If PC ever expands far enough to include the Socks IV planet, the devs should make it so that all districts on the planet have a flag with four socks on it. |

CCP FoxFour wrote:I want to start by saying congratulations to NFP for winning the Prime League EU tournament. Your skill and capabilities are a notch above the rest, I do not look forward to seeing you on the battlefield. Now on to the real matter at hand. NFP have posted a poll asking what they should name a planet; the naming of a planet being one of their prizes. I am here today to encourage you all to vote for Pluto as the name of the planet. Why? Why should you vote for Pluto as the name of the planet? We know from old historical files that there used to be a planet in humanities home system called Pluto. It was stripped of it's status as a planet because humanity thought it was too small to be called a planet, that it didn't deserve to be a planet. This injustice has gone on for far too long. It is time that Pluto not just got it's status back, but found it's way here, to New Eden. I come before you today to ask that you help make this a reality. Give Pluto the respect it deserves. Let it stand as a reminder of the past for all of humanity throughout New Eden. Let it show that the past is not forgotten and that anything lost can be brought back. Most importantly by naming the planet Pluto we show that size does not matter. We, mercenaries of the ground, occupy a spot in the stars along with capsuleers. Let us show them that size does not matter when it comes to our fighting spirit, our capabilities, and to our desire to work together. These are the reasons I come before you today to ask that you follow me in voting that the planet be named Pluto. To vote simply follow this link and vote for Pluto: http://strawpoll.me/462237[img]http://i.imgur.com/YM5Af0f.png[/img] Thank you all for your support and for making the right choice. I look forward to seeing Pluto amongst the stars as a planet, the title it deserves.

Your corporations internal forums, twitter, IRC, everywhere you can. Let's gather our friends and do the right thing!
ill leave you with this comic for letting players choose names :)

I don't want that either. Names like Socks IV and SoonTM would just be an insider only a part of the Dust Community would understand. But Pluto: Everybody would understand the joke. |

Also since I find people here may find interest in this, did you know that modern science can not prove how many planets are in our own solar system?
The basic gist of it is everything between the sun and Mercury is too bright and everything past our known planets is too dark so we cannot see them. For instance based on some gravity predictions on some asteroids many scientists are convinced there is a planet out there orbiting our sun that is 4 times the size of Jupiter, but it doesn't receive enough sunlight to see. Oh and the article states some gibberish about a second sun which has been disproved so ignore that. |

As SocksFour mentioned above, it's devhax. They (and I think GMs? Maybe?) can post pics, but mere immortal mercs like us (and presumably CPM as well - I haven't seen any of them use [img] tags successfully yet) are unable to replicate such feats - EVEN when quoting a dev post with a picture in.

Pluto would lead many website to write about it, making Dust 514 more famous. If it'll be named Socks IV only we in the forums would care. |

There's no joke with Pluto. It's not even mildly amusing, it's just disappointing.
"They could name their own planet and they did what?" |

And they named it like a former planet which got it's planet status revoked and made it a planet again. This is just genius. |

Thumb Green wrote:Grit Breather wrote: Socks IV can only exist in the Socks system
Not if alcohol and/or drugs are involved and with this community that's a certainty. And it's easy to fit this into lore. A crew of a ship got drunk & stoned and crash landed on a planet. In their inebriated state they were so distraught that they named the planet Socks IV in memory of all the socks lost in the fiery crash. You could name it Soxfor ... pronounced the same and it can be in any system ... and people would still get the reference |
