So, I was buying my groceries this afternoon, and I spot a guy wearing an EVE T-shirt. Thankfully he could tell my Danish was a bit crap and switched to English. Bumping into EVE players may not be rare for some people, but I live at the top of Denmark, in a town so tiny it doesn't even have a cinema. So the odds of bumping into another player is slim to say the least.
This guy, however, turned out to have played from day 1, and currently has 112million SP. The odds of bumping into any EVE player was remote enough, but surely the number of people still playing from release must be tiny!
So, where have you bumped into people that play EVE?

Friend of a friend was visiting said latter friend, me and said latter friend were arguing, friend of friend was holding back his urge to make a comment about the argument. I pushed him and he made a comment comparing the length of the argument to the time between the BoB Disband and their Reform as Kenzoku.
I was in sheer shock. _____________________________________ Haruhiist since December 2008

Exterminator.
No, seriously. My roommate at the time and I were having some pest issues, and when the exterminator arrived, we were on some CTA or another, so I let the exterminator know we were a bit busy with the game. He asked what we were playing, so I told him EVE, so he responded, "Really? I've been playing that game for about two years," and asked what we did in EVE, asked about what corp/alliance we were in, etc.
It was pretty random, but kinda cool.

Me either, but with only around 60k active players* spread out across the planet there's little chance to stumble upon other players accidentally.
*yes people, I know ccp likes to think there's a real live person behind each and every one of the 310k accounts but anyone who plays the game knows most of those accounts are alts.

At work.
Had a sales coach coming to sit in on some of my client calls, he sees me reading some forums before we get started and asks me what I'm reading about. Tell him it's a game I play, internet spaceships and shooting people in the face kind of stuff. So, we get down to the calls, and while I'm on the phone with a client, he scribbles down two character names and tells me to add him to the buddy list when I get home. Knew the guy for ages before this, but we'd never talked games.

Edited by: Ben Derindar on 15/03/2010 22:21:07 On a work-related mailing list I subscribe to, I remember a discussion a few months back about how best to describe time when organising people overseas for meetings or whatever, to use your time or theirs etc, and how people do it in casual situations as well as in business.
Well, I dared to mention that in the MMO I play, I'd become accustomed to thinking in GMT/UTC when arranging ops. A few minutes later I was directly e-mailed by someone asking which MMO it was out of curiosity, saying she plays Eve Online.
So it wasn't a literal bumping-into-anyone, but still a cool surprise.

In a police car. 
When I was dating my ex she crashed her car into a ditch after she picked me up from work. A copper gave us a ride back to my home and while talking he asked me what I do to get through the long shift as I worked night-shift as a security officer. My ex unenthusiastically mentioned that I spend all my working hours playing a computer game called Eve (she hated it) and to my surprise the copper started talking about how he was an Eve player too. As my ex was outnumbered 2 to 1 she kept quiet.

I meet other EVE players routinely. Though it helps to have the Gurista Bunny tattoo'd on my left forearm and the 4 Empire logo's on my right forearm. Mall. Grocery store. Pet store. In line at the movies. Once in a corner store.
First one was about a year and a half ago.
"Hey, is that the Gurista Bunny?" "Yup." "Cool....So How long you played?" "2 years so far" "So Bob or Goons?"
The conversation when downhill from there. :)

A couple of the guys at my local TA base have Guristas tops, though I haven't really had much chance to chat with them since my time at the base is usually spent fixing things.

I was randomly playing EVE while deployed, and a guy in my unit goes 'Oh, you play eve too?' He'd been in my unit for about 6 or more months by that point so it was kind of interesting. A lot of military actively play EVE.

Ofc since i have used to work with that i tend to have a lot of fun with them and just drag on a conversation.This combined with me being very bored and still having an hour to wait lead the conversation to drag on and turned out that he was an eve player as well :) He was cute to actually.

Not exactly weird but I did have a near-miss on the train today! Spotted a bloke getting on the same train as me wearing a black EVE Online shirt. He ended up getting on the next carraige.
Would have been funny to distract him by holding up the E-ON magazine to my face that I was reading.
Other than that, never encountered any EVE players in real life.

I was at wine tasting party and I met an ex player on EVE.
During the course of the night, we started to talk about EVE. He never got into the game because when he first started, the first time he went into lowsec he was ganked 4-1, so he pretty much ragequit over that.
..so naturally.. 
I started telling pirate stories packed with extra lopsided gank. Freighters, CNRs, Hulks in highsec, blah blah blah...
No lie, made him incredibly angry and shouting at the top of his lungs at me no less than three times that night from various stories.  *** Currently Playing: Trolls from Outer Space Current Equipment: VISAcard chain mail, +2 Amulet of Epic Whine, Self Banstick +2 WTB: +666 E-peen killboard stats |

Edited by: Sarajo on 16/03/2010 10:35:01 A year or so ago I was hanging out with some friends, some of which play WoW a lot. they were talking about some weird stuff that happened and they thought it sucked they could'nt do anything about it because of the weird pvp mechanics there are in that game.
During this conversation I was checking my characters on my iPhone with the capsuleer app and offhandedly mention something like 'you guys should play EVE instead, you can totally shoot everything there'. While they did'nt respond another dude (that i've known for ages) looks at me surprised and turns around his iPhone, which had capsuleer running on it. Fun ensued comparing our characters and habits.

He explained the entire of this game called 'eve online' to me, then finally the slogan and how it all fit in. I nodded the whole time, then right at the end, extended my hand.

Most interesting was when I was up in barrow, north slope worker trying to get a stable connection to change a skill in the airport. (In Barrow, airport = landing strip and shed)
Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria?
Probably not but i remember being surprised that the place has an airport when i moved there, the airport fits your description too.

I remember when I did alliance tournament IV, about a week after I got back I went into my local McDonalds (with firebeanie about my person, along with a Gallente Federation tshirt) and the guy literally in front of me in the queue turned around and was just randomly like "Hi Verone, I saw you on Eve TV".
I almost **** myself, hahaha. We then ended up spending like an hour sat in McDonalds, talking crap and eating lunch. His name escapes me but the guy who used to be with Setenta Corp.
Funniest thing is, I got home from that, kind of like "Woah, that was surreal!" and logged into Eve. My inbox was flashing and I had new mail, from a completely different person. The mail said "Mate, do you live in Peterlee? My little brother just came in the house this afternoon like 'You'll never guess who I just saw in Woolworths down the town!'
I was laughing my ass off all day after that.

I've meet a lot of people who play EVE. Sadly no one I know first hand in game prior to meeting them in IRL. I have meet some who know me / my corp though... Even randomly ran into some of the CVA / provi guys back in my pirating of Lower Domain days prior to joining BDCI. I found that a little awkward though tbh... wasn't sure if they'd scream Amarr victor at me or something ;). Most of the random encounters I've had with EVE players were during my military days... they are everywhere in the US Military. Oddly enough they almost all (in my experience) turn out to be carebears or people who are removed from 0.0 political games. Go figure. Also ran into folks in places like stores, malls, parks, and... I guess I just have an EVE player radar.
None that counts the planned stuff of course. If you count in planned stuff then I've meet a lot more and had a few EVE players crashing on my living room floor even. -----

It turned out we are both from croatia and from the same city... ..whats more fascinating..even from the same neighbourhood... :D ... Didnt meet him irl afterwards and i am glad about this... ...coz its a rough neighbourhood and after the kill i really had to go buy some tobacco... ...

I work with a guy who tried EVE, failed epically and emoragequit back to WOW. His whiny excuse with that you must be a math major to play.
My wife met a guy from Iceland at a business convention and he was very excited to hear that I play EVE. They had a rather long discussion about the game and CCP. Though I don't remember if he actually played.

[107]
I go to RIT (uni. in USA) and when I made my first corporation (Deaf Rights Advocates) with two other members that I am good friends with IRL - whom I got into the game. Later, I get an offer to merge into somebody's similar deaf-friendly, no-VOIP corporation which was named United Federation of Deaf. I despised this corp and the CEO of the corp because he made his corp AFTER I made mine and then has the nerve to ask me to join his corp!
So anyways... I got approached by two people who 'kinda' knew me at RIT and asked if I was Nonexistent Face. It was really strange because I never mentioned I was from RIT in ANY of my posts before this post. They were able to tell that I was Nonexistent Face, but whatever. I thought it was pretty cool.
...and it doesn't end there. My brother calls me and says 'Yo, did you start a deaf corp or something in eve online?' Mind you, my brother doesn't even play EVE. I kept trying to get him into it, but I knew he wouldn't be fit for the slow-style of this game - but his roommate at his college does play EVE. I've never met this roommate but I've played with him on WoW, and somehow he was able to tell that I was Nonexistent and then asked my brother to call me up. Weird stuff!
...and nope, it doesn't stop there!!! Turns out the CEO of the other corporation, whom at this point I hated, actually attended RIT and my best friend (one of the two friends that joined EVE with me) has talked with him before. I dropped my hatred for him and merged into his corp and now we're basically like 75% RIT-goers, BUT around 100% RIT-goers or RIT-graduates.
So basically, all the members we have in here now, applied to the corp, found out that we all went to RIT/NTID, and admitted they used to go there too in the past.
Weird stuff man.

Hmm, most RL players I've met have been here at uni, couple of classmates and the odd random person who caught me checking the website. Weirdest one was back in high school, in the middle of a physics lesson, me and a friend got talking, he'd only just started EVE and was surprised to find out I already played. We got into a discussion about the pros and cons of various Caldari ships. Suddenly realised that our physics teacher had been stood at the front of the room staring at us silently for about the last minute. We both went quiet, suddenly he brightens up and tells us to cross-train Amarr for homework, since lasers are cooler.
Needless to say, physics lessons were a lot more interesting after that...

I was in a bakery (a very busy one) in Rome center. As i was in line my phone rings, its a friend from Poland, who is pretty allarmed and tells me something on the lines of "pos shields are down and xx", concerned i start asking things, mentioning assets stargate safespots, and a Dominix, I tell him i'll be home soon and hang up. Right after a man , must have been on the 30s asks me "do you play eve online?" i reply yes, he then promptly asks me "how many skillpoints? I have 8milions!" I felt a bit sorry when I replied him "50milions" back then, I picked a croissant from the bag i had just purchased and handed it to him and said " Fly safe, you'll get there eventually" smiled, and walked towards the exit saying "sorry! POS troubles!".
Other than that i've met a few in various restaurants/pubs but those were all "planned" meetings

Two of my class mates at my first college tried to get me to play, but I was hesitant at the time.
Graduated from college and moved on to uni, and I met an eve player between classes at a coffee shop. I caught a glimpse of something EVE related, I don't even remember what it was, and was like, "Hey, is that EVE online?" Then he asked me, "What, you play?" so I showed him my screen where I was ratting in a Drake in Pureblind. By this point I was in the same corp as my old college mates as well.
Turned out he was in Geminate I think it was. I still have him in my address book somewhere....

I've only gotten someone hooked on EVE, who then went on to find another EVE player in the same college course and then recruit someone in my current class.
I'm told someone at a local PC parts store plays EVE and I'd order an EVE shirt (etc) as a bat-signal to them, but I'm afraid he might have retired by the time it turns up ...
Slightly more surreal though, was when I was linked to a (legitimate) online news article reporting the RL homicide of a man who I recognised as being my first CEO in EVE (he was a prick anyway).

While talking to approach control, I was placed in a holding pattern to wait for a couple US Army black hawks (there is a guard base on the field) to cross over the active and clear the airspace. When the controller instructed me, "Hold north of the VOR for traffic." I replied "Wilco." and while the PTT was still down, I said quickly and softly "waiting for session change." Once around the hold and the controller cleared me down saying, "Cleared for approach back course 23. Still not as bad as Jita." I replied, "Cleared back course 23. This is why I fly caps." I went up to the tower and had a chat with him, we had some good jokes about EvE. It was few years ago and he no longer plays though :(

I just remembered another occasion:
I was applying for a job as a programmer at Testronic Labs and the boss asked me if I had any other job applications running.
Being honest I replied that I had submitted my information to a company in Iceland.
He immediately replied "You mean CCP?" , I was surprised and after some chatting it seems CCP just showed some interest in Venus Blue (a MMORPG testing platform). He told me that if everything worked out I might just get to fly to Iceland and cooperate with CCP itself.
Ofcourse I took the job.
Sadly enough the work environment wasn't good. Lot of ****ty on-the-side jobs that were far below my education, disgruntled co-workers and CCP losing interest.... so I left after a while.
To think I came that close to working with CCP... shame.

Edited by: Don ZOLA on 17/03/2010 09:33:23 I was out with friends getting wasted. After couple of hours we got the brilliant idea to go on hookers. So there we were in the middle of the bordel, continuing to drink and being surrounded by hot chicks.
My mates started spreading out going to rooms with *****es when i noticed one ***** separated on the bar. She seemed to be depressed and ugleh and dunno why (prolly cuz of my brain state at that particular moment) i went to her.
As soon as i get closer and sit near her i realise why she is separated and solo (and sad too), she was really fugly and looked more like a man then a woman. Ah well i was wasted and continued to chat and giggle with her and proceed to drink. She asked me to go to room and her eyes begged me to accept. For a moment i was F*CK NO, but then being separated from my brain a thought went trough my mind "hey this is not the first ugly chick i`ll bang and not the last either anyway, ill do her a favour".
As i accept i see the shine in her eyes. We go to room and she starts some sucky sucky which was suprisingly good. Then when she felt im ready she put herself in doggy position and i mount her. As i start pounding her doggy style i realise there is something wrong, i felt my prides 2 partners touch something that wasnt supposed to be there. Quick check and i realise we have a tranny situation! And i burst in laughter, laughing to myself for being so stupid for not realising it before when it was obvious.
He asked me if im mad, i said no. I decided to continue as im paying for it anyway. So i continue pounding and trying to enjoy the situation, as i got a bit mad about the whole situation i go harder and harder. And then...
He started moaning and saying "Vindicator" i was like WTF IS THIS CANDY CAMERA OR WHAT!!
I turn im around smack his face once and asked what the f*ck is he mentioning in moans/screams? He said "a ship". 
What does a ship has to do with us having sex here? He said that ship makes him horny. I played dumb and asked what kind of ship it is. He answered that its a spaceship.
I went directly to the point. Whats your char name?
Silence... Dont be shy, say it.... still silence. I smack his face "WHATS YOUR CHARACTER NAME *****"

My friend was going bowling with a bunch of people from his Japanese course at Uni, and managed to con me into coming. I expected a gaggle of withering weeaboos but was pleasantly surprised that it was mostly normal people (I am told this was because the first-years weren't invited, and the worst get weeded out by the fact that the stuff is p. hard).
Shortly after I arrive, one guy says "oh hey, I know you". Turns out he knew me from EVETV. I had to spend some fifteen minutes convincing him I'm not actually a mouthbreathing ****** that punches kittens.
When we left, I noticed my shoes felt weird (and less worn). I think I accidentally stole his shoes. ---

During my second year of college, I was sitting in my room late one night playing EVE. One of the guys in our hall walked by our room (we had the door open) and stopped in because he thought he saw something on my room mates computer that looked like EVE. It wasnt and he turned to walk out and saw my computer and said "Holy ****, you play EVE?" Turns out he lived 2 rooms down from me and we had been living there for almost a full year and didnt know that each other played EVE. Since then we have become good friends.  --------------

The defendant at the first court martial I attended was an Eve player. I was a brand new defense counsel just watching the trial. The defendant described how he met this girl while playing an on-line roleplaying game called Eve. My boss was like "what the heck is that?" I explained to him what Eve was. Then I gasped, because the defendant said what his name in the game was, and I realized I had probably killed him about 4 times during some recent fleet battles. It's a small universe. Oh, and he got found not guilty. I still see him and his girlfriend log in from time to time. ...this doesn't even seem to be a regular case of rats fleeing the sinking ship. Seems more like the rats are on fire, the ship is on fire, and the sea is full of drunk Russians. - Jacob Etienne |

I walked up to him and said "Maelstrom, shield-tanked, 800mm cannon setup". For a second I thought he was going to punch me, then he started laughing. Thank goodness he didn't expect his ISK back...

Walked into a Wetherspoons in London and there were all these EVE players 
... ok seriously, three of us (one of whom does not play EVE) were in a pub (not in London) and the friend of mine who does not play EVE was wearing a T-Shirt with a logo which looked similar to the EVE logo.
So some random guy at the bar asks if he plays EVE Online. My mate responds: "I don't, but I know some who do", and calls the two of us over.
Not the strangest place, but certainly the strangest way I've met another EVE player.  _____________________

When I was dating my ex she crashed her car into a ditch after she picked me up from work. A copper gave us a ride back to my home and while talking he asked me what I do to get through the long shift as I worked night-shift as a security officer. My ex unenthusiastically mentioned that I spend all my working hours playing a computer game called Eve (she hated it) and to my surprise the copper started talking about how he was an Eve player too. As my ex was outnumbered 2 to 1 she kept quiet. 
I am pleased you are no longer with her.

I worked for almost 2 years with a guy and never knew he played eve. One day I was uploading some screenshots onto the work computer to use as wallpaper. I heard someone walk up behind me and turned to see my co worker standing behind me with a knowing smile on his face. I had a screeny with the HUD from my mega up. He looked at it for a second and I was expecting the usual "what is that?...a game?" response but he just said "nice pvp fit". I was shocked he never struck me as an eve player. I switch wallpapers from time to time and found another co worker also played eve.

I was interviewing a student would wanted to do an AI PhD with me. Got talking about various things that could work in a MMO setting with an automated feedback reactive Agent-Based AI, when as an example we started using a spaceship environment. Turns out he played EVE too which made it discussing things easier. Designed an epic concept to work on and even passed it onto CCP, but after a short while never came back to us on it. Their loss I guess. He should still be working on it ... -- Quis custodiet ipsos custodes? |

When I grabbed the paper it seemed as if there was a catipillar, so I lift it up and there was a weiner with a tattoo of a bee with a army helmet on. So after I finished up, I walked out and Vile Rat thanked me and slapped my bum and said "that'll do pig, that'll do"

You want weird?
OpenRPG. Its a program that allows you to play pencil and paper games over the web. Fun fun program I gave it up years ago because of politics in a PNP persistant world. Came back to it after about two years to check things out. Hopped on a server one thing led to another and well turns out she is an Eve player. Crazy damned thing. Still dont know her IC name. I've now found several players who play this and use that. Its been an interesting experience.
