That sounds nuts! (Destiny)

I much prefer everyone picking a platform and then referring to it using the person's name. Any numbering system confuses someone.

To me that is... insane. That means each platform gets a new name every time a player switches platforms, or each time you play with a different group, or when a player dies and a floater needs to take over the platform.

Just about every group I've played with that uses a number system uses the same one, and as long as somebody points it out before the start, it's much easier to call out numbers than names. You're only dealing with 1-4 for platforms. You can call out where Oryx is heading (Oryx is going to two"), players can call out their numbers to indicate they're on the platform ("two is on") they can let everybody know where someone has died ("dead on two") and the sherpa can call out that the floater needs to cover a platform ("floater to platform two").

How the naming works with an LFG group and players with unpronounceable names I can't imagine.
