• Derby's new ring road: Lara Croft Way
    20 replies, posted
Derby City Council has opened public voting on what to call their new ring road. The top two choices will be used to name the two stretches. Lara Croft Way currently has 96% of the vote, with its nearest competitors having 1% each. Its presence in the voting is to honour the fact that Lara Croft's creator, Toby Gard, comes from Derby.

They never learn.
How irrelevant to modern times
Voted.
Hell they should name it "Have it your" and build a burger king on it
I didn't put "may be called" in the thread title because of the fucking enormous lead margin.
Fuck it, bandwagons are fun. Voted Lara.
derby is such a shithole
Guess "Sheep Shagger Lane" didn't pass eh? [editline]10:47PM[/editline] I still think the Derby Council logo looks more like a snail than a deer.

[QUOTE=radioactive;18703550]Derby isn't Wales.[/QUOTE] Not from The Peoples Republic of the East Midlands are you? It's a taunt used by Forest fans mainly.
Hahaha, oh wow.
Voted Griffon Way because Griffons are awesome.
Lara Croft is a good role model.
They'll realize the internet has attacked when the votes surpass the population
I posted this story awhile back...fun to finally hear about it again in terms of how it's going. So Lara looks like a shoe-in, eh? Awesome. Being a Tomb Raider fan I suppose I should put it on my list of places to visit in Europe. :D EDIT: Just visited the Tomb Raider Forums and this came up: [img]http://i518.photobucket.com/albums/u346/m_afiki/20091202.gif[/img]

[QUOTE=Noob_Reaper;18705828]makes sense, all tomb raider fans are nerdy seething pools of pathetic[/QUOTE] I wouldn't say that. They're actually quite nice. Apart from the fact that a number of them are Twilight fans, and that many of them are causing the downfall of the franchise by hating the changes that made Lara a more likable, human character in recent games. (Yes, a great deal of Tomb Raider fans now are female, not male, believe it or not.)
[QUOTE=Noob_Reaper;18705828]makes sense, all tomb raider fans are nerdy seething pools of pathetic[/QUOTE] The first one was good. Too bad all the ones after the first one had "25% larger tits" as their main feature and had terrible gameplay.
About six or seven years later and CAD still sucks as much as it did on day one.
