Bring back old Omicron naming scheme.

[Venkman]

That doesn't make this thread any less valid. Changing the names back would take just a bit of infocard editing.

I'd happily offer my help for that.

And renaming the systems tbh.

Dunno why they did it initially.

Beats me, but seeing Omicron Tau is just disgusting.

Yes, we should rename it Omicron Venk.

Should rename it to what it used to be.

I actually do agree with this. New naming sucks.

Omicron systems naming was inconsistent before the change you now complain about. Most of the deep Omicrons along with the Hispania capitals followed the scheme of "Omicron <Greek Letter>", while a few deep Omicron systems along with the non-capital Hispania systems followed the "Omicron-<number>" scheme. We've had Omicrons Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Eta, Theta, Iota, Kappa as well as 64, 74, 80, 81, 82, 85, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 96, 99 and 100 on the map of 4.85.

With the change in the naming scheme we only have "Omicron <Greek Letter>" names now. Much more consistent in my opinion than the previous mixed naming.

Note: of course the slight inconsistency of Minor, Major and Lost remained after the change in names, but to me it appears none of us is bothered by that. Right?

The inconsistency added charm - as if new Omicrons were being discovered or deprecated all the time. It made them feel less tame.

tbh despite being in disco for yonks i dont remember what the old names were outside of omicron 74, we have always had theta delta gamma lost major and minor i dont remember any others

Edit: Post above mine answered this

[Thyrzul]

None of them feels any less charming, hostile, unknown, desolated, dangerous or any different at all with just a rename. I mean, it's just a name.

EDIT: But if it means a lot to you, if anything, it should make the renamed systems feel more, not less, like deep Omicrons, which had this naming scheme by default, one more thing why I don't understand your point.

Subjective. As someone who lives and breathes the Omicrons, I feel the aesthetic of them was diminished by giving them names over numbers.

Exactly that!

And also, Sigma, Omega, Tau should not be combined with Omicrons because it just looks stupid. We already have Tau systems, Omega systems, Sigmas... combining those with "Omicron" is just awful.
