well in our CQ would be nice with some xmas deco in general, tinsel,

T3's need to be versatile so no rigs are necessary ... they should not have OP dps and tank

ABC's should be T2, remove drone assist, separate HAM's and Torps range, -3 HS for droneboats

problem, unlike games that cater almost exclusively to western audiences (see 90% of MMOs released), EVE is multinational/cultural, taking a stance and saying "we support christmas" would make other cultures feel left out/marginalized

either add in EVERY holiday/season (which would make the game gimmicky and horrible), or just dont and give out free presents around Yule Lad Hunting Season

Classic lib.

If you are offended by Christmas, whether you celebrate it or not, you are nuts.

I am not offended by other cultures celebrating their holidays because I am a sane human being.

Make one out of mobile depots and mobile tractor units, then shoot them with fireworks for lighting.

If you don't follow the rules, neither will I.

im just saying, EVE is a multinational game, chocie of downtime is alrady catering to specific nationalities as it is, so if were going to do holidays, lets just keep them to icelandic ones, in in icelandic fashion, that way no one can call foul

CCP already supports Christmas. Have you not been here that long? Maybe you don't remember the Yule Lads and Santa before that. Christmas isn't even a Christian-only holiday anymore; you don't have to believe in baby jesus to believe in Santa Claus, commercialized materialism and eating ten pounds of roasted meat.

My ridicule, heavy criticism and general pale outlook about your or CCP's ideas is nothing but an encouragement to prove me wrong. Give it a try.

Now, we know this is true, but I want to see a bunch of confused Icelandics do a Hanukkah/Festivus/Kwanza week to see what happens.

If there will be celebration of every holiday/season/xmass etc event, Eve will be burried under decorations, but....presents every few days...hell yeah! :-P
