With Test faling, how will this impact FW and incursions?

It appears inevitable that test is about to melt away, or be swept away.

Where will the 11,000 chars go?
How many will stay in null and reform / be absorbed in other alliances?

I imagine that quite a number of test players already have fw and incursion alts, but just how many more are going to be joining / competing?

Null sec players who have been living on engorged income streams are not going to want to go back to level 4 missions.

Would be cool to see goons fail along with test Twisted

Is this presumption akin to the "Eve is dying" rumor? Sorry, I've been away ... as I thought EvE was dying.

But they won't have to worry about us covert-hotdropping them. And then make full use of say CONCORD and all the wonderful safety mechanisms and NPC protections afforded (not like you pay for em) to you in HIGHSEC.

It's ~only~ grinding sov in a region or two, I mean that's small fries to Boat. Who I am sure eats a lot of fries.

Eat all the fries, grind all the sov.

I expect to see a sort of rolling flashmob congo line of noobships. Perhaps CCP will even set it up so that when an xTest char logs in he is immediately jumped to the "congo" system.

These fleets will probable number between one and three thousand xTest pilots at any given time. They will have all kinds of new options in this configuration; they can force any tradehub into 10% TiDi at any time, or gank anything with sheer weight of numbers--> miners, missioners, freighters etc. Or perhaps they will actually wardec various corps and destroy the POS's with the noob fleet.

They will be as a swarm of locust at the end of days, devouring all and heralding the end of farming in Eve.

Test is failing? says who? They haven't lost any space yet plus i dont see them cutting and running like some alliances would, yes they may lose delve but collapsing, i doubt that.

Pretty sure that they're still going to be a LOT richer than highsec pubbies through savings alone.
I've never met anyone poor from nullsec, and I'd say that about 50% have a super alt and 20-30% a titan alt, of those I have spoken to.

Clearly you jest. According to the nullbear propaganda machine, there is no income in nullsec at all.

TEST will be very happy with L4's and mining in the land of milk and honey that is High-Sec. Maybe they can even do some of the new fancy exploration too.

Nobody says that.

The collapse of CFC and dissolution of Goonswarm would be enough motivation for many hisec carebears to try out life in nullsec. Right up until they realise that CFC & HBC weren't the only game in town, just the noisiest English-speaking ones.

You seem confused. How will losing our Sov destroy TEST.... The Nullbears (Yes, I too can use weird words) will run, the core members will laugh, and go back to having fun.

The tears were funny when they did go into high sec for Hulkageddon and all those other dastardly things they managed to do in high sec. Now if they all happened to go into high sec together and caused havoc, then there will be oceans of tears here on the forums.
