That's a pretty rock solid argument. [[User:Cypra|Cypra]] 03:42, 11 January 2007 (GMT)

You never cease to amaze me, Delph. Frankly, I don't have any way of disputing that. P.S. Was there some recorded 'argument' before, so we could see some other opinions? [[User:Lynna|Lynna]] 03:47, 11 January 2007 (GMT)

:::Unfortunately, nothing that's recorded. I believe I was contacted in person about that, though the [http://www.achaea.com/lore?title=Achaea&action=history history] page of the article has a brief blurb by [[User:Kastalia|Kastalia]] mentioning it. If I remember the exchange correctly, it was on "good authority" that Achaea referred to everything. Granted, that doesn't mean the planet's not named Achaea too, since you've got cases like the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane_%28Magic:_The_Gathering%29 planes from M:tG] named after their main planets and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane_%28Dungeons_%26_Dragons%29 planes from D&D], such as Greyhawk, named after single cities. I'm not saying that this is reason enough; I'm merely showing that it's not unprecedented in high fantasy games. (When it crosses my mind, I'm loath to refer to things like D&D and say "but they do it this way, so we should, too.")
