Honestly, I don't think it will change anything if we had one or not.
Mascots are meant to represent teams, and teams usually go against each other in a competition. I don't see minetown as a team against other servers. We are a community. Yeah, we could say that we are 'competing' against like LC or something, but were not. Sawine is not hosting this server to be better then other servers. Yeah, it's good to be better, but not to focus on being better. The Minetown server, is for you. You guys get to play it.
So I am opposed to the whole idea of a mascot.
But if we did end up having one, it has to be a fox.. Everyone seems to have a fetish for foxes around here.. *Cough, yield, Cough, zio..*
