I will confine my list of possible candidates to those who do not in any way represent any of the null security space power blocks.
Which is to say, I will not be voting.

Oh do tell... what exactly is that fraction? Do you have a number? Or perhaps just a good guess? Or... wait, I know... we should simply take your word on it without question?
But let us head off to fantasy land for a moment and assume that you know what you are talking about. Let us even be so generous as to say that fully half of every the entire dirty hisec peasantry are, in fact, just alts of your glorious nullsec master race. Let us do some quick math, let me see... 72% divided by 2... 31% Nearly one third of all New Eden.
Tell me, are one third of the CSM candidates offering to represent hisec interests? Or should we just be so grateful for your infinitely wise & benign leadership that we should happily vote for our nullsec overlords lobbyists because even though your goal is pretty much to shove it up our hisec sphincters at every opportunity that you really do it because you actually love us, it is for our own good and it has nothing to do with trying to force us all into moving out to nullsec and becoming your latest patch of indentured servants who's only purpose is to feed you free ISK and stroke your egos all day? And those of us who refuse to bend our knees to you should simply remain quiet & suck it up or quit EvE entirely, correct?
Be careful what you wish for, because it just may happen. You will either turn hisec into an empty wasteland, and CCP's offices not far behind due to lost subscriptions, or you will flood your ranks with bitter, former hisec players who are all just waiting for the chance to AWOX you & your precious Alliances at every turn.
The reality is that you should be very, very grateful that the hisec population has little interest in CSM affairs & would rather just be left alone to do our thing in peace. Because if we did care as much as you keep saying we should then it would not end well for you & your kind.

Malcanis wrote:No, I don't have an exact number, but I'll turn that right back at you. Do you have a number? Do you think it's zero?
More than zero, less than one hundred. I asked you a question and your response was to ask me the same question. A nice parry, but it does not dodge the point. If you are going to talk about numbers then you should actually have those numbers on hand, otherwise your claims are nothing more than conjecture at best and wishful thinking at worst.

From the defensive and desperate tone of yours, I suspect that it may be lower that you are comfortable thinking about. See how easy this is?
Malcanis wrote:I don't know of a single nullsec player who doesn't have at least 1 alt in hi-sec. Most, like me, actually have more characters in empire than they do in nullsec. Some have a lot of character in empire.
So because you do it that must mean everyone must do it. Audience, I give you nullsec thinking in a nutshell.
Malcanis wrote:I'd say it was a very conservative assumption to say for every character in 0.0 there is at least one hi-sec "alt". That means that somewhere between a quarter and a third of hi-sec is actually "0.0 players".
Oh dear... so instead of 72% divided by 50% then I should have used 72% divided by something between 25% and 33%? So the actual number is even lower than my original guess? Which, in turn, would mean even more CSMs should be representing hisec interests than I originally claimed.
Well, I certainly appreciate you helping my argument. That was very generous of you.

I have citations. You have only your ego.
Also, you should try harder to not be so obvious as to who's alt you are.
