November-December Top 10
Griff’s No Shaders Shipset

No surprise that CaptSolo's shipset is #1, considering how fast it's been moving off the shelf lately!

4 stars for Taxi Galactica eh? Not bad, I'd have rated it 2!

I enjoyed exercising my vote, thank you for the opportunity... perhaps a referendum voting opportunity should go into a Democracy.oxp?

I agree on the top twenty, I have all of these OXPs!

I disagree with "Assassins Guild". This oxp is still written in legacy script. That script eats away performance, even when not used. "Assassins Guild" should only be installed when doing the missions and than removed. So, even when it is a great oxp, it belongs not to a top twenty to have always installed.

I also disagree of having both" Griff’s No Shaders Shipset" and "Griff’s Normalmapped Ships".
The normal mapped version looks great with shaders, but bad on computers without shaders. The "No Shaders" version looks better on shader-less computers but would it be a shame to use on computers with shaders.

Well, it's a Top Twenty based on popular votes, so it is no guarantee of quality (although most of them are indeed very good).
It's like these 'Best shows on TV' type polls where the 'best shows' are always trashy soaps etc
