I support what you want to do, so I added you as the 5th official contact on the list of representatives in my news-article about this event: Empires seek capsuleer assistance in Sleeper research!
Lets hope we can pull it off!

Looking at the first release of numbers it doesn't look like the players are going to win, however if we still beat one of the empires it would be cool if it was still acknowledged in the lore.
Just a short piece saying that the Minmatar Republic were handed an embarrassing blow to their research efforts today when capsuleers succeeded in raising more support than the Republic.
Tbh, it isn't so far off the mark really. Considering the low profile (compared to the 'official' representatives) the Independants are on a good track (only shortly behind on Gallente/Minmatar). I do hope if the final results get published, the independant group, lead by Guillame renard does get a mention in the news. Such act would already go far in motivating people to participate in future stuff.

Ohh, so more WH lore stuff is coming them? (hopefully)

Curious about the update for the independants.
This is the current tally of the Empires:
- Caldari - 311,249
- Minmatar - 167,726
- Amarr - 155,789
- Gallente - 154,525
Caldari took a huge leap forward. Minmatar have progressed as well and are now second place! Amarr on the other hand have all but dropped silent... Only moving up minimally & getting caught up by the others.

Jumping in for a bit of devil's advocacy. What do you (and I don't just mean Stan here) think makes an event successful?
Often mentions (indirect or direct) in news game artickes helps alot. By example *capsuleers intervened in this operation, or helped with gathering that*
In this research race by example, a mention that a group of capsuleers under the lead of Guillome Renard tried to start an independant research program, to claim the spoils of new technology for themselves.

Congratulations in getting mentioned on the Las Vegas stream, giving the result of the research race! Here's the image, showing all 5 contestants for the research race & the total points collected: Eve Vegas research race keynote image
I also like to thank the CCP devs who honored Guillome Renard's effort & that of his supporters by including their tally into the final result!
With all that is said: it's unveiled what we were donating for: Tech 3 destroyers! The winning faction (Amarr) resleases theirs first, followed by Minmatar, Caldari and then finally the Gallente (who never seemed to be able to keep up with the others...)
You can read more about it here: 'The result of the YC116 Sleeper data research race!' where I give an overview of the final research tally & all we know about the Tech 3 destroyers for now, released on the Vegas Stream.

Thanks for the great post Falcon! And it does confirm what I mentioned in the Sansha live event thread, that currently CCP is unable to launch major events due to the absence of the Live Event team.
I do appreciate the effort you guys put in the recent events. Considering CCP staff has to prioritize and for obvious reasons running Live Events can't be high on the priority list, you still do great work. The Provist Manhunt & the Research race were neat events.
On the Research race, it was a great event to make players have an effect on the game, and for lorefolks/RP it does matter who came out with tech 3 destroyers the first.
On running events, I used to organize large scale events in another MMO, and yes, can confirm it's hard to do, alot of preparation, being ready for whatever shenigans people throw at you. Iin Eve it's double important due to it's open nature, with people insisting on finding ways to intervene in a matter you didn't originally intend.
Also stress in making sure people enjoy the actual event & co-ordinating your 'staff' during the events. Only once the event is over, organizers can relax (or not, when people are vocal about it)
Hence, I won't expect anything on the scale of the Sansha incursions, Arek'Jaalan or Caldari Prime Battle for a good long time. Instead, I'm happy to see events like this research race pop up.
Only thing I'd enjoy to see improved is additional ingame news articles, even fluff ones would be neat. Then again, writing isn't so easy either, especially not with lore you got to take in account & that ingame news articles are always canon.
In this case by example, I'm sure CCP had discussions internally wether to include the Independant's research into the Las Vegas stream or not, as it might create unrealistic expectations of people in the future, who all want to start up little things of their own, just to be able to efature in an offical CCP representation.
To cut it short, don't expect it, if you really want to get featured, find a way to rally the community behind you. The independents, in my opnion, got rightfully featured because it was a community effort.
