Four eggs were to advance from each of the three preliminary polls. However, the first poll had a tie for 3rd, so there are actually 13 eggs in the final, not 12.
Please choose your 5 favourites, which will be used in this year's Easter event.

The creator, Dakky21, named it Bombica, which in Croatian denotes a grenade but translates literally as 'Little Bomb'. I'm not sure if it was Dakky or someone else, but I think someone ran it through a translator and we ended up with the literal translation instead of the figurative one.

Croatian, while similar to English, has distinctive names for different things. Go to Google translate and try to translate "up up up up" (as in 4 times "look up!") ... you'll get a Croatian translation which will say "Gore gore gore gore" ... Now try to translate that back to English.
I now agree, Gren-egg would be much more cool, but I would have never remembered that because literal translation of grenade to Croatian is "granata" ... and "granata" looks like this:

Haven't gotten around to scoring it.
Was supposed to have a few days off this week. First day off is always just sleeping. Then I got an extra night of work Monday night. Yesterday taking wife for MRI, today taking myself to the dentist. My week off has evaporated. Keeping my fingers crossed that I don't get called in tonight, and I'll get it scored. But it has been snowing off and on all day, so getting called in tonight remains a possibility.
