One day you log onto EVE and Jita is now a 0.4 sec zone, and they did it in the middle of the day on a Saturday. Would be the funniest **** ever, or they should do it on Tuesday April 1st.

Good thread, everyone. Thanks for coming.

I just undocked for the first time and someone challenged me to a duel. Wat do?

19.08.2014 - Dinsdale gets slammed by CCP Falcon. Never forget.

What if this thread wasn't stupid and didn't get locked.

Guess we'll never know.

As a doomsday prepper who stockpiled a years worth of ships, from my deep space bunker I can laugh at all the unprepared sheeple from who put their faith in CONCORD always being around to protect them.

This has been done for a single day on a larger scale. Concord had a day off, making all of eve lawless for a day.

Minmatar invaded Amarr, Jamyl shows up and blasts the Elder fleet into pieces with a single shot.

Caldari invaded Gallente, taking Caldari Prime.

Meanwhile, Jita Market crashed to a standstill for a single day, in fact market activity halted for a single day as pirates shoot anything that moves and doesn't fight back. This event , 24H without Concord was a powerful enough sign that Concord was needed to sustain a viable EvE Online.

Quality thread! Never not drunk/shitpost!
Better yet, Jita is now a wormhole system! Only statics are now permanently spawning in VFK and HED-GP.

I love these "what if" threads. It's a grab bag of entertainment. This one wasn't completely garbage, which was a surprise. The title is even spelled right.

See Bio for isk doubling rules. If you didn't read bio, chances are you funded those who did.

Wait, was this a roleplay thing or was CONCORD actually disabled as a game mechanic for an entire day? I must have missed that, got any more info about how that went down or was announced?

Well it was a little twist. Due to the massive patch and the very long downtime required to syncrhonize everything (was the expansion that brought FW) CCp thought it would be fun to make people login to the test server for a day instead of the normal server (No special/separate build required, just had to login like usual, but then game took you to Sisis instead of TQ main servers (that were still under maintenance) However on the testerver all security of the systems was set to 0.0, even Jita and the like!
Much chaos was to be had (and alot of whining of people who STILL missed it thinking they had logged on TQ)

Info about it by CCP themselves: A new Armageddon day!

If jita became a 0.4

Cyno in some capitals and dock them

Profit.

Oh, I perfectly understand, Hal Morsh — a mission like this requires courage, skill, and heroism… qualities you are clearly lacking. Have you forgotten you're one of the bloody immortals!?

I'd make many contracts to black frog to jump all of my stuff 1j out of jita, then i'd make lots of red frog contracts to jump my stuff to amarr, or which ever new hub replaces jita.
