Honestly I don't like gamma at all but I did vote for #TeamGamma because I think that Delta is the ugliest ship I have ever seen. I am not just including star trek ships either. Just ugliest ship period.
Something about the saucer design just looks truly horrible to me and I have no idea why. Delta needs to have the saucer replaced.
Alpha won the last vote... if that is any indication of future results... It looks like an "Escort" Carrier ship is coming to the game...
Indeed.
Most of the designs look FAR more like they were intended to be Escorts than Carriers. They simply don't feel hefty enough, and no that's not just a matter of scaling them up to be big, they could be twice the size of a Galaxy class and they would still feel small just by their design.
I voted Gamma because of the way it sits, it looks like a spider in its web. I like some of Delta's aspects, but there is no need for another ship that is so analogous with just about every Federation ship; let's do something different for a change...

They don't feel like Carriers.
I don't think they look like escorts, really — they have a fair amount of bulk. But for the most part, they don't really convey a sense of mass. Delta and Omega are really the only two I buy as full-size carriers rather than flight-deck cruisers.
I don't think the dual-hull design works well for a carrier; when space is that important, I don't think you want to break it up into two smaller sections. I also don't think snuggling the nacelles up to the hull works well for conveying the idea of a massive ship.
This is a little tougher decision from the first one (Alpha/Beta). Gamma looks better from dorsal view, while Delta has nicer side view. But Gamma also has better nacelles arrangement so my vote goes to Gamma.

Delta's saucer is... 'unique' so I voted for that one. Gamma doesn't really standout. (Plus if Delta wins, it's one step closer to proving my bracket predictions correct.)
Sometimes I think I play STO just to have something to complain about on the forums.
Went Delta as I really do prefer round saucer shapes. Though I'm not convinced on Delta's nacelle configuration.
So far, all these votes have shown me is that around half of us are going to be disappointed, and half of us are going to be satisfied with the final outcome.
Join date is wrong, I've actually been around since STO Beta.

To be honest, the only design I liked out ANY of them was Beta, and it was the first to die. I couldn't care less about any of these (IMHO) ugly four-nacelle monsters. I won't be voting.
#teamgamma although not perfect, it is better than Delta. I like the nacelle configuration, but the saucer needs some work. Delta's saucer is just horrid, and the nacelle config is,,,, nope. Gamma it is.

Gamma profile screams deep space dreadnought/carrier. Delta profile looks like a science/survey vessel with all that extra stuff tacked onto the hull and those ugly tucked in nacelles.
I said "around" half. Not based solely on this poll, but the combination of both polls thus far. And the possibility of the future polls based on what other have been saying they plan on voting for in those rounds. Also taking into account Twitter and Facebook hashtag votes and allowing for some crossover between people who voted one way in one poll then the other way in the next poll etc.

Both ugly, but the symmetrically round saucer of the Delta is just unbearable.

You people need to go to the first post and vote!

I feel that Gamma is the best looking "Squid" of the two ships this time.
Argh! You gave away what I was gonna call my Delta (if it won)... U.S.S. Waffle
Hahahaha...sarcastic much?
My thoughts exactly
The other 3 groups all had ones I outright liked.

Most unexpectedly, this turned into a flame-fest! Closed it goes!. /sigh What flamefestery is this? pwlaughingtrendy
