BNR Voting -- Impossible

Post by Jeb Clampett »

This is the poll for voting on the best named race that, unfortunately, is not even theoretically possible.

I've given a brief summary of each proposed race, but for the full effect, read the original posts -- really worth your time; they are so very funny!

Prizes:
first place: 5K Game Points
second place: 4K GPs
third place: 3K GPs
fourth place: 2: GPs

Thanks so much, Jeb, for the contest....the prizes were far from being 'peanuts' !!!

I had a lot of fun looking up all those characters. The only main Peanuts character I couldn't find was Schroeder (sp) - might have to fix that and see he's represented in the Sim :)

And thanks to everyone who voted for my entry.
