Goonswarm has decided that in light of all the pubbie tears, that Hulkageddon will continue on forever. They will continue to pay 100mil per 10 exhumers killed in highsec. You may now continue the tears.

When I read the title I thought this was an ad for Hulkageddon VI.
Reading OPs comments sounds will be in long development like Duke Nukem Forever.

If it's not just a scam to make you think everything is still on and extend the hulk kills for a few weeks. These are the same guys who regularly scam people in recruitment campaigns.

Agreed, but I'll only accept The Mittani as a 3rd party.

Well, it sort of is.

If you paid isk to get into GoonSwarm, you were probably scammed.  If you had the foresight to save the name of your scammer, let me know and I'll do what I can to help you.

Last I checked Hulkageddon was the work of Helicity Boson, not Goonswarm.

The bounties paid are peanuts compared to what the goons make from the inflated mineral/ice prices. After all, they can mine ore/ice in their space without much fear and have the logistics to bring their goods to high sec markets.
I think them sustaining it indefinitely is a real thing as it is sustainable for them from a business stand point. They make more from selling ice/minerals at the inflated prices than they pay out in bounties.

Granted, I have no access to their books so I have no way of verifying this, but from a business standpoint, this appears to be their angle. I could be completely wrong.









In the cat-and-mouse game that is low sec, there is no shame in learning to be a better mouse.

Hmmm, I'll bite. :)

Perhaps this is a means of diversifying their incomes in anticipation for the ring mining that may break up OTEC and reduce their raw income from tech moons. I know that the goons are aware of that change, and have already stated that they've been planning accordingly.

It could also be related to denying casual/independent players the benefits of POS ownership, given what this is doing to ice prices across the board, though this may just be a side-effect of hulkageddon.

This is nonsense. Anyone who believes this is a tool. What will happen is people will believe it, go kill 10 miners, ask the Goons for cash, the Goons won't pay up but instead will laugh because they got miners killed and simultaneously scammed the perpetrator, word will get round that the Goons don't pay up and within a week everyone will stop trying to do it.
All posts claiming cash bounties are received will be from Goon alts attempting to continue the scam.

We paid out during Hulkageddon. If we failed to pay out now the "Scam" would last all of 2 days and then get burned on the forums. That's not what we want--dead exhumers is the goal, not put-out pirates.

Not only does it pay but I was paid a substantial bonus for tagging my 10 in a short time frame. If they are okay with revealing teh amount I will as well, but if the bonus system isn't set in stone I don't want to put words in their mouths, maybe they were just feeling generous that one time.
