Let's face it, Stardock is running out of letters. May be they should switch to Cyrillic? It has more letters...
Frogboy would never resort to anything so unamerican.
I imagine ".z1a....z1z" or some equally brillant all-american solution will occur to them.
All-American? I say Frogboy and the team should start naming releases after presidents.

I had a friend in college who was an astronomy major. He told me during one lecture, where the professor was writing some huge equations on the blackboard, and he started to run out of both english and greek letters, and he started using hebrew. I vote for hebrew...
Well, remembering the power level of offspring in the early version, I'd say after Z, there will be 1.9GT

They should alternate masculine and feminine names like the tornados (just to be fair to the ladies)
How about a "Name the beta version" contest. Lots of chances to win!
That's why I use numbers in my own stuff. 1.19.001 thru 1.19.999, followed if necessary by 1.19.1000, etc.
I have seen this happen befor the standerd is to just add anouthe decmel point 1.19z.01
The plan with 1.1 betas was to roll over to aa (then ab, ac, etc, like a base 26 number, with the alphabet as numerals).
I don't see why they would have changed this. It seems far more logical than delving into characters that are not easy to produce on most keyboards or needlessly complicating the system by adding another decimal.
Why not just use the random name generator from ingame? Version 1.19undhungufunkle...
If one's called Obama it would have to be far-and-away worse than other.. it would not only be a huge disaster but would up the cost of making the game by 10 fold
