So as most of you know we recently announced our Official HaloCustoms YouTube channel a few days ago and as of today we've reached 100 subscriptions! :beer: Now that we've reached that small milestone and also verified the webiste with YouTube, thanks to Insane54, the channel is now eligible for a custom YouTube URL. Remember those custom URLs back in the old days of YouTube that you immediately got when you registered a YouTube account? Yeah, they changed that system a few years ago and therefore all channels must be eligible to register or even re-register a custom URL.

To get on with it, we've run into a very small problem. "The Man" over at Google made things complicated and doesn't want us to claim the URL "youtube.com/HaloCustoms" (even though nobody on the planet has ever registered it on YT or Google+) because the name is too similar to others (for example, if somebody is using 'HaloCrustoms').

Therefore I've decided to make this into a little poll for you guys to vote on what URL name we should use. Just note that the URL name must start with "HaloCustoms" in the beginning, followed by letters or numbers but no symbols. So far I've only come up with a few logical or short URL names for the HaloCustoms YouTube channel. It is up to you guys to see what you like better. I'll be closing the poll in a week from this post and will use the URL name that has the most votes. Get on voting!

Choices:
youtube.com/HaloCustomsOfficial
youtube.com/HaloCustomsChannel
youtube.com/HaloCustoms1
youtube.com/HaloCustomss
Other (please reply if you have another suggestion!)


Polls have been closed early! Thanks everyone for voting. "HaloCustomsOfficial" won with 12 votes by 80%!

While it hasn't been anywhere near a week, I'm deciding to close the poll early as the majority vote is likely in already and "HaloCustomsOfficial" was winning in a massive landslide. Thanks everybody for voting!

Channel URL is now official:
http://youtube.com/HaloCustomsOfficial

youtube.com/halocustomss just seems like you guys. Surprised I'm the only vote for that option lol
I considered it and "HaloCustoms1" because they were short, possibly easier to find through keywords. However, I did much prefer "HaloCustomsOfficial" due to the Twitch channel sharing the same name and it just made the most sense, in my opinion.
