Any plans to update with the current episodes? I thought I\'d give a head start with the Supreme Dalek from Stolen Earth: http://www.flickr.com/photos/29897249@N00/2627623517/ Great website!

Well done! The 'Cult of Skaro' ID tags bear a striking resemblance to imagery from the Andrew Braybrook game 'Paradroid' from the C64 in around 1985. The game involved a ship full of robots gone wild - one of the robots (the 883 model - not a coincidence there, either!) looked exactly like a Dalek, and indeed it was "known to cause extraordinary fear in humanoid opponents". To capture a robot, you had to play a mini-game where you attempted to overwhelm the logic circuits of the enemy CPU - the graphics in this minigame appear to have inspired the Cult of Skaro's ID tags to some extent. Just a theory, but would be very cool if true... Heh, your site returned the first link in a Googlor search for “cult of skaro name tags”. Well done!

Sec is the leader whereas Thay's looks like he would be second in command with Kon being third and Jast being fourth. Jast almost sounds "younger" if that's even possible for a Dalek. Nice listing though! Thanks for posting this! That’s quite interesting how the tags for the Cult of Skaro daleks are arranged.
