Talk:Sector1/The Devil's Triangle (Region)

The name

It's a bit painful. I can't help feeling that it is meant to be The Devil's Triangle. Of course if it is a triangle of many devils, I yearn for a confirmation that this is intentional. OLDMURGH ^talk 07:00, 3 February 2022 (UTC)

Might be from coding, I am not sure if Devil's is accepted by a Mac, even as text variable. Btw I intend to add some background story to this region, starting with the inhabitants today.

Since I haven't encountered it in the game, am I to understand it appears as Devil's in WINDOWS and Devils in MAC? I thought this was just maybe a sloppy wiki entry. OLDMURGH ^talk 17:02, 3 February 2022 (UTC)

Hod on, if the source doesn't go any deeper than this, the Vector Map, then of course it reads correctly on this map. The culprit is the sloppy wiki entry by Treczoks. Moving and be done with it. OLDMURGH ^talk 18:52, 3 February 2022 (UTC)

Had a search on the BB and found nothing about the name. I posted a query for Cmdr Cheyd who might be able to answer (he drops in occasionally).

Montana - do we need to worry ourselves into a psychotic state about being sued by the creators of these pictures of yours? Where do they come from? I'm sure its a needless worry (free game, etc., etc., ...) but...

Do Murgh and I need to sell everything we own and leg it out east to join you in the Devil's Triangle?

Most of the pictures are from free to use webpages, tweaked and merged together. 1 picture {Edzaon} I am not sure about the source, I will do some research before I publish it.

--- If it's just the one, I'm not too concerned. It's more a matter when you have put up pictures for all 2500 systems! That's when I'll buy the ticket...

PNGWING Non-commercial use, DMCA. Last one free to use as well. Don't expect pictures for every single planet, while I might add several species for a single planet (multicultural) I only intend to edit systems an OXP I am working on is touching.

While the Devil's Triangle could be fun I doubt that you will need a ticket soon.

It would be a good good-faith move to add the license you found and any eventual artist's credit you find below the relevant image files. It might go go a long way in being tolerated by the rights holders. OLDMURGH ^talk 17:02, 3 February 2022 (UTC)

Content

This page could do with some content. 1) Why is it called the "Devil's Triangle"? Just because it consists of 3 anarchies inside a cleverly drawn triangle which excludes the fourth system Ininbi which is a confederate state? Why exclude Ininbi? And why "Devil" rather than Demon, dratted or damned? 2) Is there any history to the Devil's Triangle? 3) And why a region? Just three insignificant systems... in an entire massive zone of Galaxy 1 - which is not a region itself. But this is! 4) Why are these three systems anarchies? Is it a common cause?
