On the other hand this isn't a democracy. It's up to Nick to make the final decision.
I certainly hope that we don't have the kind of leadership that would disregard what the majority of their members want based on something so insignificant as personal preference.
My position personally is that we should go with the most popular choice as it's the fairest solution but even though your comments seem absolutely correct on the surface, I'd like to make the point that Nick over-riding this poll shouldn't reflect badly on him or the leadership.
Nick created this community and (we all hope) Nick will be around forever. Unfortunately the same can not be said for the members who will always come and go as their interest and disinterest in games fluctuates. On top of that popular opinion is something that changes, not only from month to month, but from day to day and what may be popular now may not be in the future.
Nick has to pick something that is not only fitting today but is also fitting tomorrow and for as long as the community survives. We'd hope it's something he likes so it doesn't drive him mental every time he looks at it.
I personally voted for my suggestion of the NicholasJohn Network. Not only does it not categorise us into any specific box but it also honours our founder and the hard work he has put into and continues to put into the community so that we can make friends and enjoy the games (and more) that we want to enjoy in a completely friendly environment.
Whatever the decision, a name remains a name and it's the people who make great communities and because of that I believe we have a fantastic future whatever flag we fly.
