Ok, but lets get a better name.

"Cool Block" sounds like a ban on cool people. Like if you show up, and you're a really cool person, they'd stop you and say "WHOA! HOLD IT!!! WE HAVE A COOL BLOCK IN PLACE! LAME PEOPLE ONLY! You'll have to leave! And take your 5 girlfriends with you! Your lifestyle of having multiple types of sex, with multiple people at once, is far too cool for us here!"

Or it’s the cool block where the cool people hang out and you can be cool by hanging out there too
