System 1

It's serco controlled, logically that makes serco #1 in the eyes of the devs.

Coincidence?
I think not.

(dont mind me i'm just bored)

Maybe each nation could have it's own numbering scheme. The different nations could even have different names for the same sector. Just like Deutschland is Germany in English and Duitsland in Dutch.

And well, the Sercos where once the peacefull scientists, so they probably 'invented' the whole numbering scheme, just like the US is '1' in the telephone numbering scheme.

Or possibly its the first and crudest. They obviously used it for practice and testing purposes to make sure the systems would be up to snuff by the time they got to the important NT ones.

Actually I think it's System 1 because it was the first system settled by the humans. Think; "Sol II" would be a logical choice for the first system the humans discovered.

Why don't we wait for the backstory, okay folks?

Yeah, sounds good Rogue. Until then, we Serco have claim to the first-discovered system. :P

bleh, what does the story have to do with the devs thinking serco is the cooler nation :)

Cause it's not. "Robot" nation is MUCH cooler.

it's "Pirate" now. Pay attention.

I know that n00b. I did not mean the current "pirate" nation. I meant the old "robot" nation that everyone wanted to be part of.

Not everybody wanted to be a part of it. Some people didn't need to want, they were. /me is mad because he wasn't one of those people...
