Name Rater Apprentices

DraconicWings:
I'm uncertain as to whether or not this is a good idea, considering how many bad nicknames there are, but if anyone can prove they're educated and capable enough to leave a decent brief critique, I don't see why one person should have all the nicknames dumped onto him.

So I was thinking that more people should be added to the team. That way, names would be rated faster, thereby allowing more people to submit their Nicknames and heave them rated, and there would be less work for everyone.

The 'new hires' would either send reviews for specific names to the Name Rater, where he could approve/dismiss them and post the rating as his own, or they would just do it themselves.

There would have to be certain criteria that would need to be addressed of course:

Can they differentiate between a good name and a bad one (obviously)?
In the case of a decent name, can they write a good, brief review of it?
And in the case of a bad name, can they explain what is wrong with it.
And in the case of especially bad names, can they demonstrate the appropriate amount of Name Rater cruelty?

These traits would have to be evaluated, but I think that this might be a good idea. Thoughts?

I'd love to rate nicknames! I'm the name master! The only reason my insults aren't "name rater cruelty" in my nickname rating thread is because of the forum rules (don't want to break the rules by being nasty! ;))

Shaymin:
we had a competition for this years back and boy it ended badly

Petzbreeder:
I'm hopeless at coming up with nicknames. I once gave a Bidoof the nickname Bakana Baka, which means stupid idiot in Japanese.
See for yourself ばかなばか.

The nickname works though, Bidoof does look a little stupid.

The name master:
Be honest! Who thinks I'd make a good name rater?
