To be honest, I don't care for any of the names listed, but the least objectionable to me is Muleigans.

If it was Mule-natics instead of Mule-unatics I would have been all for that. Muleigans it is for me.

I have great respect for your work here, Kristi. We cannot thank you enough!
My favorite is not on your shortlist. And I don't think it's reasonable to submit a vote when there's no positive emotion for any of the candidates. So no vote from me. I hope for your understanding.

Should have known the most militaristic and humorless name would lead. Knife people take themselves very, very seriously.

Happy someone else said it. I don't want to appear too hippy about things.
I did not vote as I am not really keen on the list. I am supportive of leaving it as is and staying with, Mule Team.

Yep. I sure won't be calling myself part of an "army". It seems a bit like stolen valor since I never served.

I voted for "Mule Team Army", as the best of what was offered in the list. Just "Mule Team" would be fine w/me.
BTW there's other definitions of "army": https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/army
that are not military.

Ditto. Importing army is the very definition of "vainglorious." I don't see Mule purchasers as an army that defends or attacks. I think Mule purchasers are more like a research team.

I really like Muleists. It's simple, easy to say and captures the spirit.
"-ist; a suffix of nouns, that denote a person who practices or is concerned with something, or holds certain principles, doctrines, etc."
I think this encompasses a lot of the sentiment here - some are steel junkies, some are knife nerds, some are devout collectors, but we are all Muleists.

I honestly would just prefer something generic like "Mule Team enthusiasts" -- not everything needs to be marketable or catchy.

Hey! You can change your vote! I just changed my vote to second-place Muleigans, since my pick (Muletonians) was going nowhere.

I voted M.T.A because I'm militaristic, humorless and as a self identified "knife person" I take myself very, very seriously.

I recommend a runoff poll between the top two vote-getters.

Re: Knife Knuts, Steel Junkies, and Mule... POLL! Please VOTE!
Runoff is probably a better idea than the compromise: "Muleigan Army."
37 votes currently? Pretty small for either a clan (the Muleigans) or an army (the Mule Legion Squad Brigade Regiment Team Army). Given the current size, I think we're more like a sewing circle.
It's a joke! I'm joking! Don't shoot!
