so why we should care about CSM elections ? Will they make EVE an actual PVP game as we have been promised ?

Other than the recent drama that provided pretty good entertainment, compared to the usual EVE drama, for those that were unaffected , I see no mention of CSM like anywhere.

Your next campaign starts with the last campaign 😉  
Each attempt builds name recognition.

The main benefit of the CSM is to present a diversity of views to CCP, when they ask about changing the game. CCP hasn’t budged on the importance of the CSM, despite the costs and annual calls from certain players to get rid of it.

Olmeca Gold?!

Seriously?

Wow, Multibots are now also deciding elections!

Please CCP and all other CSMs: ignore that little salty boy,… or give him a good laugh and then ignore him everytime he comes up with something.

Edit: not only election but also abusing the “report spam” option.

If the CSM is to truly represent the player base it needs more diversity. I’d suggest start categorising sections of it, so a certain number of representatives for wormholes, null, low, high. The CSM looks more like Eve doing Eurovision voting.

Olmeca Gold he definitely part of the problem in the cancer when it comes to multiboxing and I think they should investigate him and make sure that he’s not input broadcasting at least because his YouTube video showed way too many ships for one person control and for what I’ve heard is a crybaby I don’t think the CSM will get very far with him around they’ll probably either end up kicking him out of meetings or just plain out ignoring him

Ah, gotcha. so if the drones did anything to another player, presumably 60 seconds weapon timer did engage… at least there was that. But yeah, safely drone ratting from tether was not exactly “Functioning As Intended™”, I’m sure.

I, too, think DeMichael Crimson would be a good CSM and would vote for him (presuming I manage to get back to remembering to VOTE IN TIME AGAIN next year! ;D).

Not even the entire USA is upset by the electoral college, so I don’t know what the hell he meant by “whole world”.

Hey, Canada can play in the World Series along with the US. And don’t be surprised if there’s eventually major league baseball teams in Mexico (Mexico City, Monterrey), the UK (London), and Japan (Tokyo for starters) in the coming decades. MLB is looking to expand internationally.

Show us on the doll where the bomber fleet or the command destroyer fleet touched you?

People who pay (in IRL cash or plex) for multiple accounts deserve just as much of a voice as anyone else in the game, come now.

I know people who box VG, AS, and HQ incursion fleets all on their own (that’s 10 toons, 20 toons, 40 toons). Don’t underestimate the powers of ISBoxer (even sans-input broadcasting/visualFX) or EVE-O Preview paired with drone-assist mechanics and good logi skills. I’m pretty sure Olmeca has streamed and put his multi-command destroyer, multi-bomber skills up for public display. His windows are nested and he does stuff with each of them one at a time, no input broadcasting required.

The delay between MJDs is actually helpful with the rorqual excavator booshing, you don’t want all the MJDs going off at once, there needs to be a slight pause, I believe.
