    So a lot of people on the B.net forums are trying to get a newly discovered planet to be named Reach, it has water on the planet and may contain life.

    The thread on B.net started on 12/17/09 and already has 500 posts just within 11 hours after its creation.

    A bunch of Russians have been trying to get the planet to be named Siberia

    the original thread can be found here
    I also quoted it for all of you

    PLEASE DON'T POST THE NAME REACH! PLEASE ONLY VOTE THE NAME BY FOLLOWING THE SECOND LINK!

    If the Whole comunity votes we could have Reach. We've claimed First Page.

    Information Here

    As was said in the Flood forum.

    Well Reach still is a good name for the first Human colony outside the solar system. "Man's reach exceeds his imagination."

    I just made it a bit simpler for you guys:

    CLICK (SECOND LINK)

    On that page there are quite a few "Reach"s. Vote them up. Also vote down those annoying Siberias. More "Reach"s can be found by clicking next.


    I contacted Wired To apologise for all the Reach Posts we made.

    Scott,

    Thanks for the apology. Siberia blew up so absolutely that I haven't even seen Reach yet. But as for Reach, no worries - it happens, you meant well. The Russian script kiddies are much higher on my list :)

    Cheers,

    BK


    I want my descendants to go to REACH. WHO's WITH ME!



    So what do you guys think of this? Do you think it was wise of NASA to let people vote on a new planet name when the voting system is ****** up?

    Vote on your fav planet name too

    Sorry to be off-topic, but the nested quotes don't seem to be skinned yet in the Pikmin Skin. I'll go fix that now.

    looks like Reach is winning in their poll

    I don't really care either way for Reach, but I just don't want Siberia to win, it doesn't fit at all with the description of that planet
