I think its nice ccp adds a little spice to the game, though I would have prefered to be able to find BPC's for the ships in some new exploration sites or even LP store items
I always wanted to tru the guardian vexor when i was a noob and pretty much gave up on the idea a while back. This feels like good news to someone who hasnt played from the beginning. |

Idiotic. There is no other word to describe it.
If you want to hand out unique ships, create unique ships to hand out. Don't ruin the uniqueness of ships already in the game, even if they're so unique they've been lost forever. In fact, GÇ£lost foreverGÇ¥ is the best reason to not do so since there is no legendary status that will ever beat that and since no game will ever offer the same.
Give Somer some Bronze Magnates and Steward Vexors if you have to, but let the historical ships be historical. GÇ£If you're not willing to fight for what you have in GëívGëí you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.GÇ¥

We can't think of real content so lets just favor one group of players and give away rare ships. CCP spent all Alliance tournament talking about how ships are really destroyed. I guess the small print was until they decide to play favorites and give them away.
The Gold Magnate made me feel like decisions in EVE have consequences. Now i feel like CCP is turning away from that with many recent decisions, and it is making me worried. |

Ten years ago, there was an event considerably more interesting than this one. At this event, the Gold and Silver magnates were given out. Please don't undermine the efforts of those players who won these ships, and the history that goes with them, by giving them out in a lottery. It's probably the worst distribution method because it requires no special skills or talents. Besides, if you go back to what happened in 2003, almost ten years to the day, you'll find that CCP's communication then indicated that the Gold Magnate was a one-of-a-kind. Since then, several pieces of communication have indicated that no more would be released.
Why is it that some CCP employees have no sense of the history of the game? Nor are they aware of the significance which certain players and groups have created around events that took place in the past or objects in the game world? Further, why must events be so bland as to involve winning what would probably rank in the top 5 of the most expensive ships in Eve simply by entering your name in a pot? An Eve Dissertation |

Re-introducing items that were supposed to be unique is a bad idea. It breaks the 'harshness' aspect of the game, it breaks lore, it breaks the actions-consequence nature of eve. If you want to do something silly, introduce silver or platinum magnate or Hello Kitty Armageddon. Just don't reintroduce anything. Even I as a relatively new player can see that.
Bad, bad idea. |

Turning EVE History into dust is a very bad idea. Those ships were and are rarities and must remain as such. I for one am not at all happy with what is going down with re-introducing these ships. No CCP, please, be honest and stay true to EVE.

They said that about Gold Magnate.
as far as I know they haven't said it about the guardian vexor so I have no problem with them releasing more of those, even if lottery is a pretty stupid way to go about it |

but its not simply just entering your name in a pot, its by entering your name in a pot controlled by a player, there is a big difference.
CCP, if you want to release these ships (and wether you should or not is a completely different topic imo), then do it on an account basis, 1 account = 1 possible entry, period. |

"..is extremely important for keeping players happy.."
I can imagne CCP Devs got a bombardment of whining petitions of players every day who want to fly/have superare ships without effort or can't/don't want pay for them. Please CCP, don't open that door. It ruins a part of Eve's precious atmosphere severely. |

CCP, if you'll recall, doubled-down on Incarna and $60 monocles, until someone in the company said "Hey, we're actually losing accounts over this. A lot of accounts."
Since I doubt people are going to cancel accounts over this ... the Gold Magnates are not going to vanish from your prize pool. I might as well get a couple tickets in there.
But I will ***** about their decision in the meanwhile ... so hopefully it never happens again. Amarr Militia - Fweddit - http://fweddit.com Poetic Discourse - http://poeticstanziel.blogspot.com |

Just to throw my 2 cents into the ring...
It's a bloody gold ship, that's it... nothing special other than it's gold and rare. The fact that after all these years we are not able to simply paint our ships with whatever color scheme we want is a joke. There is no lore reason stating that someone could not come along and manufacture new magnates with a golden hue so whatever.
Guardian Vexor on the other hand is a different issue.... while having a few more in the world does make the world more interesting I can honestly say I wish they were different in such a way that they could be told apart. Perhaps remove a low slot, add a mid slot and call it a Siege Vexor. |

I believe Somer Blink is probably 99% fair. I have no idea if there's a 1% of the time that Somer rewards himself or protects his profit margins with some shady "random-number generation." Apparently CCP can't be sure either. Which is what makes this baffling. They could have easily run their own raffle (they've done so in the past), but elected to give Somer the opportunity to makes themselves much richer.

Let's face the truth. There will be only 2 Goldmagnates and 4 x Guardian Vexors. At the end ISK is the deciding aspect. Some ultraspacerich guys/collectors will buy almost all tickets and win, or the average pilot wins one of those rare ships and sells it for some billions (trillions) to another superspacerich collector. Finally, the ships are as rare as before, and will collect dust in hangars like the others. So will the Goldmagnates. |

Adding two Gold Magnates is one (daft and un-eve) thing but adding them via a third-party-lottery-site is the height of silly.
Less favoritism please. |
