So, I did a little math...

I wondered if some basic things in Eve could be answered with basic math. I found some interesting things.
Start by assigning the numbers 1 through 26 to the letters in the alphabet.
A=1, B=2, C=3, D=4, E=5, F=6, G=7, H=8, I=9, J=10, K=11, L=12, M=13, N=14, O=15, P=16, Q=17, R=18, S=19, T=20, U=21, V=22, W=23, X=24, Y=25, Z=26

The first question I asked was why so many hulks get ganked. The answer was simple - hulk killing is required and the hulk killers get way more ass.

True!
H+U+L+K+K+I+L+L+I+N+G = 126
I+S+R+E+Q+U+I+R+E+D = 126

T+H+E+H+U+L+K+K+I+L+L+E+R+S = 171
G+E+T+W+A+Y+M+O+R+E+A+S+S = 171

I am sure there are many other questions about Eve that can be answered with mathematics. I will look for more when time permits.

Although I appreciate what you've done here, you need to get way more ass

Woooow. That means absolutely nothing.

And after this patch, you're going to be killing way more macks than hulks.

Actually flying a hulk and jet caning should come with a free "Gank Me" beacon" Smile

Any spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors are because frankly, I don't care!!

I don't really buy into that whole numerology thing, yet I can't argue against your results. Straight

It does, it shows up as a Hulk on d-scan.

MINERS GET WAY MORE ASS = 249
GANKERS GET WAY MORE ASS = 246

Hmmmm. Let's do some more math.
