Not sure if this is the correct place to post (Dev/ISD please move it to the correct forum if I am wrong)
Was browsing the Japanese Eve main page when I saw this post .( http://community2.eveonline.com/ja/communication/news/2month_evelife_01 , http://eveonline.nexon.co.jp/campaign/challenge.aspx )
Apparently Nexon, for promotional purposes for Eve Online has set up a audition for a reality series for the selected person to experience eve online for 2 months. Said Audition can be watched at http://live.nicovideo.jp/watch/lv140532500 (if you have premium nicovideo account).
The Selected candidate was announced today to be Ms Kazuha Asaki. (http://ameblo.jp/asakikazuha/ blog is here for those interested.)
It will be broken into two segments . From the 11th of June to 10th July she will be blogging on her escapades as a new player in eve on a blog (http://asakikazuha.blog.fc2.com/)
From the 11th July onwards, she will be placed in a house , then what she gets for food would be based on her performance in eve eg isk making. This will be livestreamed on Nicovideo and Stickam for 12 hours daily till the 11th of August.
======= Profile
Name : Asaki Kazuha µ¦àµ£¿S+ÇFÅ» Size : T162cm S22.5cm B80 W56 H80 DOB : 1st September 1986 (26) Blood Type : O Born in : Aomori Prefecture, Japan Interests : Soft Tennis, Hurdles

But there's more to eve than just making ISK?
I'd argue that just making ISK isn't experiencing EVE at all, but reality TV shows hardly make much sense to me anyway. You can't take the sky from me

Dont bring logic in this arguement. Your logic has no place here. This is about some of the sadder people watching a cute girl play video games.
I have a feeling this might turn into her trying to survive on n+æS+çsåå for a month. "I think you should buy a new Mayan calendar. Mine has muscle cars on it." --áKenneth O'Hara

Wow! That's a brilliant variation on the Japanese "torture and humiliate the contestants game show" theme. This I hope the contestant doesn't starve for lack of ISK. But then again, Miss Seventeen Magazine 2004 might be brighter than she looks in her photo. On second thought, she'll never starve. This is EVE-- she'll just scam billions of ISK. Loads of eager male players will happily give them to her. |

I'll pod her any day. Why doesn't English speaking side of CCP do weird promos like this? An open mind is like a fortress with its gates unbarred and unguarded. A narrow mind is a focused mind.

Edit, wait this is all being done in Gunma??? Thats an odd location.
Further edit.
The comment section is fantastic! the Japanese community moans the same as us!
This makes me feel warm and fuzzy.
I particularly like the null ranting.

She's not going to starve, only the quality of food goes up or down.
For me this will be a nice social experiment to watch.

Judging by how she is blogging, I'm quite sure our Japanese counterparts are just as troll as she is frivolous. (Started asking which faction to choose, ended up saying any of them is fine) . Commentors are egging her to either Start a corp/ join a nullsec bloc .

I did enjoy reading that.
Can you imagine her as a fresh player joining a 0.0 null corp? "I think you should buy a new Mayan calendar. Mine has muscle cars on it." --áKenneth O'Hara

Ive seen a couple in space and they have their own aliance. But i have no idea. Nexon advertise it to hell and back though. "I think you should buy a new Mayan calendar. Mine has muscle cars on it." --áKenneth O'Hara

I have a problem calling stuff like this, Big Brother, Survivor, and other shows reality, as they set things up that do not happen in reality.
Things like Dirty Jobs, Deadliest Catch, Ice Road Truckers.... although moderately imbelished and somewhat set up are what I consider reality.
I did really like early survivor. Very much like EVE I would say

Seems like they blew all of the possible drama of the contest when they picked a cute girl as the contestant. She was bound to get free isk, free help, and lots of kindness loaded on her. That's not only takes the challenge out of it, it's pretty much the opposite what EVE is all about. |
