Well I can confirm that its not "Gay White Supremacy" especially since the whole team does not consist of white guys.

Good guess retard. Like, what part of "the whole team does not consist of white guys" did you not understand? This is why you'll always be the fluffer of the Colorado Crew. Very Happy

Any other hints?

Dude, did you not see the other gay white single guesses?  It is obviously not that.  I was doing this thing.  This thing, trying to be funny.  It must have back fired.

In addition to those already mentioned these have been guesses:

Gays Wins Softly
Girls With Shlongs
Geeks With Style
Gay White Supremacist
God We're Shit
Go Whine, Shitter
Go...What?...SUBWAY!!!!!

A proper punishment has never been decided for anyone who reveals the true extended name of GWS.  I'd imagine it would involve flogging and force feeding of massive amounts of Hardees and cottage cheese.  To learn the forbidden secret, you must be a member of the team and top 8 at a major event like Waterbury, SCG, Worlds, Origins, or one of the bigger GenCon events like Prelims or $500.  As a result, there are 5 of us who know the true meaning that is "GWS"...besides our parents who thought we were retarded when we created the name 6 or so years ago.

@ Klep-wow.  That is a good one Smile

And Endress does carry around a man-purse.  Yes, he does look like a douche.  Yes, we give him hell for it every time we see him.  I encourage everybody to do the same.  Probably the reason so many of the guesses have "Gay" in them.

I have a hard time believing that a Vintage team name was concieved in 1999.  That was in the middle era of BD before there were any vintage teams.

Who is the founder of GWS and what is your roster and how do you recruit members?

My two guesses were that "W" stood for Workshop Or, since you guys are fond of mocking me (as Endress gencon report showed), that "S" stood for Smmenen or steve - perhaps mocking some comment I made one time.

So, you could have lots of teammates but only a few know what GWS means?  That's not fair.

I've been a member of the team for a year now, and I still don't know what it means....I guess I'll need to actually stop scrubbing out and T8 one of these next SCG's!  Who cares about power when you can learn what the name stands for?  Smile

My guess would be either "God's Work Shop" (being formed in 99 and being an extended team would eliminate a Mishra's Workshop reference) or "Go Wreck Shit".  Probably bad choices, but the mystery of the name makes it fun.  Next time there's a big gathering, I should get Endress drunk and make him spill it.

I think it means something on the lines of "going with style"  or Going to Win Something, or maybe a religious approach like God Will Save...

As posted in the top 8 report of Matt Morrison's rise to 2nd vs vroman, i was quoted saying  I'm on the team, and I don't even know what the name is. 

However, I can release this... Gay White Supremecist does has something to do with the team, but it's not the name of the team itself.

My submissions have been...

God We're Shit
God We Suck
Gotta Win Sometimes
God What Smells
Girls With Shlongs
Guys Without Shlongs
Gay White & Single
Gooey White Seamen
Gooey White Smmnenan
Geeky White Sluts
Guys Without Scrodums
Glamourus Witty Schoolgirls
Guys Who Swallow
Girls Who Swallow
Guys Who Suck
God Worshiping Servants
God Wants Satisfaction
God Wants Sucky Sucky
(Any G Word) Wants Sucky Sucky
Guys Worshiping Satin
Guys Want Sparticus
Guys Watching Sparticus
Guys Watching Sports
Guys Winning Struggles


One of my personal favorites for the meaning to teammate Rhyno

Golf road, What?!   Shit!!

There are my guesses so far... but, there are tons more... And no, I still don't know the true meaning... and when I do, none of you will know anyway...

The roster is quite big.  Its something like:
**The Original Gangstas***
Endress - lost.in.admiration
Phil - moxlotus
Brian Fisher - IntoTheSilence
Eric Becker - kobefan (probably an original?)
***The Recruits***
Matt Morrison - dogleg969
Manuel Fernandez - Hspecter
Aaron Jarvis - ? (I don't know if he posts on here)
Ryan Mayrand - Nether__Void
John Donovan - Vincent
Ryan Spindler -  Rhyno
Gregg Seaverson - moxblingbling
Eddie Esparza - (doesn't post on TMD)

I'm sure I'm forgetting at least one person.  At least these are the people that post frequently on our site.

I think I have a legimite guess this time:

Got to Win Shit (or stuff or something even)

That goes well with the policy about having to make T8 before you find out the name. You know, you got to win something before you can find out the team name.  Clearly, I am correct. TfP.  Razz

I always thought it meant Gay WorkShop.  After all, didn't they form around the time when Gay Fish was popular and they were proponents for Workshop at the time.

Well, if the name is from 1999 it has nothing to do with Magic most likely, so my guess would be Gangstas With Style.

Gangstas With Style is a pretty good guess.  I'm a personal  fan of Girls With Schlongs, if that's not it, you guys should change it!

I always thought it was something to mock Steve Menendian, too.  That whole, "We made it up in 1999" thing could just be some smokescreen, and I wouldn't be surprised if they changed it at somepoint. 

Whatever you need to do to encourage camaraderie between team mates, I guess.  GWS has their little secret name thing, and some of them are good, so if that works more power to ya. 

I would say with 99% certainty that no one will ever guess.  It's the veritable "Rumplestilskin" of Magic.  If it was made up in 1999, then these guys were totally high school, and it's probably pretty dumb but has a whimsical story attached.  I know back in 1999 my team was "The Card Flopping Pimps" but we went our seperate ways when we hit college, it's not like we were good anyway.
