    Oh yeah definately, the logo was a pile of hog , but general reaction to the mascots has been okay. This thread looks like an example of the first comment influencing the rest of them (EoEO syndrome)

    I'm pretty meh about the mascots though, they look pretty interesting but the whole cyclops thing they have going on let the team down


    there was a picture here

    OMG! What were they thinking? Those eyes look haunted...
    When we dance, it looks just like Fire.

    When we sing, it sounds the same tone.

    They're like weird martians. I don't hate them. They're stupid, but mascots tend to be like that.

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.
    Trying to catch me riding dirty.

    Well, I haven't given out an opinion myself, now have I? Well, I don't really see anything terrible about the mascots, but I can see how they can be viewed as one eyed monsters. xD The names are a little weird, but at least they have some meanings behind them. I would think the mascots are a little improvement over the logo, I think. The logo is just terrible looking, meanwhile the mascots aren't. This video kinda explains how they were "created" though: YouTube - Illuminati--London 2012 Olympic Mascots -Rainbows, OneEyed...NWO Symbols

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    the logo looks like it's come straight from the 1980s, and the mascots look like they've come straight from the 2980s. go figure.
    if finding love is just a dance, proximity and chance, you will excuse me if i skip the masquerade

    Interesting. Does your girlfriend know about this?
    I... don't know. I can't remember if we've talked about them. I don't think so. Wait, why!? I don't get it.
    Bow before the mighty Javoo!
