He's got a bit of a point though, no one in eve that can do what your asking will bat an eyelash at 100 mil, or 300 for that matter.
The time/resources involved would probably run as much. You need to find where he operates and what he does (locator agents +scouting) and assuming he doesn't fly around in a pod all the time, you'll need to use at least 2 accounts in hisec: one to kill his ship and another to smartbomb his pod.
For the amount of time and effort involved in finding, killing, and podding a *particular* player, 300 million amounts to less than the eve equivalent of minimum wage. |

and no the bounty should not get too high in case of a deal.
Take a closer look at his kb, he forays into low null maybe one day a month for a couple of hours at most. That's just not a large enough window of opportunity, no one's gonna wait that long. The hit is gonna have to happen in hisec.
One of the particular things about eve is that while killing is easy as pie, killing a particular person out of thousands on demand requires some amount of time and effort. Time and effort for which your proposed compensation is, quite frankly, laughable. |

Somewhere around 50 mil, I think.
Edit: per week I believe. |

One of the sad things about "bounty hunting" or being a "hitman" in eve is that the reward is never worth the effort.
Take this thread as an example. I might be inclined to go after him if the reward was 2-3 bil, but as has been correctly pointed out: you have no guarantee of a deal not taking place between a would be hunter and the mark. |

I suppose if you offered the bounty only to particular parties, that might make it "safer". So for instance Bastion Arzi could offer a 2 billion bounty to be collectable only by particular interested parties, say La Nariz and Jonah or whoever. That might be enough incentive for someone to make the attempt. A deal is less likely to happen as, realistically, there isn't much point in paying chribba 1 bil or w/e his rate is on a 2 bil bounty.
Still kinda pointless though. |

Eh, you're both wrong. |

Eh, you're both wrong. About Nulli? Pretty sure they're going to feel the pinch once NC abandons them and they don't have bottomless supercap support. They've historically lost most of the subcap engagements in the last few wars, too. Although what the Russians are up to is anyone's guess. The russians, what's left of their fragmented entities anyway, are aiming for catch. Hence the buildup and ceasefire of hero/provi and a move toward similar mainline doctrines.
Nulli has held space longer than most of the people posting in this thread have been playing eve, and has plenty of allies. If you're getting that bit of intel from The Mittani's recent article on his website, consider that some of his info on alliances being alone and without allies:
Quote:alliances like Nulli Secunda, Kadeshi, Gentlemen's Club and The Unthinkables find themselves standing alone for the first time in their history.
Is woefully inaccurate. The Kadeshi, for example, have currently taken half of delve, and not alone either. Whether deliberately or in genuine error, much of the "intel" in that article was wrong.
I also happen to know moa's plans for the near future, and don't believe that will end particularly well given that I also know where the bulk of goon supers are currently staged.
So yeah, both of you are wrong. |

On the other hand, his thread in GD had 4 csm's (steve, mike, sion, and mynna) making some very excellent posts about the hisec awox crowd. When have any of your nerf hisec threads gotten anywhere near that level of attention?
This is definitely a most entertaining improvement from the dinsdale/infinity ziona/gevlon crowd. I, for one, look forward to seeing more quality veers threads on GD. They make for excellent entertainment. |

I, for one, look forward to seeing more quality veers threads on GD. They make for excellent entertainment. You can look them up and see, they have and they usually go to 150 pages +. E: The thread in my sig is a great example, ISDs, CSMs and I vaguely remember CCP in it. All for discussion while the ISDs discussed and moderated. The CSM posts in your thread are far less entertaining then the csm posts in Veer's thread. Like the ones from Mynna that I linked. Or Sion's posts. Truly, your CSM representatives went straight to the heart of the matter quickly and effectively.
No, Veers definitely wins this one. His thread is better.  |

50/50. I genuinely agree with the positions expressed by the csm in that thread...particularly mynna.
