Gaining relevance.

I need to become more relevant in EVE Online. Being a Kingpin of the C&P forums and the true heir to the CSM throne is not enough for me. I need something crisp. Something fresh. Something... new.

Pitch me your ideas on how I could gain more relevance.

I was thinking about these options:

1) I could become a master PVPer and then biomass myself over some small mechanic that terribly upset me. This is what Infinity Ziona did.

2) I could forge a nullsec empire that conquers every single system.

3) I could start a bank, and then eventually run off with the ISK. Just like Haargoth.

4) I would write stories of my awesomeness in the middle of nowhere. Just like Vladimir Norkoff and his stories.

Put on a dress and dance for everyone on a livestream while singing Lady Gaga hits adapted to EVE online lyrically.

Can't tell you what to do but here is one thing to avoid:

Don't get a haircut out of a Harry Potter movie and start making videos with horrible curtains in the background.

This has potential. Bonus points of you use body paint and a wig to perfectly match your avatar's look.

So like Caesar Flickerman in The Hunger Games? Neat. I could do that.

Interesting idea. Bizarre, but interesting.

Are you talking about Xenuria? Well, I could do the same thing he is doing but with no curtains in the background! That'll surely put me on top.

While a spraypainted Titan was what was always in my head for this, you're almost famous enough to pull off a "roving trade caravan" out in null. Just load up with what alliances might need, and blag your way past gatecamps with promises of excellent trade possibilities :)

Or start your own corp, where everyone must have the same hair as you?

Or suicide bomb the Jita offramp? ...thats more "notoriety" than fame though....

I retract my previous suggestion, and suggest that you become the new Glen Beck of EVE, get a chalkboard and record yourself constructing wild conspiracy theories, doublepoints if these theories relate to the imminent second coming of Molle, Mittens and Montolio adopting children together, or Obamacare.

How about this.

You know how Mintchip betrayed Garmon after acquiring something like 180b ISK?

I could make a bunch of videos and be annoying just like Mintchip. Then I would stumble across some random master PVPer who is also a female, and then she would fall in love with me. She would send me a lot of ISK one night. At that point I would betray her.

This sounds like an excellent plan.

I think I have a clip of Iris Chacon dancing around with some pineapples in the head.

Join a loser online community like Something Awful and create your very own empire of nerd love. Don't forget to ban anyone that doesn't 'like' your every post and splash geek threads in your honor every chance they get.

I guarantee within a month people will be saying, "mitanni who?", as they stay awake all night glued to the forums so as not to miss any for your psalms of wisdom.

This would take a while. I first need to train cap skills.

You could become a racing pilot. Bitches love racing pilots.

Then when you've won a few championships, you could end your career by exploding during a race and taking three other racers along with you to the grave clone bay!

I've been noticing how kids love anything with a lowercase "i" in front of it.
We could try iPrivate or iPineapple.

Post with your monkey.
