***Introduction***
Greetings! I am pleased to say once again that I am going to be putting my name in the hat for the upcoming CSM elections, CSM 12! It's still a bit early, so this thread will more than likely change as new updates and devblogs come out, but I wanted to get out there early and open myself up for questions, conversation, and pretty much anything!
This is my 3yr running, but for thoes who may not know me, let me go ahead and introduce myself! I have been playing Eve since 2011 (minus the one failed account in 2010 ... *close out tutorial* - *undocks* - *promptly gets killed by a rat and quits*). I found out about Eve from Eve Radio and from there other players and staff members helped me get the hang of things and from there I think the rest is history. I was hooked, it was unlike any other game that I have played and I just love it.
Being a active member of the community is something that I am proud of and because of it, I have gotten to meet so many amazing people and it really has become like a second family for me.
A couple of things about me ...
* DJ and Manager at Eve Radio under my alias "DJ Yumene" * The Soul Society Industrial and Logistics Director * Former DeepSpace Alliance Leadership / Sov Manager * Former DeepSpace Alliance Logistics Director * Broadcast4Reps Volunteer Moderator/Staff * Logistics Operator/Owner (DeepSpace Pony Ride) for The Methodical Alliance
I am overall a industrial focused player living in nul-sec sov. I am a miner, manufacturer, logistics pilot, and pretty much anything in between. I so like to say I have done a little bit of 'almost' everything as I have tried my share of different aspects of the game as well; from being a pirate, faction warfare, exploration, mission running, and small gang/large fleet PvP.
So this brings me here once again, asking for your support by placing your vote for me in the upcoming CSM 12 elections in 2017! I still have the passion and drive to wanting to give back to the community and help get our voices out there to CCP.
CSM 11, I was 'very' close to getting a spot on the current CSM, coming in at 15! I am still honored at the amount of support that I got and I hope that I can count on your support again this year again!
***Industrial Focus***
The industrial side of the game still seems to be the more under-appreciated. However I can't say that it isn't getting love, specifically with the number of changes and features that are going to be introduced - I feel that a strong industrial candidate is needed to get our voice out there - where the current CSM members are lacking and has been for the past couple terms.
***Ideas and Thoughts***
Here I'm going to be some of my ideas and thoughts about current topics that I'd love to bring up. There will be a few that I mention here that I also talked about in my thread from last year, however it's something that hasn't really been addressed either.
Planetary Interaction: PI is always going to be one of those things I feel is going to be brought up a bit I feel. I don't remember the last time that PI got any major overhaul, if ever. While it is a mostly passive task, it is still a painful one at that - specifically with all the damn clicking you have to do - and forbid you make a mistake and have to redo everything one by one. Here are some of my ideas:
- (1) Factory Plans/Templates: This would be a way to knock down the amount of clicking you have to do to set up your factories where you could essentially save a pre-set plan to lay them down. - (2) 'Move' Button: A simple move button that will allow you to simply move a structure around instead of having to decommission and then set it back up all over again. - (3) 3D Factory 'Pop-Up': Possibly shrink/remove this. Annoying to have your factories side by side and the 3D pop-up gets in the way of you trying to click the next one. - (4) Resources/Links: Create a possible button where after you set up links that will route the selected resource to all target factories that use that resource. Instead of having to do it one by one. (Example: Extractors set up to gather 'Base Metals' and routed to go to a storage facility. Select on the storage facility and select the base metals that are incoming, then on the bottom have a button called "Route All" which when clicked will create routes that go to all factories that has a schematic loaded requiring that resource - BOOM! One Click!).
Industrial Notification Love: Nearly everything in Eve has notifications, but why no industrial notification love? Indy job ready and needs to be delivered? No notice! PI extractors time runs out? No notification! Moon silo's getting full? No notifications! Where is the indy notification love?

You had me at eve radio. You lost me at messing with PI. After/during world war bee & citadels there was a few months where you could make 10 bil isk a month with 2 accounts doing PI. PI I is a good income for click nerds if we make it too easy these spikes of billions a month will no longer exists. |

PI is a good income, but it's still something that does need a major overhaul. Even when the changes I had proposed, there is still going to be a ton of clicking. I also don't feel that a few changes will change the income rates either.
Right now: You have 4-5 click to make just to set up a initial resource route, not to mention all the clicks to set up links and set up everything (buildings, schematics, ect). You are looking at around 2,000 and upwards to 10,000 clicks per account overall with the current system depending on what you are doing.
What I proposed won't be able to get rid of all the clicking, I don't think anything can. PI will, I feel, always will be the click-fest that it is. With that said tho, PI is also one of the areas that has been pretty much untouched for years, and it really is time for a overhaul - Time to upgrade!

I'm glad you're running again, but I have a few questions and comments.
My first question is this; what do you think the function of the CSM is, and what do you think it should be?
If you had to call one thing your platform, what would it be?

With Steve Ronuken (Fuzzysteve) on the CSM, and a number of other CSM's on CSMXI that are very heavy into mining and production in all areas of space, are you saying that industry doesn't have a voice? I would strongly disagree. In all honesty I disagree with candidates when part of their platform is "insinuate a portion of the playerbase aren't represented", even more so in situations where I think they are currently very adequately represented. I'm much more interested in what makes a candidate feel they are the representation people need rather than the back and forth of "well I'm better than that other guy".
With the introduction of engineering platforms for example, I can see why having a number of industrial focused CSM's would be a bonus, but for someone who doesn't know you, what makes you special in this field? What do you produce? Where do you do it? Do you feel you can represent the higher end industrial players (capital, super, titan)?
Hopefully I don't come off as over critical as I'm not trying to be... you just happen to be first cat off the rank. I will be grilling most candidates to see what their motivations are. :)

Hey Judge! Thank you!
I do plan to keep at it and keep running until I can finally represent the community, and possibly for further terms. I don't give up easily that's for sure. I want to bring up your last point asking what my motivation is. It may sound cheesy, but Eve as a whole has helped me more than I can say. From when I first started with Eve Radio, my corp, my alliance, and the community as a whole. I have grown so much since I gotten to meet people and develop relationships - both online and in real life. Because of the people I have come across, I have been able to open up more than I have ever done before - and that's a lot for me as someone who suffers from crippling social anxiety where I have trouble even leaving the house.
Being able to have the opportunity to do something like this for the community would mean so much to me and it would be a way for me to 'give back' in a way. It's much deeper for me.
So I wanted to say that piece first and get that out there. I also understand that Steve for one is also a industry player, and I love Steve, he's incredible! But he's also focused on high-sec rather than my area, which is nul-sec. The others may have done industry/mining, but if I can recall it's not their main area.
Industry is about 95% of what I do (I have to leave the %5 open for the other stuff I do of course - pvp/pve ratting/ect). I agree 100% that this next term with all the industry features and changes coming that having strong industrial candidates will be a major bonus and even more needed.
If I could call to one thing for my platform ... I know I'm crazy and it most likely out of reach - Comet Mining! It's a topic that's been out there for a while and I have a habit of bringing it up at pretty much all my campaigns so far, and you gave me the perfect opportunity to do so again! Thank you! (See: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=331766 )
Within my corp, I am one of the industry directors and we run one of the main Capital production services for the alliance, and yes, I do help with this. We have built ... off the top of my head, 3 titans, and I believe almost 10 supers. The only thing I haven't done in that part is actually pushing the button to start the titan builds (which I am actually training for now! I will be able to do this in 20 days! I have been sitting on level 4 for ages because capital ship production 5 is a pain in the butt - I WILL PUSH THAT BUTTON!) - so in answer to your question as to being able to represent the higher end industrial players - yes, I do feel I will be able to represent the higher end indy players.
As for where? Well, I can't really give that out - I'm sure you know why

I've known Erika for nearly 4 years now and she's always been a valuable member of our command/logistics structure no matter where we have called home. She's been a dedicated friend and colleague and it was a blast meeting her and getting to know her better this past October at EVE Vegas, where she functioned a reporter of sorts, live-tweeting whatever panel she had chosen to sit in on.
10/10 would vote for Erika Mizune. |

Erika Mizune/DJYumene, helping make EVE great again!
I absolutely agree that the PI stuff does need an overhaul. Not an unbalance or overbalance, just an overhaul. The PI UI system sucks, decommissioning sucks, and there hasn't been anything NEW in years. |

PI does need a major overhaul, yes! It really has been years since anything was really done with PI.
Thank you for the support! <3

I'm sorry but this is insulting for me. Consider I made a very public article discussing the changes to the mining command ships and a very large portion of which made it in the final product.
If you would like to bring up industry specifically I was/am in weekly and sometimes daily discussions with devs about numerous industry topics.
I would also like to point out this post which SPECIFICALLY mentioned the CSM having an impact on the Engineering Complexs which are about as industry as you can get. Furthermore two members on the CSM are literally the logistical leaders for the largest alliance in the game. I'm sorry that industry isn't getting the amount of updates to it you would like to see, but to say it's no getting "any love" or lacking is insulting to the current CSM and their efforts.

That is definitely not how I wanted it to come out. Was poorly worded on my part (which I have went back to try to word it better). Sorry about that. I really do appreciate you guys and what you have been doing - and everything from the current CSM has been great, which has been very refreshing!
What I am trying to say the most is that I would like to see more industry folks on the CSM. There's been a lot of industry updates, changes, additions and now we have upcoming drilling platforms - so I feel that it would be very beneficial to have a more strong industrial minded players to the table.

I was wondering if you could answer some questions.
1. At least one member of the current CSM has stated that citadels make moving capital ships too risk-free. As someone who not only runs her own jump freighter service but is involved in alliance-level logistics, do you think any changes need to be made to citadels where long-distance hauling is concerned?
2. A lot of people, including yourself, think that planetary interaction needs to be revamped. If elected and CCP Seagull were to ask you what priority to give a planetary interaction upgrade, what would you tell her? Should it be a high, medium, or low priority?
3. CCP has made many changes, from new structures to the recent rorqual upgrade, designed to make null sec more self-sufficient industrially. Do you think CCP has done enough, or are there additional changes you would like to see?
4. In your thread, Sullen Decimus was insulted because you didnGÇÖt know about the work that CSM did concerning industry. Honestly, I had not heard anything about any work the CSM did on industry (or much of anything else) either. What do you think the CSM should do to publicize their activities better?
5. As someone who concentrates mainly in null sec, do you think you have enough experience to be able to discuss issues outside of null sec with the developers?
Thank you

Rosewalker, thank you for your questions. I hope I can answer them all below. Sorry for the slow response, I got a bit busy with RL stuff past couple days.
1. At least one member of the current CSM has stated that citadels make moving capital ships too risk-free. As someone who not only runs her own jump freighter service but is involved in alliance-level logistics, do you think any changes need to be made to citadels where long-distance hauling is concerned?
I do agree that citadels have made it more risk free to move capitals, especially with being able to tether to it regardless if it's a ship class that can dock in it or not (ie: cyno a capital on a medium citadel it can't dock in, but with 1 click you are tethered safely anyways) - which I have done this myself. A thought that I had was similar to stations and cyno's (when you cyno onto a station, you have a timer that you have to wait before you can dock up [If you don't think that timer matters: see video ]) - perhaps adding that same timer to citadels and tethering? Probably not a popular idea there (and even myself , not going to lie, I love tethering <3), but it's just a thought that I did have on this instance.
That aside, and on the next part of the question, I don't really think much needs to be changed in reguards to long distance hauling and I think the jump and fatigue timers do well in preventing be able to go from point A to point B in no time.
2. A lot of people, including yourself, think that planetary interaction needs to be revamped. If elected and CCP Seagull were to ask you what priority to give a planetary interaction upgrade, what would you tell her? Should it be a high, medium, or low priority?
I would say that it should be on high priority personally. It's one of those things that literally has had no love. The closest thing that I can think of as of writing this, is the POCO's. It does desperately need a revamp.
3. CCP has made many changes, from new structures to the recent rorqual upgrade, designed to make null sec more self-sufficient industrially. Do you think CCP has done enough, or are there additional changes you would like to see?
It's definitely gotten better for sure. It's hard to say what else I would like to see when we haven't really seen too much of the drilling platforms for one or the other new structures that were talked about yet. On the topic of drilling platforms, I'd also like to see how it would do things like reactions where currently we have to use various types of silo's depending on what we want.
4. In your thread, Sullen Decimus was insulted because you didnGÇÖt know about the work that CSM did concerning industry. Honestly, I had not heard anything about any work the CSM did on industry (or much of anything else) either. What do you think the CSM should do to publicize their activities better?
CCP has said in a few instances that CSM has played an important role in the discussions related to industry and the structures, we also have the 'role call' that are posted of meetings - but I do agree that I would like to see more activity publicized (ie: who/what/extent), but it's hard to say because there are also NDA limitations on what can even be discussed outside.
5. As someone who concentrates mainly in null sec, do you think you have enough experience to be able to discuss issues outside of null sec with the developers?
I do concentrate mainly in nul-sec, but I do feel like do have enough experience, yes, to be able to also discuss issues outside of nul-sec as well. While it has been a while, I have lived and done industry in low-sec as well as high-sec.
Thank you once again!
