You are right.<br /><br />In relation to your todays post, i could only state again, that a focus on individual pilots might be considered. That's fitting perfect to your appendix requirements. And in contradiction to a donation to a Alli, you have no dead weight or stupid ISK sinks in between donation and reciever.Stan vanderVillenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-1254127995915163382015-10-08T19:18:54.092+02:002015-10-08T19:18:54.092+02:00How you spend your money is totally up to you Gev....How you spend your money is totally up to you Gev. I know the guys and gals at MoA appreciate your funding, almost as much as they enjoy killing goons. :)<br /><br />I know the U.S. Navy puts a much coveted letter 'E' on the sides of their ships when they earn the "Battle Effectiveness Award". Maybe something similar could be in order? The "Gevlon Effectiveness Award" perhaps, a letter G? Here me out on this, it's a hybrid solution:<br /><br />1. Best alliances at killing goons get funding.<br />2. Best corporations get funding.<br />3. Best pilots get funding.<br /><br />This will stir up competition. Alliance leaders will continue to actively search out the best corps and the best FC's (already happening in MoA). CEO's will dedicate more time finding the best pilots as opposed to riding the coat tails of other more active corps in the alliance (recruiting is hard). And pilots will compete with each other, and log in more often.<br /><br />Eve is played by at least 90% guys, so what stokes testosterone more than competition? Gamefication of the game. <br /><br />In my opinion a hybrid solution will motivate and maximize effectiveness across the board and raise all three levels together.<br /><br />I better post this anonymously.

Work out a formula regarding how much you are willing to spend per top 50 (or realistically per top 25) position and publish those numbers.<br /><br />People will compete with each other trying to get the most kills. The damage caused will skyrocket when pilots will know that they are in no3 spot, and they need around 30 kills in 2 days to lock that no1 spot and the 5 billion that come with it.<br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-81069721524825094842015-10-08T13:44:05.123+02:002015-10-08T13:44:05.123+02:00Because they rotate a lot.

For example Erebus SilentKill (Synapse., The Kadeshi) is one of the top MoA pilots and joined MoA in 2014/11/04 19:42.

An in this list of top 50 individuals the first MOA pilot is in the ranks of 20+?<br />You should really review your strategy and not burn the money to the epic troll of EVE, but to dedicated single pilots. <br /><br />I would really like to see a comparision of "gank the afk ratter in deklein" vs "gank the afk freighters and miners in highsec". My guess: the amount of stupidity is the same across the game. If you see the time and ISK effort of Code, the fact that a big part of the gameplay revolves around stupidity of others, you have to realize, that you never will beat this by paying MOA or anyone else.
