It is initiatives like hulkageddon that make EvE more fun.
So this thread is going to be about how we could extract tears from hulkageddon organizers and participants I figured that the best way would be to just make fun of them. It would not be giving in, to dock your Hulk (or any ship targeted by hulkageddon) while the initiative is running, and instead go out mining every single day (if only for 30 minutes) in a bantam.
I think the idea that a large group of people seeking Hulks (carebears) to destroy for lulz only to find mining bantams everywhere for the full duration of hulkageddon is hilarious.
Keeping your hulk or whatever is targeted docked is also not giving in from a different angle. You would deny them their fun.
Just two things that would be able to extract tears from hulkageddon organizers and its participants and could make us point and laugh. This way, hulkageddon will be enjoyed by a lot more people.
If you also have a hilarious idea on how to make this really funny and enjoyable, please add it to the thread and i will summarize them in the reserved space below. |

That would work if you could actually make every single exhumer/mining barge pilot do as such.
But you can't. |

Sure, can not make them dock up, but i can ask for ideas how to make fun of Hulkageddon and its participants. While also asking to dock up. If they dont, thats fine with me, not my choice to make. |

Make it so that there will only be miners in Bantams for the full duration of hulkageddon by going out mining in a bantam atleast 30 minutes a day. Sign me up. ******* off the pirates can only be fun. And if they shoot my Bantams, who cares. I have dozens of those. No literally. I have dozens. Fully T1 Fitted, ready to be sacrificed. |

Don't you think that switching from a Hulk to a Bantam is somehow "giving in"? |

Nice, you dont need to sign up though, lets just keep this thread alive until the hulkageddon starts and hook up ingame than to form fleets of bantams!
Also producing loads of bantams currently and be handing them out if needed by that time. But im sure anyone can afford to lose some bantams. I am counting on loosing quite a few. |

Why Bantams specifically? There are other really cheap mining vessels, like Ospreys, that wouldn't be worth the sec loss. |

The problem with this, is that Eve has a large amount of players, usually the highbears, who do not engage with the game community in any way. They won't read this, and won't get involved.
Worse than that, they won't even know what Hulkaggedon is.
How do I know?
Because the upcoming Hulkageddon is Hulkageddon FIVE. If highbears actually read these forums and read the warnings, it wouldn't have got past Hulkageddon one. - "Do not touch anything unnecessarily. Beware of pretty girls in dance halls and parks who may be spies, as well as bicycles, revolvers, uniforms, arms, dead horses, and men lying on roads -- they are not there accidentally." -Soviet infantry manual, issued in the 1930's |

I don't care if I wind up having 200 losses during Hulkageddon. I don't care about that. I just want to make fun of the ones killing miners. |

Not really, other people make their choices i make mine. I chose to have fun with it. Its all about me, me and me and those who will also do the same or come up with something on their own.
This will be an magnificent event indeed, cant wait.
I am enjoying this thread aswell, you?

A few points are relevant here.
If you mine in a Bantam you will be mining less per cycle but somewhat to a certain extent offsetting the chances of being ganked sure.
However,
The gauged success of an event is sometimes measured by how many people are affected by the said event.
The fact the event will make you choose to mine in a Bantam instead of a Hulk means the event will affect you.
To that extent the fact you will change your modus operandi means regardless of what tears you believe you will extract it is indeed you who will be disadvantaged and at a loss mineral extraction wise.
Lets not kid ourselves here - regardless of what Lulz you think you will experience mining in a Bantam deep down your going to be mad that your yield per cycle and cargo space suck balls. Black Man with Goggles |

The gauge of succes in regards to making fun of hulkageddon and its participants is measured by the amount of stomach ache afterwards.
And posts like these ofcourse.
(unless you realy think im out mining for best yield per cycle during hulkageddon in a bantam, which i dont mind either) |

Every year someone tries to organize the miners to "do something". And every year it fails. Why? Because the miners don't want to do something, that's why they're mining in the first place. |

Appearantly not, so i copied some more ideas below, also note im still hoping some other people have some great ideas aswell. We might change plans to redicule on a daily basis if we have enough.
Copy summary:
Make it so that there will only be miners in Bantams for the full duration of hulkageddon by going out mining in a bantam atleast 30 minutes a day.
Dock up anything that is targeted by Hulkageddon for the full duration
Ideas that just came in:
Pretend to be a participant and by accident miss the exhumer and hit the participants (fly cheap and do say sorry for the full effect)
Pretend to be a participant and bump into them while they try to take someone down (fly cheap and do say sorry for the full affect)
Go out in fleets of bantams to mine the nulsec belts of the participants (leave implants at home)
Or go out in fleets of the cheapest Badgers you can find and act like bots to get a point across.
If you get caught, dont forget to point and laugh.
Above all, have fun with it.
EDIT: If you like this, please spread the word amongst those that do not read the forums. |

I don't think you really get who is the loser in this situation but if LOL@U I MIEN IN BANTAM makes you feel empowered then I guess I could treat you to some new crayons too.
Anyway it's obvious you are trolling because no one is that dim but have fun shiptoasting; it's obvious you aren't actually willing to do anything noteworthy. (a¦á_a¦â) ~ Get Out, Nasty Face ~ (a¦á_a¦â)

The impending actions of others have fondled you into action and subsequently you have taken time out of your life to conjure this marvellous devious, scheming and cunning plan.
The fact remains that in a game you pay to play the actions of others are influencing you to change your play style.
The loss is yours.
You want to drink Wine but the threat of your humble mining vessel being violenced means you have to drink Water instead.
It is also moot to suggest explaining this to you is shedding tears.

Summary of thread.
Hulkageddon isn't just about exploding hulks. Anything that even slightly related to mining is fair game including Orcas if you really want to blow enough ISK with a group of people to take it out of the sky. Industrial ships too. Your bantams just provide people with a very soft target to explode with pretty much anything they have lying around.
I don't see how this is getting back at the people who participate in hulkageddon, the point of which is to make mining ships explode. You have not suggested anything to reduce the number of mining ship explosions. |

I fail to see the difference between killing a defenceless Bantam vs killing a defenceless Hulk. The only difference is cost, neither is "more manly" or less pathetic than the other. It's all blowing up people's stuff.

And if you have 200 Bantams on your Killboard, it might as well imply that you're only good at picking on new players. |

I beg to differ. I say the best way to enjoy the tears is to tank your exhumer as much as possible and mine to your heart's content. If you join fleet with FCs, WCs, and/or SCs that provide bonuses, then your tank will benefit from it.
The reasoning behind this is simple (two fold actually):
First, the stronger your tank, the more alpha it will take to kill your mining vessel. This means more ships needed (if flying anything smaller than a BC), better modules and ammo needed (if solo ganking), or more than one Brutix is required or perhaps a single Tempest or tier 3 BC that is fitted for maximum alpha damage (if it takes this much to kill your ship, you're doing an ok job).
Second, demand for minerals, modules, and ships increase with every ship lost. This means that if you have minerals posted in the sell orders, they will go out quicker as more ships are built to meet the demand. This should make it worthwhile to go out and mine in a Hulk while the event is running.
Of course, some gankers will scan their target for fits ahead of time to see what kind of damage is really needed so that they don't have to blindly gank to gauge their prey. If you find yourself being scanned (which is impossible to tell due to passive targeters unless the scout is stupid) then you have two options: stay and see how long you can survive or just run. More than likely you won't have time to run if you're not aligned and they are already on top of you with their "get-ready-to-be-pwned" gank ships. |

It does make a difference to me, i think the difference is hilarious, specially the intention that lies behind it. |

And if you have 200 Bantams on your Killboard, it might as well imply that you're only good at picking on new players.
This is a bad thing?

Fun with hulkageddon:
Mine in groups of properly-tanked hulks. It's a lot more efficient to do this for a group than one-by-one, and having extra EHP makes the difference in whether or not you lose a ship.
Park a cloaked Falcon near your mining fleet. As soon as the gank starts they'll get a criminal tag and your falcon can lock and jam them, spoiling the gank AND getting you a killmail. Troll away, collect any tears that come, and enjoy the highs that come with beating other people in Eve instead of mining rocks.
edit: I gave up mining at all months ago but I do think I'll spend HAG prowling the belts looking for likely targets so that I can ***** some concord killmails and possibly save a few miners. Why? Because it'll be funny as hell. |

That is way to much fun for the geddon crew, i rather just point and laugh.

I think we have a challenge, and you are right, there will b miners that will think they will be safe. Yet, i still feel good if i can manage it a few times as a surprise.

Just for grins: A triple-webbing frigate alt slowing your hulk down can drop its speed to 19 m/s (and that's with all L5 skills). That means you could align to your station/POS/whatever and mine for as long as it takes to fill your hold without flying out of range of your rocks.
Better yet, two hulks triple-webbing each other. If you're attentive you can insta-warp them both out.

Another thing sir, and for everyone liking this idea enough to give it a go, lets get organized before hulkageddon actually starts.
Please let us use in game email to get organized and have some superb jokes ready to have a laugh. All ideas are welcome, though this is about pointing and laughing.
They will scan out exhumers, we will have to prepare the counter for that so they will still only find bantams all yelling *Surprise!* when they arrve at the belts. We will need a bait exhumer and all chip in if it gets lost anyway. Nobody should suffer large losses.
If it starts early, or unexpected, we should get together immediatly for appropriate clownage.
Looking forward to it!

I just think organizing having all the Bantams in one place will be counter-productive. Spreading them out, however, will increase our visibility and potentially let us recruit more players to join our cause. |

You are absolutely right.
Yes definitly spread out, also, to protect our identities and trust ( it is eve after all, their will be people trying to figure out what we up to) we should all organize our own groups (fleets). Just coordinate the joke we are going to pull. We can exchange pics, youtubes etc. afterwards.

I think if I'm lucky, I can get my entire corp to jump on this train. If that happens, we're one step closer to achieving our primary objective. Time to produce more Bantams and Miner I's. No need to lose too much on this. |

You hear? Please. It's no secret that that is what this corp was designed for. You also can't be a few steps ahead if you don't know where I'm going with it.
Just remember that Hulkageddon exists primarily for ***** & giggles. It is incredibly difficult to upset people that aren't taking things seriously. It was like Nathan Jameson suggesting that there are ships other than the Bantam that aren't worth the sec loss. Wut? I believe the vast majority of participants would be happy to gank an Ibis so long as it is mining.
Anyways, I'd better let you get back to your planning. |

Now this is getting more and more hilarious.
I just gotten the following mail from goonfleet. Are they not the sweetest bunch? _______________________________________________________________________________________
Safe mining during Hulkaggedon! From: Rain Tian Sent: 2011.12.08 19:41 To: Tiger Would,
Hello!
I thought you might be interested in our Amnesty program for miners. We’re currently extending this to a small group of miners to test the waters and see how things go.
A full outline of the program can be found at http://goonfleet.net/miners/
The short and sweet version is that, for a small fee, we can have your character(s) added to our global no kill list. This would exclude you from our suicide operations in mining, (not just ice mining anymore!)
We intend to keep this as a very small group, and slots are first come first serve. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask.
Please calculate the value of your alts on the afore-mentioned link, and let me know the characters names. This is very important. Without this, I cannot add you to the white list to ensure you are not attacked.
Kind regards,
Rain |

The best way to extract tears is to actually FIT YOUR BLOODY SHIPS for the risk. Best laugh I've had was with some failganker that pew'd on my Hulk with a T2 fit Brutix and promptly was rewarded with CONCORDokken. Me? I continued my ice mining, looted his wreck, and made some isk on his fail.
Fit the ships correctly and it won't be the miner's tears that flow.

Did you see the mail by the way on the previous page from goonfleet, i guess it is getting under the skin a bit.
As for what your suggesting, it would be just perfect if whole areas will only have mining bantams. If we do see someone mining (we could scout out before) in exhumer what ever we could ask them to temporarely switch to bantam. Atleast untill they cleared the area.
We dont need to do it all day, actually only when they are in the area, we will discuss details i suppose on ingame mail.
I can also see something else, maybe fit one miner and one gun. When a few arrive focus on one of them and see if we can bring that one attacker down before they got all the bantams.
Quite crued plan, but i have many to discuss with you, and am all ears what else you could suggest. (and others ofcourse) |

Like you said, just plain good old-fashioned fun. Agreed. I know that my base-of-operations is a good place to start. There tends to be somewhere between 70 and 200 players in that system, so the odds of being ganked are quite high. |

also the whole "let's go to nullsec and mine out their belts" thing is kinda dumb unless you have a ship to tank the rats (they bite quite a bit harder than the Serpentis Spy's peashooter)

It is way more i expected, which actually adds to the fun.
As for your suggestions, yes please let us meet up outside forums to discuss further details and i am really curious what it is your thinking about.
I got much more ideas now aswell.
We could probably pull different stunts daily. |

True.
But while we discussing outside the forum, lets keep the thread alive so all the spreading of this word is not going to waste.
We could use more people.
You have got your mates, i got mine, and 2 others in this thread and their friends, i trust will also get the word around. We need this thread for scaling up operations. ( more areas to be covered )

We'll want this counter to span several regions. I can even try and let someone my CEO is negotiating with know of this, as he also seems to be quite annoyed with pirates, when he's not war-decced. If lucky, we'll have him and maybe some of his contacts join our campaign. If not, it was worth a shot. Either way, we'll want to have as many people join this as possible. |

As I walk in a narrow line with the others, relying on the touch of my comrade's shoulder for guidance due to my night blindness, I come to the realization that life is truly wonderful. I have lost my house, my property. My friends, parents, and cousins have been executed, and my wife reduced to a common *****. I do not know where my children are; I just know that my masters need more soldiers. I also know that they need the ore we extract from the mining shafts they force us to work.
The daily gruel we get is cold and stringy; no surprise, as our shattered microeconomy affords us nothing but the expired leftovers not even suitable for the masters' livestock. We mine not with picks and machinery, but with loose stones and our own bare hands.
So I walk. I walk, and upon hearing another command barked by one of the masters' lieutenants, I turn my head to meet the voice's direction. I smile. My lips are cracked with thirst, and my teeth are loose from the overseers' savage blows, but I smile. I know what true happiness is like. This is the best day of my life.

IP addresses cannot be shared on the public network that is the internet, you can have duplicates in different networks like local ones as long as the duplicates are on separate subnets but out in the public interbutts at a single moment every address is unique from the other.
But are the mad ravings of a schizophrenic the same person, really? Or, are they multiple broken people all wrapped up in one crazy shell? |

Nah, rather point and laugh sir. Me is told Hulgageddon is for giggles, did not like the ruleset, so i made my own ruleset to have fun and giggles with hulkageddon, keeping the tradition of giggles alive. Its just different people getting giggles.
But please do tank your Hulk and good luck. |

Aint that something, not only actually taking part in Hillbillageddon, but also truly enjoying it. It does seem some people have a problem with us creating our own ruleset for joining in.
But thats ok.
With the surprises we are currently lining up, we are going to have a ball.
@ Hulkageddon org and participants, we are not out on ruining your day, we are out to make our day and the day of those who are joining us. Stomack ache because of laughter will be our gauge of succes. |

It is quite hilarious to me that a schizofrenic nooblet fat kid that is also Gollum and Smeagol to be able to pull this much attention and is able to get under the skin of all these wise man and woman without firing a single shot, dont you?

Yes, it need to be as long as Hulkageddon, but it doesn't need to be longer than Hulkageddon. If Hulkageddon lasts for a week, this needs to last at least a week. If they extend Hulkageddon's duration, this needs to be extended to match Hulkageddon's duration at all times (not necessarily if they somehow decide to shorten Hulkageddon.

Ah, that is what i meant. You are absolutely right.
I do not see the point in keeping a duration though when Hulkageddon shortens its lifespan. Their would be no people to pull the stunts on. |

The struggle to sound coherent is almost tangible. I don't see any of the people who you have defined as "mad" or have "gotten under the skin of" as you describe.

The tears have started and there's still 4 weeks to go. Looks like Hulkageddon V will be the best yet.

No, this will turn into a event wich will always allign with Hulkageddon or simular events. You must have read my thoughts since it does seem an obligation to move it to the next level.

We do not condone PVP. But making fun of others isn't PVP. Since when was flying out in a Bantam during Hulkageddon PVP?
The line you quoted simply means that we do not accept that our members actively seek out and shoot other players. Besides, I'm the co-founder. I can do this if I want to. It's my own ships anyway. |

The irony of this thread is that all the hulk pilots are reduced to frigates yet the pvpers lose nothing? Lol this is a pathetic attempt to set up a retaliatory event, in fact all you're doing is submitting to the fact that you're going to get ganked and so have decided to mine in a frig instead. Oh the tears.. just too much..
What happens when the pvpers decide to just ignore all the few and far-between bantams. Lets put it into perspective.. You go out to mine in your shiny fleet of bantams, taking in your pitiful yield whilst laughing and chortling amongst yourselves - "Silly silly pvpers! We've showed them!" 2 days have passed and still no pvpers come to gank you and all you hungry miners get bored. Then what? Then you get back into your hulks and you do what you do best. Thats when the ganking starts.
Funny thing is the op will probably quote me and say "Ahh your tears are delicious *grinz*"

They are delicious, so you got one part right.
There are so many ways to make fun of you, hillbillageddon and its participants. Flying bantams is only a fraction of what we got in mind for you.

Make it so that there will only be miners in Bantams for the full duration of hulkageddon by going out mining in a bantam atleast 30 minutes a day.
Dock up anything that is targeted by Hulkageddon for the full duration
Ideas that just came in:
Pretend to be a participant and by accident miss the exhumer and hit the participants (fly cheap and do say sorry for the full effect)
Pretend to be a participant and bump into them while they try to take someone down (fly cheap and do say sorry for the full affect)
Go out in fleets of bantams to mine the nulsec belts of the participants (leave implants at home)
Or go out in fleets of the cheapest Badgers you can find and act like bots to get a point across.
If you get caught, dont forget to point and laugh.
Above all, have fun with it.

Channels will be made public monday. People who want to join in are welcome.
The practical jokes that will be pulled are being worked out. People joining in will adhire to these tactics that we have worked out.
Ofcourse you are also free to give your own twist to this, yet you will have to organize those on your account. These will not fall under hillbillageddon event.
We already have quite a list of practical jokes.
Since this is turning into a alligned event called "hillbillagedon"., this event will always start when hulkageddon or simular event starts.
A website will soon be up (working on content) Your ideas are therefor still welcome, and might be worked out for the next time this event takes place.
Kind regards,
T. Would
P.S. We do not want hulkageddon event to be stopped, it is these kind of events that make EvE more fun. We just want another event who is just out to make fun of hulkageddon and is an event in itself. The Hillbillageddon event can only exist if there is a hulkageddon or simular event. So we do hope to see many more hulkageddons. |

This info has been added to the initial post. ________________________________________
I have been getting a lot of positive and negative respons to these ideas. After much debate and discussion it has been decided to take this to a different level. Trust, it seems, is a big issue in EvE, bigger than it was anticipated to be.
There are not going to be any ingame channels for discussing or coordinating efforts to make some of the practical jokes we have lined up work. There will be a website announced with information regarding Hillbillageddon.
Thats right, we turned it into an alligned event towards hulkageddon and or simular events. Every time hulkageddon starts, Hillbillageddon starts. Hillbillageddon is the name we chose for the event that has one goal, pull practical jokes on hulkageddon parties.
Not by trying to get them ganked while they are out to gank you. No, it is about finding the most hilarious way to make these parties look "stupid" and will provide stomach ache of laughter for the people pulling off the practical joke on the hulkageddon parties.
You will be able to win a price for the most hilarious succesfull attempt. Your proof, a youtube inc. an convo will be judged and published on the before mentioned website. (website adress will soon be published)
We will provide an crude example at the end of this post to give you an idea what we are talking about, but we have come to understand you guys have even more imagination than any of us, so we are really looking forward to what you can come up with.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________ Prices ______
Since we are still looking for sponsorships / donations, we have only one price to give away for the first run ever of this event. (If Donations are being made, this will be changed). We might be able to extend the prices that can be won and maybe have second and third place prices aswell.
We will pay 300 Million ISK for the best, succesfull practical joke on hulkageddon parties, that is proven by a youtube and a convo. All real entries will be posted on the before mentioned website (adress will be published shortly, upcoming week)
______________________________________________________________________________________________ If not counter gank, what are we talking about? ________________________________________ Here is an crude idea. Having posts in many systems to scout out hulkageddon parties. Once found setup asteroid/ice belts with a few or single exhumer alligned to disappear. X number of bantams (10 for example) are standing by to fly in. Have sscanning team to scan out for the incoming hulkageddon party. Once detected they are closing in fast, the Exhumer(s) disappear, the bantams fly in and start mining. For best effect before the party arrives, so youll have to coordinate it precisely. Once the party arrives you Point and Laugh, maybe yelling *SURPRISE*.
This is one crude example, which you may ofcourse use and finetune to your needs. Or you come with something way more hilarious.
More info on website coming soon, if we receive donations, it will be notified on this thread and on the website.
The gauge of this events succes (Hillbillageddon) is the amount of stomach ache of laughter.
Have a good time! |

I used to get a lot of comments from Joe and Socratic about how they were all laughing at me, while the rest of C&P were busy laughing at him.
So he is inviting folks of like minds to him, who may find the 'jokes' he has lined up hilarious. Why he would look *here* is beyond me as the assumed majority of folks on here find Hulkageddon hilarious and would find the ideas of his practical jokes at the very best 'interesting' in the same way as a non numismatist would find a fifty year old coin in a handful of change.
Only those people...the joke numismatists of EvE..will get and appreciate his practical jokes.
Maybe they lurk in C&P? Who knows. But those people are his actual audience. -- You are the internet equivalent of a Mars bar filled with stupid. |

At least he's trying to do something. For most high sec miners, hulkageddon is indeed a pain in the ass and it's pretty annoying to not be able to fight back. I mean, if we shoot back at the gankers with anything, we'll get concorded as well.
I know you will say that going to null sec would be a good option to do that. However, we need a pretty good PVP fleet to conquer a high sec system and have any chance of keeping it and that is'nt an opportunity for my corp or me, atm thus why, i am in high sec.
Oh well, gonna have to mine elsewhere, like in a worm hole for example. |

Who knows what they will come up with, i dont mind if you do not see where this is getting at.
You should be happy though, because not only will it entice miners to have some fun with hulkageddon participants and make some ISK doing it if they succeed and are voted best practical joke, it will also enhance the fun for Hulkageddon parties, since if enough people play, it will be just that little bit harder and therefor also enhances hukageddon.
This is just their so the other side of the barrel has a chance to have some fun with it to. |

Why fight why its pretty obvious, reading from these reactions throughout the thread, that this must be what they fear most. Jokes being pulled on them by miners!!!

We are very aware and realistic enough to see there still be succesfull hulkageddon parties. Ofcourse their will be miners still mining in exhumers, barges and whatever is targeted.
We are only giving some of the giggles of hulkageddon to the miners who would like to take on this challenge by spoiling some of the hulkageddon parties and win a nice price doing so.
Dont get us wrong, We have nothing against hulkageddon as it does add to the game. We also have nothing against adding more facets to that event for a different type of giggle.
In the end, we all play this game for a good laugh. |

I was entertaining a few ways of annoying the gankers, namely having a full logistics wing alongside a full hulk fleet at all times. Sure its somewhat cumbersome, but having 2 basilisks assigned to every 4 hulks would result in the kind of tanking power you normally see in (bad) incursion fleets. Hulks that recharge shields as fast as they can be shot down; recipe for lulz. |

Perhaps you should take another week off, so that you can put in some overtime at your McJob to be able to afford to sell a PLEX for ISK? |

And if you win, actually get something for your trouble for sharing your laughs!
People should think about this, well ofcourse i would say that, but how are your chances of winning anything in hulkageddon, you already know who is going to run away with the prices. |

Well, it does not surprise me on the other hand, that a non-industrialist does not see why it is important to buy cheap and sell high and/or stretch your ISK as much as you can. |

If these people weren't lazy loser degenerates, and actually bothered to apply enough Axe bodyspray to mask their odor for the duration of a job interview, they wouldn't be "economically disparaged."
See, this is exactly why we predators will always be winners, while you, and the foodstamp-collecting ninnies you argue for, will always be losers. It's also the reason you mine in high-sec; lapping up the scraps in an MMO videogame is arguably the last avenue for you to experience the feeling of productivity. The rest of us do well enough that we don't have to put up with the soul-crushing monotony of riskless high-sec grinding. We can buy any ships or modules we want, while you're forced to play solitaire during Hulkageddon, and permanently unsubscribe if, God forbid, you lose your one and only exhumer.
I assure you that I'm not the cause of your wish to vomit. If anything, it's your body's desire to purge itself of the ignorance of your uneducated reasoning. That, or the tree bark you had for dinner, peasant. |

Could you also share your view on the monotony of riskless high-sec ganking and your need to insult people at a personal level? What exactly do you think you gain by that, personally?
Ofcourse you are free to "enjoy" the game any way you like, as do I, as does Krixtal and any other player for that matter. You do not need to like it. To me, we are all just a bunch of pixel pirates in game and none of the in-game issues make me feel better or worse in real life. It is a game.
I dont mind you posting like this, trying to insult, it will keep this thread alive and on first page, hell i will even +1 you for doing so.

Previously reserved space is updated with the following information: ________________________________________________
Hillbillageddon Season I Website is up! (goto http://eve-universe-events.webklik.nl/page/hillbillageddon-s-i )
We have been getting a lot of positive and negative respons to the Hillbillageddon idea. After much debate and discussion it has been decided to take this to a different level. Trust, it seems, is a big issue in EvE, bigger than it was anticipated to be.
There are not going to be any ingame channels for discussing or coordinating efforts from our side, we leave that upto you and your mates. We ourselves are not eligible for the nice prizes we have made available for this contest.
Thats right, we have turned this initiative into an alligned event (Contest) towards the hulkageddon event. Every time hulkageddon starts, Hillbillageddon starts. Hillbillageddon is the name we chose for the event that has one goal, pull practical jokes on hulkageddon parties.
Contest goals
It is not the primary goal to get hulkageddon parties ganked while they are out to gank you. No, it is primarely about finding the most hilarious way of pulling of an practical joke on these hulkageddon parties which provides stomach ache of laughter for the people pulling off the practical joke on the hulkageddon parties and people visiting this site looking at your results. A counter gank is a bonus but will only enhance your chances of winning if it is a final part of an eloborate joke (scheme).
Crude example:
Having posts in many systems to scout out hulkageddon parties. Once found, setup asteroid/ice belts with a few or single exhumer(s) alligned to disappear. An X number of bantams (10 for example) are standing by to fly in. Have a sscanning team to scan out for the incoming hulkageddon party. Once detected they are closing fast, the Exhumer(s) disappear, the bantams fly in and start mining. For best effect, you should be ready with this manouvre before the party arrives, so youll have to coordinate it precisely. Once the party arrives you Point and Laugh, maybe yelling *SURPRISE*.
This is one crude example, which you may ofcourse use and finetune to your needs. But we have come to understand you guys are way more inventive than any of us to find a hilarious way to fool these hulkageddon parties.
Prizes
The following prizes have been made available for the most hilarious practical joke pulled on Hulkageddon parties:
1st prize : a 30 day PLEX
2nd prize : 200 Million ISK
3rd prize : 100 Million ISK
(With thanks to our members who came up with money and ISK to make these prizes available) If your corporation or alliance feel like further spicing up this prize pool, please contact "Tiger Would" by EvE-mail.
How to enter in this contest
Figure out a way to pull off this practical Joke on hulkageddon parties/participats and pull it of while hulkageddon is running. When you send in your results, provide an explanation on the "script"or "plan" you used. You also will have to capture it on video and upload it on youtube. A copy of the conversations taking place while pulling of this practical joke would enhance your chances. Your material will be reviewed and we will find out if it is fake or not.
When everything is n order your material will be put on this website and people will be able to vote for best practical joke. Once Hulkageddon finishes, Hillbnillageddon also finishes. The best practical joke, 1st and 2nd runner up will be awarded the before mentioned prizes
You can send in your contest results at: [email protected]
The gauge of this events succes (Hillbillageddon) is the amount of stomach ache because of laughter.
Have a good time! |

SEE what I meant earlier about neurotic, psychotic hostility ??? Now they are making fun of economically disparaged people.You are dragging the game and your insults WAY too far into Real Life to even be considered healthy. You make me want to vomit. Hostile? No. Objective? Yes. If these people weren't lazy loser degenerates, and actually bothered to apply enough Axe bodyspray to mask their odor for the duration of a job interview, they wouldn't be "economically disparaged." See, this is exactly why we predators will always be winners, while you, and the foodstamp-collecting ninnies you argue for, will always be losers. It's also the reason you mine in high-sec; lapping up the scraps in an MMO videogame is arguably the last avenue for you to experience the feeling of productivity. The rest of us do well enough that we don't have to put up with the soul-crushing monotony of riskless high-sec grinding. We can buy any ships or modules we want, while you're forced to play solitaire during Hulkageddon, and permanently unsubscribe if, God forbid, you lose your one and only exhumer. I assure you that I'm not the cause of your wish to vomit. If anything, it's your body's desire to purge itself of the ignorance of your uneducated reasoning. That, or the tree bark you had for dinner, peasant. I have never quit playing during H'geddon. No reason to. Some people want high sec life as casual players who just want something to do in the evening CASUALLY. Not me, but More than you would ever think. Now to the meat of the matter: We are all so happy that you think you have already WON The Game of Life !!!BS. I suggest you look up the definition of the psychological condition known as megalomaniacal infantilism. The above is a veritable checklist for the condition.

That's the funny thing here, I don't think he does. As far as I know (and I'm happy to be corrected) he just wants a laugh - preferably at the gankers expense.

No, seriously, do you think this is ever going to work? You had to reach the hardcore miners for that and 96% of the miners don't even login in the forums or have them ever visitied. At least half of them don't eve know how to access them.
I don't belong either to the one nor the other side and still I will say, this isn't going to work. There will be Hulks everywhere, more than enough, not just Bantams.

To be honest, we where not sure our research over the past 2 years and the conslusions we came to where correct. But as of the very initial post it seemed to be spot on.
We are now certain it will work.
Ofcourse we are also realistic enough that not all hulkageddon parties will get the surprise we are hoping on. We do however see how this event is going to get better each Hulkageddon and get more participants at every run..
Ide say Hillbillgeddon is put onto the EvE-map and is here to stay.

BS.
I suggest you look up the definition of the psychological condition known as megalomaniacal infantilism. The above is a veritable checklist for the condition.
And your use of the word Ninny indicates Great Britain. I believe you Euros are having some 'Financial Issues'. After the collapse finally hits you, your retirement is gone, there are NO jobs, food prices skyrocket (I'm just describing America ATM).................. lets re-read the above in about 12 months and then see how you feel in the dole line.
You need to get, not out of the game, but off the Earth, or plant yourself on a shrink's couch for awhile. You have LOT's to discuss.
Maybe Oprah can offer some assistance as well......... Damn homeboy, I don't think I won the game of life, I know I won the game of life. I don't have any of your bullshit, made-up "psychological conditions." I'm simply a winner, and you're simply a loser. You're just grasping at straws, desperately trying to rationalize away your reality, while I'm paying taxes that make sure your jobless ass can put four types of deep-fried meat on the dinner platter for your overweight children.
And I'm not British; I'm American, you dolt. But a real American, not some country bumpkin from the boonies like yourself. The reason why the Euros are having the same financial issues is because the Euros are also full of intellectually-deficient carebears like yourself. America and Europe are both full of people who'd rather mine in a .9 instead of try to make some real ISK doing a man's job.
But hey, whatever floats your boat. This is America, so you're free to be an ignorant idiot if you so desire. Go ahead and park your barge near the CONCORD spawn, and waste another eight hours of your life with an "I'm just trying to make the best of the situation :)" attitude.
Just remember what our good British friend Sean Connery said in one of his documentaries: "Losers always whine about their "best," winners go home and **** the prom queen." |

Now that would be fun. The Killer-Hulks strike back! THAT would be some real surprise to the Hulkageddon fleets. instead of ganking Hulks to being ganked by Hulks lol
Unfortunately, like the mindset of most carebears is you won't get them into that kind of fun. They would prefer to think they are safe by taking "precautions" or just staying docked instead of striking back. Though I had like to see that, would make Hulkageddon itself a more fun event.
Even better would be, to selfdestruct your Hulk when you see the fleet jumping in (you might be dead anyway)... the tears would be on those not getting their killmails and the surprise on their faces every ISK worth lol

Well, more or less. This contest is not primarely about counter ganking, that might just be an bonus to an eloborate joke (scheme). It is not needed to win the contest.
I can see tanked mining vessels cloak up with combat drone filled dronebays because of knowing they got incoming (by scan) (cheap ships flying in to mine). When the party arrives and offgaurd, ships decloak, drones are released....and so on. http://eve.battleclinic.com/loadout/38989-Cloaked-Hulk.html
I dont see why i would want to blow up such a beautifull vessel (Hulk), specially when its mine and doing it myself.

As much as people may be having a go at the OP I think its a fun idea and that everyone arguing for one way or the other is kind of missing the point. No matter how much or how little effect this actually has at the end of the day its still a player taking a situation, making something new and interesting out of it and inviting people to join in, which is something I think should be applauded no matter which side of the fence it comes from.
And for the record I've been a pirate for over 3 years now and I'll be out violencing miners during hulkageddon just like other people, but if they can get me with something like this then I'll just laugh right along with them then get right back to the boat violence. |

Its hard to believe how pirates feel eve as "just a game" (their words, plasted everywhere) and laugh at others "tears" yet you got 17 pages of crap in a bad idea thread about "just a game"...this smells like here is someone else than "carebears" crying for "just a game"...
And about the original idea, yea, sure...play the game as you want...after all...ITS JUST A GAME |

Well there are all sorts of things to do during Hulkageddon in counter to their ploys...but too many of tehm can easily swing back the other way.
Still...
equip every one of the bantam group with jammers or tackling equipment. As soon as they shoot for Hulkaeedon score, your job becomes to makes sure they stay to greet CONCORD. New timers are pretty short.
Bantams are leiglibele to be shot for Hulkageddon scores but best jokes may involve sacrificial Hulk. Or do they? How about a fleet of reppers? at very close safe point or cloaked. Probably have to have first reppers be something else already onsite, since real reppers will be delayed by flight or uncloak for up to 35 seconds. Or can some of the more creative types figure out how to web 2-3 hulks or Orca and 3-4 Hulks? The idea here is DELAY the Hulk/Orca kill until CONCORD shows. Hey have that Bantam tackling squad show up too. |

Ummm, I dont think escape is the plans of the ganker... you cant run from Concord anyway.
Logi seems a logical way to curtail/offset much of the aggression but if that seems to be the lightbulb that doesnt ever go off with the those that would be shot.
also
I'm not sure if/how the mechanic works these days but if the ganked really wanted some payback without venturing into the scary lo or nullsec areas is there any reason not to take advantage of "Kill Rights"? Hey, its a free shot at those naughty ebildewers isnt it?

When i found out the name "Hillbillageddon" was not a funny joke but more the actual description from where all the ideas came from i laughed very hard
Way to go m8 Go for it line up all the bantams and see your self and all your pals get blown away by rifters instead.
The only way to stick it to the gankers is make yourself ALOT harder to actually be ganked not easier. You were already givin the perfect idea how to do it but just dismiss it like its nothing which suits the Hillbilly title i guess.
Just go use the dmn rokh's and actually make it more of a challenge for both sides for a change. |

OH MY!!
You are the 30th or so goonfed pet that regurgitates/parrots the same nonsens over and over again, clearly not understanding or having read the contest details. When are you people (goonfed) actually become challenging to be ridiculed? Where is the innovative approach filled with humor goons use to have (hated or loved)? Did it leave with the greater goon?
Your corp (NED-Clan) is actually founded by a fellow dutchman, i would expect so much more from you. As dutchman are traders by nature, i dont get it, you know it is only a matter of time untill some goon director kicks you out and pockets all assets into his personal account.
Have a peek into the future if goonfed doesn't stop being so damn boring:

Sir, ide urge you to figure out the details, pull it off while capturing it on video. Than send in your entry to this contest. Than we can all enjoy the footage and you might win A PLEX, 300 Million or 100 Million ISK if voted best practical joke by the public.
Even the real pirates, would laugh with you. |

I usually lump all my responses into a single post. Just right-click the posts you want to directly reply to, select "Open link in new tab/window," and then copy/paste the code from there into your new post.

Nice to see someone having a little fun with the usual suspects. The two little bees on their knees trying desperately to get Mitten's approval. That lame duck TEARS trying to hang on to former glory. Helicity the megalomaniac, living proof that CCP can't be arsed to stick with their own rules. Various brave throw away alts posting like they are somehow important and have an opinion.

OH! I get it now! For days I have been reading through this thread, trying to figure out what was happening. The OP kept saying things like "we will sit in our Bantams, laughing at the gankers" and referring to it as a "joke". I have been sitting here thinking, "Wait... aren't jokes funny? Don't you laugh at things that are funny?"
Then it suddenly occurred to me...
Years and years and YEARS ago... (yes, I am old... probably older than most of you)... I saw a kid who went to high school with me getting a "swirly" on a nearly daily basis from a small group of idiotic jocks. They picked on this poor kid because he was lacking in social graces, athletic ability, fashion sense, etc... you know the type.
It was sad, really. I, myself, did not have the social clout to keep this poor kid from getting his head dunked each day, so I was powerless to stop it.
One day, he got a "clever" idea. He started wearing ratty t-shirts and threadbare jeans to school. He would dress in his worst clothes, looking rather ridiculous and... well... bad. Then, after getting his swirly, he would "mock" the guys who did it to him. He would pretend that their efforts were in vain because they were getting his cheapest, worst clothes wet instead of his nice school clothes. It was sad, because as he "laughed" at the jerks doing this to him, you could tell from the cracking of his voice and the shininess of his eyes that he was actually on the verge of crying, but he clung to the "joke" that he "played" on his tormentors as his "clever revenge". He INSISTED that he got one over on those guys, but you could see in his eyes that he was deluding himself. No one else laughed. No one else thought that he won, or that he came out on top. Eventually, I think the jerks felt bad for him, and left him alone.
This has obvious parallels to what is happening in this thread except for the following things: 1) Imaginary spaceships being blown up in a game is not bullying, 2) The guys who blow up the spaceships are not jerks, per se... they are playing a game and not actually hurting anyone. 3) They are not going to feel bad for you, OP, and they are not going to leave you alone.
They don't care that you are wearing your worst clothes (i.e. the Bantams)... and we can hear the tears through your laughter.
Incidentally, I do not take part in hulkageddon. I smile when I see that it is on, amused, and pleased that I play a game where the players make their own content, but I then do things that are profitable and more fun. So if you mark me with the flag "ganker", well... have fun with that. I am merely a passive observer. |

They don't care that you are wearing your worst clothes (i.e. the Bantams)... and we can hear the tears through your laughter.
Incidentally, I do not take part in hulkageddon. I smile when I see that it is on, amused, and pleased that I play a game where the players make their own content, but I then do things that are profitable and more fun. So if you mark me with the flag "ganker", well... have fun with that. I am merely a passive observer.
Got to hand it to you, you are one of the few with some form of imagination.

True, checked the post by Charanista and found someone with some kind of imagination. Which was refreshing. Other than that, it only contained self indulgence which to me, is a bit like masturbating. And i get it, to some, self indulgence is best indulgence.
I guess people in C&P just get a hard-on from copy/pasting "popular" believe. (Which is an weakness in itself in regards to EvE gameplay and politics, it makes for good slaves)
Now we have gotten that out of the way, is there anything else i can do for you sir?

Seriously though, hulkageddon doesn't gank helpless carebears, they gank ignorant carebears. Huge difference there. I'm a carebear but I'm not an ignorant one. I've never lost a hulk to hulkageddon and I never will. Someday hopefully I'll claim a few kills of my own though. |

Read half the thread. OP is an idiot. Basic summary of the thread is this:
OP: Gankers are planning to run around shooting miners in the foot OP: To grief the gankers, we will amputate our feet so that they cannot be shot! Ganker 1: Miners are not organised enough to collectively amputate their feet on cue OP: lol ganker tears! Ganker 2: You know amputating your foot is worse than having it shot right? OP: lol ganker tears!
Protip OP: You are not trolling the gankers by effectively giving in to them. They are not crying. You do not know what tears are. Pointing and laughing just makes you look stupid (see: swirly kid story, above).
All that said, the image of a gank fleet warping into a belt expecting to find one or more hulks and instead finding an army of bantams is quite amusing, so I hope some miners actually pull this off and put the fraps on youtube. |

The OP kept saying things like "we will sit in our Bantams, laughing at the gankers" and referring to it as a "joke". I have been sitting here thinking, "Wait... aren't jokes funny? Don't you laugh at things that are funny?"
Then it suddenly occurred to me...
Years and years and YEARS ago... (yes, I am old... probably older than most of you)... I saw a kid who went to high school with me getting a "swirly" on a nearly daily basis from a small group of idiotic jocks. They picked on this poor kid because he was lacking in social graces, athletic ability, fashion sense, etc... you know the type.
It was sad, really. I, myself, did not have the social clout to keep this poor kid from getting his head dunked each day, so I was powerless to stop it.
One day, he got a "clever" idea. He started wearing ratty t-shirts and threadbare jeans to school. He would dress in his worst clothes, looking rather ridiculous and... well... bad. Then, after getting his swirly, he would "mock" the guys who did it to him. He would pretend that their efforts were in vain because they were getting his cheapest, worst clothes wet instead of his nice school clothes. It was sad, because as he "laughed" at the jerks doing this to him, you could tell from the cracking of his voice and the shininess of his eyes that he was actually on the verge of crying, but he clung to the "joke" that he "played" on his tormentors as his "clever revenge". He INSISTED that he got one over on those guys, but you could see in his eyes that he was deluding himself. No one else laughed. No one else thought that he won, or that he came out on top. Eventually, I think the jerks felt bad for him, and left him alone.

Thing is sir, as you only read half the thread you missed out on the good parts, in my opinion anyway. This thread first needed some attention, and our group just used everything we know that will create a reaction.
We know people will ridicule on spelling, dumb ideas and so forth. Than after a few days we started changing the thread bit by bit, including responses from our side.
It allowed us to keep the thread alive and up the numbers on the thread counters. We knew we would get insults, and all sorts of negative feedback.
I highlighted the part that you got right, and that is all its about. Getting people to be inventive and actually have some hilarious footage online at the end.
In a way the thread needed to be nourished carefully. If you make sense, you get less response and certainly not the public we wanted in the thread.
(The we thing is about me just being the communicator for our entire group)
Anyways, thank you for your post sir. |

What's the point in a contest that does look like, but not feel like one? No Players' alliance or corp behind it. No clarification on how to evaluate the different suggestions except for a general statement. Too bad. All this does not even sound promissing.
First hand though: The idea of attempting to draw tears from Hulkageddon-pilots may be funny, although this might be a bit over-ambitious. Why: Because it is possible; because "they can".
But on second thought: You know, what's the point? In doubt the gankers shoot everything - just for the sake of a killmail, laughter, lulz, tears, and fun, which I honestly approve. Reason: Because it is possible, because "they can".
Let's throw all T1 and frigs and cruisers with civilian moduels or cheapest crap at one anothers faces - just for fun. 'S part of EvE as well.
Since I wasted plenty of time only by reading the first and last two pages of this thread and writing this word-vomit I sincerely hope that the OP is successful in his contest as a germ surviving in a bottle filled with germicide.
Best wishes, fly reckless! Mad

Hello,
I am the organizer of GrieferGeddon (again).
Last year my event made it to the in-game eve news http://eve.battleclinic.com/news/139695-GrieferGeddon-Offers-Solace-to-Miners.html as well as to the Eve Tribune
Unlike Hillbillageddon, my contest is about ganking the gankers. It's also about remote repair. I wrote a program to track ships in space in order to help track -- and reward -- remote repair.
I have 4.5 billion in prizes, and growing. People trust me to donate as much as 2.7 billion from a single player.
And yet -- something was missing. Last year people told me they wanted a "tears" section -- as if a peaceful industrialst can engage in smack talk with a proffessional and not have it end in a 3-week war dec! I tried making a "no tears" section to accomdate this need but that wasn't too popular.
Hillbillageddon is just what my own contest was missing. The opposite of tears isn't "no tears". The opposite of tears is laughter! So this year -- with permission of course -- I am including Hillbillageddon as my own "no tears" section part of GrieferGeddon 2.0, even though Hillbillageddon is not my contest and was invented entirely independantly of me.

A few thoughts.
1) to make things fun and laughable . . pretend to join a gank fleet and don't shoot. If the calculated the fleet to pop a ship by just a small margin, a few 'spyz' would make the difference.
2) I think the point is NOT about mining during events, NOT about making isk. Both sides claim moral victory in making FUN of the other side regardless of isk. Given that, the Hill Billies are winning since they are laughing and the 'griefers' are trying so desperately to make it seem like it doesn't matter. To the tune of 20 pages.
Anything that makes the game fun for you is a win
if making the fun hard for other folks is what makes it fun for you . . .so be it
oh and the spam in locals about the upcoming events has already started. The bots don't read the spam but then even the Hill Billies and Mechanoid Kryten agree they do deserve all the ganking that can be brought ot bear on them.

Great idea, however you may as well send me the top prize now, I've already won....
I consider the Goons fail attempt to gank my Navy Geddon last night as the cream of all ganker tears...Nothing can top it... Although I do have to question the wisdom of bringing only 2 Tornados? Why did the third one fly off? It wouldn't have helped, but at least you might have gotten me to half armor....

Hate to say it but Remote Repair wont save a Barge, Exhumer or Orca. You can be alpha's in-between your cycle very easily.
And, PvP isnt going to be effective. You may get on their killmail if your very patient and aware but your mining vessel will die in the process.
Best thing to do is ming in fleet, stay alligned, and have a foreward warning system set up with someone watching the gates and stations in the system for possible combat ships designed for this sort of operation. Fight them until turmoil is no more and strike terror into their hearts. |

Wow...this thread.
Dude, I don't do hulkageddon, I don't mine either, I pretty much play MY game solo, but damn, this thread :S
You're not upsetting anyone, you're making no tears, you're only embarrassing yourself. I mean really! It started off a bit dodgy but could have had potential but after reading the rest of your posts I'm cringing so bad. It really is embarrassing.
Events no matter what they are are always cool, but you've pretty much killed your own event before it's even started with your childlike attitude. You've brought me all the way back to primary school and the annoying little brats and their way of arguing. Please, for your own sake, stop posting, hell, if you don't believe me, get one of your corp mates to read this and give you their opinion on your posting style.
It's nothing but an embarrassment to yourself. |

*shrug*
My corp mates and I think it worked like clockwork.
Ya, we would rather have had constructive discussions, but that hope gone out the window after the first goonswarm posts. Which is pretty much what happens to every post if you dont use words like "IWANTS EXPLOSIONS", "Dweeb" and so on. Once you think you have it all, you-áhave actually become-áignorant towards everything else.

Nah m8, The thread did not die, people just ran out of "arguments" as to why this was such a lame idea.
