When you first read GÇ£Long-Distance Travel Changes Inbound,GÇ¥ you smiled from ear to ear. Null is stagnant, and clipping the wings of capital ships across New Eden would surely turn everything on its head GÇô right?
But how?
Even with neutered force projection, The Blue Donut looms. B0TLRD Accords reward cowardice. Renters remain 5% human and 95% AFK ishtar bot.
The rules will change when CCP presses the big red button, but the map wonGÇÖt unless we get off our asses and cause some trouble. Entire regions are being abandoned, and there is land for the taking while the major powers play musical chairs. I know the desire is there. I asked if anybody was interested in launching a crusade to colonize some space on patch day, and the answer was an overwhelming GÇ£yes.GÇ¥ The energy and involvement since then has been off the charts. Not because you want an empire, not because you have any faith in me, and definitely not because weGÇÖre likely to succeed GÇô but because an insane crusade to colonize abandoned sov in the face of extreme changes to the meta sounds like fun. Maybe about as much fun as you can have in this game. **** like this doesnGÇÖt happen every patch.
BECOME CONTENT: Phoebe wonGÇÖt change anything on its own. WeGÇÖve got to get our hands dirty, kick some beehives, and be the spark that blows the map wide open. ItGÇÖs time to nut up and become the content you wish to see in New Eden. Hang out in a terribly named subreddit: Subscribe to /r/PhoebeCrusadeWarRoom and follow our antics.
Join the corporation or alliance: Phoebe Freeport Republic (alliance) and Dutch East Querious Company (corporation) are accepting applications. Newbies and vets are welcome from all backgrounds. If youGÇÖre itching to shake things up, youGÇÖll find a home with us. Send applications in game with a little background on yourself, then pack your bags and start making propaganda.
Deploy with us to (location TBA): WeGÇÖll pitch our tents in Skarkon, a lowsec system somewhere (I suck at maps). Join us for campfire sing-alongs and marshmallows before spilling forth to claim a stake. The system even has cloning services (donGÇÖt ask).
Establish freeports: WeGÇÖre not hunting for land to rent. We want... well, ok, we want to build space parking lots, space gas stations and space strip malls. WeGÇÖll let create a Freeport and seed a market like null has never seen before. And it will be TOTALLY COOL I promise, with like blackjack and hookers and stuff. GÇ£Space rest station buildingGÇ¥ is a little hard to sell as the goal of a crusade, but WORK WITH ME HERE PEOPLE.
Experiment with space democracy: Our interim leadership will carry us until we establish sov in our first Freeport. A week later, the movement will vote on its ideals and next round of leaders. It wonGÇÖt mean replacing every FC and suicidal logistics drone, but it will mean a constant incentive to train new people and give leaders fixed periods of time to put in maximum effort. Or it will fail miserably and we'll become a dictatorship. WHO KNOWS LET'S FIND OUT.
Live off the land and prepare for new sov mechanics: Sov is terrible now but CCP IS ABSOLUTELY GOING TO FIX IT 100% GOOD NEXT PATCH. Promise. Cannot be false. And that new sov system will have something to do with occupancy, so letGÇÖs start colonizing and living in our space before it becomes the cool thing to do.
Learn to love catastrophic failure: Expect a lot of defeats and missteps along the way. But remember: the secret to failure is that itGÇÖs fun to do with friends. Come be terrible at EVE, - you will be in good company. We've already had leadership drama, minor corp theft, angry people, misread maps, whelps... We've got it all, and you should come check it out, because we're just going to keep going and keep grinning.
11.04.14: When the patch goes live, the server comes up, and coms click to life with exotic accents shouting GÇ£Undock! Undock! Undock!GÇ¥ - I want to burst out of the station with you. I want to fly into the unknown and carve into the universe without any idea of what will be happen to us. I want to fail 99 times, and then when something goes right I want to look you in the eye and ask GÇ£what the **** do we do now?GÇ¥
Will you come with us?

EVE needs a change, needs a bit of new jazz since things have gotten stale. So we're gonna band together, and take advantage of these big changes happening next week. |

Getting in on a one-man pretend crusade against the ebul nullbears, which seems to be missing out on the fact there's been a lot of changes even before Phoebe has hit, which is interesting as it's been "big news" for the past few days. |

One man? We've got from 1 to 190 members in less than 6 days.
We're looking at serious numbers here.
GÇ£An endemic of laziness has infected EVE. The main power blocs are refusing to produce content for their members, and the game is stagnating as a result. GÇ¥ |

GÇ¥ Gee, I wonder why that might possibly be. Maybe because every time they do produce content for their members, it turns into 6+ hours of sub 10% tidi where everyone shoot maybe 10-15 shots.
I'm thinking that'll change after CCP make it better to spread your forces all over the map and change the way you capture space, but if you want to run around and help create more content, that's even better.
PS: Ask Nulli how good we are at providing content for them now. |

they didn't want that empty SCSAA anyway.
P.S.: Tidi is better than the alternative.
P.P.S: Please take sov and put up structures of your own so we can do the same to you when we are bored of our traditional enemies.

Nope. Either occupancy or stripped down sovereignty looks to be scheduled for early 2015 ish. Maybe Feb? Maybe June? |
