No.
Eve is not an ecosystem. We, the players, are the only non-static entity. Nothing revolves around us, changes, or relies on us, that would continue to exist if we were not here.
No.
Tiercide was not a nerf. Most of the ships got buffed, new ship roles got added for ships that didn't otherwise have them, and even in the case of the drake, dps for properly skilled players increased.
No.
The mineral changes in the tiercide were not snuck in. They have been known about for months, some of us have been planning for the mineral change to BCs, for the past 4 or 5 months.
No.
Making highsec safer will not make the game better. It will make it even more stale and boring than it has become. What it lacks is proper conflict drivers, and common sense between highsec dwellers on safe fitting/hauling guidelines.
No.
Soccer (Football, to you Euros) is not a real sport. It is a game of actors and actresses, who flop about lacking real effort and enthusiam, until someone else bumps into them, and they are called on to make the performance of a lifetime, pretending like they are being violently murdered, in the hope of a penalty being inflicted on the other team. Soccer is a boring, slow paced game, played by pansies. Which race would win a football (soccer) match is irrelevant, because only the gallente would be silly enough to participate, and would still likely lose, with no other competitors.
No.
Ratting with drones is not harder post Retribution 1.0 in december, it is easier. Fit an ecm or RR module, activate it, and all the rats will stay focused on ships activating Ecm or RR in regular anomalies and most missions.

Ships getting blown up does not constitute an ISK sink. Something being an ISK faucet or sink has no relation to your personal wallet.
No.
Even if you mined the minerals yourself, it's not free. "Opportunity cost" is a quantity in EVE; your time is not free. For example, doing PI and ice mining to fuel your research POS is not being "smart," it's wasting your time. ~*a proud belligerent undesirable*~ TheMittani.com: The premier source for news, commentary and discussion of EVE Online and other games of interest.

To be honest, all races would play soccer, however only the amarr would play in the gridiron league, and would declare one planets team as the universes champions at the end of their season, despite 3/4s of the eve universe not playing, and then 3 seasons later they'd sell the franchise to another planet, who would then pretend to have won all the championships that the franchise won throughout its history.
Oh and all the players bar the quarterbacks and one or two particularly fat linebackers would be minmatar.

The world outside of the US and Canada would beg to differ. Those countries have their own sports called football, so they refer to it as soccer. Pretty much everywhere else calls it Football, soccer is a derivative of Association Football, which is the game that is played internationally. While American Football (henchforth known as Handegg ) is played outside of the US it's very much a minority sport internationally.

You cared enough to post. That's an amazing amount of not caring. Apparently booking your flight & accomodation to Iceland BEFORE you buy the tickets for the convention which is pretty much the only reason you wanted to go there in the first place is popular. |

Our football it's just as awful as any other similar sport. It's not about the game anymore. Apparently booking your flight & accomodation to Iceland BEFORE you buy the tickets for the convention which is pretty much the only reason you wanted to go there in the first place is popular. |

Daft question, I've seen some Aussie rules football, it looks fairly similar to Rugby and Gaelic Football, what are the differences?

Both are more manly sports than dramaball and handegg. |

Sir, you are the first individual I've encountered who actually knows the origins of the term "soccer". It's amazing how many Europeans become quite upset when a lowly American educates them on the history of "their" game. It should be noted that the earliest known use of "soccer" was in England, not America.
I take exception to American football being called "handegg" unless you opt to refer to Rugby by the same term. Both are games which fall under the category of a game played on foot with a ball, hence "football" (as opposed to games played on horseback).

That doesn't make sense. Actual handball is played on foot with a ball too. So...
If the only consideration were that balls are involved but not horses that would include pretty much everything!

At the time the term originated (13th-14th century I believe) I don't think sports were diversified enough for this to be a consideration. I'm pretty sure that at the time all of their sports involving balls (stop snickering, this isn't gradeschool) were played on a field with goals of some sort.
Of course, that would still including basketball. I dunno, I don't make this stuff up. I just share it with the class. Founding member of the Belligerent Undesirables movement. |
