What do we call ourselves?

Back before the topic culling of 2015, there was a topic about what to call the devoted readers of Dale's books.
There were many ideas offered, but none of them ever sounded quite right, so it never took off.
After writing the poll about Topics vs Posts yesterday, I noted the tongue-in-cheek nod to "The POWER", and felt we might have another go at naming this group.
After all, who wouldn't want to be a follower of the ONE, TRUE POWER?

So going along the lines of a religious sect, we should come up with something interesting like "Devotees", or "Followers", or "Disciples", or something... Any ideas along those lines? We could even try to make the overall sentence into an acronym, which would work really well, as we'd be the only ones that understood! Hence, no real blasphemy!

Disciples Of Power, Enigmas,&Science. No, that spells D.O.P.E. S . Same with Devotees. Followers Of Power, F.O.P.S ? Not too good. Scions Of Power, S.O.P s, I've been called worse. Ummm, Powerites, Power heads ? I don't know, ( could go back to using the Fast Action Response Team, so like POWERful F.A.R.T. s, ummm, maybe not.)
All kidding aside, I don't have a good idea. Anyone else?
Wait... How about...Society Underwriting Power Enhanced Reading... S.U.P.E.R.s Kind of makes sense.

Let's use Mr. Power's nickname - Dale. We could be Dale' Readers. D.R. for short.
Then I could be D.R. Ron - my mother would be so proud...
Dr. Argy, Dr David, Dr Marcia....

How about "Power Readers"? Or is that not enough tongue-in-cheek?
