Corps aside, this game is divided by user interest. Regardless of greater organization we all have out niches that really make eve worth logging into.

CSM's while having their focuses are in the CSM to make the audiences of their respective interested heard. Regardless of content it is your job to make those meetings. You are a voice for people in this game, they voted for you and they stand behind their actions (I myself am one of them). Unfortunately you will be losing my vote this coming election. It is you job to make those meetings and put in your perspective. That is why you are on the CSM. Not only do you now argue that your actions are justified, you brag and push off questions regarding your lack of commitment.

Continually, why would you assume that WH's are not perfect places for small gang PVP?

You should be ashamed of yourself. I am ashamed that I voted for you.

If he had as he implied real world work to attend to which, you know, makes sure he has a roof over his head etc. you can't really get mad at him over that choice. He also stated there are non-NDA'd notes for him to review and he has the means to talk to CCP about those topics in secure venues after the meeting took place.

It appears to have been a decision between a meeting about internet spaceship pixels so as to appease privileged people like you and I, or sort out real world issues that could include making sure he has a roof over his head at night. Not everyone on the CSM can be a trust fund baby.

Are you equally ashamed of voting for mynnna a guy who does a ton on the council but also couldn't make any summit meetings?

It is no secret that I am not a fan of small gang pvp in wormholes. Due to the mechanics with how wormholes work you need to split your gang up and cover both sides. Most of the time you cant sacrifice 2-3 guys to control both sides. There is also a bigger barrier of entry to small gang lowsec pvp such as probing, logistics and finding fights.

I think Thera really helped wormhole small gang pvpers and general roaming small gang corps. Having stations makes logistics easier and the massive numbers of exits have made me and my corp move into Thera and base out of it for roaming.

My definition of small gang is less then 10 people often 5 or less.

So short answer for why I am not the biggest fan of wh small gang pvp: The fleets you run into are not easily engage able by my gangs and I get more content out of low and 0.0 space. Now I'm not saying how small gang pvp in whs are non existant just not perfect in my eyes. We will see what happens after the t3 rebalance.

I didn't vote for Mynnna, I made a point not too. Don't assume because of my corp or alliance that I voted one way or another.

Then again you seem to make a lot of assumptions, you assume that you can pass off your duties to other CSM's because your "not the biggest fan of WH small gang PVP".

The fact that you ignored an event because you didn't like a mechanic or a way its structured is the worst platform to stand on when it comes to representation. I assume you would attend such meetings and aim to change them for the better, not let them stagnate because you "not a fan of small gang pvp in wormholes".

In a nutshell you admit to being centric in your focus, not accepting the responsibility to manage your representation of a community outside of already preferred aspects of the game and sidelining your supporters because "I don't like wh's".

You continue to solidify my idea that you are a terrible representative and should never have been elected to the CSM.

I agree, to assume that every CSM can make time to fly out to Iceland would be a hugely ignorant move. Fortunately, thats not what i am referring too.

He had the option of attending events during the Winter CSM meeting remotely, you can view his attendance here. His clear lack of commitment to the job when it comes to areas he deems uninteresting is what I have a problem with.

In this Capstable Podcast discussion the topic of having the CSM 10 candidates personal information remain private came up after CCP announced that will be the policy. Do you agree with Marc Scaurus in that perhaps your personal information should be put out there in order to run for CSM despite the current climate of people within gaming (in general) investigating your personal life, contacting your family and so forth or do you feel this shift in policy is better for those on the CSM to prevent them from harassment?

You'd be committing a pretty big fallacy in assessing a person's value purely on their attendance at the Winter Summit. I mean, I could use this same line of thinking and say that Mynnna was wholely incompetent as a CSM member because he couldn't be asked to use Skype once.

That Google Doc, of course, is a small sampling of only a fraction of what sort of work the CSM does. To think it's a clear representation of who on the CSM is actually committed to their role is, and I say this seriously, stupid.

I definitely think that personal info should stay private. It was only yesterday when I last saw someone getting doxed while streaming eve and it's nothing I support at all. I am not the most private person online though and I guess that you could probably get my real life info pretty easily if you really wanted to harass me. I don't really see what benefit it would be that the csm members are public people or not. It's only bad imo.

Recently we spoke about some of the more upsetting conspiracy theories in EvE Online. I asked you if you in all honesty put any validity in the claim that I secretly/magical/etc went to Iceland to vandalize my own name on the EvE Monument. You told me that you did believe this. While I found this unsettling it's your right to believe what you want. My questions are based on the subject of belief and how this affects your function as a delegate.


As a candidate for CSM 10 how would you go about reconciling the beliefs you have in a context where they conflict with CCP?
As a CSM delegate would you be willing to concede certain stances if those stances were seen by others to be a distraction?

Oh trust me, me and CCP are not on the same page on a bunch of topics especially ship balancing and I have no problem calling them out or getting called out on that. I try my best to argue my point and they do the same. We are probably never going to 100% agree on a topic and I am not going to lay down dead just because we don't agree. I don't really have any stances that are seen as a distraction because I actually play this game enough to know whats ******** and whats not.

As for the first part: lol the world is out to get you.

You should vote for someone who attend the meetings that are relevant to the game.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but am I supposed to interpret this as you considering the topics you chose not to attend as irrelevant and unimportant?


"You should vote for someone who attend the meetings where he feels that he can actually contribute with stuff. " - Gorski Car

Here Jayne, i corrected your quote so it does not stink of so much Bias. Also, it is now 100% more quote, and at least 50% less paraphrasing to make your argument seems valid.

Gorski, 100% back what you said here. If you dont know anything about C6 WH Mechanics, and dont know why Sov is a pain in the ass to grind, then i don't want your opinion on it. You DO know small gang PvP, and you do know the value of balance between small gang and large fights, and this is why you will have my vote.
Side note: Please for the love of god put supers on the same level as titans. I can think of no scenario where a super assigning drones has helped increase Mortal Kontent.

I played other games in my past life. I must have done something wrong to be re-incarnated as an Eve player.

You should vote for someone who attend the meetings where he feels that he can actually contribute with stuff. Besides we get recordings and minutes that are not REDACTED and sometimes IRL work gets in front of spaceship politician work.


so you turned up for sod all meetings, what ever.

I didn't want to **** my thread up with a oneliner. I talked more about this in my cap stable interview that will be released soon I hope. There is also the problem of me not feeling like I have actually been on the csm to write a review. Coming in late into a close knit group saying Hi was pretty hard.

Goatsephobia: Thanks m8 I deny all accusations of shitposting in the swe channel.

Sion Kumitomo wrote some nice words about me: http://www.themittani.com/news/csm-straight-dope?page=0%2C4
Sorry for calling you a bitter vet in my cap stable interview but I hope you wont mind as you know your **** and is really smart despite being a bit bitter :)

Baali: I am all for filling the holes where ccp has forgotten to add a faction variant to one thing but not another. A small side note would be that I want FoFs to work and introduce faction fofs into the lp store + buff them. This is just a small thingy tho nothing super serious but it would open up some counter play vs ecm.

Xenuria: I stand by my statement that you can teleport lol.

Some final shoutouts:

Corebloodbrothers: your ideas are great and your posts have some quality english but at least you get your point through. You work extremly hard despite having a family and stuff and I have no idea how you manage it but great job.

Mynnna and Fuzzysteve: I am not that stupid to not realize when someone is smarter then me. Both these guys are extremly smart and its sad to see mynnna not running but Fuzzy will def get one of my votes. I might not understand all the technical stuff you talk with ccp devs but I am sure it's helping them a lot and the whole game.

Sugar kyle: I don't think anyone can say you are not the hardest working woman on the CSM. I might not like the corp/alliance that you are affiliated with or like all your suggestions but you do a ton of work for the game and I know that you want to make it better. I really appreciate you voicing some of my questions at the summit and you really love lowsec and tries your best to keep it healthy. I

Sion Kumitomo: You might be a bitter vet but that doesn't stop you from being smart. And you are not just smart you are extremly vocal and will make sure ccp actually acts. I think you have done a great job making sure the csm actually get the information we need so that we can work and you are invaluable for this alone.

Even if I am not elected for CSM I really like the short time I got and I appreciate meeting new people outside my small sphere of small gang pvp/solo pvp.

Do think rookieships should be player built because ships should not spawn out of thin air,
and handing out free ships is a form of capsuleer wellfare ? Cool

Eve online is :

A) mining simulator B) glorified chatroom C) spreadsheets online

D) CCP Games Pay to Win at skill leveling, with instant gratification

I don't really consider free noobships a big problem. I wish there was a button to trash all mine though because they clutter up my assets window :). I don't have a problem with ccp handing out special skins for certain ships like that scorpion but they need to be super transparant about it. Im sure there will be some jelousy but I think that good stuff for the community and the game should be rewarded. The new ship skin system will make it less of a ships spawning out of thin air thing btw.
