Since there are no pictures of the pink ship, why not put the BPOs in the market on Tranquility and let us do that job for you? Big smile

A pity that www.pinkribbonday.com.au is only Australian. You could have released the pink ship as some sort of fundraiser. Or something.

FOUL! NOT FAIR!

Something awesome I didn't know about CCP Punkturis... I didn't think there could be more.

CCP Eterne, one could post a hand-drawn photo of Iceland with a pink dot for "CPP Punkturis is here" and get a 10/10 rating. Writing an entire piece on her, in pink no less, and with her wearing pink in every photo, is just blatantly farming likes.

As for tennis and badminton, the national teams have threatened to sue me if I so much as admit I've ever seen a racket let alone held one. [A college professor was an avid badminton player, and used to wipe the court with me when I was in my prime years; he was very near-sighted, partially deaf, and 64.]

EDIT: I'd pay Aurum for a BPC of CCP Punkturis's pink ship.

What happened to the objectively somewhat aesthetically challenged hat I brought for CCP Cub?

CCP Punkturis welcomed me to EVE in-game and made me realize early on how involved the staff is with the actual game. CCP Guard and Soundwave were the first ones I met while waiting in line for an event and do agree that we need to have a spotlight on the colorful and charismatic CCP Guard soon. The interviews in EON magazine were one of my favorite features in that publication.

Ideally accompanied by Permaband doing a cover of "Charisma" by KISS.

CCP Punkturis and CCP Explorer did an awesome job with a reveal tease to those of us on Twitter regarding our perennial requests for a filterable station guest list. Awesome stuff, thank you!

Don't sunrises last like a week out there?

I would love to see new drone UI

That comment is so awesome that it's almost cheating.

CCP Greyscale: As to starbases, we agree it's pretty terrible, but we don't want to delay the entire release just for this one factor.

Unlike most of us who use base 10, 16 or 2, then this in base pink.

Glad you liked it. The tease, that is, I didn't program anything.

We get a lot of daylight throughout the year https://twitter.com/erlendur/status/274323228644757504 but nearly all of it during the summer. The shortest day in the winter is 4 hours, the longest in summer is 21 hours (Reykjavík, on the southern coast; the day up north is 24 hours).

Pink is really good color, not even mud can cover it Big smile

Ooh- I'm looking forward to this series of dev blogs and what a great one to kick it off :)

The loss of the world of finance is EVE's gain :)

That said - let the little fella have access to space-ships before he's 18. The poor thing will be so desperate by the time he hits 5 :)

My son (7) plays a fair bit on my second account and he adores the game. He struggled a little with the learning curve in a few areas but he really enjoys it and with a little help from me and a bit from his corpies (who are fantastic) he's managed to tackle everything coming his way. He's uber-excited about the monument as well.

24h daylight sure.

But isn't it a fact that it's only a small tiny island off the north coast of mainland Iceland that actually has midnight sun? >:)
