Well, I changed the journal name. I like this name much better than the previous "ghostfungus."

Why Quinqueg? Suffice it to say that I've become obsessed with the number five. Not on the level of Gehn, but close. And in a stroke of pure genius or weirdness, I considered that the Latin prefix for five is quinque and also remembered the Moby Dick character Queequeg.

Yeah, it's odd, but I like it. And I really disliked ghostfungus - it didn't roll off the tongue as well.

1. A MacGuffin is a basic plot device - an object used to move the plot forward but has no other purpose. I kinda dislike MacGuffins, though I do understand their usefulness. And MacGuffin happens to be a silly word, so I stuck it up there as the title.

2. The rename token service is kinda hidden for some reason. It's not a paid account feature, but it does cost money, presumably because of some server wrangling involved. If you want to rename your journal, you'll need to buy a rename token for $15. All the pertinent information can be found here
