while i think the idea for having the user ranks changed to the actual tamagotchi names is great, i also think some people (well at least i know i don't) might not know all the tamagotchi names - meaning no one might know that "this one is higher than that one"
maybe if they could be combined somehow - ie: keeping the ranks we have now (tamanewbie, tamamember) and to compliment each rank, a teeny little picture of the tama associated with it.
i don't even know if this is possible... just an idea.
