Uncertainty principle. Observing something changes the outcome. Thus, CCP are involved anyway.

Even the PR dude from SONY said "The Goons sure know how to bring the game" and CCP did decide to roll around in that dirty pile of hay.

Surely we have not forgotten what was revealed on March 28th 2012 have we ?

Never Forgot march 28th, the time something almost happened, but not really, then was handled and now no one really cares.

If you are really concerned about it, there are alot of mom alchohol awareness clubs you can join as well.

Maybe if SoCo made propaganda that made people excited instead of embarrassed CCP would use that to get themselves ~free~ exposure.

A facebook message directing to a one sided propaganda youtube video.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNn3GDBLyFc

I think its realy on the edge. Will this be the final signal that ccp employees have too much influence in a certain 0.0 alliance (that also coincidently hold vast amount of horrible unbalanced tech moons?)



This looks like a rumour to me, and it's against forum rules Lol


I don't even think it rises to the standard of a rumor.

They should. And bonus for good music selection.

It is I, the mighty decider of Facebook/Twitter/G+ content!

This pretty much nails it. Just an awesome video. I try to highlight each well done/funny/etc etc video. If you have one that's amazing, please send it to me @CCP_Manifest or evemail.

Glad to see mention of the EVE article. There should be several going out. That's me emailing press contacts saying... check out what our players are brewing. 100% them. The videos they make are awesome etc etc. In this case I paired it with an announcement of the AT X starting.

I really try to keep it real both in terms of PR and Social Media, but surely this is exactly the sort of player action that I should be promoting, I mean, right?!

Forgotten? No. Moved on with our lives? Yes.

In the here and now we have what's shaping up to be (by some estimates) the largest multiplayer conflict in video game history. Only EVE is capable of hosting game play on such a massive and complex scale. The Mittani is but one of many figures in this conflict and he has a decentralized role. The Fanfest scandal and the FW LP Scandal have nothing to do with this.

Enjoying the rain today? ;)

You can hate Goonswarm and Honeybadgers or Test if you like

But if you can't appreciate a well-done propaganda video made for a game that we all spend way too much time obsessing about, then something may be wrong with you.

TEST dudes usually make great videos, I have watched several of them. This one is kind of mild in propaganda: SoCo is not bashed that hard, instead all the alliances fighting on that side are nicely presented in the end of the video, making it more interesting. This is the kind of video that may even get the attention of those people who have never heard of EVE, or who have thought about trying it. 50,000 characters fighting over a region? Man, that's something.

CCP would be silly if they never promoted this video. I bet if one of the SoCo alliances made a great video like this, it would be promoted too, just because of its artistic value.

It needs memorable likes like

Instead we found CTAs
Instead we found batphones

I actually looked at that for a while and was thinking.

That was the fanfest thing. And we beat up Tenal.
A month later was the Burn Jita, then hulkageddon. At some point we burned Venal. And OTEC.

And then not much and some people from the south bashed their heads again OTEC.
And now we're in Delve fighting. Good stuff.

Video should have shown a total break down in number of pilots on each side.

I would like to know myself. I think the numbers are fairly even in characters, active accounts hard to say.

But in any case, morale is the thing, and we'll see how well stuff turns out, if there's a rout, failcascade, "didn't want that XXYY anyway" or a hardcore meatgrinder.

Or, you know, PL dropping titans on things. Oh maybe I should fit a cyno on ... will it go on my scorpion? Just in case, you know, the FC wants to batphone a supercapital fleet.

There a sweet kill board (that is easy on the eyes) for people to F5 that gives some perspective on the war? Maybe a section that includes who is on which side, numbers and dropped corps and pilots? Maybe even an up to date map that shows the spread of influence on Delve of one side vs. the other? All wrapped up in some nifty one stop shop for all your Delve War pleasure needs?

Sorry, crap ton of work and all, but thought it would be a nice touch for all to follow without having to listen to back and forth purse slapping on the forums. Big smile

Maybe SoCo would get more publicity if they actually undocked for once...
