When it comes down to it, representing more of the playerbase than anyone else, both in that election and historically, by sheer numbers and by the proportion of both voters and accounts, counts as irrefutably representing the playerbase within the confines of this electoral debate. If you cannot understand that, there is nothing more I can do to enlighten you.


It represents a confidence from the electorate not the playerbase.

The fact that the playerbase is apathetic to the CSM process does not or should not confer confidence to the political emphasis however. It is a lack of confidence if anything.

hello, my statistics-impaired friend

given the magnitude of the mittani's victory, and the amount of votes cast, the mittani's mandate is about as strong as one can get; the amount of votes cast makes the results accurate for a confidence interval of 1% with 99% confidence level; in other words, a stronger endorsement than most scientific studies

in other words, the polling of the playerbase done through the CSM votes indicates to a higher degree of statistical certainty that The Mittani represents the people of EVE than studies you need to get a cancer drug FDA approval


What has FDA scientific approval got to do with EvE spaceships and CSM candidates?

At best shouldn't you be comparing it to presidential candidacies, senate, parliamentary or other democratic representation of individuals representing constituancies?

We love the FDA they approve all sorts of chemicals that are good for us.

At least the EVE counterpart lets us get accurate labeling of all boosters.

I am, of course, referring to statistics, and the statistical meaning of The Mittani's landslide victory and how sure we can be that it represents the will of EVE Players. Given the landslide nature of his victory, and the number of votes cast relative to the number of voters, we can deduce how likely it is that the results accurately represent a now undeniable fact: The Mittani is considered by EVE players to be the best representative for EVE players.

Interesting that you naturally assume direct correlation of hidden opinion. I would say you need hard evidence to prove a trend and not speculation. As I can easily also use an alternative crystal ball to prove the opposite according to your application of statistical theory. Especially when we a looking at a very low sample. Blink

You'd do well to find anything sloganlike that Goering did not fiddle with something along the lines of. But typical of our beloved leader would perhaps be "Where there's a problem, there's a man. No man. No problem."

Yes, D3 is running on the 'Scamming is good' platform, everyone knows this, he got on the CSM the same way last year. No need to dirty up this thread with it.

Also, FYI, posting chatlogs is a violation of the rules, you might want to edit that out and post a link to a page with the chat on it Lol

I thought about it and still concluded the mittani is an idiot. Thank you for letting us have the opportunity to think about a candidate so specifically.

Especially one who has serious limitiations and could never be considered as a renaissance man.

Who even has a problem understanding notable renaissance history and yet claiming to do so with obvious ignorance:

I daresay my friend, you seem to be quoting some dimwitted fellow who got utterly owned on how to use a dictionary because it did not know the meaning of machivellian. I might suggest you pick more reliable sources that will not send the people you link them into hysterics over what an idiot your source is.
