If i understand this right... R&D is a lottery every RP is a ticket....
now the problem that halts getting bpos in eve is....
unactive characters... on unactive acounts... owned by people that dont play anymore... get a lot of RP, every day... and they keep em too, that would mean they have more chance of winning every day...
and if they win every day... and dont accept the offer... nobody gets a bpo right... they slowly halt the research... more and more intensive... as the RPs pile up
couldnt there be something like... a mission that you have to do every 2 weeks, or else your reseearch would get halted, your tickets wouldnt be active (you would keep RP as they are in reserve.. but you wouldnt really compete for the bpos until you did that mission)

Keep it simple. Got enough crap getting offered by agents as it is.Play as and when you want to and not because you have to. Pay your bill and have your thrill.

and if they win every day... and dont accept the offer... then the bpo gets put back in the lottery... then someone else gets the offer... ^ Thats how it works ---------------------------

are you sure cause.. an offer takes some time... and if its not declined... somebody else doesent get the bpo in the same round... on the next periodic even... lets say next day.. its a new lotery... the previous was allready waisted.... and that means that instead of 30 bpos a month coming out.... 2 come out.... and the number is decreasing...

Edited by: Kai Lae on 06/03/2005 21:16:58 I'd still like to see it changed so that instead of each "ticket" having an equal chance to win, that the chance to win is changed to however many RP you got, combined together, that's what your percentage is. In other words, with the total pool of RP out there, if you have 20k RP, you say have a 1% chance. If you have 80k RP, you have a 4% chance. The number of RP is treated as a block. That at least would mean that people that have been plugging away the longest have the best chances.
And, yes, if you don't accept the offer you lose it. We had a guy go on vacation, and that's why we don't have the BPO for the improved cloak right now.
