I've already named it "Pirate Paradise", so now we can start naming systems. Pirate

Fair enough, but I put forth these "demands" (I'm too feeble to actually demand something though)

1) One of Temperate Planets must be named "Bojopolis"

2) There must be some very large colorful gas cloud

3) The pirates must be jolly and sing ol' sea songs

But how likely would it be that the Dev teams had time to invest in making a whole other region when they could just seed it into existing space...I really hope it's not Amarr, I like their style but their space is probably full of whacko's.

But I change my bet as I have no counter bets to compete, Amarr. They have 8 regions...Amarr.

In Eve, whoever controls an outpost can set the name. Can we name districts? Forget districts 1 through 5. How about:
Freedom's Landing
Brown sinkhole of Kitten Doom
Cloneslayer Gulch
The Kingdom of Bob
and
This is Not the District You're Looking For!

I assume by this you mean no planets in lowsec outside the FW regions, since Gallente hisec is full of them. My relatives keep asking about fighting in Sinq Laison because they see districts when they do Planetary Interaction: http://imgur.com/1ROcf0L Even so, I appreciate the hint that the districts we are looking for might not be deployed yet. Did you ever go back and look at that Territorial Warfare thread again? Correct, we seeded the high sec planets with districts as well. Been focused on the dev blog feedback thread. Silly me... I just realized that Sinq Laison has 14 temperate planets in non-FW lowsec and is directly adjacent to all four empires' main regions (Domain, Metropolis, The Forge). http://evemaps.dotlan.net/map/Sinq_Laison#temperate Perhaps I should tell my relatives in Mirilene to tool up their production of infantry-related stuff.

It's right next to the FW blackrise space and it has as ton of low sec systems and pockets. I think Lonetrek only has 11 or 12 temperate planets in lowsec. It could be done, but they'd have to max out the districts on each one. So close to Jita? You think we are that nice?

Personally based on Lore, and recent events, I would say somewhere in Amarr or Khanid lowsec. Out of sheer curiosity if based on recent events why not something up in Caldari/Gallente space? The only G/C regions that fit the criteria (that we've been given) are Sinq, Lonetrek, and The Forge. The others have too much FW and not enough non-FW lowsec. Lonetrek and The Forge have the minimum number of lowsec temperates, Sinq has a few more, but still it'd be tight. The appropriate Caldari regions are also fairly remote from the Amarr and Minmatar. Mind you, I'd be happy to have it be Sinq. That's where most of my toons live. The problem is that it would require Roden to listen to Kyraella Idama and that's never gonna happen. That sends us back into Amarr/Minmatar space. In Minnie space, only Molden Heath has enough non-FW temperates and it's in the rump end of nowhere. In terms of Amarr space- Genesis is the best fit overall, followed by Aridia, Derelik, and Khanid. Those last three are too remote from the other empires to make a good test bed, though. So, unless the plan is to stick the mercs so far out that only corps friendly to one faction can get OBs, the region has to be Genesis (~40 planets) or Sinq Laison (~15 planets). Or it could be in "Pirate Paradise" with a Genolution station in "Bojopolis". BTW, if it IS Sinq, where should I send the big hobbit foot slippers for you to wear during videocasts?

Last I heard out of devland, it was not planned for but being taken under consideration for some possible testing or something down the road.
Heinz Doofenshertz BetaMax. CRONOS. 366	Posted - 2013.04.05 01:46:00 - [73] - Quote Foxfour Because recent events and exclimations by the leaders of those regions, kinda want us dead. The Empress has already released a statement welcomeing any and all Bunnies into the region. It could be minmitar, but unlikely as the tribes are always fighting each other, another group claiming territory wouldn't be welcome. thus Amarr systems, or khanid kingdom would be the ideal areas. Logic, on the internet, I know right.
Rubico BetaMax. CRONOS. 2	Posted - 2013.04.05 06:36:00 - [74] - Quote It seems as if it cannot be Ardia as i suspected, there are 75 temperate planets. 75*5 = 375 =! 250 no dice. To be honest all roads are pointing towards genesis. there is enough contiguous lowsec compared to other regions, it is centrally located in eve and to the current storyline, and it has genolution stations.

That is if they don't add another region entirely, which is very much a significant possibility given the population density growth in eve and prior precedents of adding space with new features (Black Rise with FW, wormhole space for Apocrypha) We are not adding a new region for this. :)

Jove space was ruled out. That should cut some of it off, is Genesis a FW region?

What's the region where Naguton/Sahda is? Is that a FW region? I approve of your selection based on where I started my eve career as a pirate.

I approve of your selection based on where I started my eve career as a pirate. Domain. Domain is the "main" region of the Amarr empire. It does have plenty of non-FW lowsec... Actually, looking at the map, Domain is probably the second best-connected region after Sinq Laison. It just lacks a direct link to Minmatar space. I might have to bump that to the top of my speculation list. Even though the Amarr stink.

To do orbital bombardment for planetary conquest battles, that is corporations fighting to own districts, you need to be in the corporation or alliance. So actually, the hint is that we are looking for non-FW space for Planetary Conquest, as FW space will still be used for FW battles.

Reav Hannari Red Rock Outriders Red Rock Consortium 468	Posted - 2013.04.05 13:18:00 - [81] - Quote My guess is still Aridia as the front runner, Molden Heath as a second and maybe Genesis due to its location and being somewhat neutral due to CONCORD.

Blech. I hope you're wrong about Aridia and Molden Heath. Both of those are in the kitten end of nowhere relative to the other factions.

They needed those for the current (old) corp battle mechanic.

We know they are trolling us... ahem "Customer Interaction"ing us. The question is how much. They've been pretty consistent on a few things- 250 districts, lowsec, non-FW. Other than that, it's all speculation. Of course, somewhere in this thread the right answer has probably appeared. For all I know, the devs haven't decided yet and they're letting us do all the work by being coy and acting like there's a big secret.
