Now let's not be hasty here, as a collector I would ask everyone to not vote for a chance. Think about it: The less people vote, the less people get "trinkets". This is good for a collector like me, rarity rises prices!

It's of course bad for everyone else, but who cares? Just don't vote and buy the trinkets off of other, stupider people to get rich! I assure you, there's nothing wrong with this logic: Let your greed consume you!

So for starters: keep pushing information to players.

Youtube video is good reminder idea,
for entire voting period there should be a baner on launcher
for god sake, introduce some sort of ingame information outlet, where You can push important stuff to players... like voting
On eve news page until today there was nothing

Dont wait to last day, keep bashing from day one to last hours of last day :)

Not gona sugest spamming our mailbox, but if you can remind me 6 times a month (3 accounts, 2 reminders each) that my plex is running out You can send that VOTING mail once a year

No. The only vote I'll ever make is with my wallet.

Change the reward (this year the shuttle BPC's) so that it is only redeemable by accounts that voted. Include in the shuttle description that it was due to voting.

This, seriously. If you're going to bribe people to vote, make sure they vote before doling out the goods. I, for one, re-subbed after the Feb 25th deadline, and now I have no limited-shuttle-BPC incentive to vote. Sad

pass, I haven't voted since the council was more like running for president and people were so willing to slander 1 another just for a free trip to Iceland.

For the next CSM voting, please consider adding a "none of the above" option for those who don't mind voting, but don't find any of the candidates represents their own views properly.

Note to self, make an alt named "None of the Above" and run for CSM next year.

I voted Shocked

Your vote in the CSM Election was anonymously registered at 2015-03-09 23:59:05.

I selected mine because they always seem to catch my attention, hopefully one of them will get the job P

p.s...

Trinkets & no cookies "gasps" Shocked


EVEBoard ...Just over 60million skill points, each skill was chosen for a reason. I closed my eyes & clicked another skill to train... "BINGO...!!!" ... "This time i got something usefull"

Voted after I found in the redeem bar the shuttle bpc and inquired in local chat on the occasion; had no idea there was a vote going on otherwise. Not sure how many people read the launcher tabs and I bet even less frequent the forums. I had some trouble picking a candidate to vote as many lacked eloquence in their speech and from those who did have it, few had their vision go beyond their personal gameplay preference.

I don't like the launcher, so I only use it to patch. If there was a notice on there, I wouldn't have seen it.



I voted because I pay attention to this stuff. Oh, and despite its flaws, it's really damn important.

Plus, I'm a career lurker in the EDU and Sugar channels... it's hard to not know an election is on when you have CSM candidates talking about it daily.

*jots down "Spam players"* Got it.

I'm kidding! :)

One of my tasks here is the monthly newsletter for EVE Online, and I try to put the schedule or other election info in there. Maybe a dedicated mail might help next election. Will look into that.

Boycott it. Ignore it. Let whatever teenybopper be the homing coming queen. Don't go to the parade.

Propaganda always helps a failing image.

The right to free speech doesn't automatically carry with it the right to be taken seriously.

Frigate holes..... Mass based spawn... Those were the most pathetic thing to come from CCP, we tried to put our opinion forward for them, and Fozzie took **** all notice.

Turns out he was right. Mass based spawn made WH PvP more interesting and although frigate holes were not very exciting, shattered holes at least made them worth checking out. They are definitely not detrimental in either case.
Spent a year almost solo in a worm hole.
These SOV changes might push me back.
I am dreading those frigate links, they ruin system access control.

I have no interest in shattered worm holes, absolutely none. Thera appears to be a bit of a flop, gate camping Worm Hole version.

EVE is becoming shallow and puerile; it will satisfy neither the veteran nor the "WoW" type crowd in the transition.

To be fair, this game intentionally appeals to people who are a bit nuts.

Sound terrifying and schizophrenic? Perhaps a little unstable? Sure it does. But come play EvE anyway! It's perfect for all of you with borderline personality disorder. We don't judge here. Do whatever you want. Be as cray-cray as you want. It's all good here.
