In the Who are These Teams thread, the following post was made.

It is just a shame that our original team name Conmen's Internet Crime Fighting Force of Mohawk Induced Goggle Wearing Awesomeness had to be shortened to this new travesty.

However it is good that the team captains have been released, but I feel more should be done to publicise this tournament. As it stands, apart from people who are just enthusiastic to watch eve tournament fights, compared to the Alliance Tournament where everyone is rooting for someone and eve politics are involved, there is little to draw people in and get them excited about this.

It would maybe have been effective to have had some sort of eve press conference a week before the tournament, where the team captains were interviewed and asked to give information about their teams.

I just feel that something needs to be done to make this more interesting for the eve community at large.


In partnership with Wunder-Bet.com, I'd like to offer teams the opportunity to participate in the New Eden Open Team Spotlight series. Team Spotlights will be 10-15 minute audio interviews held with Team Captains and will be posted on the Wunder Bet New Eden Open page. The interviews will cover several standard questions and can include whatever propaganda the Team Captain likes. Misinformation, ****-talking & all forms of gimmickry are encouraged.

If you are a Team Captain and are interested in your team having a spotlight; please contact Arydanika via Eve Mail. Interviews are done over skype & will generally last 20-30 minutes. Interviews will generally be done in late EU/ prime US TZs. I understand this is the "Zero Hour" and will try to accommodate all who want to be included.

Excellent! Now show your support by being the first team spotlight and telling the story of your original (and glorious) team name and the tragic shorting it was forced to endure.

You may contact me to arrange an interview, but I'll only proceed if you can accurately pronounce our team name.

Agreed for I have the power of a fairly balanced education in science and google to guide me. Mostly google.

I am looking for others to join me in doing these. If you're still interested, please let me know. There are a lot of teams to cover and I only have a limited window of availability.

They probably won't want to be interviewed by someone who is actually on one of the teams.

And this is why we need the team lists published.

Just finished my interview !

And as a brand new skype user, I must say that it was by far the most interesting skype call i've ever had!

It would be nice if all teams would take the time to do these interviews and help generate some publicity for our fine internet sportsmanship event !

I wouldn't mind doing one of these. You know how to find me. Though it would have to be on team speak, I don't have skype and I am not interested in ever installing it.

It was fun being interviewed. I hope some more team captains step up. Any interest generated for this tournament is a "Very Good Thing" TM for future tournaments.

I am willing to represent the captains of other teams if they wish me to do the interview for their team on their behalf.

In fact, after my interview was over I was informed it was she best interview for the New Eden Open she had ever done. That my professionalism and "in character" responses were befitting of a true paragon of the internet.
