Schedule link only shows the fan fest logo no other information. Source code has the info but its not building correctly for me in Explorer. If this happens for a lot of people will there be another location for the straight PDF version?

If i dont know something about EVE. I check https://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/ISK_The_Guide

See you around the universe.

With Salpun; a quick and easy PDF version would be lovely, so that I can have a few pages printed out to plot on/doodle on while en route. Mind, I'll also check out the app in the meantime.

On Wednesday 8pm there is a football match taking place between the devs and our players. Who has the most stamina and the best team play? You can find out more in this blog and if you want to come spectate there will be a bus from the CCP office at 7pm on Thursday.


Hint: The match is on Tuesday.

From this devblog:
Quote:
Not only is there pride and glory at stake, if your server wins and you are online at the time, you will receive an exclusive ship that will never be given to the other server.


From the original Worlds Collide devblog:
Quote:
The real reason you should cheer for your champions is that every player active on the winning server at the time of the match will receive a special ship: the Victorieux Luxury Yacht.


Emphasis mine.

Just to clarify, because these lines can be misinterpreted... will the prize go to all active accounts (as in currently subscribed) on the winning server, or only to active accounts that are also logged into Eve at the time of the match? In other words, when Team Tranquility wins, do we have to be in game to get a yatcht?

I ask because my old decrepit computer can handle watching Twitch OR being logged into Eve, not both at the same time.

Very excited to watch the fabulous stream, so jealous I can't be there this year! Go Camel Empire!!

Thanks!

If I'm not mistaken there wasn't a Fanfest every year the last 11 years?!

EDIT: Is it possible to see which of this events will be streamed?

Any news on when non-fanfest people can get a hold of the fanfest ship skins? Also, is there gonna be a plex option for this, or is the company fighting that much for survial that plex isn't an option for ccp anymore?

I would like to second [or third] the request for a PDF of the schedule...

For those of me that have neither tablet nor smart phone and are not bringing a laptop**...

What are these 'apps' you speak of?
