I personally like the style, how they handled the rev issue. Two sides can not decide, who shall get the nice toy? So take it and let both sides play with it in the most fun way. <br />And hell, it was fun. I just like to do sometimes "stupid" things like shooting with my nereus on a rev and killing 40 hostile bombers with an indu. Why not? <br />All these things, also burn amarr, every post or announcement, all Imperium parts of the meta are always telling: Don't take it serious, it's a game. A game need to be fun. And I'm sure, it's not just me. We are able to sit in 10% tidi and still have fun. A bunch of spacefriends, nerds and clowns, we don't need to be the richest player or the best killer to have fun in eve. <br />I don't plex my accounts, I only rat occassionally because to many fleets are offered and my time is quite limited, I maximized fun per time. What is "evil" here? Only because i found max fun in the imperium?Stan vanderVillenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-74521175557699070422015-06-11T07:27:34.673+02:002015-06-11T07:27:34.673+02:00For the record the 'today' in that image i...For the record the 'today' in that image is last friday, June 5th.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-48894717745553956932015-06-10T23:07:51.410+02:002015-06-10T23:07:51.410+02:00Let's see if it's not just a troll poster....Let's see if it's not just a troll poster.

I remember how many pilots were flying through Jita during Burn Jita, just to watch ships burn and ofc get some juicy loot... So, this event provided not only fun to goon f1 pushers, but for a lot of EVE players as well.<br /><br />Is there any kind of unrest amongst goon line members because there is no need to travel to hisec, which has become a lot more time consuming thanks to fozzie and others...<br /><br />I think that by cancelling such events, Goons/Mittens is rather sending a message to CCP. In the same way as he is doing by holding H1Z1 events that might in future show a significant drop in player logins to EVE...<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03980196122718057307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-78366027279390011782015-06-10T20:50:59.786+02:002015-06-10T20:50:59.786+02:00@Talvorian: I don't question that they made go...@Talvorian: I don't question that they made good money while it lasted.

You've set up Fortress North America with two main theaters of defense (the northern can be defended by shifting resources as attacks are likely). Let's say I have to leave, and I'm able to gift you with Australia, a territory entirely separate from your territory. You place 11 armies there - 1 on each of the three useless territories and 8 on the gateway territory to protect it - and you keep it for 6 turns (getting 2 extra armies at the beginning of each turn. On turn 7, someone pushes through and conquers Australia from you.<br /><br />Does that demonstrate weakness on your part? No, you got more free armies than you lost defending it. That's exactly the situation with the south. The CFC made more in moon goo than the cost of sov structures, SRP, and sov costs, so it was a net win. Giving that territory up was the plan before the first shot was fired or the first ship was moved.Talvorian Dexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01349917611382684205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-61170661654884573442015-06-10T17:55:44.513+02:002015-06-10T17:55:44.513+02:00Eh... you bit... should have waited another week.Eh... you bit... should have waited another week.Kirnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-22573116312322539122015-06-10T14:08:52.896+02:002015-06-10T14:08:52.896+02:00@Jim L: it's good practice to abandon everythi...@Jim L: it's good practice to abandon everything you cannot keep, to avoid the losing (demoralizing, costly) battles. For example if you can't pay your mortgage, it's smart to immediately consult the bank for a little time to seek a buyer for your home instead of just waiting until evicted. This way you can sell for a higher price and have time to find another place to live and move in an organized manner. <br /><br />I commend the CFC leadership for abandoning these regions. But it doesn't change the fact that they couldn't keep it. Otherwise they would.<br /><br />Same thing with the Rev: the blueprint created big drama about ownership. While the leadership could decide "it goes to Joe", everyone else would be very upset and might leave, while the Rev of Joe would be ganked anyway (EVERYONE tries to kill a Rev). So they choose to destroy it themselves, making no one feeling cheated.

It sounds like they do not have any ISK problems.
