What should we name the Wave for May Day?
Occupy Anonymous Sat 5 Apr 2014 2:52PMPublicSeen by 31The heart of Wave tech is it's hashtag.
Like #OccupyWallSt birthed the #Occupy tactic, call to action & community the Wave Of Action bears similar fruit
The World Wide Wave of Transformation introduced a new dynamic tactic that mixes grassroots campaign mobilization with a little flavor taken from the old world and it's love of large scale, regular community celebrations with the #WaveOfAction Day Of Action on April 4th.
The Wave of Action which hit on April 4th brought together new & old community members was 3 months in the making.
In NYC it was suggested in the spontaneous assembly facilitated by Echo, Harrison & several others at 60 Wall St on 4.4.14 that we attempt a SHORTER wave cycle for the May Day celebrations.
To make this work we need a May Day Wave Hash Tag that can function in the same way.
Are there any suggestions for a name?
Please suggest a SINGLE #hashtag that can be broken down well.
An effective one will need no explanation.

The boring & obvious one i can't shake but not sure i like is:
#MDayWave #MDW
The only twist in there is that the M can be both:
Movement & May Day.

#MayDayWave
Naming the May Day Wave Just That #MayDayWave

We agreed we should have discussed consensus threshold, but aside from Mary/Luca's thumb down the reaction looks mostly good.
Keeping it simple is a proven tactic.
Let's use the name #MayDayWave as the global coordination hashtag for the events culminating on May First.
#MayDayWave -> #MDayWave -> #MDV

I would prefer something different but I am fine with choice.
