Hi Sugar -

In response to Angrod Losshelin running for the CSM with a platform that includes "Multiboxer Representation" what do you feel about the current voting mechanics?

Should the voting mechanics be restricted to one vote per person? If owning another account is enough justification to earn an individual another vote towards the CSM, would you support allowing another vote to those who use multi-character training on a single account?

Thanks in advance.


I am comfortable with the current voting mechanics. They are not perfect. And it leaves loopholes because they can use the same ISK or income to open another account and gain another vote instead of dual training and only keeping the one vote. I do not believe that giving each actively training character on an account an individual vote would do anything more than fluff vote numbers.

There are advantages to organized players who coordinate their votes. I’d like to see one vote per player but until CCP has a method to consistently separate the player behind the accounts from the accounts restrictions have to be absolutely consistent as not to cut any player off or decrease their access to representation.

Hey Sugar!

Very glad to see you continuing to support the player community by running for CSMX. Sugar, Corbexx, and the rest of the CSM9 delegates this past year have done an amazing job of communicating with the playerbase and developers, maintaining transparency, keeping solid and open dialogue, and keeping everyone informed of continued progress. Although they have individually moved to champion their constituency, I continue to see them overlap, support, and participate with one another to great success. Very excited to see many continue to push forward toward CSMX.

It was also a pleasure to meet with Sugar at Eve Vegas. CCP Manifest introduced us this past year, and her and I spent some time talking about the CSM and their methods, planning, and execution. I was absolutely impressed with her drive and ambition as a delegate. Sugar deserves the highest recommendations for her continued representation as a delegate on CSMX!

Best of luck, and if you need anything, never hesitate to ask :)

They always say "Sugar" is bad for you. I think you have proved them wrong as CSM 9. You are on my vote list. Smile

I will be voting for you. I have seen the work you have put in heard other CSM members talk about your hard work. I like that and I believe you will continue to work hard for us.

I'm glad to see you're running again. I've been impressed with the work you've been doing so far, especially the communication with the community at large.

You absolutely have my vote.

I do not like it. I acknowledge when communication lapses like this happen. I then do my best to deal with the situation.

To quote myself from my Weekly CSM9 Update on October 5th, 2014:

Quote:
“Low Sec Doomsdays were a complete surprise for me. I also quickly realized that I needed input about them because I have no experience with them. I’ve been running around and again, that has so far been a very divided topic in terms of good and bad. I’d like more feedback on this.”


Ideally, I’d like some time to think. I may have an immediate reaction but some things crop up after pondering the topic. With something like Doomsdays it is hard to gather player reaction and feedback before it becomes public. For this particular topic, I needed to sit down with experienced pilots who know the mechanics of Doomsdays and ideally, people who were around when Doomsdays could be used before. That made the 24 hour notice for this mechanic useful. I was able to go to the public and ask for feedback and work on it. At the end of the day, I’d prefer to have more advanced warning, always.

Both you and DJ Funkybacon got many votes from primarly the lo-sec part of new eden, plus the votes that trickle down through Single Transferable Vote (STV).

From Funky's show and lack of updates on his blog site plus this controversy from a (former) top tier CCP dev,

I get the feeling CCP games as a company is finding the CSM's opinion less valuable.

Is this due to perhaps the CSM 9:

  • not speaking as a combined front like with the CSM 8
  • or the lack of CSM officers in the CSM 9
  • or CCP reverting back to the bad old days ?

I feel that my opinion is valuable. I would not stand for a second election if I did not.

Each individual on the CSM is responsible for their choices, effort, and the work they put into the position. We are seen as individuals, not as a single entity. Having officers did not decrease or increase anyone's potential as a member.

I do not believe that CCP is reverting back to bad old days. The new cycle is bringing new challenges. The members of the CSM must develop habits and behaviors to meet them. They put out the energy make sure that the players are represented.

I don't think anyone deserves another seat in the CSM as much as Sugar Kyle.

I wanted to know your thoughts on combat boosters and if you had any ideas on how to improve them. Would you be willing to have CCP take another look at them or do you feel they're mostly fine as they are?

So long as you support the upcoming Nerf to supers and carriers as a result of a alleged, completely false exploit, and are towing the line of of spreading Bull #$# instead of the truth, you have lost any credibility and reason that we should support you, and as such, I encourage others to vote you OUT.

Or you could try using evidence to convince her to change her mind instead of throwing a tantrum and making idiotic threats, shocking I know but not everybody in EvE thinks being a dumb ass drama queen is the way to get what they want.

As for you Sugar, +1 Vote from me as you've already shown yourself to be a decent and effective representative of the players.

I can't believe I haven't done this yet.

There could literally be no better way to spend your vote than to vote for Sugar Kyle, especially if you live in lowsec. The most hard-working, dedicated, intelligent and enthusiastic CSM member I have ever come across. Vote Sugar Kyle for CSMX or have your head checked for brain damage.
