When I was typing in vizzed into my url bar, it just popped into my head that the name vizzed is a very odd name for a website and that maybe there is a reason for it.
So I was wondering if anyone out there knew the reason vizzed is called vizzed or have a thought, please reply! I know I can just ask the staff but I want to know every one's thoughts!

I'm not sure why it's called Vizzed but the name of the website does sound really cool.

Interesting question. The only person I can think of who would definitely know is...

Davideo7 : What's the reason behind the name?

I'm curious myself.

I probably wrongly assume David made up a cool a word as he could and slapped it on the title, but who knows. *adds to favorites till David replies*

Well I came up with the word "viz" by messing around with my name "david".  Tried to come up with something cool and ended up with "vid" but didn't like that so I replaced the d with a z and got "viz".  So I had my "Viz Video Games' website up for quite a while and than I realized that "viz" was already a company and I didn't want to use a word that was already taken so than I added the zed at the end and got "vizzed".  It's a unique word that I made up and sounds very relevant to gaming, plus it looks cool lol.  You can really attach "Vizzed" to anything and make it sound like a product; example: Vizzed Soda, Vizzed Flash Bash, Vizzed Ville, etc.

Davideo7 :

So I was sort of right then? xD

That's a nice way of making a creative new name though. I honestly am not good with making up words.

legacyme3 : I'm actually really good at coming up with my own words, some of my unfinished games and books are filled with completely original names lol.

master_yang : Thanks

JigSaw : Well Vizzzzed sounds better than Viz-Zed when the word Vizzed is attached to stuff; example:
Vizzed Ville sounds better than Viz-Zed Ville
Vizzed Soda sounds better than Viz-Zed Soda

'The result of playing to many video games'

Davideo7 : Something like this?

"I played Mario Kart in the RGR for four hours, and now I'm feeling Vizzed." Got the ol' Vizzed Syndrome?

Honestly, I had always just assumed you picked Vizzed out of the blue. It's such a random word, and I couldn't think of any games or tv shows or movies you may be referencing.

Well, it's an interesting story, and a nice answer to the question that has been at the back of my head for some time.
