Idiot.

You realize you put the wrong part of that sentence in bold, right?

free logistical intell for you Goons.

Sell all your technetium at 70K P/U
Once the nerf comes out (we know it will) you can have a bunch of worthless Technetium or you can have a bunch of ISK to buy the now worthless Technetium. Aside from reactor units, fullerides aren't in demand. There is too much technetium in EVE now. It will only get worse with ring mining.


You actually think that anyone has piles of tech laying around? OTEC isn't reducing supply to raise prices, it's just removing price competition between the major suppliers and raising the price they were selling at a bit. Tech IS the main bottleneck for most T2 production, and no one is dumb enough to stockpile it beyond having supplies that just haven't sold yet or minor stockpiles for logistical purposes if they're doing reactions or other production - EVERYONE has been expecting a nerf to tech since the moon rebalance, it's not a good investment to stockpile. Thing is, tech was a bottleneck for T2 when that went in, and there aren't more tech moons now but there are more people playing, so there certainly isn't surplus tech around.

Oh, and ring mining? If that's all that's done, tech prices will fall, but all the other moon goo will likely end up below the price of fuel to mine it, leaving the tech regions as the only ones remotely worth anything from moon standpoint. And that's assuming that ring mining ignores regional moon distribution - a logical assumption, but not one I'd feel safe making till we see it in action.

That would suit goons more than everyone else. Rifter swarm would be way way more dangerous.

You do realise that Goons would just win again, only quicker this time?

Actually that sounds good, the teary-eyed blubbering of slack jawed pubbies trying to rationalize how the dumb Goonies in Rifters managed to shaft them twice over would be utterly, utterly glorious.

Heh.

We could hold lotteries and stuff to guess which Corps or Alliances develop things first like a huge weird game of Civ or something ! Lol

Someone put in the time and effort and basically won at EVE but it wasn't me therefore CCP must remove the fruits of their labour from them.

Seems reasonable.


NAPTRAINS != effort

Beside rules were biased - technetium redistribution.
Why tech inst available across universe and then try again at winning.



Same reason it's so valuable... if diamonds were shat out by squirrels they wouldn't be sought after or at all valuable


No, technetium could be as valuable but was redistributed accros universe not just in few regions


Greetings

Once again communism rears its ugly head in the forums. Some people just don't get it ...

I realize that some players will never be proactive content drivers, but as a thought exerciser, put yourself on the side of the Alliances that worked very hard creating an environment that (through a massive amount of organization and effort) put themselves and their allies in a position to succeed at a fundamental tenant of the game, galaxy domination. Now from that vantage point reread your post and reflect.

Admit it now, you would tell yourself to suck it and HTFU...be honest

Bet on Goons. We're really bloody dumb. But despite this we're still better at this game than everyone else. This is why they're all so mad.

Heh.

Yes, because you can snap your fingers and instantly have a full jump bridge network for free, that's maintained and fuelled by the magical pixies that do all of the logistical work keeping the alliance running.

I think we found all our tech moons down the back of the sofa.

Seriously, we don't even know what.

When the game designers create an environment where one single resource is vastly more valuable than everything else in the game, then concentrate that resource almost entirely in one geographical region what other outcome could there possibly be?
