first name option.
