My name may have a funny spelling, but I'm here to do some serious work! I am Psianh Auvyander and I'm a member of Noir. mercenary corporation, CEO of Noir. Academy training corporation, and I am here to represent small/medium sized organizations, new players, and mercenaries across the game universe. I strongly believe EVE is a game based around risk, reward, conflict, collusion, coercing, and relationships and - perhaps most importantly - fun, and I will work to maintain and improve upon those tenants.
I'm running for CSM X because I can continue the great work that has been done and build upon it further. I'm running because I will to be a representative for players across New Eden, available, willing, and determined to get your opinions and feelings across to CCP. I will have an open dialogue with players from all playstyles, welcoming conversations about what you want, what you like, what you don't like, and what you dream of. I will communicate with you and for you to make New Eden better next year than it is this year.
I've spent years working professionally and as a volunteer as a community manager. I have the skills and experience required to efficiently collect, present, defend, and fight for concepts and ideas. I'll leverage those skills to ensure that the CSM retains the voice of the players and that CCP hears it.
Since January 2013 - with a short break - I've maintained the CEO position of Noir. Academy, a PvP training organization. I've been a member of Noir. since 2011, playing as a mercenary, fighting in nullsec, lowsec, highsec, and wormhole space. It's vital that EVE continue to be an environment where independent organizations can make a path for themselves; this is the true EVE dream.
I'll work for you as a CSM member, and I'll work for your vote now. Feel free to ask me anything you like on this thread, on Twitter (@wsethbrown), or by email ([email protected]). My responses to your questions will be aggregated onto the post below.

Psianh is the definition of approachable, friendly, and down to earth. Combining those qualities with his effort and knowledge-base, it becomes near impossible to find a reason not to have him at the top of your ballot. I've had the great privilege of CSM related discussion and interaction in the past, and Psianh has always been honest and upfront about his views, while being available and open-minded.
Wish you the best during your campaign, and look forward to seeing you succeed and support the community this year on CSM X, Psianh.

I am fully endorsing Psianh for CSM. I have had multiple dealings with him and have spoken to him in regards to his campaign and feel that he is exactly the kind of person we all need on the CSM.
It is in the best interest of all players to have a diverse and experienced representative group and I feel that, with the influx of so many new players into Eve, Psianh's unique perspective will be an asset to CCP and to all players moving forward.
Please join me in supporting him for CSM.

Psianh is a cool dude, I spent a while chatting with him IRL last FF. He is smart and knows game mechanics. It is very important to make sure that CSM 10 has broad representation from all types of players, and having someone who knows the mercenary business is super useful. He will certainly be on my ballot, and he should be on yours as well.
Also, his GF is awesome (as long as she hasn't broken up with him yet. If so, she sucks).

This is a pretty broad question, so if I leave something out that you're interested in talking about in more depth, just let me know!
I've always been an optimist, even when it concerns EVE, so I'm very much looking forward to the upcoming changes. I think we're getting some solid improvements and some interesting tweaks.
- Recons - I'm interested to see how this is going to play out. With the shorter release cycles, if the Dscan change doesn't provide fun and engaging gameplay, I'd sincerely hope that it's removed similarly to Teams. I am happy to see the Pilgrim get a little love.
- Tech Three Destroyers - Again, this is going to be an interesting area to keep an eye on, but I'm happy that CCP is taking a step into totally new directions - and how often have you seen threads about creating new destroyers?
- Sovereignty - Mostly, I'm ecstatic that corporations and alliances are being worked on. I doubt we'll have a perfect system in the first pass, but it's imperative that CCP sprinkle in quality of life changes that make the game easier to play without making the game necessarily easier.
In all, EVE is in a very pivotal period in its history. The game has perhaps never been better, from a potential standpoint, and it's important that we continue to push CCP towards the vision that supports exciting, dynamic, and fun gameplay. A small part of me does fear that CCP may try to cut a few corners, especially when it comes to the major gameplay elements of Sovereignty and POSes, but the effort they're putting into gathering player feedback on these subjects does seem to herald a bright future.
If we make sure progress continues.

You mention being ecstatic that corps and alliances are being worked on. What do you think of the recent push by Jayne Fillon, Mangala Solaris, Sugar Kyle and others to broaden player organizations beyond corps and alliances? NPSI standing fleets, incursions, and casual/new player organizations could all conceivably benefit, and in fact alliances could even be reworked as one of these other-than-corp organizations.
Also, as Adam Smith said, a corporation is just a union of companies[1]. What would you think of allowing more fine-grained organization below the corporation level? Or even, as someone (sorry, forget who) suggested, an LDAP/Active Directory style model?
[1] Not so much any more, but that's what they were when he put quill to paper.

[1] Not so much any more, but that's what they were when he put quill to paper.
I've been in pretty close contact with Jayne (we were almost alliance mates there for a bit!), Mangala, and Sugar over the last year and I think the world of all three of them and the work they've put into the game.
I love the idea of NPSI groups, they provide a very interesting gameplay approach to EVE that is unique to EVE, and that's great. The more tools CCP can provide to players to approach the game in their own way, the better. Obviously CCP will always be behind the curve to some degree, but that's understandable.
I'd definitely be in support of additional tools and organizational structures that NPSI communities are interested in having, though my personal feeling is that it's of the utmost importance to iron out the traditional organizational structures first before turning attention to NPSI organizations. They're niche and unique and require abnormal support from my understanding, and due diligence needs to be done to ensure that they retain that unique, niche aspect.
To your second point, I'd also be highly interested in more granular "corporations" that aren't as robust as full corporations with their own drawbacks and advantages. I'd approach this topic with my general mentality:
- What gameplay element does it provide?
- What are its advantages?
- What are its natural disadvantages?
- What disadvantages should be leveraged against it to keep the risk/reward scale balanced?
It's an interesting time to be having discussions of this nature too, as I imagine that the corporate and alliance rework is - if not close to completion - at least in its late design stages, after which the momentum and leverage gained there may be applied to new ideas such as this. Having CSM members who are aware and open to implementing engaging new mechanics like this is definitely going to be important in the near future.

The following is an excerpt of my endorsements for CSMX:
Quote:Psianh and Manny are the two mercenary representatives needed for CSMX. When CCP takes a look at SOV mechanics, Wardec mechanics, piracy, and the various "secs" throughout the game, it is important that the CSM has experienced players speaking to those areas. Psianh has been training mercs for a long time and understands the needs of the players and the areas that need work/help. Manny has been FC'ing and leading within Pandemic Legion, the largest mercenary group in Eve Online, for ages and has been involved in the largest fights in computer gaming history. Manny is also the second of the SOV Trifecta and both of these players should serve on CSMX! The rest of the article/list is found here. Best of luck, Psianh!
