Just keep that **** - you will be back in a year or so.

That way you can resist hating yourself.

You earned it - you keep it. You are an isk sink - very honourable.

I'd use it to fund an exclusively Barge/Exhumer PVP corp. Just for ***** and giggles you know, this game is too damn serious.

Thanks for letting me dream Smile

Well, from time to time i did my own charity run in the eve help channel by getting rid of excess mods instead of just filling up buy orders. To have some fun i didn't gave them away randomly, i made a game out of it. I asked EVE related easy question like tell me the main difference between Shield and Armor Tank and the first one with the correct answer got the price.
Maybe that is something for you, if you make the price 1b each you can ask 20 tougher questions (500m for 40 questions etc.) and make some newbs happy. You may have to check with the ISD guys in the help channel as they asked me to stop my little games in the official help channel. I made my own rules who are eligible for my prices, characters older than 2month won't get anything. (Sure alts could sneak in but i didn't care)
The newbs were really excited about the gifts even if those were worth only some couple millions.

So maybe thats an option for you to get rid of the 20b in a quick and fashionable way yourself and make some peeps happy.

I would use the ISK to start a second account, from there on i would purchase a pure industry/rorqual character and use the rorqual to jump materials/trade goods from 0.0 back to Jita and vise versa. Running this myself would be a great benefit as i would not have to rely on others to do the jobs i wish to do on my own. With the extra isk i would start a quick buy faction gear shop similar to cores two however this would be located within the NC (yummy gear).

I won't say im desperate for the isk, however i really do want it. The isk would go to good use, help build a stable business and keep a stable flow of in-game isk to do what i want to do in eve. Everything. I love this game, and ISK is a major factor holding me back from doing a lot of things i want to do in this game. I want to be able to make over a billion isk a month so that i can continue playing without paying for 2 accounts and still have isk left over to enjoy it. Having fun pvping with friends and having fun building a business and making isk. But it takes isk to make isk.

Thanks for reading,
Brandon Tsero

P.S. Good luck in all your future endeavors and adventures. If you ever wish to return, your charity will have an equally great reward. Fly safe my friend.. Well not.... too safe. Cool

All these people pitching these charity ideas to try and win! LOL, what a bunch of bullshit ... I'll be honest 1.Buy an Aeon holding character 2. Buy a whole bunch of Talos/Cynnabals/Brutix/Taranis for the PVP video I'm working on with my main as well as one Goldscoldblood-officer fit vindicator for the video finale. I might also hire someone to follow me around in a falcon with a full set of caldari jammers, so any time a falcon uncloaks and ruins my solo fun, my own personal falcon-jammer can uncloak and nullify him, that'd see alot of tears...

Damn nature, you scary!

I would pick random newbies and give them 100M to start playing eve...... More isks = more fun playing EVE = more players = more fun playing EVE. This way we all win cuz of your isks.....

Simple concept !

LOL! What a bunch of lying barstewards! Please mister, I want the isk to set up a kitten knitting service so I can save lonely grannies, if there is anything left over I might use it to buy ice cream for disabled children. You guys suck.

Eve is about greedy, nasty people. I'd like the money to set up some merc contracts to murder some people who annoyed me - oh, and if there's anything left over I'll spend it on something pointlessly expensive for ME, then I'll sit in my chair stroking a cat and chuckling like a maniac.

I have to consider the possibility that someone may lie to me about there intentions for using the ISK on offer Lol

However, it would almost be fitting that the person i choose ends up being a goon alt and blows the lot.....

I would also caution anyone wanting the ISK that it can change your game for good or bad. I remember saving for weeks for my first battleship, nearly collapsing on the spot when i lost it thinking i would never get another one.
When replacing carriers or dreads no longer actually means all that much, then alot of the thrill can also leave the game. I personally think making ISK is far too easy.

But i really have no plans to return, and someone will get this ISK next Friday.

So keep the ideas coming, they are as diverse as expected, and it really is open to anyone or group of players. I don't much care if its for the benefit of yourself or others. I just would like to think i changed someones game for them before i leave.

If I were to get the ISK I would use it to increase our corps BPO library. We have most sub-cruiser BPO's but as our corpies grow and start to fly larger ships it's harder for us to give them cheaper BPO's or to lower their cost on BPC's or just have easier access w/o having to fly to Jita or other market hubs or spend their own ISK on a BPO.

We already are working on getting more BPO's but it takes while to get the billions needed for BS or cap component BPO's.

It would be helpful in that I could skip over several initial stepping stones on my course to total domination of New Eden. That said, Vaerah Vahrokha's Emergency Relief Initiative is probably the truly best thing you could do with the ISK.




well look like there is a winner already chossen, I and most of the other player to posted never had a chance.
but its to be expected becuase this is eve where you have to know many players to get ahead in this game.
but farewell hope your real life gets better. and a congrats to the poster of ]Vaerah Vahrokha's Emergency Relief Initiative.

Already have 5-6 Billion, so the extra 20 will go towards something I have been wanting to Try.....Low Sec/Null Sec moon mining. Talk about an Iskie sucking endevor. 6.5 Billion just for the Jump Freighter. But its a small corp and we will get their enventualy anyways so your 20 would only move things alaong a little faster. And yes would probably buy a BPO or two and the rest of my faction fit Mach.

So yes selfish maybe, but at least I aint blowing happy smoke up your butt with stories of helping the homeless.

This will change the way we play eve right now and we will continue to have fun either way. Have a blast with the give-away last Hurrah!!!!!

I would use the isk to get myself a better toon, i.e. a tengu or bs pilot with really good skills, also I would pay back some loans that my corp mates hooked me up with, other than that I would help out some of the newer people in my corp with some ships and skillbooks so they can join in on the pew-pewing

It wouldn't really change the way I play, it's only 20b.

I would just spend it on minerals and maybe a jump freighter to make logistics easier.

I would use it in the same way I use my money already only on a much better scale :3 It would be split between something I like to call Jita Games, and super frigate roams!

Jita Games are where I buy deadspace mods and make people in Jita compete to win them by doing simple tasks like racing to the Jita monument or scanning down my Badger to find the can I jetisoned or sometimes just dropping them above the 4/4 station and seeing who gets there first. But with more money comes the chance for better more fun activities and better prizes! I've always wanted to try a capture the flag game in EVE where there are two teams of cruisers fitted with tractors, webs, ABs and ECM. Then you jetison a can and let them try to tractor the can back to their side of an area :3 I have no idea if this would work but I think it would! Might have to add a few rules. The only problem is to get enough people interested you need better prizes than 10m ISK deadspace passive hardeners.

Super frigate roams are where you buy as many frigates as you can fit into a freighter and ship them off to right next to 0.4. Hand them out to anyone who shows up and go on a suicide charge into 0.0! o_O Maybe with more money can do it in BCs >_> not as fun as Jita games but still good!

If elected, I promise to.....

Haha, no, but really, yes I would spend some on myself, (just being honest), I'd like to get some pricey skillbooks, and invest some, but I also think I'd like to spend some time helping noobs in noob channels, and encourage people to keep playing. I as well freaked out at my first bs loss, but didn't quit. I'd like to see more people stay after their trials. Its supposed to be a hard game I know, but helping out a few noobs could be a boost, albeit probly minor in the big scheme. Id also like to go gank some noobs in low, then give them isk and talk to them, and tell them they learned a valueble lesson, (teach a man how to fish etc). I once was ganked in low by a guy when I didn't have a clue, and after talking w him, he gave me like a mill, which was to me a fortune at that time, and it really made me appreciate the lesson. Id also like to get my brother back into the game by kickstarting his old account, as I have no rl friends to play with. Playing w rl friends in games always makes it so much better.

I'm mostly a jerk and a troll, even in rl, but I really do love the game and want to see it keep moving forward.

So there, a varied and assorted set of purposes that, together, I think would have a positive effect, for me, my brother, and strangers as well.

Also, you'll be back ;)
