The GTC's Capital Ship/Space Headquarters

Alright, we've had a bunch of suggestions for the name of the Guild Capital Ship now. So, I'll put a poll and everyone can vote for them. I'll put nearly every suggestion in the initial voting.

I voted for Carnage, I love that name. It was either that or the Centurion

I have gone for the Corrupting Shadow, it goes with my personal ships name which will most likely be 'Lingering Twilight' (sadly that name has now been slightly damage by those "vampire" movies)

I know im kinda late to the party but I have a few suggestions in case if anybody thinks they are any good. I kinda stole halves of Typho's too...

Corrupting Blight

Tainting Shadow

Merciless Bane

My vote is for the Tainting Shadow.

acctually i like the tainting shadow as well

Well, since a couple of you have decided that you like Darc's suggestion, the "Tainting Shadow", I have removed one of the options that didn't receive any votes, and so you may now remove your current vote and switch it to "Tainting Shadow", if you wish.

Have changed to Tainting Shadow, good thinking Darc

Hmmm I didn't think any of my names would be that popular.

Anyway, I voted for Tainting Shadow but I also think Corruption is a really good name and I hope there is a vote off between them.

The votings very spread out, I like that my suggestions have gotten some support.

My favourite frigate is "Indefatigable"!

Though that's an actual see frigate, not a space one.

I'll suggest it anyway since Leviathan is out.

And if you take it, my vote moves from "Corrupting Shadow" and goes on this one

I voted The "Tainting Shadow"

If that happened I would tell them to read a proper dictionary not a silly online one. But there can be immature, its good for the guild, I would put a bounty on their head and let GTC employees have some hunting practice.

Also it reminds me of Dragon Age which is a bonus!

I suggest a vote run-off between anything with at least either 2 or 3 votes.

I think no matter what, we will run into players that think because they are online they can say whatever they want. If we're a strong guild it's inevitable we will draw as much hate as respect. We just have to not stoop to their level.

Well, no one would make fun of the name S.S. Owen.

Well, it's been around a week or so since we began the poll for the ship's name, so, as Darc suggested, we will move onto round two of deciding. All options that have two or more votes will move onto round two. Unfortunately, however, the "Leviathan" will not be able to continue onto round two, as it is the name of a ship from KotOR I, and we don't want to seem like we are unoriginal and just copy names. So, sorry for all you people who voted for it. However, there's plenty more choices to choose from, so get voting!

I'll go with Corruption on this one.

Tainting Shadow for me

I think we should norrow it down one last time to the corruption and tainting shadow...that way everyones vote will count to the final decision

It probably will, but lets wait a while longer for everyone to vote for the current options.

I voted tainting Shodow

Well, it's been a week now, and the outcome looks final. I was originally going to finish off with a third round, if choices got very close, but many members agree that seeing as the Corruption has pulled far ahead, then we should not go into a third round, and finish off here.

With a lead of three votes, the Corruption is the name that most people in the guild think would suit the GTC capital ship. Congratulations goes to Typho for suggesting the name (No, I didn't rig the competition).

Now all is needed is the ship's class.

For the ship's class, I suggest the either the Lancea-class Battle-cruiser (Lancea is Latin for Lance), the Stilus-class Battle-Cruiser (Which is Latin for Pike). These suggestions stem from the fact that the Achilles is a long and thin ship, and it resembles a pike or lance. Another suggestion would be the Vindictus-class Battle-cruiser (Which is just an aesthetic choice, with no real reasoning behind it).

Well i may not have voted for this one but I am happy it has won its a good name.

As for class I like Lancea-class Battle-cruiser best. I don;t have any other suggestions.

I like Lancea-class too.

I'll leave the suggestions open for a few more days, though if no one has anything else to suggest for the class of the Corruption, then I might as well make a poll with the ones I've suggested.
