With nostalgia and personal preference penetrating the containment field, I am not sure that best spaceship avatar is the only thing fueling the quantum-suffrage drive.
The polls have closed and the winner is.. USS Enterprise from Star Trek The Motion Picture by @Orac : In 2nd place is the Romulan Bird of Prey from Star Trek by @Avro Arrow : Coming in 3rd is Serenity from Firefly by @tharpdevenport : Since I ran the last 2 contests, I am going to cede victory to @Avro Arrow Congrabulations!
Wait, I didn't know we could still cede when it wasn't a tie! * Makes note for future reference * Thanks for the (second highest number of) votes, and thank you to @Orac for the cede. I will try to come up with a new contest before the end of the weekend, even though I am completely bereft of any ideas right now. It's Friday evening, and my brain is tired of braining for now.
