(Just kidding, I know that was very very tortured. Really.)

I'm fine with it being correct... whatever you all want ...

At least it´s spelled correctly

Does it not imply that there are 3 words meaning the same thing, one of which is Eruptum (-ere) ?

Meaning:
erumpo: (-ere) to break out, to break open; burst forth; erupt, vent, discharge (milit.) attack
erumpi: (-ere) to break out, to break open; burst forth; erupt, vent, discharge (milit.) attack
eruptum: (-ere) to break out, to break open; burst forth; erupt, vent, discharge (milit.) attack

i only had latin for 2 years about a century ago and i failed miserably. but iirc these are various conjugated forms.
"erumpo" is 1st person present singular, but the other forms i haven't got the slightest idea.

i just remember having to learn 4 forms for each verb


but enough now from me, back on-topic:
no matter how many votes go, it looks as if it is a very close race (even considering changed opinions). imho we have two possibilities without delaying it too long:
a) a new vote with a short time frame (3-4 days)?
b) a vote where each team has a single vote, ideally the captain.

The problem with that is we have six teams, and with two options, we could have a tie.

I say let this poll play out. If it is a tie. Pick anything. "Cheese Wars" sounds good as anything.

[sabrewolf]

ok, then the tournament administrators have the decisive vote when facing a tie

[Ljube]

My vote is for Eve of Destruction.

lol Now the vote has taken another turn ... sheesh this is almost like a certain election in 2000 ... called a few times too early

We will not have a second poll. There is not time to do it properly, unless we delay this game some more. We are within possibly a few hours or days at most of starting, 3-4 days would not allow everyone to vote and still would be longer than I want to wait to start. As I said before, at the cutoff time whenever that is (the point at which I *must* pick a name) the leader wins, and "Eve of Destruction" will win if there is a tie (as two have stated they would revote that way if given the choice).
