Have you seen or know of any demo scene releases with pretty long names?
take care,
Clyde.
When do you start to say that a title is long?
And, it looks like a silly question :D (sorry)

Maybe silly, but I just needed to exercise my fingers.
I know of a few games with long titles, everyone should remember "Escape From The Planet Of The Killer Robots" and "A Rock Star Ate My Hamster"
Don't know of any demo scene releases, thought it might be a bit of fun for all to read about any, maybe you've made one! Or come to think about it long group names.
Groups i remember to have long names...
TRSI == Tristar and Red Sector Incorporated
RAF == Royal Amiga Force
DOC == Doctor Manuse Orgasm Crackings
MAD == MAD Mutual Assured Destruction
SHA == Swedish Hackers Association
ACU == Australian Crackers United
A Significant Deformation Near the Cranium / Kewlers, can't forget that :)
If it comes to small intros, often they are named Tunnel, Fire, Sierp, Plasma, etc, what I totally dislike. Tiny demo is a small piece of art, so should also have nice unique title.
Most of IND (http://ind.untergrund.net/) intros have unique naming style, where the main name is a single word being an acronym of some long title (often in Polish), for example:
SETKA (http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=16267) - Silnie Erotyczne Takty Koprocesora Arytmetycznego (Intensely Erotic Tacts Of Arithmetic Coprocessor)
TEMPO (http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=24372) - Trans Erogennych Mikrostruktur Podczas Orgazmu (Trance Of Erogenous Microstructures During Orgasm)
PHOBIA (http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=30159) - Piekielna Hybryda Obcej Biologii Impulsem Apokalipsy (Infernal Hybrid Of Alien Biology Is Apocalypse's Impulse)
and many others.
Similarly with group name - IND - Introkreatywne Niskopoziomowe Doznania - means something like Introcreative Low-Level Sensations (Feelings, Experiences).
Pirx: yeah, I always have a laugh visiting the IND site :) Great stuff.
Mother, mother my eyes hurt / haujobb (and similar titles) are some others!
@Pirx:
Word!
@topic:
Some long titles really sometimes fit to a certain project. I love it.
First intro with a very long name I remember is:
Herr und Frau Meyer aus Hannover machen Urlaub in Salzburg (http://bitworld.bitfellas.org/demo.php?id=10789) by TRSI
This is german and means something like:
"Mr. and Mrs. Meyer from Hannover are on holidays in Salzburg"
