Most of us have heard of the large Null-sec coalitions and how they are pretty much at a stalemate.
I propose we bring some action to Null-sec!
Enter the Compuserve Blob; Think HAL 9000 or Skynet meets Eve Online.

Compuserve Blob Logo

Imagine a large invasion from Jovian space into SOV space...

Powered by the biggest cluster of obsolete hardware ever gathered by man, donated by capsuleers all across New Eden.

The Heart
Providing the number crunching power needed for the blob and, sporting beige... the preferred livery of the Compuserve fleet.

It's brain, the latest in CCP's Sleeper AI.

The Brain
Coordinating small tactical decisions in mining, production, research and combat Ops with the large strategic thinking to expand ever more...
Featuring new sentient Sleeper AI that thinks and learns with every engagement.

Located in CCP's Top Secret Headquarters somewhere in Iceland...

CCP Headquarters
(Grandagarður 8, 101 Reykjavik, Iceland)

This would give a good reason for forming large coalitions and, will provide new challenges for capsuleers across New Eden. This will also provide a new enemy for CONCORD and the Factions to fight. As not even Empire space is safe from the Compuserve blob !

Do you know the sad truth about why 0.0 is so stagnant today? It's because wars are expensive and ginormous wars (such as CFC vs the rest) are very expensive. This leads to:

It's not worth spending all that money on a war you might not even win
Why fight a war when the prize for victory is having no more enemies to fight at all!?
Basically the risk vs reward for a giant 0.0 war is so pathetically bad that it's never going to happen
