I am putting out an open contract to the miners of New Eden. From July 9th to July 18th, pirates, griefers, PVPers, and your competitors will be out there to kill your barges any way they can. They are putting a lot of ISK behind this effort but really they're doing it for the lulz. Take that away from them.
Price: 6b (i am aware this is a large sum, but a lot of this will go to decs. Feel free to pool resources with other miners) Targets: Any corp over 20 members which posts kills to the Hulkageddon III tracking board Method: War dec hunt n kill, proactive anti-gank patrols around common mining areas
NMG. will war dec Hulkageddon participants and get them before they get you and your friends.
NOTICE: Hulkageddon participants have an open "WIN Hulkageddon" contract type open to them. Once a STOP Hulkageddon contract has been arranged no further WIN Hulkageddon contracts will be offered, though previously paid ones will be honored (employer corps immune from attack) |

A simple way to stop it is to simply not go out in your Hulks during the week and keep an eye if it continues for more than a week. It may put your plans behind, but its the best idea that comes to mind.  |

Given that hulkageddon is all about alphaing a hulk, losing your ship and laughing as a cb crys over the hulk wreck how do you propose stopping that?
I mean, I suppose you could sit there with an uberfleet on a hulk remrepping it permenantly but that hardly seems um... efficient.

Only way to stop Hulkageddon is to remove all targets from space so they won't even get a single kill during their contest and people start popping their mining alts to get to the winner's price. Let the sharks eat each other. Bear elsewhere.  |

Hulkaggedon is a driven players event and Noir. will profit and jump into the event by doing their mercenary job. All in all, they might create more interactions by providing "muscle" to defend poor AFK miners against crazy terrorists.
What will be impossible for a Merc is hunting suicide ganker belonging to a NPC corp. Whatever, the open contract prove that Noir. know their mercenary business and once again that they are profesionals.
Looking forward to see interesting battles in hot mining systems.

This has been talked about soooo many times before. Hulkageddon is an excellant opportunity for new pilots to learn tactics that will allow them to think of nullsec possibilities.
- Choose the systems you mine in carefully. Don't mine in crowded systems.
- Watch local. Watch local. Watch local.
- Be aware of the more common lulz squads. Some of these people are racking up the points. So certain names should raise a red flag when in local.
- Use an intel channel. Not sure if there is one yet, but one should be started. Keep an eye on it and if you see a roaving gang known to be a participant, say it in the intel channel.
- MOST IMPORTANT - Stay aligned. If there is trouble or you think there is about to be trouble. Warp off in a blink of an eye. Alpha strikes generally don't need (or have the time) for scramblers.
Also, if you have a friend collecting the ore or a second account doing it .. even better. If they succeed, have the second ship immediately scoop up the remains of your ship and payload along with anything left over of theres. It could be profitable. ~~ Tethraa KaiSuun |

Your best bet to surviving while continuing to mine is going to be speed and intelligence, not brute forcing your attackers by increasing your EHP.
You can suicide gank a PvE mission-tanked Golem with a few battleships before CONCORD destroys them. Think about that. Do you think a Hulk has any chance? Of course not.
If you stay moving and stay aligned, you will be gone long before any battleship or other ship capable of one-shotting you can get a lock on you. If you see someone you've identified as a potential participant move into your belt, you take off.
This is how it's done in 0.0, and it's honestly no different here. All you need is some preparation. They're not going to be using stealthed tacklers, pointing you, and being insanely coordinated about it. They're going to expect you to be slow and stupid.

I mine 3hulks + 1orca in Hulkageddon areas, and have never been ganked. You got the wrong idea about this. This is a beautiful way to gank lazy miners and bots. If you pay attention you'll be fine.
Align. Watch ships coming into belts. Warp when necessary to safe point, leaving any drones behind. (They're cheaper than your Hulk anyway.)
I've had 2-4 'encounters', but c'mon... if you get ganked it's nobody's fault but yours. (bad fit, not paying attention, etc.) If you're that paranoid, don't undock.
They're having fun, this post is probably linked and causing giggles. Last one didn't the mineral market hard enough... let's hope they do a good job this time.

What a weird event. People are so tired of losing to people who CAN defend themselves that they go out and kill hulks? in empire?
I always thought that the major aspect of fun in eve was the adrenaline rush that you get from pvping a worthy opponent. This sounds slightly more boring than gate camping. I read that guys blog, but I dont really understand what the point is. Rebel against macro miners and empire "carebares"? Just be annoying?
Why not structure some sort of competition between real combat ships? surely that will be more entertaining for all concerned!

The point is that if you take your hulk to mine correctly each time, then hulkageddon should be irrelevant to your activities.
If you get blown up during hulkageddon, then you were doing it wrong.

Interesting, but I would say for the case of the market and ore/minerals and such that a week+ with all the hulks docked (for both protection and simply to cut down on the excess ore/minerals) would do wonderful things for the miners market prices. Perhaps call it a "miners holiday" or something - since miners can't usually agree on a moratorium on mining for the common good - perhaps "hulkageddon" is a good excuse for a mutual reason.
Over all, it would/will be interesting to see what happens over the course of that week, I for one will be safely docked and offline doing a good many things that need doing... and reading the KM/KBs for content to keep up with the score.

look how about this, instead of mining in your hulk, most of you have alts or friends, mine in a battleship while your friend picks the stuff up and stays aligned to some where or use an orca to drop it into. in all if they really do want you dead itll take an obscene amount of pilots to take you and they only get points for mackinaws and hulks. also my orcaservice is available in high sec  Please re-size your signature to the maximum allowed of 400 x 120 pixels with a maximum file size of 24000 bytes.

No targets means no interest. Park your Hulks for a week, go pull out your best ship and run some missions for a change of pace. If you're living in null sec, go join some corp fleet ops, pull out a frig and offer to do your best to tackle or go out and help to corp stock up on some ice that week. Anyone who mines, just use your head. Let' em pop freakin macro's.
No need for this, just plan for it and do some other stuff eve has to offer.
Nuff said.

uhhm, hulkageddon.
fly mining battleships for a change, mining rokh for example if you want to have ultra lawls, 100 EHP right there.
It will take 30 seconds for concord to arrive, so gankers must be doing more than 3400 DPS per second, this amounts to 4 battleships.
get an RR alt for yourself, in an overtanked osprey... or a corp mate in a blackbird to protect you from suicide attempts. Do not mine solo, do not stay close to other gang members or you will be smartbombed.

I don't understand war mechanics but, though the OP's offer is interesting, How about forming an alliance and all corps join it for a week and that alliance wardec as many geddon corps as the alliance can afford. We can just have a week of all out highsec blood. Ewar, drones, rifters etc, just total carnage? like peasants and pitchforks kinda thing?
Hows that sound or won't that work?

Leave the Hulk at home and fit a Rohk, Apocalypse, Hyperion or Maelstrom for mining.
With the right fit it will outmine a Retriever and have a massive EHP.
Either that or fly battle hulks with Trojan Orcas nearby......

It's more about killing cheaters and those who play in a way that's tantamount to cheating. It's already been noted that the hulkageddon guys (intentionally) typically don't bother pointing/tackling their targets. If you're actually playing, escape is trivial. If you're AFK-mining or botting, all you're doing is screwing up the economy for legit miners and industrialists, so blowing your ass up is a public service.
It's basically deer hunting season. They kill off the weak and diseased deer and reduce the population from levels which pose a danger to the ecosystem (economy). There's pleasure in service.
(Not actually a participant, but I understand what it's about.)

It's a bandwagon thing. Once the Hulk manufacturers deem the price of Hulks too low, they create this "fun and exciting" thing for all the ub3r pvp3rs, and other random imbeciles to participate in. The sheep do the killing, and the builders make money. Everyone's a winner.
And no, I don't mine in empire. I'm just amused by it.

Whoa, I don't see this mention of Hulks using weapons platforms to destroy submarines anywhere in my 30-book Time Life series on World War II...Hmm. That's funny. I could've sworn they made sure to include a few chapters on internet spaceshipz, considering the role those played.
Also, what is fairness? I heard it was some mystical concept of human thinking that couldn't exist at the same time as the EVE universe, but I could be wrong.
TL;DR if you've never shot at another player's ship because you mine 23/7 then you're in for a ride on the whaaaaambulance when Hulkageddon 3 comes along.

Sounds simple enough but you will never get people to stop mining.
During the last Hulkageddon I was looking to witness some live ganks when I found a blob of Macks and Retrievers with an orca ice mining.
I even told them that it was not very wise to clump toghether like that, specially with Hulkageddon going on. They shrugged me off, they were "well tanked/protected" and even if they all lost their boat, their epic ice mining ops would make enough money to replace any losses.
In other words: they just didn't really care. And I'm betting lots of miners don't. They just don't see it as a really big threat. And since I have not witnessed a single suicide gank in spite of searching actively for them during the last Hulkageddon, they might even have a point.

And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
Hell to the yes, Amen to that.

Hulkageddon makes me happy.
What, other than the Alliance Tournament, grabs so much attention from the entire playerbase?
I wish we had more large and well-organized events.
Alliance Tournament is like Eve's Thanksgiving and Hulkageddon is like Eve's Halloween.
Trick or treat!

I'm a miner and lived my life in both high-sec and null-sec. All I can say is that Hulkageddon is a blessing when it comes to getting rid of macro miners. Not only that, it takes experience for a Hulk pilot to operate a mining op with this event going around. I've done mining ops before and survived. This is what hulkageddon provides. It provides a good lesson to the newbies on the realities of Eve and how no system in New Eden is never safe. Here is a trick I learned in 0.0 space.
1. First and foremost, pick a system with minimal number of locals. This makes it easier for you to spot trouble before it reaches you.
2. In that system, create a safe spot and use that as a reference point.
3. Go to a belt and use the ship's tactical overlay to pick a straight route where your Hulk can constantly mine different rocks on a straight line.
4. Create a book mark on the start of the line facing the safe spot you created. You can create multiple paths on the same belt if your like - which means creating more safe spots for each.
5. Do the same thing over again for as many belts as you like. Randomize your patterns and frequency to confuse the gankers.
Don't forget to use insta-warp spots for stations. Once you setup everything, simply start at the beginning of the straight route in your hulk while aligned to the safe and warp out at the first sign of trouble.

Why would you wish to stop Hulkageddon? For the love of god man it's the one sport we have in EVE.
At least thats how I see it. Once Twice a year we get a realy good Hulkageddon going on and its becoume a very cool eve sport.
I have played both sides of the field in this. Not every Hulk siting in everybelt is just gank meat some times that Hulk pilot has nice support just waiting to decloak or warp in.
It's a good clean fun sport that's so good for the eve min market that it must happen :) Is it a rock? Point a Lazer at it and profit. Is it a ship? Point a Lazer at it and profit. I dont realy see any differnces here. |

Not only that, but why stop it when instead you can plan around it and profit from the destruction? If hulk manufacturers are not truly behind Hulkageddon it would certainly behoove them to figure out how to profit from it, but it doesn't just have to be manufacturers that profit. Trolls? In my EVE forums? It's more likely than you think... |
