I think I should be on the CSM because I'm really good at eve and know a lot about eve and I'm like smart and **** and have a lot of good ideas which I won't detail here but imagine if there was some idea that you had which you think would be amazing well that's probably one of the ideas which I have which I'm not listing here because I thought of it first like before you were even born and if you vote for me then I'll do it in the CSM which I want to be in because I'm really smart and have good ideas which you want me to do but I can't do until you vote for me so you should do that.


Actual election stuff below

Who are you!?!?
I started playing EVE with some people from the starcraft community website teamliquid.net around 4 years ago. We were based in gallente highsec but had dreams of forming a pack of frigates and hunting through lowsec to collectively bring down a big juicy PvP target. Unfortunately I was awful at eve back then and had no real clue what I was doing and quit within a few months. I came back two years later playing with a new generation of guys from tl and we made our own corp called The Hatchery. From small beginnings in caldari highsec running missions and salvaging we moved to minmatar lowsec and eventually came to dominate Molden Heath with a highly effective t1 bc/frigate nano style that we were forced to learn due to the larger, older groups already in the area who could outnumber us and field tech two ships and even capitals. Eventually we tired of being denied fights in MH and moved north to hunt bigger prey in the form of the CFC and NC. While there we made a fairly large sum of isk (see here http://evenews24.com/2012/03/14/the-great-contract-scam/) and honed our skills to an even finer edge becoming, in my opinion, some of the most competent smallgang PvPers in the game.

Our experience as a corp has been pretty much entirely in lowsec and nullsec and my role within it was as a leader, strategic planner, FC and PvP pilot. I would say I know smallgang PvP as well as anyone and I've tried my hand at pretty much every aspect of lowsec living over the years. More recently I've been doing some FW abuse which, as anyone who has done it will know, has a lot of potential for random solo PvP. I feel solo and small gang play, particularly in lowsec, has been often overlooked by CCP (http://i.imgur.com/fsF4iq4.png) which is a real shame. If elected I would try and redress that balance although my thoughts on the game go beyond my main focus on PvP.

Why do you want a platform to help CCP improve eve?!?!
because this

To explain it with slightly more words, I feel there is a genuine disconnect between CCP and much of the eve experience and nowhere is this felt harder than lowsec. I don't think they're incompetent or malicious, I think they just don't get it. I want to try and address that by communicating to them the concerns of the lowsec players, the sovless nullsec roamers and those who do small gang/solo PvP. I honestly believe that if CCP are made aware of what is important to us players, even if it's something silly like giving us back the flashing police light on the navy comet, they'll do their best to help us. I want to be a part of that.

FIRST REVEALED POLACY
I heard from extensive research among voters that the Player Owned Station In Space System, henceforth POSISS (Player Owned Station In Space System), isn't very good and needs improving. Therefore, in regard to this, I make polacy CCP fix POSISS (Player Owned Station In Space System).

THARD REVEALED POLACY
FW did a great job at getting people into low but it has completely ruined the scaling of mission rewards in lowsec. Previously you were looking at like 6k LP for a good l4 in highsec, 9k for the same in lowsec. However now we're looking at easily 30k, often twice that, for easy FW missions which have the same LP store items. So lowsec missioning has become completely marginalised, it lacks the safety of highsec or the pay of FW. FW did a good job of stimulating lowsec activity but it has made a lot of existing stuff redundant. Substantially increase the payout on the mid tier (lowsec) pirate personal effects that get sold to concord buy orders too in order to give exploration the same love that other parts of lowsec got.

FOURD REVEALED POLACY
Actually do instant sec status regain through item trade-ins that was floated around a year ago. Doesn't have to be tags, could be officers effects or a new item or whatever else but sec status is an awful mechanic which punishes people in lowsec for playing the game. A mechanic that goes "sorry, you can no longer access all these parts of the game because you wanted to play these other parts of the game in the way that we, the game designers, intended" comes from the same school of thought that gave you the old POS system and the wardecs. While we're at it, take away sec penalties from lowsec combat, it can be assumed to be consensual. Sec status can still have a use for keeping highsec suicide gankers from doing it forever but consensual pvp is a part of living in lowsec, it should not be penalised. Also do a sec status amnesty, a lot of people got negative ten under old mechanics and getting it back up is hellish.

I actually have a wormhole idea but it's a little bit out there. You see I don't think in the lore it was ever explained where wormholes came from.

What the game really needs is a brand new feature/mechanic/expansion based around giant space worms that can actually tunnel through space itself and appear thousands of light years away. They would appear in a wormhole system, rampage around smashing stuff for a day and then tunnel into a different wormhole of the same class leaving behind a hole that would last for 72 hours and have no mass restriction. This would mean that if you had one in your wormhole system you could go through the hole it came through into another of the same class where it was yesterday and from that into the one it was in the day before with no restrictions, and they could all go into yours. This would have two impacts, firstly massively changing the defenders advantage in wormhole warfare where attackers can't get more than a handful of caps, you could follow the worm with a cap fleet and know you could definitely get it home tomorrow. Secondly, you could use your cap fleet to attack the worm itself in large scale wormhole PvE (although you'd be vulnerable to all the normal wormhole PvP risks as well as the new risk that someone else in the three wormholes connected by unrestricted holes to the one the worm was now in would also bring their entire cap fleet and everything would escalate like crazy).
You may ask for the reason to try and kill this giant rampaging space worm which takes entire cap fleets (difficulty scaled to wormhole class) to kill when it'll just move on in a day. Well, scientists have roleplay studied how this animal creates wormholes and discovered it uses a previously unknown material to generate them and then they built a machine that can replicate them if fuelled. You kill the giant worms to harvest their sweet, sweet burrowing fuel to put into your wormhole generation machine to create massive stable wormholes with no restriction (or just sell it for the many isks).
That's right, I've included whaling in EVE. **** you Greenpeace. We'll hunt the giant space worms for their precious ambergris to fuel our wormhole generators.
Also if you live in a c6 (or whatever) you can buy/farm a load of fuel and open up a massive stable wormhole to another c6 and then invade them with all your caps and know it'll be safe and stable for 72 hours.

TLDR: Wormholes made by actual giant space worms. True story.

Hmm... Special ship needed for hunting them? Maybe made out of wood with harpoon based weapon system that keeps them from flying away into space and smashing stuff.
