This years hulkageddon is so full of weaksauce. Seriously. There is not a system in high-sec that you don't see hulks mining in.

hulkageddon II - 1805 kills damages: 278bil

hulkageddon III - 2466 kills damages: 288bil

hulkageddon IV - 3480 kills damages: 212.8bil


just keep in mind that these hulkageddons lasted a week or 2 max and there were also less people playing during these times so this years hulkageddon should come as no surprise in my opinion.

What's with the sudden drop? Were the targets mostly cheap ships?

yeah.....only 843 exhumers and 574 mining barges were destroyed in hulkageddon 4 as opposed to the 1700 exhumers and 700 mining barges in Hulkageddon 3 apparently

This year its a huge surge they are at 994.31Bisk now. Id say before the day is out 1 trillion will have been destroyed. that more than makes up for the drop, the drop could of been due to the crappyness of incarna and people stopped played for a while or something.

Its mostly Hulks and Mackinaws being killed also

That still doesn't make sense. H4 had a thousand kills more than H3, but the value dropped?

It looks like we have made a mess!

Remember boys and girls, for the rest of the month you get paid 100million isk for every 10 killing blows!
And if you're particularly deadly, you might win some awesome prizes!

What would prevent hulkageddon to keep going until the end of the summer? december? a full year?

What if players don't want to stop it?

Some corps like goons will pay you for destroying hulks during the time, for your contribution, I dont know about other mining vessels. Doubt they give you anything if its outside the timeframe.

Boredom or running out of ISK.
Boredom, because without the special prizes and the killboard league tables, it wouldn't be as much fun. And ganking miners over and over would presumably get dull after a bit. And you should see fewer and fewer targets, so more time spent searching.
Running out of ISK, because again, presumably miners will be smart and use cheaper or better tanked fits, so you need more gank for less loot. And unless the Goonies extend their 100mill for first 10 kills program, that source of funding will dry up aswell.

A lot of you seem to forget/don't know that we've been ganking Hulks, amongst many other ships, for longer than Hulkageddon has existed.

But if you think the end of the pocket change reward is going to make this "passing fad" disappear with the wind, by all means, close your eyes and keep repeating to yourself that the bad guys can't see you anymore.

I wrote some true EVE stories! And no, they're not of the generic "my 0.0 alliance had lots of 0.0 fleets and took a lot of 0.0 space" sort. Check them out here:

A huge fleet of ice miners at Mitsolen about 3 jumps from Jita for you participating in Hulkageddon. I would burn them all down but I don't think one catalyst could do them all.
