I realized yesterday, but I preferred not to say anything until someone did, but it seems that nobody has read this and I am sure this means something.Can it be the final decision? Well, maybe Jens or somebody can say something about this.Yesterday I visited the Timo Kotipelto's guestbook and I read this. I quote it:
Timo Kotipelto guestbook wrote:
Hi Timo! How are you? I\'m writting from Argentina. I was so sad because of what had happened in Strato. I hope everything would be solved and you and the guys would be ok and preparing a new album or a tour. You can always count with us, your fans! Greetings from Buenos Aires! P.D: When you will come back to Argentina?
And the answer:
I want to come back to Buenos Aires with Stratovarius. Hopefully next year!!!

Well people, what do you think? Do we need and explanation?
It couldn't have been a lapsus.

That would be freakin awesome if that is true, I really hope this means we'll get a Stratovarius album from this lineup.

I'll say they should come to Santiago de Chile instead... or Washington DC!

Nice! I hope the tour includes Brazil as well. Oh man, I really can't wait!
But I guess the point Lurdi is trying to make is that TK referred to the band as
Stratovarius, and that this could mean that they had made up their mind and will keep the name.
I'm a bit skeptical though. What else could TK say? "I want to come back to Buenos Aires with
the band that we once used to call Stratovarius but now we haven't made up what we're going to call it yet."?

Its a good indication, but lets wait til Jens posts it before we are 100% sure.
But, I hope its true.

I don't think Timo Kotipelto is trying to say anything different. It's clear, they come back with Stratovarius, he says that.
...but, let's wait, anyways if that sentence is not clear, then I don't know what's clear.

He could have said "the band", "the guys", or just "I want to come back!".
Still, let's wait for official news.

We'll have to wait and see what this means, but I'm with the rest of you I really hope this means they've decided to stay Stratovarius
