Personally, if we really must have a name, I'd go for Towers Street Imagineering.
If that's the case then my vote also goes to this.

May I remind you all that the suggestion was actually "Screamworks" which was suggested by Al in this topic, and is there to see. 
That's what my vote goes towards.
EDIT-
Also, to be clear, we cannot have "Towers Street Imagineering" as we have to be certain that we are not linked with Towers Street. This was asked by the team when we thought of that name, and is ALSO in this topic.
Please read everything thoroughly please.

BigAl said:Woo! 3 votes for 'Screamworks'!
And 5 votes for sitdown. But is that for the B&M, Intamin, mine train, LSM launch, X-Car, spinners or motor bike coaster?![]()

Not the LSM launch coaster, as that would be in launch.
Probably not do a looping coaster- to keep it simple at the start- so that would leave us with:
B&M Hyper
Intamin (Mega-Lite or Hyper)
Gertslauer/Maurer Sohne spinning coaster
Gerstlauer Bobsled
Vekoma Mine Train
Classic/Modern Steel Looping (but without making it loop
The rest we should leave alone for the start, to keep things simple.
Well, with 3 votes for it, we shall be called "Screamworks". Unless it already exists!

An Intamin megalite, or perhaps we could try a compact Mack-style mega coaster (using the Intamin track and blue coloured track)?
Although I do love the Intamin megalite. Maybe we could create our own variation of the megalite so that it looks similar but is still unique. Maybe even take the original off-the-shelf design and go over it before modifying the areas of the ride that we feel are the least effective and could be improved?
Edit: The only thing that I can find that has Screamworks in its name and is related with theme parks is the 'Manical Mechanical Screamworks' Fright zone that Cedar Point makes for Halloween. That's it.

The Mack coaster would have to have a lift-hill, if it were to be made, to be classified as a sit-down- and probably wouldn't be inverting.
The Mega-Lite coasters are not much so "off the shelf" but they have a few generic features. For example, the first stage of the coaster usually goes- lift, drop, curve, hill- like shown here.
However, in the NL coaster I've been making, I changed this slightly- whilst keeping it realistic:
Anyway, I see that inverted coaster has tied, and that would- basically- have to be inverting. I'm currently making one of those as well!

I always assumed that the megalite was simply an off-the-shelf coaster from Intamin as custom models are classed as mega or hyper, etc...
Here are the four megalites...
Fly Over Mediterranean:
Kawasemi:
Mega-Lite:
Piraten:
And each one is exactly the same. Best off-the-shelf coaster ever?

Yeah but it's more fun on No Limits to design inversions
