Q&A

Q: Who else?
A: I want to believe, that UPK built or planning to build by some one else, but i dont hear official statements. There is few person or corporations, who have finances for built it. But i suppose they cant, dont want, have others plans or they built it silently. I dont have arguments for claim to built UPK and doing it first in EVE, i just try. If some one else declare to built UPK and will be have arguments on this, then i help him or compete, if investers make decision. In case, way of project will be ruled by investers council. They also decide about my possibility of decisions.
Q: Why?
A: Creation. Considering the overall, in game leisure can split on two parts: UPK building and other. They dont have practical differences. For now, mostly clear purpose is UPK can be another market, goal monument or reason for mostly epic fight, but repeat, decision will make investers. My personal vision of purpose, i will keep to myself, for now.
Q: Where UPK planning to build and anchor?
A: My vision of building plans and anchor related with Thera. Ofcourse, other discussions about where it should be, will be with investers. But important to understand: built it, anchor it and manage it, its different ways.
Q: What is main danger and protect of project?
A: Main danger its me and developer. No, i dont think that is some person or group of people can criticaly harm to project. Protect of project its any EVE player.
Q: When you planning finish project?
A: Its mostly huge project in EVE story, and iam dont have experience in lot of moments, so its hard to predict. If process will be acceptable, then in 2020 we decide to continue or close public project. Also, i believe in miracle.
Q: Why project so bad advertised?
A: I dont have time and resources for this. I agree with important of informing, but traditionaly its bread of people who dont understand product of advertising and i dont planning informing only good parts of project.
Q: Why not published technical part of project?
A: For safety reason. Lets imagine, that some of market speculators know which product need for project at some point and he can increase prices. Or some battle group will be know where is project building group working. Ofcourse, project dont have garanties of full information and material safety. API key of project processes, maybe, will be availaible to investers council.

Part investment (active)
  1. You, as person or group, declare your join to project by ingame mail to executor.
  2. You have 1 year to collect 1 or few component kit. Each component kit is 1 of 500 project goal. Component kit its a ordinary keepstar. Price of this kit is floating from 100 to 300 billion isk. How to collect them or build you choose yourself.
  3. When your kit will be ready:
    a) You keep it undefined period.
    b) Give it to executor on undefined period.
  4. Undefined period finished, when all 500 kit’s will be collected. In this period there is possible, to decline your part. In this case:
    a) You have the right to do with your kit anything you want. But before, talk with executor, couse there can be possibility to buy it by project.
    b) Ask to return your kit, which executor keep. But you must pay penalty, about 5% of components.
  5. If project will be end untill goal:
    a) You have the right to do with your kit anything you want.
    b) Ask to return your kit, which executor keep and expect penalty payment from executor, which will be equal part of project budget. So, if your part equal 1% of goal, then you get 1% of budget as penalty payment.
  6. You need keep your kit’s on npc stations. Kit’s, which you give to executor will be stay on npc station untill project goal or finish. However, i recomend you keep kit’s or give it to executor on The Sanctuary Fullerene Loom station in Thera.
  7. Any changes of this part investment will be discuss with participants.
    Your part gives you:
    One part (kit) equal to one vote, when project will be need to decide about something. But, those of participants who keep kit in their hands cant vote, but can to attend the meeting of investers. Your vote cant affect on anything beyond part investment. Vote can affect on earlier decisions in part investment. Vote can be given to anyone, even to groups, but decisions by this vote will be accepted only from one person, which have ingame character in any subscription status. Any decisions and results of investers meeting will be recorded and published. Vote and supporting it components kit will be given to project budget, if vote keeper cant contacting with executor ingame more then 3 months. Period of contacting will starting from last ingame mail to vote keeper. Vote. which given to project budget is cancelled and cant be using in voting. Vote can be returned to last keeper if investers council will agree. Component kit of cancelled vote cant be used for creating new vote by executor. In independence of vote keeper status, when project will be succesfuly end, vote keeper name are involved in named investment.

Alternative:
At present moment, there is no possibility to use that option on continuing basis, becouse of resources market problem. After changes in planetary interaction and colony project, that option will be revised. However, to first part invester i offer one time contract of gradual kit building, in individual time period ans without overpayments. It looks like:

  1. You choose one type of component* . Give me conjectural amount of isk, which need for building of one component type.*
  2. We agree about time or/and i give every week report about building process.
  3. When one type of components will be builded, i give it to you on The Sanctuary Fullerene Loom in Thera.
  4. We repeat 1st part with another component type, untill component kit will be full. After that you decide what do with this kit, depends of part investment rules.
    *components Structure acceleration coils/electromagnetic sensor/mission network and marines with janitor considering as one type.
Named investment (stoped)
  1. You, as person, declare your join to project by ingame mail to executor. However, enuff create private contract to executor and call it Named investment.
  2. In any period of project, you give component kit (pricelist) to executor by contract. Its highly recommend to build structure components of this kit yourself. Numbers of this kits is unlimited and can acquire status of Part investment. However, if you reach part investment status, by givin 200 named investment kits, then you will be have 2 votes in part investment.
  3. When project will be done:
    a) Name of your character (not violating in game rules), which give minimum 1 component kit, will be inscribed to UPK biography of anchored or his wreck. Developer announce that wreck of first UPK will be immortalized in game. However, there is no yet information about enable bio tab on wreck and it must be wreck of already anchored, anchoring or transported UPK.
    b) Each next kit will give you possibility to type text in bio, 1 kit = 1 symbol (space included), in any language and any content (which not violate in game rules). However, there is no information about symbol volume of bio tab, but we ask to increase it if not enough.
    с) Your name will be mentioned in periodical reports.
  4. If you cancel your join by in game mail:
    a) Ask to return your kit, which executor keep. But you must pay penalty by none component part of your kit.
    b) Your in game name not will be added to UPK or his wreck bio, but its stay in reports.
  5. If project will be end untill goal, then you ask to return your kit, which executor keep and expect penalty payment from executor, which will be equal part of project budget. So, if your part equal 1% of goal, then you get 1% of budget as penalty payment.
  6. You can transmit kit by contract on Jita IV - Moon 4 - Caldari Navy Assembly Plant or The Sanctuary Fullerene Loom in Thera.
  7. Any changes of this part investment will be discuss with participants.

*every 10st named kit will be compensed to investor in isk depends on price.

Alternative:
If you wanna join as named investor, but dont have abilities to build/collect named kit, then i offer you:

  1. Check actual price of named kit, add 0.5 billion isk to that price and send it to executor. After that executor send you mail about accept or deni your involvement.
  2. After payment, you become a participant of namedl investment.
First year report:

Finances:
Main goal of this period is components BPO researching, finished by 80%.

Also, project have more then 1000 BPC on structure components, different quality, for small manufacturing operations. Officialy project have 0 components in balance.
For researching infrastructure, which include subscription payment, character training, few POSes working and BPO buying project spent about 110 billion isk. There were several errors, which cost about 10 billions, including wrong management of characters skillpoints, to late knowledge of index for science works cost in system, error with industry interface when TQ have problems and lost of transport with POS.
Returned 1 996 000 000 isk of official donations, becouse not formulated mechanism of how say thanks. Returned 4 000 000 000 of loan.

Cost of all components: about 100 trillion isk (01.06.2017, based on Jita price). When UPK was announced (29.04.2016), all components cost more then 200 trillions. Estimated minimum cost of components manufacturing: about 80 trillions (01.06.2017) Cost of components can little reduce when moon mining will be deployed.
Developer decrease runs number of UPK BPC from 2 to 1.
