Earth V2.
ok so i was researching the internet about this and i think that the best option to do with the planet is to fly all of the thirsty africans and so on who have bad aids water to the water planet so they can drink the planet's water and then we can make them repopulate on the planet because they're better now because they drank the water
[QUOTE=Alex_DeLarge;19313764]Manaan sounds a hell of alot better and it totally fits. Reach is some fucking faggy Halo name.[/QUOTE]Until someone mentioned it, I hadn't even thought that. It makes sense as a name because if we ever tried to go to another planet, this one might be the first we would "reach" for. Honestly, I hadn't even though about Halo until you said something. I've only played the first game on the PC anyway.
[QUOTE=darnok;19305874]Bob. The most generic name there is. I say we name the planet Bob.[/QUOTE] Titan A(fter).E(arth). huh? I loved that movie. I shall call it, D'graados. Because I can.
If we ever do get there, it's all water anyway. It may support life like ours, but I doubt we'd live there. Thus, we'd want some sort of cool name no one would want, such as Polyphemus (one of the sons of Poseidon). Besides, Reach should be the name of the first city on Mars.
They'd better name this Poseidon. I hope copyright problems get in the way of calling it reach.

[QUOTE=Canuhearme?;19318972]You mean Neptune?[/QUOTE] There is a planet called Neptune. [img]http://planetologist.files.wordpress.com/2009/03/neptune_voy2.jpg[/img]
[QUOTE=Mbbird;19318930]They'd better name this Poseidon. I hope copyright problems get in the way of calling it reach.[/QUOTE] What the hell is so important about calling it Reach? It's a damn game guys, not everything needs to be named after a game. Reach sounds dumb for a water world anyways (No I have not read the books so I know nothing about this so called "Reach" or how it fell)
Neptune is already taken...derp?
Siberia :smug:
[QUOTE=ASmellyOgre;19318985]There is a planet called Neptune. [img]http://planetologist.files.wordpress.com/2009/03/neptune_voy2.jpg[/img][/QUOTE] It would be like calling another planet Terra, plus it's like an unofficial rule to name planets after Roman Gods (when applicable) not their identical, yet differently named Greek counterparts.

[QUOTE=Canuhearme?;19319019]It would be like calling another planet Terra, plus it's like an unofficial rule to name planets after Roman Gods (when applicable) not their identical, yet differently named Greek counterparts.[/QUOTE] I'd like it not to be named after a Greek/Roman God/Godess simply because Earth isn't named after one. Wait, THAT'S IT! [b]WE SHALL CALL IT WATER![/b] :dance:
[QUOTE=darnok;19305874]Bob. The most generic name there is. I say we name the planet Bob.[/QUOTE] Titan AE
Manaan
Eden Prime or Eden Proxima
Pandora: Or we get blue kitty like inhabitants, or we can expect a fake vault but a shitload of new guns, 50% chance?
What I gathered from the article is that it's suggestions. Which means every single person on the planet can vote for "Reach" doesn't mean it will be used.
Haven't they learned that putting polls on the internet is a bad idea yet?
Aqunis (pronounced: awk-win-es), that just popped into my head after seeing the thread title.
We should call it Thracian Primaris.
Call it "a"
Newptune. See what I did thar?
I say we call it GayJay 1214bitch
[QUOTE=Fire Kracker;19305975]What about Eden I mean earth was a water world once too with a thin atmosphere maybe in a couple billion years it may be a paradise[/QUOTE] Not bad. Anything but this Reach that these idiots keep macroing.
Call it Chernarus,Sahrani,or Everon
Why the hell do they ask us to decide anyways? They should know that 99.9% of the internet shouldn't be given responsibility of anything more important than a TV remote, let alone naming a planet (and that's an understatement).
I'm up for Xen :v:
