Its important that we don't lose sight of CCP's recent successes in light of this small failure.

Well it looks like the TCU in Y-MPWL is not going to be reinforced the way this is going...

When the going gets tough the Gankers get their CSM rep to change mechanics in their favour.

Right now I'm sipping glenmorangie. Too poor to afford talsker. gm at least half the price.

GMs nice to tho I hav to agreeBig smile


Its the normal 10 year. Much prefer the port casket GM. Have you tried that?
How do you drink your talisker? I've been told 5ml water to 30ml whiskey. Me, Just add 2 cubes and swirl till it goes down like nectar... okey it goes down like nectar from the bottle as well, but still...


Purists say no ice, no water. Myself, not fussy. If it's good whisky, it's good whisky. Big smile


Make mine about 3 fingers' worth of Jameson, if you please? Lol

Just to keep things in perspective for you all:

There are 30 days in a sub cycle. This is 720 hours a cycle. The most expensive sub fee for Eve is $15USD/mo. This works out to ~$0.02 cents an hour.

So, all in all, per account, you are currently out right around 12 cents USD as of this moment.

If this amount is truly stressful for you, please send me a verifiable invoice of your current accounts. I will reimburse you the time you are currently out from Eve right from my own pocket.



*1 We all make a lot more then that an hour
*2 Noone on here plays 24/7
*3 some of us just got a lucky draw before the dt (like me p.e.)

So for those that lost most (or all of their playtime cause of the dt), if we assume they play 5 hours a day and make 100 mil an hour they would have lost 500 mil cause of this dt (not counting possible lucky draws before the dt), thos people have lost 7,5 usd because of the downtime, I am not saying everyone makes 100 mil an hour but there are people that make a lot more on here so imo 100 mil an hour is a fair assomption.

Since I've been mostly playing Skill Queue Online lately, can't say that I'm much concerned about the extended downtime. Please take your time in resolving this problem, CCP. Just don't forget to give us free SP or extend our subscriptions by few days after you fix it.

Workarounds are not bugfixes.

Something real weird happening man! I’ve been cruising the asteroid fields for hours looking for some bozo miner to gank and there’s no one around.

ANGEL CARTEL PILOT #2
They’re up to something! I just know it.

ANGEL CARTEL PILOT #1
It’s like everyone just disappeared!

ANGEL CARTEL PILOT #2
It makes you wonder, man, if all those rumours are true.

ANGEL CARTEL PILOT #1
Rumours?

ANGEL CARTEL PILOT #2
You know. The ones about the whole universe being controlled by some alien forces “out there”, controlling everything. You know, like ... like we’re all in some gigantic computer game. They could be looking down on us right now!

ANGEL CARTEL PILOT #1
C’mon man! That’s just weird! You’re gonna have to stay off the quafe. That’s just too weird for words.

ANGEL CARTEL PILOT #2
It’s a weird world man! You just don’t know.

maybe compensate all the people who attempted to log in during the issue?

i mean the hamsters are costing all us eve players allot of isk.... maybe some sp might be the way to go? or some more gecko's or gnossis? u know the little things that you gift us when things go wrong or on special events :)


really?
were we to be "fair" about the issue....

our 30 day subscription to EvE Online is 30, 23 hour days, more often than not, the 1 hour DT is rarely more than a few minutes to 1/2 of an hour, so technically, we should all be paying CCP extra each month for the time that we gain from their normally rapid reboots...

just think of all the extra isks and free game time those hamsters have already given you...

I'm pretty sure i don't need to do the math for what the time actually costs.... do I?

Don't mistake fact for arrogance, supposition for fact, or disagreement for dismissal. Perception is unique in that it can be shared or singular. Run with the pack if you wish, but think for yourself. A sandwich can be a great motivator.
