They weren't an option. You saying the people who gave us the list were idiots?
No, I wouldn't say that. But I would say it about the vote tallies based on the given options. It's clear that many voted on what they thought would be good for the main arena rather than scenarios, e.g. Me-410, A-26, Yak-3, don't really fill any big holes in our scenario planesets. And the G55?
The one bright spot is that 5% actually voted for the buffalo. That surprises me. All of the people who voted for "russian bomber" or "japanese fighter" and the other less popular but scenario worthy choices needed to combine their votes for one specific choice to out-vote the main arena twits.
Before I get flamed, let me concede that the P-39 was a good choice as it has uses in many different theaters of combat, and for more than one nation. The B-25, however, was just icing on the cake for the American bomber planeset. Worthy of addition, yes, but other countries' planesets needed filling out first.
Fwiw, I don't like the way the poll was worded. Every choice should be specific. The general categories will never stand a chance because of their lack of specificity.
