    Is using such a theme considered "ban" worthy? I am unsure because they are obviously quite distinct, but at the same time a pain to read.
    This kind theme is total disaster and going to hurt your KD. Do you think YOU can remember 25 province names like it and give proper orders to correct one for attack/TM ops. Here is no way for organize Kd with names like this. Better use random names or if you want numbers use for example in begin or end name letters like A, B, C so you can proper manage your own kd.

    And so on
    Imagine after long day for you just before go out your KD get hit. You post in irc: "blah go attack him" and drop. After it he get 24 retals because every one prov name is Blah :P

    Agree with Elit. Actually our KD-theme (which was changed), was exactly meant to get such confusion.

    It was something like


    The monarch
    The steward
    No not that one
    The other one
    The big faery
    The small faery
    The orc we chained
    The one above the monarch
    The one under the monarch
    The big faery under the monarch

    etc.

    :D

    in most cases if you have to ask if it's okay it is probably not.

    Pretty much this. There isn't really a grey line here. And I personally don't even think twice about reporting kingdoms that try.

    There was a kd next to mine last age that had a "spam" theme and while it wasn't gibberish, they tried to "skirt the line" by using a confusing mix of words for their names.
    I got their provinces numbered within the first week of the age.
