Expressions of interest: Post-Hyperion Incursion gank competition

Edit: It's happening: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=366607 is the event thread.

I'm putting up around 5500m in prizes (it's possible that not quite all of them will be awarded, as one prize is fairly unlikely to be won, but that's only two battleships), and we've had another 1550m pledged from others.


If you've followed the Hyperion changes, you'll see the incursion grinders look to be getting some major buffs in the expansion, particularly increased up-time of highsec incursions. Killing the Mothership will respawn the incursion in about 24 hours, rather than the much slower respawn now. So unless three Motherships are popped inside a day, there will always be highsec incursions active.

Obviously, this will encourage more characters to grind incursions rather than engage in conflict-driving ISK-generation activities. And it's that conflict that makes EVE worth playing.




I'm seeking expressions of interest in a ganking contest, targetting PVE boats and support ships (such as haulers, off-grid boosters, etc) in any highsec system where an incursion is in process.

If you'd be interested in participating, x up in this thread. If you'd be interested in providing support to run the contest, post what you can do here. If you'd be interested in contributing prizes, mention what you'd be willing to offer here. (Do not send me prizes - I will have a third party hold any prizes over a billion, and that third party will be one acceptable to everyone putting up prizes in that range).

If there's sufficient interest, I will put up a few billion worth of prizes.


Current prize pool:
The distribution will be announced before the event starts.

10 Rattlesnakes (Donated by myself)
1 PLEX + 315 ISK (Donated by Anal Canal)
1 PLEX (Donated by DJEntropy of CODE.)

*release from the New Order diplomatic desk*

We like and support this idea. More details to come soon, as well as many New Order contests and chances for new and old players to take part in emergent gameplay and create content for others to enjoy.

This is going to be amazing.

By support do you mean prizes? I don't want your role playing rhetoric. I WANT PRIZES! These things always have prizes.

It will only be as amazing as the prizes you put up.

Will there be any extra bonuses given to players that use a Hyperion to gank Hyperions in the Hyperion expansion?

Maybe like a medal titled "Hyperception"

I was hunting for sick loot, but all I could get my hands on were 50 corpses[:|]..............[:=d]

Oh. My. God. If you do that, and no one else offers it, contact me and I'll make a medal and bring you into Maniacal Laughter (which is in Code) to give it to you.

Blast, we missed the opportunity to use a Kronos to gank a Kronos during Kronos.

OK folks, this is enough interest.

Details to come, but I will make this happen.

I'm contributing ten pirate faction battleships to the prizes. Details TBA.

Currently I'm planning to put up ten (10) Rattlesnake hulls, and DJEntropy is putting up one (1) PLEX.

I'll type up a detailed thread soon with info on what the prizes will be for.
