Oh. It's "humour" with a "u". British humor is too dry for most Americans to pick up on, hence why so many people, err Americans, are probably going to take the article seriously.

Who the hell is The Mittani?

I just turned into an egg, did I level up? I spent an hour trying to salvage a wreck, when in local a guy said "Stop it, this is my Tempest, I was AFK"

The undisputed King of Nullsec.

EVE is a game about spaceships and there's an enormous amount of work to do on the in-space gameplay before players (or developers) are ready to sacrifice it for a totally new type of gameplay - CCP Rise

Very confusing. Are we talking about the same goonswarm that called renting the biggest scam in the game, and anyone would engage in it, losers?

And have they actually found someone dumb enough to rent from them?


There are no goons in 0.0, therefore there can't be anyone renting from them.

Poetic was way more entertaining when he was stalking Eve University people.

Indeed.
It is unlikely he is bound by any NDA like the CSM, (like that had any teeth anyway), and knows precisely what changes are in the pipeline.
Goons will make trillions more than they do now, at least in the short term.


Because developers never sign NDA's?


Let me get this straight.
A parting employee, with intimate knowledge of changes happening in the next 3 months, approaches some traders from his old group. He then tells them what items will be impacted with the winter release.

This trading group, who are quite bright, and very good at covering any illicit tracks, use multiple trading alts totally unaffiliated with their mains, or even known alts on the same accounts.

They quietly spread their buying selling over many accounts, gathering product they know will spike.

Now, please enlighten me how CCP would know that the parting employee broke any NDA?
Because even if CCP is tracking the trading patterns of certain products they expect to spike with the winter release, there is zero ways to trace this back to the parting employee, nor his trading corpmates.

It could have come from any person on the CSM, or any CCP employee.
And I strongly doubt CCP has a group that zealously tracks product price spikes, and then tracks the money flows that could be moved to the main accounts months later.

Quite the amusing read. Poetic Stanziel has, for a long time, been a more reliable news source than EVEN24

Uh what? I was just responding to your claim that he probably isn't bound by a NDA, which would be unusual AFAIK.

I also kinda doubt there's any useful insider speculation to be had since CCP is -

A. historically pretty bad at sticking to long-term plans
B. pretty vocal about their planned changes
C. understandably bad at predicting market impact since there are a lot of variables out of their control
