I don't think it is fair to judge where to put the server for DFO via these forums. As it stood previously the majority of players were from NA and not from EU.
Placing the server in EU would likely just completely screw over well over 70% of DF's population with very high ping. NA EAST server worked fine and was a super nice split down the middle for the population. The only people who would have high ping would be Australians, China and Russia. Very small number of people in those regions atleast those who play DF.

It will probably be US east. There's a lot of Europeans on this forum and the official ones, but we all know there's more North American players overall. Besides, the ping from EU to NA is better than NA to EU on average.

I agree. East coast US (preferably NYC) would be optimal. A bit early to have this discussion though lads, don't you think?

Based on Darkfall's history of server numbers NA seems to be the best choice, east coast wherever you can get the best ping from EU.
NA kept far more numbers than EU throughout the history of the game and I believe from what I've heard in DFUW it is the same thing with NA being more popular.

It's a long while off yet I'm sure but I'll put in my two cents.
East coast NA is clearly the best option.
NA had more players and retained more players than EU servers did.
There was a lot of EU players in DFO that would come to NA and play there cause EU was dead
NA to EU Ping is better than EU to NA ping
Placing the server in any place other than east coast NA is going to hurt server population.
Honestly, why is this even being discussed. Seems like a no brainier to me.

Poll isn't the most fair because the majority of people that would play the emulator don't visit the forums. East coast US is the best choice, and I'm saying this as someone from Europe.
