I don't want to say who I like among the candidates until all are registered at the end of the nomination period.
What I think people should be looking for is
1) someone who can work with others 2) someone who can represent their views of understands their part of the game 3) someone who communicates well
The current drama in threads about darius and riverini are examples you should take to heart.
do NOT choose someone because they are disliked by someone else.
Vote FOR something, not against
oh . . .
1) I can work well with people 2) I am a probably best described as a hardcore casual carebear. see other posts for my experience 3) I write, a lot, I teach (for a living) communication is what I do
so maybe I am, by the above standards, the right person for you?

quoted from blog comments
Quote:Surely if youGÇÖre going to design a GÇ£dream teamGÇ¥ CSM then youGÇÖre going to want to have at least all major areas of EvE covered, so out of the 7 that will speak to CCP face-to-face youGÇÖll want: 1 null-sec CSM (possibly 2 GÇô with 1 with null indy experience and 1 with null PvP experience), 1 low-sec CSM, 1 WH CSM and 1 high-sec CSM.
I would have this as a core team as this would (hopefully!) guard against 1 kind of play dominating over others, and should give most people in EvE a voice on the CSM.
The additional CSM seats should be chosen with regards to how CCP wants to develop EvE during there time as CSM, and as the next theme for EvE will be GÇ£WarGÇ¥ IGÇÖd say these should be additional low-sec/null-sec PvPers (ideally someone with a lot of experience with faction warfare as this area seems to be a problem GÇô even to me a full-blooded carebear!) as these people are at War more than most! These GÇ£specialistsGÇ¥ would change as CCP change the direction of EvE.
The 7 who make up the 2nd layer of the CSM would be broadly similar to the first, although they would allow for a broader coverage of play styles which would hopefully cover anyone not represented by the 1st 7.
An idea that might also be helpful is the idea of using the 2nd 7 CSMGÇÖs as a GÇÿreserveGÇÖ team for the 1st 7, so if there was someone who went quiet or had to leave EvE while a CSM then they could step in and represent the players to CCP face-to-face.
Personally IGÇÖm not sure who would fill each position but if you had this as a guide then it might help people to decide who to vote for. - cw
Yup, though you put it better that is exactly the sort of thing I was thinking about.
Coverage as opposed to a solid wall and a group that refer to itself in the singular. 'The CSM said'
But I want a variety of talents beyond just where they fly in space. Trebor's skills at crowd sourcing, I'd like Teadaze back for the speed he put up minutes, and yes dammit The Mittani for his back room deals and planning. You want somone who can be passionate and someone else who can be cold and calculating. You need a joker and somoene bordering on OCD serious.
Alex and Roc and myself have all said it. WE ARE NOT ELECTING DEVS. stop looking to the CSM to design the solution to problems. Our job will be to convince the people who are DEVS and their bosses to do the right things.

Grumpy If you are looking for my opinion on Malcanis's vision of Bounty hunting I think it is an excellent one. Anything would be better than the junk in place right now.
I especially like the idea that a corp could form about bounty hunting as their core purpose.
There are some niggling things like what if the target is in a ship more expensive than the contractee could afford to bounty out?
All in all it is an excellent start, though and would revive a dead end portion of the game that has been ignore for too long.

Botting
Even fanatical miners agree it is bad for their business driving the market down. What we cannot prove is how much of it is really going on. Me, I would like to see another day of wrath and again examine the spike or dip in the markets as a result. I do NOT believe that the botting is needed to keep the game alive but if CCP does not respond in force they are giving tacit approval for it.
Connected to the bounty ops above would be an alternative. If CCP does not want to risk ban-hammer then issue bounties that can be removed if you can prove you are real, not a bot. Otherwise it is hunting time . . . and oh will some folks enjoy the hunt. I know the devs have access to stats etc that can spot a bot like behaviour but I think mining itself needs to be revamped as long term mining can make some humans almost bot like in their actions forcign them closer and closer to the pass/fail border of a turing test.
tl:dr I want to see the bots burn

Well Ripard Teg pegged me as the only Incursion Candidate.
I think we can safely discount D3 from claiming that honour.
Are incursions perfect? No. Do they need a massive nerf? Also no.
Do Vanguards needs some renbalance to put effort and reward more inline as you go up the scale of fleet size and enemy composition, Hell yes

Given no other references then a person might try to pigeonhole me with some simple label. The point is the people mentioned above did not take the basic effort to even look at the simplest available information.
I have reported on the CSM doings for years and this is my third election. By his own definition of the term Trebor mislabeled me as a newbie.
I write in character and I enjoy the storyline possibilities but I am not one who makes . . . questionable decisions based on that rp. (I am looking at you CVA) I run Incursions often enough to be considered an incursion runner. Most of the isk I make is given back to the community in the form of draws in this blog.
My largest source of income has been the writing (Thank you Chocolate heaven for the 2.75 billion) so this works for me.
What box should I make for myself? I am a cooperative player who wants to see the whole game made better. I am a player who has experience (of various levels) in high low and null. I currently spend most of my time flying my main in wormholes/incursions and my alt in low.
I am a player of the game . . . like you. I find it unlikely that you read this and don't play Eve (Except for maybe Mynxee, you still there?) I am an educated man with a good imagination and a wish to be a part of a larger aspect of the game, the CSM. I am NOT a Dev. I do not have solutions to fix ****-sec space. I do look beyond simple bandaids and try to see the ramifications, the exploits, the ripple and butterfly effects of a simple tweak.
I am a player of Eve and I want to represent players like myself on the CSM. Not for tears, not for some huge group of players from some out of game forum . . . just the regular casual players . . . you know, the ones who don't even know there is an election on? The ones who log on, hav esome fun in a small corp and log off. The sailors on the surface of the sea who hear stories of the depths but never dive. Them
Us
There is no wasted vote. There is no way to box a man or a woman in a few paragraphs. There is no spoon.
Vote, for me or someone else. Read the platforms, do Dierdra Vaal http://match.eve-csm.com/ and find someone who will represent you, not laugh at you or call you names. There are seven seats in the CSM, Fill them wisely as they are there for you. m |
