    Well, the time has finally come. After bitter debate and fallings out, spiteful back stabs and insults galore, Trodgor, M.T and myself have finally agreed upon 5 of the suggestions for the 'official (:pac:) name for the 5 station mean that is used in the main competition thread to be put forward for public vote.


    The name that grabs the most votes will be the new name for the '5 station mean'. Thanks to everyone who put forward a suggestion. They were all great :).

    Please use your votes (you can vote for more than one btw!), as they all matter. The new name be a permanent one and will eventually become a commonly used term around the world. :pac:


    Thanks again and best of luck to all!

    Just to note, results will not be visible except to Peter, M.T and myself. The winning name will be announced by M.T in the last week of June in a grand and spectacular finale :cool:

    Sounds like you were talking to another M.T. Cranium (I imagine they are thick on the ground in some parts) ... or I just didn't remember the insults and backstabbing when I came to.

    These seem like five of the better ones, hope you get the help you need. :D

    Keep them votes a'comin! :D


    And the headlines once again:

    Scientists find even more pointless particles

    Scientists have today announced the probable existence of even more complicated particles, the concepts of which are even hard to grasp even for people as clever as them.
    ‘Einstein once said that, apart from him, only a handful of people really understood relativity,’ said Professor Steve Watts, Emeritus Chair in Look Why Bother It’s Really Too Complex Science at Cambridge University.
    ‘But these days with all the press articles about particle colliders and Stephen Hawking and Bill Bryson explaining things to everybody any bloke down the pub thinks he can explain the origins of the universe. We hope that by announcing these new potential particles we can put people back in the dark about dark matter.’

    :eek:

    Ok, Poll is closed but I am not sure if it has become visible to all :o. Here is a screen grab of the poll results just in case:

    118167.jpg

    Docarch and Hellboy shot ahead of the rest and up to the last couple of votes were equal in popularity.

    However, Hellboy, who suggestion "Irish Mean Temperature" gained the most votes in the end.

    Well done Hellboy! :) A great name for the rather clinical and unimaginative "5 Station Mean". the I.M.T will now be the official name for the 5sm from here on in. Cool stuff!!!!!! :D

    Thanks a million to everyone who participated, be it with name suggestions and/or with votes. :)

    I will leave the final great words of this thread to Maryln Manson:



    Congrats again Hellboy!!!! :)
