+1 for Bam.
The difference between Bam and everyone else is:
Bam doesn't have to make promises about what he will do for eve players in a future that has not happened.
He can just point to the past and show what he has already done for eve players.
Docked since 2009.

The real question on everyone's mind: does Bam tie his kangaroo down?

We don't talk about Rolf anymore... :\ And for what it's worth, I prefer my kangaroos free range. And then medium rare.
But tying them down? Those bros are tooswole.

Thanks to Cap Stable for interviewing me, and for all the good work they do to shine the spotlight on would-be CSM members & inform the community. <3
Also, gotta bwarp my own euphonium: I received an award! I picked up the "Community MVP" award in Noir.'s Black Mark Awards for 2014. http://declarationsofwar.com/dow-90-vegan-minutes-part-i/ @ 17:29. Pretty chuffed!

Hi Bam -
In our occasional chats on Slack or Twitter or seeing the many comments of others, I have no doubt that you will work hard and bring value. That said, my #1 concern about your candidacy (or that of any AUTZ person, frankly) is the ability to deal with near-realtime communication, especially in this faster dev cycle.
I live in the midwest US and play more on Pacific time, and I find the speed of things even on Twitter and Slack during their work day hard to keep up with. How does the Icelandic workday translate to your schedule and what is your plan to make sure you don't end up out of the loop, however unintentionally, if you come on while all the CCPers are asleep?

Hey Rhavas, thanks for your question.
The time difference can be awkward but it's not insurmountable by any means and in fact it has some perks. As it happens the Icelandic work day aligns nicely with the AUTZ evening. By the time I hop on the PC in the evening after work the devs are usually arriving at the office.
In the last two years I've been in regular communication with devs like Guard and Falcon on Skype to discuss matters related to EVE Down Under and I've found the way our timezones overlap to actually be really convenient since I can spend my free time (i.e. when I'd be doing most of my CSM work) talking with them while they're in the office.
I usually have Skype, Slack, Jabber and whatever else I need running on my computer at work as well. I'm pretty much open for business 18 hours a day (contrary to what Nosy Gamer and Random McNally said on Cap Stable's 4th CSM analysis show, I do actually sleep sometimes). I'm writing this reply to you from my office now, in fact.
As for summits - if I weren't invited to attend in person - the sessions usually run from my evening into the very early AM. However, as I've demonstrated by watching every match of the last two ATs and NEOs live I'm clearly not afraid of putting in an all-nighter where internet spaceship matters are concerned.
I'm running for CSM X because I want to empower the community builders of New Eden and help make a richer social environment both in and out of game. I'll need your support.

Bam supported our fledgling Canberra community for our first ever Canberra meetup last year and he is supporting us again for our second meet next month. He provided advertising of the event through the EVE Downunder FB page, in game EDU MOTD, the EDU radio show and some awesome prizes through eve-bet.com for people that turned up.

It was such a pleasure to listen to Bam speak about his Eve community work on the hydrostatic podcast I can't recommend that enough. He comes across as such an enterprising guy. Along with the Sugars and the Corbexes, Bam is getting my vote. |

After researching all of the 77 candidates, Bam is one of only nine to earn a full endorsement from me. He's on my list and he should be on yours.

Think Bam would make an incredible asset to the CSM. His accomplishments are well known to the wider community and he has done so much without even being on the CSM.. imagine what he can do while being ON the CSM.
Full Endorsement from me. |

I've known Bam for, gosh, it's got to be getting close to four years now, and he is, without doubt, my first-vote candidate.
I first met him in game up in Syndicate, when he was flying with Moon Warriors. We met, as often happens, by shooting each other. I was still in Agony, and especially during the AU TZ, it was often hard to find fights, but we knew if Bam Stroker was online, he'd form up a Moon Warriors gang and bring a good fight. He was always clever and cute in local, win or lose, and eventually, he and RDNx invited me to be a guest on the EveDownUnder radio show.
We had so much fun together on that episode that Bam and RDNx invited me to come back any time, which I did, and continue to do so to this day. Both of them, especially Bam, encouraged me to get more involved with the AU TZ community at large, and over time, we became fast friends.
When I left Agony to start up my community service corporation, Redemption Road, Bam (along with RDNx) was one of the first to step up and support the effort, spreading the word as only he can do.
He was the first to join me in my crazy idea of putting a team in the NEOII, tirelessly practiced throughout Affirmative's ATXII attempt, helps me organize and spread the word about our AU TZ public roams, continues to man the helm of the EveDownUnder radio show, is a key organizer of the EveDownUnder meetup, and somehow manages to attend and help organize meetups throughout Australia.
He even made it to EveVegas in 2014, where I got to meet him in person and spent lots of time together.
I mention all this because he's much more than "just" a community guy, he's a pilot of skill with a wide range of experiences in the game. Many candidates say they "understand" lowsec, nullsec, highsec, wormhole space... many claim to represent and "know" all sides of the game. He ACTUALLY DOES. He understands what it's like to be the little guy struggling to just survive the day without losing a ship. He feels the pain of multi-day fatigue timers. He knows what it is like to hunt in lowsec, grind sov space, run a corporation, lead an alliance, fly in the arena. He "gets" Eve.
But more than that, he has become one of my dearest friends.
Bam Stroker will, without doubt, be as dedicated to the CSM as he is to every thing he puts his mind to. He has proven time and again his love and commitment to the community at large, NOT just the Australian time zone community. He's tireless, hard working, intelligent, loyal, honorable, selfless, and fair. He also has a wicked sense of humor, something it seems the CSM could use at times He has a remarkable ability to see both sides of any debate, to put the needs of others in front of his own needs, to follow through on his word, and to always, always, remember it's about all of us, the community of Eve.
I have no doubt that Bam will be an outstanding CSM member, and he has my heartfelt and enthusiastic endorsement.

You need a gang to game this mechanic, six corpies should do it. Use Eve meetup, make sure that Bam is hosting. In turn hang away from the group, dictating range is key, to split Bam from the blob. He'll escort you to the bar and then you buy him a drink, this is vital, then hand off to another corpie and repeat: result Bam off his face!
Vote Bam ;) |
