So what are the advantages of becoming a Power?

I don't think the name is too much of an issue. The Mobius "massive", if you like, would support the group regardless of the name. My concern is the focus of the in-game faction. I'm a trader, and there's only one power that supports trade really well, but has a lot less players supporting it. Which direction would the group support? If the faction went on to become a power, would people in the group be led towards coming out of the group and into pvp to defend the territory? If you were able to undermine and eventually defeat another player power without leaving the private group, or be the power being undermined by another player group in their' private group, would this not feel a little like playing battleships without ever seeing your' opponent or their' moves?

You could try using it as a pickup line in bars.

Record video if you do please ☺

Rule 1: Pillage. Then burn.
Rule 2: No such thing as overkill, as long as there are reloads.

You get a special handshake, pin badge, faction song, and monthly newsletter :D

Seriously though, there doesn't have to be an advantage, it's something to add some interest to the game.

Yay, im really excited about this. Won't feel so lonely in the PowerPlay.
Naming it something "Mobius" is fine with me. Its a name that is recognized in the ED world, we shouldn't change that.
Altough "CMDR Anteronoids Biggus Dickus Mega Faction" would do as well.

I support this as well. As long it wont be mandatory to participate.
Iam not a fan of the Powerplay so iam quite sure i wont take part in it.
But as the game evolve and new features are introduced its good to offer our members diversity and options that follow the expansion of the game.

I don't do PP, never have. I will if this happens.

I'm pretty ambivalent to what the group is called, but something with Mobius in it . It'll just get called Mobius anyway.

I would like the home base to be somewhere or very near to somewhere I can buy lots of shiny things for my ships, and ideally lots of ships to put the shiny stuff on, but it's also not really important, I can just go to Shinratra if I have to.

Other than that, any time today would be fine :D

supporting the player faction wont be mandatory, and I will sell it that way, elitepve will remain what it is today and wont be rebranded as a player faction, its just something extra to get behind,
