Lol, good luck with that. Let us know when you run out of money Lol


Conservatively, 7 billion ISK per month per tech moon.

At the current rate, we could pay gankers indefinitely with the income from two and a half tech moons.

lol I shall continue mining, like I did through Hulkageddon, not caring about you guys. Thx for the increase in my wallet though.
Decreasing the population of miners in high sec by that much has made me bank
Far more than the covetor I fly costs lol

So, here is the events thus far.

Goon Ceo hosts fun event.

Goons have fun. Miners cry that goons having fun is narcissim.

Goon Ceo decides that fun should not be restricted to goons. All of eve should be allowed to have fun.

Lots of people have fun, both goon and non-goon. Miners cry that goons sharing fun is narcissim.

Goon Ceo sees people having fun, looks at funds, and decides fun should continue.

Lots of people have fun, both goon and non-goon. Miners cry that anyone having any fun is narcissim.

I fully support Hulkageddon, but why not be honest about why you're supporting it. It's because of the bucketloads of ISK you make off the manufacture and sale of 99% of all new Hulks, and not because you "support emergent gameplay". Call a spade a spade and be done with it.

You are quite welcome my young friend! Please remember to be vigilant against gankers, and never, ever forget: If you bot, we will find you and we will made sweet love to your capsule with 1200mm Artillery rounds.

I don't care, I don't mine in expensive paperships.

And the fanboi's hopping on board of the ganktrain never understood the whole idea of Goonswarms reasoning to support Hulkageddon anyways.
You kill 10 hulks and get 100 mill. Very nice. Now imagine where all the tech comes from to replace those hulks. And who cashes in on that.
So hop on the bandwagon and generate the Goons even more Isk.

I will just go battleship mining and actually hope that at some point everyone does.
Gonna be an interesting time as soon as nobody wants to mine Ice anymore due to the frailty of the miningships in the first place.

Beavis has spoken and the Buttheads will do his bidding.

Sssht dont ruin the plot. The victims just keep on buying new exhumers thinking those are the best ships to mine in .. really.

100mil for every 10 ganks, and you make what 30 billion on the resupply of hulks

Hulkageddon ... The most successful scam in Eve

No, that's OTEC. This is emergent gameplay, and completely unrelated.

Happy accident, though. :)

Once again the Goons prove they are not only the sole group willing to sculpt EVE in their image, but actually have the ability to do it.

I'd like to see not only Jita burn, but all the other trade hubs. Perhaps that will pump a little more life in the game. People having to move from trade hub to trade hub or risk losing everything.

Once again, the Goons win EVE. As a wise yet rather obese russian once said. "KEEP CRYING BABIES!"

Imagine that- making the game engaging and full of excitement and danger! Less of an afk spreadsheet in space snoozefest!

one day of ratting taxes from theta could probably fund hulk ganking for a month. no need to use our precious tech money

Yup, that's quite true and i am all for your suggestions aswell. Thing is though that the puppetmasters themselves wont ever be a victim of emergent gameplay ever. Very doubtfull some entity like GSF comes along and sets up a counterblock.
So eventually here we are, everyone hanging at the the end of the strings of the puppetmasters.

Good show, nicely done. Congratulations to your organisation. Big smile

I fully support the actions of my CEO! Hulkaggeddon is good for everyone, including miners. We are freeing them from the crushing boredom of mining in high sec, hopefully spurring their movement to better parts of Eve.
