Hello all, I'll start this out by simply stating what I need: Large Sum investments of 1 billion or greater to reach a financial goal of 50 billion. With a 10% total return and a multitude of other services over the span of the next 5 months. And even larger goals as the costs increase.

The usage of this money will go into a variety of functions all serving one major goal - The formation of a Corporation, and eventually alliance, dedicated to the players of EVE who are truly passionate about the game. This sounds quite vague, I understand that, so let me explain this further.

When I first got into EVE around the beginning of 2010, I was drawn to this idea of a sandbox world in which players can actually make a difference to the world around them, that idea that your actions mattered, and that infinite possibilities awaited those who were willing to dedicate themselves to the game. It was such a remarkable concept in my mind, making EVE more than just a game, something you can be proud about succeeding in along with friends and rivals that you make over the span of your playtime.

However, like many players I became jaded to this concept quite quickly, feeling like just another cog in the wheel regardless of what type of career I pursued in eve, and believe me if you can name it, I've done it. From living in a c6 wormhole, SOV space with Brave and then the Goons, even brief spats of being a high-sec war deccer playing station games and a miner spending his hours in renter null. That dream of forming something greater than myself pretty quickly fizzled out even though I still enjoyed the time and friends I made in the game.

But now the game is changing.

With the new Sov Nullsec updates, power isn't going to be measured by simply the number of supercapitals one possesses, but rather the dedication of the players willing to hold their own in Null Sec. Skill and not skillpoints will be capable of holding their own for long periods of time. And damage the major empires that have become staples of the game. A goal that is almost unimaginably large but much more attainable.


So what do we hope to achieve?

There are a few simple goals here.

1.) Establish a group of players that isn't focused on being bittervets or having EVE ****-measuring contests with their killboards.

2.) Create a strong enough force to become a new, major power in nullsec.

3.) Formulate new ways for players to contribute to such a (potentially) large organization that leaves nobody feeling like another part of the faceless masses. Regardless of SP levels or experience.

What will the ISK be used for?

The ISK will be used, as I said before, for a multitude of functions to set up the immense groundwork for what we're attempting here. I'll give a quick overview of the major expenses.

1.) Jump Freighter logistics. Easily one of the largest dents in our budget, considering the cost of a solely dedicated JF pilot, the JF itself, PLEX'ing an account dedicated to having a logged-off cyno network, and the freighter to transport items to and from the staging area.

2.) Funding for both capital and sub-cap ships required for the besieging of our starting systems. SRP on a corp-op based scale will be a definite incentive for players to stick along.

3.) The costs of both maintaining, upgrading, and creating POSes so that the corporation can quickly start returning a profit on initial investments.

Obviously 50 billion is going to be much smaller than what will be needed to carry out a program of this scale.

And finally, a question you all are asking, "Why should I trust that you can complete this?"


As a player off and on for the past 5 years, I've learned the ins and outs of how every area of EVE works. I know how to generate massive profits on a corporate and individual scale, and have FC'd many large fleets over the course of my career. I'm crazy about EVE, and I want to work with you on the ground floor to change history. As a side-note, billions of my personal isk and a lot of real life funding will be going into this on my part.

Contact me on this character via mail, I will be glad to talk to you about the specifics of my ideas, whether on comms such as TS3 or via chat. I'll also be glad to answer questions, and take constructive criticism her eon the forums.

Thank You!

so your looking for a medium term loan for 50 bil and offering 10% to be paid out of the course of the 5 months. What's the collateral being offered, and what will be the major focus of the corp?

i.e. How are you planning on making the money back to pay us.


depending on how you answer, I might be able to offer a bil or two

Stopped reading there. No idea if there's collateral or not but even if there is you're not going to get anywhere.

Yeah, this is going nowhere real fast. Moving on to next bogus loan.

Rude, Obnoxious and somewhat in you face.

And yet after 5 years you could not accumulate enough to do it yourself and need a 50B loan.I restarted eve about 5 years ago and went up to close 1T while playing casual and only playing the markets about 3 to 4 months a year and the rest of the time pvping and spending.Also i have been playing the game for close to 10 years with a 1 year break halfway and having done allmost everything in eve , even i don't know the 'ins and outs' of the game.


And that is just two of the many many 'holes' in your idea ...

How very fitting. This gentleman would probably want to help youn out.

Maybe you two should meet for some tea and biscuits.
