I am a new player but I have spent the past two weeks trying to become as educated as I can with the election process, issues and candidates.
From all I have read you are the first candidate I can definitely say you will have my vote.
Keep up the good work! |

Should ratting be changed to encourage PvP fits? Current ratting's focus on a single damage type and a single resist encourages PvE-specialized fits, which in my opinion gives attackers an advantage they do not need.
Should CCP adapt the same AI they're testing out with Drifters to regular rats?
Would visible timers for the duration of Post-Jump Cloaking and Undock Invincibility (similar to the current timers for Jump Fatigue and Aggression) benefit the game?
Should Damage Control be turned into an always-on module instead of a manually-activated one?
Current ratting? No. But if new npc's were to show up I would be fine with them being more AI wise and doing things like warping out or calling for reinforcements which would, in turn, mean that the player would have to fit points to keep the target handy. I like the concept of the newer things being smarter but nobody was screaming for belt rats to suddenly be sleeper level or Sansha tanked. Each type will be its own class.
As for the invulnerability period timers? Yeah, that would be nice. I find myself counting out loud when it is a situation where the time means something.
No, Damage control is fine as it is. Thus it can be capped out, turned off and is a Darwin check for people coming into a system. (and yes, I have failed that check more than once)

The first is time differential. WE fight in long 'age of sail' type battles while Valyrie is more twitch boom dead. (I have played it a few times) Legion/Dust is small group and also hard to tie in without a LOT of economic rulings for it all to make sense and not for a mediocre pilot to be able to buy and see squads at the drop if a few million isk. It is easy to demand integrration but a lot more difficult to actually envisage what the hell that means. As for walking in stations? I wrote this and stand by it. You're on my ballots, Mike.
Good luck.

Hello Mike.
Can you name one issue / point that was discussed during the past year's CSM meetings (and not under NDA) that you felt strongly about AND were in disagreement with the majority of other CSM members. Doesn't matter if you got your way or not.
Describe briefly the argument you presented to defend the issue. and the challenges you faced, if any, being the "mission running/casual" candidate among the others.
Thanks,
Fang

This will seem to be an odd choice
The Sensitivity Training.
Drama started early in the CSM and lines were drawn. CCP tried to calm the waters by having a meeting to discuss professional conduct with the CSM. It WAS needed because not only did we have negative people towards the process but also people who brought their 'in game' politics into the CSM and continued game agendas. This made the council less functional than it could have been.
'Eve is politics and I can play nasty if I want' was said to which I responded 'THIS is NOT Eve. We are a council discussing Eve.'
Some folks never got it and at least one of them is running again. Others mocked the process of trying to bring a level of professionalism to the council and made jokes about singing kumbaya. They never ever got the message and we suffered for it.
I will say it again, here. CSM is not about the game politics. It is politics so we can talk about the game. Anyone unable to lay their baggage at the door and discuss things calmly from their positions of knowledge rather than from in game prejudice is doing the game, the voters, and the council a great disservice.
There were other times that I was the adversary but most of them are still too NDAd to discuss.

To be honest I was wondering what you thought about some sort of Sov-lite concept for High Sec, where players can have a degree of ownership of those systems and some sort of benefit.

I think it is a good thing. But as Fozzie said, it will need continual tweeking. Sov systems will always find a balance and start to stagnate if you don't poke and change it on a regulare basis. Like a plant becoming pot bound

The Voting has now closed. I want to thank those who supported me, win or lose, I appreciate it
Good luck to all the candidates who ran.
I have said it a few times publicly. This is my last race for a few years, no matter what the results are. I have no idea how I will spend the next election season. Probably sitting back, laughing, and throwing in the odd comment from the side.
I think I have earned it
Again, Thank You all

We have the worst CSM to date, and of course one of the people responsible for it, Mike, got elected again.
When is the next Mike-sanctioned hisec nerf? I believe it was April, the time null ores are redone, which will probably devalue hisec ores below the ground... again.
Anything to say in your defense?

Did you vote?
I am in waaaay too good a mood to take offence at your tone, your entitlement, your errors so tightly pakced in such a small package.
They could make minerals twice as common and easy to get in Null. Unless they have folks there WILLING to mine them, it will make no difference.
But don't let my opinion sway you. Tell me more about how I manage to be the one driving the bus taking hisec down the ever so well paved road to hell.

SOV is stagnant because Low Sec is not the next step from High Sec and a viable place to grow alliances to the point they can challenge Null alliances.

There was a mining report in dev blogs recently, which drew a clear picture. Some null regions scored a lot more than certain not depopulated hisec ones. I still remembered how Odyssey plummeted mining into the ground, and it doesn't take a genius to tell what ANY ore rebalance favoring null will do to hisec, which has already lost any industrial competition with null and is nothing more than a raw resource provider for it at the moment. You were in the CSM then, you are in the CSM now, you ok'd it, you devalued it, and now, 5 buffs later, when 80% of resource providing capacity has been recovered, time to kick the dying dog. Thanks, Mike.
