Revert the 'Outer-Rim' section back to 'Edge Worlds' - Lythrilux - 04-12-2016
Quote:Outer-Rim sounds weird. It reminds me of a certain sexual act that shall not be named. In all seriousness, there was nothing wrong with just calling it 'Edge Worlds'. I don't even think anyone in game or inRP calls them the 'Outer-Rim'. The regions of space where those factions lie has always been called the Edge Worlds. Dare I say it's a bit confusing calling them the 'Outer-Rim' on top of that. Whilst renaming the Border Worlds faction sub-forum to Inter-House works great, Outer-Rim does not. Revert pls.

Yes please. I don't think the Outer-Rim is actually a rim anyway, since I doubt all the systems are on the same plane.
RE: Revert the 'Outer-Rim' section back to 'Edge Worlds' - Lythrilux - 04-12-2016
Yeah, Edge Worlds is more fitting because they're literally at the edge of space.

The outer rim doesn't work as it refers to the outer edge of a galaxy, if the nav map is to be believed Sirius actually covers several galaxies which would explain why its called a sector. While I'd be content with Edge Worlds I'd much prefer something like Fringe Systems to give it a sense of proportion.

Look at this overwhelming support. We should rename the section
RE: Revert the 'Outer-Rim' section back to 'Edge Worlds' - Venkman - 04-13-2016
Yup, I agree. Edge Worlds is more fitting

I agree with Croft on this one. Fringe systems would be a more suiting name if there was ever a need for a name-change. So, to stay on topic, reverting it back to Edge Worlds would be much better.

Since I'm relatively freshly returned to Disco, I was unaware that those systems were called the "Outer-Rim." The Edge Worlds are what I called them years back, and I'll probably default to calling them just that. Heck, the red engines in-game are still called Edge World Engines, which are default on Hunter/Core/Corsair ships.

A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.

Outer-Rim smells like ass.
