New fun "mine is bigger" pissing contest!
Since CCP seems unwilling to add true in-game ping indicators let's try an unscientific method for fun? Post results of your ping or traceroute for Tranquility @ the cluster in London. Blank out the 1st few hops' IP/names to keep the creepers from "knocking at your door".
From http://eve-offline.net/?server=tranquility I gather 87.237.38.200 is a close enough destination. All PCs/Macs and many smart phones can do these 2 commands:
ping 87.237.38.200 traceroute 87.237.38.200
Tracing route to srv200-g.ccp.cc [87.237.38.200] over a maximum of 30 hops:
1 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms 192.168.96.1 2 10 ms 7 ms 8 ms * 3 9 ms 11 ms 8 ms * 4 36 ms 26 ms 39 ms * 5 9 ms 10 ms 11 ms ge-0-1-spk-cr1.cet.com [206.63.80.1] 6 19 ms 16 ms 18 ms ge-2-1-sea-cr1.cet.com [198.202.26.5] 7 16 ms 15 ms 15 ms ge-6-4.car3.Seattle1.Level3.net [4.71.152.73] 8 159 ms 171 ms 175 ms ae-32-52.ebr2.Seattle1.Level3.net [4.69.147.182] 9 157 ms 163 ms 155 ms ae-2-2.ebr2.Denver1.Level3.net [4.69.132.54] 10 155 ms 157 ms 157 ms ae-3-3.ebr1.Chicago2.Level3.net [4.69.132.62] 11 158 ms 156 ms 155 ms ae-6-6.ebr1.Chicago1.Level3.net [4.69.140.189] 12 164 ms 166 ms 159 ms ae-2-2.ebr2.NewYork2.Level3.net [4.69.132.66] 13 156 ms 157 ms 158 ms ae-1-100.ebr1.NewYork2.Level3.net [4.69.135.253] 14 155 ms 155 ms 155 ms 4.69.201.45 15 157 ms 162 ms 156 ms ae-43-43.ebr2.London1.Level3.net [4.69.137.73] 16 169 ms 160 ms 160 ms ae-58-223.csw2.London1.Level3.net [4.69.153.138] 17 160 ms 157 ms 155 ms 4.69.166.29 18 168 ms 330 ms 225 ms 195.50.122.214 19 156 ms 162 ms 160 ms srv250-f.ccp.cc [87.237.37.250] 20 157 ms 161 ms 163 ms srv200-g.ccp.cc [87.237.38.200]

Are you saying that FW & PC battles are not on Tranquility or just pointing out that instant battles are on regional servers?
You took the time to post this server info, thank you. Could you get someone @CCP to respond to opinions that Dust 514 needs in game ping stats for all participants like PC FPS' have?

OK, I stand corrected, that differs from what I gathered reading about CCP's approach using a centralize cluster in London. So divide the original issue from how well connected to London are you into moving target of how well to one of four regional central battle servers co-loc'd with Hyperina. So on one hand there's a chance at optimal server routes to players in a match, on the other hand clients with unusable pings could still be numerous & are not being culled from matches.
So plugging those IP's into traceroute yields:
US: 66ms/12hops EU: 180ms/18hops AS: 230ms/15hops AU: 197ms/16hops
Numbers pretty well ensure Asia (Singapore I assume) is a no-go while EU & AU are marginally usable. Ping is slightly better to Tranquility cluster than the EU Hyperina co-loc.
It's not simply distance it's transitioning the inter-connected collection of networks & peering points we call the Internet at "best effort".

The game chooses a server depending on best location forthe majority of players involved, that only applies to pub/FW matches though. To my knowledge, PC matches have pre-determined battleservers but dont quote me on that.

Ah well, picked up some bad intel on just what runs through London so oh no I must be stupid or something? LOL, right, back at ya knuckle draggers! Meanwhile your low IQ asses can't even install a simple printer driver without tech support.
