I like the idea of someone representing the folks who're playing casually. As I didn't end up finding that gameplay compelling, I ended up moving on to an area with plenty of casual PvP play (camping an entry pipe system is pretty sweet).

For those players, though, what are their (your?) general goals in the game? What are they striving towards, and what's their philosophy of the game? What is one positive improvement (ie, buff or feature addition) that could be made that would make their time spent logged in more fun?

Mike?
What is your position about WiS and The CQ's?
Do you plan something on this part of EvE?

Opacity is not a good policy... *shrugs*

Unless you've used all the other resources he's linked to find out his positions. There's plenty of information out there if you actually care to look. I would hope most people don't let a less than reliable web app make their voting decisions for them.


i won't be reading 28 platforms to pick suitable candidates.Roll

And as i said, opacity is not a good strategy. If Mike is too good to thread on the same ground as everyone else, then maybe he's not good enough a candidate... Straight

Its odd, I just listened to an episode of podside where I swear Mike spoke of filling out the questionnaire for Dierdra Vaal.

The only end-game content in EVE Online is the crap that makes you rage quit.

You've spent more time commenting in this thread than it would have taken to read the OP. You obviously have time management issues. P

Well, I read his OP, and endorsed him, but also checked candidate match on the 28th and he wasn't there. Provided that we're supposed to fill a ballot with 14 positions, the obvious strategy is to fill it in matching order, as long a the candidates do their part. And so I voiced my concern as Mike wasn't there, and 6 days later he still hasn't answered.

Others have answered and apparently now it is my fault to voice my concern on a simple matter where a one liner would suffice, like:

"I did already"

Or even, engaging some PR:

"I did already, thanks for caring"

Or even, in a truly political way:

"I did already, thanks for caring. I aim to answer your concerns to be your voice in the CSM"

But well, it's April 3rd, and still there's no answer from the man himself. Question

Which vote site are you referring to, the votomat, dirdre vaaals vote match or some other one?

I have tried to conect to each in turn but if I have missed one . . .

I am anything but opaque . . . I have blogged my opinion of csm issues over the past years in great detail.
but if you feel the need to use a questionaire with preset questions then point me to the one you feel I have missed.

Well, for some reason, you still don't show at the results page in Deirdre's vote matcher...

Reading up on the Candaties,. I see hope with you for the everyman who likes his space, and doesnt like the idea it much change to just suit someone else. There are few who want to fix whats wrong without ruining something else. I like Highsec the way it is, the idea highsec should change to fix null/low sec problems make me fear every CSM.

You got my Vote, just a shame there wasnt 13 other people i could vote for with any confidence.

I hope you get elected Mike. You earned my No. 2 vote. I loved your Crossing Zebras interview, and I agree its best EVE progressed in small steps rather than giant leaps that you have to backtrack to fix.
Good luck!

My crossing Zebras interview . . . I was happy with what I said, just wish there hadn't been that sound quality issue.

Well, wasn't that bad, eventually you were #1 in a ballot of 4. Hope you make it through the bloc scriptvoting.

Do you really think that <6 devs working parttime in Team Avatar is too much?

Well, that's some "6 devs working part time" more than what CCP has devoted to working on EVE avatars since September 2012.

If you feel terribly optimistic, you may hope that CCP Karkur & al have been missing from devblogs because they're working on something CCP is holding as a surprise for Fanfest, and that will be unannounced avatar content. If that's the case and you really could hope for that, then I can offer you a bussines proposal in which you give me money and i double it for you, true.
