Productive post indeed.Sorry, just dropped in to point out that after 390 pages of this thread, you still haven't found it?
Sort of, all I can say without breaking any copyrights, the name-generation is based on a carefully constructed string. It should be the same as used in early Elite games. However it changes depending on version/edition.What if ciphers like that are what they use in their name generation systems. Did anyone every figure out the name generation for the different elite games?
"Can't jump to a planet" they said.Mission Impossible?
No way am I watching that!
Don’t want my iPad autodestructing!!!
Did the live stream video D2EA made give any results? He ended up with a list that was pretty narrowed down.What if ciphers like that are what they use in their name generation systems. Did anyone every figure out the name generation for the different elite games?
And even though I've never tried to hunt Raxxla, nor do I understand half the stuff that's said here, I've always enjoyed reading about it. Keep up the good work everyone (however many forum pages it takes).Well, I'm not even sure we're any closer to finding Raxxla than when this thread was created. But so far the journey's been fun, tho.
Good point.Suspicious isn’t it! And you’re other half would be Three, and there are a lot of triangles in ED, including the basis for the rotating hexagons in the HUD. Admit it, youre a Raxxlan in disguise adding to the obfuscation to keep us from finding the goal!
Accordingly to EDSM:Do we know, roughly how much of the galaxy has been explored now? I was a little stunned to see in the Codex that I had visited 3000 systems, without exploring too much, mostly inside the Bubble. I consider myself a newbie. I know the galaxy is huge, but how many systems are accessible? Is it literally hundreds of billions?
In that case, if Raxxla was located at the far side of the galaxy, it seems that it would take some time to find it, unless someone was very lucky?
I'm entirely certain someone could easily write a program that would essentially find raxxla.Accordingly to EDSM:
0.009639% of the galaxy has been discovered on EDSM, it will take 39,934 years, 8 months, 9 days to discover it entirely.
EDSM listed only stars reported by 3d party software directly from commanders who use it, but this is exactly that rough estimate you wanted to see.
So, if we exclude all permit-locked regions, we can estimate roughly 20 000 years to find Raxxla by brute-force exploring

Well, I hope to last long enough to find it, but as a pensioner 20,000+ years is pushing it a bit...I kind of doubt that Raxxla will reveal it self from regular scanning and probing. 20 000 years is probably a bit low.

Even with my current strategy of preservation in alcohol (lavian brandy, naturally )
Most probably you are correct. I think it behaves like Voyagers and will reveal itself in contacts in close proximity only. In this case it can be in any system, even in the Bubble or nearby.I kind of doubt that Raxxla will reveal it self from regular scanning and probing. 20 000 years is probably a bit low.
