And if the creation of the game was January, it has to be celebrated in January... or does steveopotamus suggest we celebrate next christmas on 18 June ?
Ok, First: The game didn't start in January, but rather February. So your analogy is flawed. A better one would be to say that you are suggesting that we celebrate Christmas a month early next year.

Secondly: Did it just dawn on people that the 10 years was approaching? If so, then plan better next time. Regardless of how many thumbs you throw up, if you have such high hopes for the 10 year anniversary, then rushing a name through is silly. Next round falls directly after the 10 year mark, so why not have a 10 year themed round name competition and get creative ideas that directly relate to the 10 years. This way you plan it out, it goes through the appropriate process, and you don't abrogate the player's individual right to vote.

Lastly: Naming a round in honor of the 10 year mark is something I'm sure alot of players will want to do. I would encourage appocomaster and the rest of the pa team to send out a mail at the end of this round to ask for 10 year themed round names so that we can get some really great ideas in there.
