Just putting this here again.

Better video, better music. ^^

Unfortunately, that link doesn't load for me. What?
That's odd, because it should.

The OP's link loaded. None of the others have.

Of course, I'm baby-stting a compile that's taking it's own sweet time, and the browser I'm locked into is old, old, old. Straight

What are you compiling?

Is it an old machine or at least multi-core?

Pharmecuetical Regulatory Submission. A bit under half a mega-page in size.
The back end is a cluster, but the softwarwe is old and cranky. The front end is a mid-power laptop, cause I'm only yanking the controls from here, not driving the engines. Corporate standard software suite, due to be replaced soon, but not just yet. Very old.

Put it to ya this way: We'd LOVE to get our hands on CCP's server farm. Lol

There are good ships,

And wood ships,

And ships that sail the sea

But the best ships are Spaceships

That's one of those predictable responses.

Sounds like it's freshly made? :)

I Argue the entire legitimacy of this fight. Since before Joining the CFC I was told we had no caps and even if we did they would never get used. I believe this is all one mass hallucination. Because if it is Legit -ALOT- of friends owe me some major iskies.

And why aren't you telling us why they owe you money?

Arcane stuff. There is no school that teaches what we do. I came to it by way of Nuclear Reactors and Systems Administration. Which, oddly enough ,makes me perfect for the job.

I do so love shiny server clusters, though... Lol
(and that's why this fight has me so impressed with CCP and their ingenuity)

Yawn....and most of the Eve subscription base does not care.
This is NOT an amazing fight.

This is 2 sides blobbing away, racing to get their 100 billion ISK toys into a system, that if they lose, will be replaced tomorrow.It is comments like yours that demonstrate the inherent bias that a significant amount of CCP employees have, think null sec Eve = best Eve = ONLY Eve worth caring about.

BTW, what is Tidi at now?


When's the last time highsec made the New York Times :smug:?


If this is so awesome, I would suggest that every marketing employee at CCP jump on the phone to every contact they have at every online gaming site, and beg them to link this twitch TV feed to their front pages.

I am on that twitch feed now.
Wow, does it ever look entertaining.
I am sure this picture of multi-coloured squares, and a series of ship names flashing every 3 or 4 seconds is, as one of your sycophants put it, "an amazing fight".


The gameplay during these fights isn't amazing. The pure amount of players is. And that you can convert ISK to Real Money thanks to the ability to buy and sell PLEX for it. That is stuff that makes for interesting headlines. You want to show the streams to show people that it's boring? ***** please. Ask anybody and they'll tell you "Isn't eve that boring exel program?" WHat's interesting for people not playing eve is only the meta, because in their opinion the game is boring anyways.

I would of thought the Deduction would be simple on that one. They all put money on the fact CFC would -NEVER- Drop caps in fights.

The strategy and planning are more important to what makes it interesting. There's a HUGE amount of organization that leads to fights like this - Boring, reptitive tasks that seem unimportant... Until one of those 'unimportant' tasks gets missed, and the whole ediface comes a part in an orgy of detruction.

It's like watching folks climb cliffs - The climbers are there for the love of what they do, but the folks watching? Most of them are secretly hoping to see someone fall.

Me? I take a slighly more academic angle at it - I love watching the results of a really well-executed plan - Especially when it comes into contact with the unexpected. I'm not as interested in the fall as I am in how the climber has planned how to *deal* with the fall - And how well that plan works out.

I hope the $100K plus was destroyed thing (converting ISK loss to $$ through PLEX costs) does not become the foremost headline.

If it does we're gonna hear about this "gamers destroying expensive stuff while people starve" thing. Sure, it's not actual money and we all know that but we are dealing with a population that sees a pocket pistol knock someone 10' in the air or buy a machine gun over the counter (not possible since 1934) and end up thinking that's for real. So let's not all go "oooh" and "aaaahh" over the ISK destroyed in this battle lest we get the "populist whip" across our backs.

Bring back DEEEEP Space!
