So let me get this straight.

The forces of good fleet meets up in Sarum Prime at 18:30.
Meantime, CCP has announced in a forces of evil post that asshats can hammer empires at 18:50 in Utopia or MD-.

Sounds like the lambs are being led to the slaughter.
I am reasonably certain that PL and CFC will have moved their supercaps into those systems and logged them off at POS's, long before CCP cyno-jams the systems.

yes that is an issue I suspect, unless CCP plans to lead both of us to clash at some system between the staging systems for good and evil. Either that or they'll bring out some NPC capitals to support us.

ok fine the supporters of established sovereign governments verse supporters of alternative groups that represent alternative power/social structures/making lots of money.

Is that better?

Is there any idea of who the pirate factions will be from CCP other than that first speculation post? I hate them all but sansha xD
I don't want to shoot empire on behalf of anyone else, but I definitely don't wanna shoot sansha on behalf of Empire :(
(Completely ignore the hordes of CONCORD LP I have from incursions - they don't count, that was on behalf of money xD)

One of the pirate systems is Angel Cartel home system i think, so that's one faction.
The other system is in Syndicate, but the Intaki Syndicate is supposed to be more like a gray market than a pirate faction, so i think you wouldn't be flying for them against the empires, more likely for Serpentis or Guristas in the north.

My guess is either:
1) The event consists of highsecers getting their ships blown up in null, and then they introduce something like Pirate Faction Incursions now that the pirate factions counterattack.
2) The event consists of bringing people to a supposed battle in nullsec but in reality just as the battle starts CCP drops a third force on everybody while cackling madly.

Well, looks like a lot of people are shut out.
I am one of 100 plus (edit....make that 200) on the Amarr side of Sarum Prime. and the gate is locked, and friends inside Sarum Prime say there are approx 1300 inside.

And this is at 18:05.

Given that there are 2 null sec areas, and apparently Meves also, this is going to be TiDi hell.
Good luck all who have managed to get into Sarum.

Attention mass of people in Sarum Prime. We kindly ask you start trickling over to Ihal for the event. #eveonline #tweetfleet

This is a little dysfunctional and should've been organized better.

I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week.

No fleet reps in Sarum Prime? Why even advertise this as a "staging point" if you are not going to use it?

It gets better. The high sec fleet that is heading to Utopia won't even make it as the null sec fleet is waiting for them at Doril.
Most of the people that gathered in high sec for this event won't even make it.

This is a giant troll by CCP to give null sec players more epeen and kills, nothing more.

We're all gathering at the Mifrata gate. Apparently they've got it camped with Nagas sniping anyone that jumps through.

This doesn't surprise me. We've had spies spamming non-stop trying to get people to jump through the Mifrata gate. Right now there's only 600 or so ships that have arrived.

CCP Fozzie just told everyone to go 20 jumps at 10% TiDi. I'm over it. I don't even care. That's like 3-4 hours of travel. WTF CCP can't you math? Real let down. /disappointed

Clusterf**k doesn't even begin to describe this. We're @ 10% TiDi with 4 jumps to our destination. This should be good...
