Dotlan only tells so much. I haven’t heard much about the corps moving into Delve. If only you could sort posts by region.
Hello Mike,
Thanks for posting another edition of Eve News, Weather and Sports…
Yeah, the great Howard Cosell, I definitely remember him…
However for Alliance Tournament, I think a commentator needs to be more energetic like “NFL Primetime” show Chris Berman, famous for his catchphrase “He…Could…Go…All…The…Way…” 
I have always found the concept of just watching games on Twitch somewhat confusing to me. I also don’t watch sports on TV all that much, I rather be playing instead of watching. Alas I haven’t played long enough to have any stories to tell. I noticed they need to be real stories, where is the fun in that? Campfire tales is like the man with the bloody hook for a hand. Now they call that stuff Creepypasta instead.
In games like Brood War the difference between regular players and actual pros is like a different world altogether, thus there is an actual reason to watch those but am not sure I care for EVE AT much if at all as I haven’t bothered to watch a single second of it over the years, it just feels unimportant and meaningless to me personally.
Well even many Veterans do boring stuff all the time or often and it also depends what the audience prefers to hear, for some even just telling your average stories is interesting to hear.
Even independent of this it is always good to try out new things in EVE so maybe you might find a more interesting thing to do even if unintentionally while trying out something else but stumbling upon yet another thing that is actually interesting.
I deliberately make it an important point in my guide as it is one of the problems people might face when repeatedly doing the same things for a long time which can easily lead to burnout.
Where is the fun in not telling a real story? I mean if you come up with a piece of fiction that is reasonable (there is even a forum section for that) but there the point is the interesting story, writing and artistic quality.
Coming up with in-game stories instead of retelling real in-game events would be kinda odd. Like saying you killed a Titan with a corvette while sounds impressive is just a made up thing, not sure what the point of such would be.
I have a blog and a screenshot collection and those are stories that actually happened. The point of it is to share anecdotes, steps of your journey, something interesting you’ve encountered. It would be a waste not to share it with others who might be interested in hearing them and it is a convenience feature to can just link them when they are relevant that having to type them up each and every time.
But if people would just come up with made up stories I don’t see the appeal.
Of course creating clearly marked fiction and memes just as a what-if or for the sake of entertainment that can be reasonable too, but pretending it is real and factual would feel wrong.
Btw can’t reply to your EVEmail as it says the recipient doesn’t exist. I use a third-party webmail so maybe it means your settings only allow people on your contact list to mail you or you have a CSPA charge set up or something else. (Note: You are the only one I couldn’t reply to, even tried from an alt, so the issue lies at your end.) Just thought I drop you a notice so you’re aware. o/
Cheers🍻
