I got it!
MrW
Quoted from solarvalue:OK, to pass the time until Friday's reveal, get your suggestions in for the official Willy Wonka abbreviation. Once everyone has had their say I will start a poll with all the suggestions.
Thanks for your contributions.
no poll needed. it will be WONKA. That is what we (distributors) are going to be using.
Quoted from whitey:Besides the game ? Anything else coming
Out Friday ?
You’re in Cali with the front row seat to all things gay. You tell us!
Quoted from f3honda4me:Wonka is crushing it

I'm guessing Robin or the mod/admin team for the forums. I'm sure since WONKA is clearly winning and it's what the distributors have chosen as well, that is what it will be.
Quoted from WyseGuy:^He owns this album. I’ve seen it.
I also have the jumpsuit! Gonna wear it when I play your Wonka. Gotta have the proper attire.

I'll send the community suggestions up the chain of command.
In other words, my cat will decide.

Please include this small token of appreciation. Totally not a bribe. >.>

I only started into Pinball 10 years ago but there are some abbreviations I still can't figure out when I see them mentioned in various threads. They should have a link on them so you click the abbreviation and it tells you what machine it is.

It' official gang, the cat has spoken.
Mee-ow! It is. Catgrats to all future Wonka owners.
I look forward to lots of pics of Wonka in the Cats and pinball thread.
