Exactly how much "formatting" has to be done? It defies reason.

Dump it, compress it into an archive and stick it somewhere, link to it in devblog/press release.

Anything more complex and I am afraid you may be over thinking it.

Ok people, give them some slack. The results will come asap.
Please just don't start throwing around rumors and slander. Thanks.

The voting page wasn't too complicated, but it was broken the first time I tried.

I thought they were fighting for the tutu of power.

That is why they hide behind the skirts of CONCORD, so they can see if one of them is wearing it.Lol

If there are that many more US players then the rest of the world why do you idiots continue to run your stupid live evens in euro time only.

Stupid Question, Stupid answer.

Perhaps it is because these events are run by people who have jobs, and it is a part of their jobs to run these events. For this reason the events are run by these developers while they are at work. Since CCP is in Iceland they are on Euro time. They go to work on Euro time, they sleep on Euro time.

For example right now it is 1:15 PM where I live, in Canada est time zone. But it is 5:15 PM in Iceland where CCP is. It is time for them to go home, but our prime time does not start for another 4 hours.

In order for CCP developers to run a live event between say 1800hrs (6:00pm) and 2000hrs (8:00 pm) eastern time (prime time for the U.S. and Canada. they would have to be at work from 2200hrs (10:00 pm) to 2400 hrs (12:00am midnight) meaning they would have to work 5 to 7 hours beyond a normal work day. Sure they could shift there schedule a bit, but to hit full on prime time for north American players they would basically have to work midnights.

Considering these live events are basically game content supported by CCP developers volunteering there time, not part of their normal work schedule, this becomes very hard to do. I doubt CCP is willing to have dedicated staff working midnight shifts, just to make live events available for players who live in the wrong time zone. Eventually it will happen, but currently they do not have the resources for that.

I personally didn't vote because of the new STV system - it's horseshit imo and I don't have the time or the inclination to go through every. single. nominee. and *rank* them in order. Are you f**king kidding me?? It's time-consuming enough to go through the list and the matching programs etc. to pick just one.


So why didn't you just pick one? Please don’t tell us you did not know you could pick any number <14 of candidates?

I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but no, I don't recall seeing that point made clear anywhere. I would have happily voted for just 1 person but had zero desire to spend time ranking 14 people I don't know from Adam.
