Seeing how people are claiming the characters as their "waifus", people getting buttmad over a fanart of Hanako commiting suicide, folks gettin' mad over bad reviews on Katawa Shoujo, I think it is safe to say that it's too late for that.Wasting Time wrote:Hey, how about we don't embarrass ourselves?

Re: Fan community nickname?
There will be "embarrassing" extremes like that among fans of any [VN/anime/TV show/sports team/religion/political party/etc.]. A nickname for said community (Trekkies et al) is something that can be used with pride by its members or, at times, pejoratively by anyone else. We just don't need to actively fuel the latter...
Would you come with me if I ran off to be a pirate?

While we are here discussing, Hanako is somewhere hopping from dark to darker tiles. Alone.

ROFL, speak for yourself dude.
Admittedly, not even my wife knows I play Katawa Shoujo, although she does know I'm an Anime fan. She tolerates it though as she's a librarian and I'm an essential Manga/Anime resource for her when it's purchasing time each year for the library.
I also tolerate her classic movie fetish (seriously, who actually watches obscure pre-code movies from the 1920's and 30's? My wife. ) So we're even I guess.
EDIT:
Forgot to answer the OP question.
I don't really want a community name, but if we MUST have one, the "Katawans" wins my vote.

Re: Fan community nickname?
I'd throw my vote at Katawans as well.
Cripple Fuckers is a close second. I'm joking.

Re: Fan community nickname?
The major problem I see with "Katawans" is that it's too easy to corrupt to something like "Katards." Anyone who does this will probably earn the undying wrath of /b/tards everywhere for stealing their nickname, but it'll still happen.

Re: Fan community nickname?
Why do we need a community name? It would only be used to mock us...
OR make us seam like complete idiots, like
"KSfags, lets show these haters what katawa shoujo is about!!111!!!!1!!!one!!!"
Much like bronies.

The only difference between theory and reality is that in theory there is no difference, but in reality there is.

Rainbow Wizards wins hands down.
Music for a game that I am sort of working on:
Moustache Riders - Ignition
This seems to be sort of common in sigs here so...
Rin = Kenji > Hanako > Emi > Lilly > Shizune
