Ok well what I would expect from a "expert masterful business", compared to CCP I will not go into as I think the forum server would explode.

But what your saying is that first they got into trouble with the Norwegians for being a gambling site and now your saying we need to contact the UN for electoral assistance as CCP is illegally dumping votes and contaminating the political wilderness.

So now we just need a civil rights CSM candidate

I know CCP intends to do more, but I don't know if they will do this. But it's a decent idea and I will make sure that Xhagen and Dolan are pointed to your post.

Well most people would say all a business does is contaminate the political wilderness. Or just spend lots of money for certain candidates.

Besides a lot of people have negative views of great companies. (Talking about negative views towards companies, you still haven't given me that job I wanted and you semi promised me.)

I mostly mean you want political improvements from a company really. Its kind of a strange notion.

CCP isn't really doing a bad job, but it is a business trying to wade into politics, so expect bumby roads and such.

What can I say

Sorry no vacancies

But yeah they really did put the cart before the horse on this one. I think it more came down to the quantifiable, they knew they could write something and bring it into being but they could not know how educating the voters would go.

So we now have a more complex voting system likely to drive voters away

And of course the death of the player elected council

But I suppose on the bright side it is now the player elected beta testers

Yeah, probably right on the quantifiable. On the other aspects to the game, seems they focus on the quantifiable as well.

Which is kind of business as well, but it seems your more interested in hostile takeovers or biting off a lot as well as finishing the job, aspect of business. (Perhaps it is best for me to wait, before I get hired by you, probably be fired pretty fast, with your business motto.)

I think there are some aspects that I wish CCP would bite it all off, as you say they should. Never really thought the CSM election really needed a huge overhaul, or biting off and finishing the job.

Besides it could be hard to educate the player base. If one plays EVE but doesn't interact, thus never knowing of the CSM. Most players use ganking to bring awareness to them, which could be too harsh. CCP being a business could use mass indoctrination. (Which I could make it half way through, so its tempting.) But a lot of players hated, Trebor's mass indoctrination so maybe not so wise for CCP to go that way.

But anyhows, are you really up to teaching EVE players? You should go read all the ship balancing threads and what not. To see what you are getting yourself into. You are gonna need all the employees you can find to get that job done. I.E. Hire me :)

Well after the last few CSMs player education would be harder and now with the new voting system all I have to say is

Good luck with that CCP

They have really made it too much like hard work and as I myself am looking for a new job soon, for private industry requires you to work....I will be trying to join the public sector So I think I have become allergic to work.

If it wasn't for the fact I wanted Malcanis in the CSM, I'd give this new system a wide birth.
The cure to not enough voters, isn't to ask for people to vote more than once.

We'll see what happens. But seeing the system and understanding what can happen with the well organised groups we have, I don't have much faith.

That actually brings up another interesting question that will no doubt be ignored by CCP and CSM alike - how exactly does one measure "hard work" in an advocacy group like this? Aside from specifics like finishing Summit minutes (twice a year) or say, the Secretary/Vice Secretary's work. What "work" is there that can be measured by how hard someone works at it?

I think I know why they changed the voting system to some crap STV designed for a compulsory voting area.

Curiosity QuestionGǪ.

How does the solo player gain representation on the council when it takes votes that theyGÇÖll never be able to accumulate to be considered based on their chosen method of game play?
