Congrats Luke. I was going to submit Talon, but it had already been submitted (and crossed out) several times already!

I still like Habrok (Norse Muthology - Hawk), but I can live with shooting down a Talon just as easy!

I'm looking forward to OEC members flying a ship named by a nazgul. Irony.

Re: Jumpgate Evolutions Octavius Light Fighter to be called Talon

In case you guys aren't aware, ND are taking these namelists and saving them, I'm sure. Just because THIS ship didn't have your name on it, doesn't mean that one of the other many hulls in the game won't.

"Why should we try to brainstorm ship names all day long? Lets let the community do it for free! Have a contest and give 'em a free picture or something! Brillaint!"

Re: Jumpgate Evolutions Octavius Light Fighter to be called Talon

Well, in fact, the contests were my idea. They just agreed. So yes, they may use the names, but it was my idea back in June and it was my idea now. They don't come to us with offers. We have to get in line and ask and it has to be approved by an ever increasing number of people.

Also making assumptions isn't a good idea. I have some other facts about future name usage from the first contest that you don't know about.

Though he was indeed just about as bad-an-ass as you can get (what with his Sonic Ascendancy Cannon and all), his name was Tayln.

Sorry Oct windbags, but you're stuck with the ultra-generic "bird's toenail" for a LF.


And if "toenail" catches on as a nickname for it...you heard it here first.
