			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Winner: @wishes</strong> !</h3>
<p>Congrats @<a href="http://twitter.com/velofille" target="_blank">wishes</a> for picking out the winning name! My explanation for the win is simple; she got lucky.  &#8217;Hermes&#8217; is a name very close to home. Next step is making some cloth wings to put on the back tires! *Looks at @wishes for her artistic skills.*</p>
<p>I played <a href="http://www.station.sony.com/casualProduct.vm?Id=040" target="_blank">Tanarus</a> for many years (7?) with the handle (name) &#8217;Hermes.&#8217; Judge me all you want, that game <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">was</span> is awesome. Check out the minimum requirements for a good laugh. Gamer geeks can understand how attached one gets to the handle of a player. The name came from my healthy addiction of &#8220;base flagging.&#8221; She had absolutely no prior knowledge of this, so her name was quite the shock.</p>
<p>Future contests will have a better way of judging. We will most likely leave it up to the people of the internet, or get experts. This was just for getting our feet wet.</p>
<p><strong>Future Contests</strong></p>
<p>If you have any ideas for future contests (silly/creative/geeky welcomed), or would like to sponsor a contest, send an email to contact@realgeeksride.com. The prize does have to be something one can hold in their hand.</p>
