Howdy to all the CSM candidates. Is there any Aussie candidates out there? Specifically I would love to see the following:
Discussions around Timezone specific advertising to get more Aussie players and downtime implications.

Confirming there is an Australian candidate; Mintrolio.

I think downtime is fine where it is, despite it being at 10pm for me.

LOL!!!

True anyone in the Timezone would understand the implications of daily dt and daylight savings etc...

Sounds like it doesn't matter based on CCP discussions around changing to a weekly DT schedule.

I had the opportunity to be in the CSM when Omber Zombie was also in the CSM. I can see how having an Australian candidate would be important to players in Australia. I learned just how bad internet can be there and along with experiences with Australian members in my corp how bad the down time affected folks trying to play from there can be.

So I don't think there are any candidates from "Down Under" this election but I think this is an example of how having someone in the CSM that understands the differences in player experiences across the globe.

Hopefully next election someone like Omber Zombie will emerge again to bring the issues that players in Eve face is they live in places with unique challenges like Australia!

You, of all people, should be able to answer this correctly ...

There are 2 candidates from Australia / New Zealand - although one moonlights as a goat farmer from Kazakstan. Neither is campaigning on moving downtime and neither of them can force Testra or Telecom NZ to provide decent internet connections for real businesses in Australia / NZ. So internet spaceships stand no chance

I haven't spent any time looking at where the other candidates were from, just what they are running to support. Where they are physically located is of no interest to me. So sorry I missed that. I also am not saying I'm running on moving downtime, All I am saying is that the fact Eve is all server where you live in RL can present you with different issues and its good if folks that face those issues have representation. I also use the opportunity to recognize someone that I felt was an excellent CSM member in the past who was from Australia, Omber Zombie.

That the Australian candidates didn't seem to bother to even post here themselves seemed odd to me.

Read the complete Platform here: http://www.eve-online-dark-taboo.com/vote/

If you want your vote to count just once in EVE vote for PsychoBitch.

Sick of CCP devs and their hair-brained, half-baked, blue-balled ideas?

Sick of self-important fat puds and frail half-elves on the CSM?

Sick of things in eve that should have been fixed A G E S ago not being fixed and new errors being introduced daily?

Make your one vote count finally, vote for PsychoBitch!

If you are voting for someone who has been in the CSM before - you have wasted your vote on F A I L

Don't be a failure, be a hero. Vote for PsychoBitch now!

was this a deliberate funny? You say to vote for you if you live life on your on terms then the next line you tell us what to do.

Hell could just be drugs talking but that seemed funny as hell to me:)

Any spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors are because frankly, I don't care!!

downtime is worse for us new zealanders, and our internet is even worse than yours.
Mintrolio lives in australia i think.
