Ooooooh, shiney! Lots of questions!
First, I'd like to point out that it's the S-IsixVU region, not the S-IgeeVU region. Perhaps we should have a committee to discuss the changing of EVE's fonts? ;)
Will this event only be for the naming of the regions? Or, will each constellation and system also be eligible for receiving names? If not, why not?
Will every seat's input be taken into account, even for regions (and constellations & systems, if those are also to be named) to which that seat's alliance has no sovereignty? For example, assume that GoonSwarm and FREGE have seats on this committee. Would GoonSwarm have input on the naming of the S-I6VU region, its constellations, and its systems to which they have no sovereignty?
If that *is* how things are going to be done (only the sovereign entities have input on the naming of sovereign areas and *everyone* has input on the naming of neutral areas), then what about systems in which sovereignty is only neutral because of some ****up with towers? Would sovereignty history be taken into account? For example, there are some systems which had some towers being upgraded but during the upgrade process had lost sovereignty and is now neutral during this announcement. Would that suddenly allow for every seat to give their input on the name of that system? Or else, if there has only been one alliance in the history of that region's, constellation's, or system's sovereignty, then would only that alliance have input on the naming of that area?
Another issue here is that there are a number of alliances who may see this as a land-grab and try to claim sovereignty in neutral systems simply so that they can try to gain a seat. I don't want to see this happen, as they have had no previous claim to any of the regions. I'd prefer not to make any specific examples, but I'm sure all of the major players know whether or not specific other alliances actually use these regions. I suppose the easiest way to solve this issue is to base the claims to seats according to sovereignty on the day before this announcement had been made.
