Unfortunately due to the lack of entries I have decided to extend the competition close date to the following Friday (17th August 2012) or until it has reached at least 15 entries.

Sorry to those who have already submitted their entries, but I'm sure you'll understand why.

I am also increasing the prize to $7,500 (in-game currency) for the inconvenience.

The following Friday is the 17th of August.

I know these are countries in Africa, but they make great names for a nice town/city.

Thank you to all the people that made an entry, shame I couldn't entice more members to participate, but oh well..

Any way..

I was going to make a poll to see which one others preferred, but I'll just come to a decision now....

The 3 that I liked the most were (in order):
  • Arenae City (submitted by FNV)
  • Pyramidion (submitted by piplupdude)
  • Ra's Garden (submitted by Jimbot2000)

Congratulations FNV - Next time I log in, I'll send you your prize (what was it?? an Iron ingot?? (joking :p )) $7,500 Coming your way :)

I Came to this decision by the dual use of the word "Arenae" - One way explained by FNV meaning "Sand" and the other that it has an Arena(e) built on the site (although it's pstones haven't been sorted out yet)

Jimbot2000 & piplupdude - As your entries were runners up, I will send both $1,250 next time I log in

Thanks again to everyone who participated!!
