I would call that a dramatic improvement over your alliance panel presentation then.
Actually, the TDSIN bit was pretty entertaining, albeit highly irrelevant. Fitting. Great insight on how bad they really are, though.
I dont mind him demonstrating he is a douchenozzle, not at all. I'm more worried about it reflecting on the hole Wspace community and everybody thinking we all are as full of crap as he is.


then how about you go and do an alliance panel kind of thing. it wasn't "WHERE EVE PLAYERS PLAY PANEL" it was an alliance panel. and he was representing his alliance
and you probably care too much about other people not liking the way you play the game you pay for

yeah, you do, cos that's a really horrible idea.
there's no agro timer on WHs, which means you need to be close to it so you can follow people through to shoot them on the other side.
spawning at 15km makes it HARDER to catch people, not easier mate...


+1

There are already so many covert ops flyers in WH space, the only chance generally to catch them is when they have an unlucky jump and are too close to the WH to cloak as an example.

If you're looking at it for catching covops, sure, it's harder. I don't really care about catching covops. It would make it easier to engage fleets who would typically just hug the wormhole so they can GTFO when they don't feel like fighting anymore... With a farther spawn, they're more committed than before.

I thought Exo was entertaining. People bitching on how it might reflect badly on wh space, get over it. Eve is full of douchecanoes, wh space included. Besides, I have seen most of you do stuff that reflects poorly on our little section of the game, so don't act like your **** doesn't stink.

No trolling please

Well as already mentioned it was better than last year. Although he seems to forget that the addition of random corps/alliances to Overlords started with TDSIN. EVE-Uni getting in was the channel getting back on the right track.

That's rich about that sponsored message about Transmission Lost that you got TDSIN to say during the alliance panel.

And how you ditch Existential Anxiety while they are being war dec by Transmission Lost.

I can see why you got kicked out of Transmission Lost, not even TDSIN would want you as leader.

That's funny considering I was out of EA before the war dec went live. This means I dropped roles before the dec. But hey, if it makes you feel better to make false assumptions, you do that.

well I am sorry if many of you didnt like my presentation, if you think i looked like an idiot I would like to point you to several others in the same panel who had far less content than I did. Overall i think that TDSIN is a fairly decent representation of WH space, we roam around and pvp, eat nullbears, and in general have a great time with what is easily the best part of eve. Knowing the entire panel was going to be nullbears complementing/bashing eachother on their abilities to blob i strived to be completely different.

I also think it would have been better if CCP Dolan ( Michael bolton) wasnt rushing me because dns Black and the FA woman took forever.

yea you did fine, most entertaining, and your coaching them up presentation was also really well done. that FA chick .. well some people should probably learn or get some public speaking coaching done before you speak in front of that many people, or simply decline

In all honesty, I don't have high opinions about TDSIN, but Exo didn't do a horrible job. It was amusing, he bashed WHoverlords... all was amusing. It was much more amusing than DNS and FA who wasted more time so I couldn't enjoy the others being rushed.

Your panel was hilarious dude, don't feel bad.

At least your corp wasn't contracted 5000 units of oxygen for their presentation...

It has to be said that the wormhole round table should have been in a much larger area than room 1 or 2. It had by far the most people attending.

What ended up happening was the people who got there early to make sure they got in ended up people at the back when we moved to the other room, this meant we could not hear / see almost anything.

Also from the few bits i did hear most of it was about bears crying they have to leave their home systems when they run out of sites :(

Hopefully next FF we can have more space allocated.

This exactly, I sat at the room for an hour and a half just hanging with Wh bros to ensure i got a seat and could hear. So many carebears showed up they moved it to the poker area, which resulted in never being able to hear anything and the majority of topics discussed being dumb.

Top 3 things discussed:
1. Infinite Wh sites so I never have to leave my wh ~ guy in a C2 who has 0 interest in interaction with other players
2. Looking into mass limits so that "all the 50 man blobs roaming C2 space" cant keep raping his drake.
3. Wh mass variations because that will make Wh space better.

I had my hand raised for almost half of the table and never got to speak. Now everyone is entitled to their own opinions but i reserve mine in saying that what was discussed and focused on was silly.

You must have been in a different round table to me as the guy in the C2 only talked for 2 minutes.

Most of the talk was on higher class WH ,dread blapping,escalations and so on.

Remember even though the guy may have been from a lowly C2 he IS entitled to his opinion just as you are.

Edit :

The subject of the Rorqual was brought up and the CCP members were just talking about ore compression inside wormholes. One of our members brought up the fact that the Rorqual also has the capacity to hold a clone vat and that the ability to clone jump inside your own wormhole would be a good idea since wormhole systems were the only systems in eve that have different effects.

This subject was only briefly touched on which i found a little frustrating because not being able to take advantage of the different effects wormholes have seems to me a little crazy.

Obviously you didn't hear much from the meeting.

For 3/4 of this meeting all I heard was dreadnaughts, dreadnaughts, escalations and some more dreadnaughts thrown in. I thought I had gone to a null round table in error.

The guy who mentioned C2 sites got all of about 2 minutes before being told by pretty much everyone there to man up and leave his wh.

I agree on your point that the meeting was far from long enough and many people (including myself) were unable to get across the points that we wanted to discuss. It is clear that in future events more time and resources need to be put aside for the wh community which appears to be growing at a faster rate.
