A mate of mine got a 1400mm Howitzer II BPO with time stamp 16:03. First batch has been released, more to come.

Please post the timestamps from when your recieve the offers. It seems that they are only happening after downtime right now?
My mate's 1400mm T2 'print was timestamped 16:03. Exactly the time the servers FIRST started accepting players onto it after the patch.

Blah, and once again the seemingly inverse relationship between RP and probability of getting a T2 bpo shows itself. has ANYbody won a T2 bpo with a "decent" amount of RP? (400k-1m+)?
From what little data I've gathered I can only see the pattern that low level and low quality agents are more likely to drop BPOs than high level or high quality agents.
My friend's 1400mm Howitzer was received from a level 3 agent with negative quality in the field of Mechanical Engineering. This was the second time that agent had payed off for him.
My own corporation's 425mm Railgun was also a product of a low quality (and I'd be damned if it wasn't the same agent) Mechanical Engineering agent. Our two (crappy) ship BPOs were also received from what would otherwise be bad agents.
I know that by large the bulk of MC's BPOs were gained by a few people to such a degree that they had a few agents whom dealt out BPOs several times.
In fact, there are only two discernible patterns and that is that research points do not seem to matter and that some characters are more likely getting BPOs than others.
Might just be paranoia, but it seems there's something wrong with the system in that it takes more than just the pooled research points into consideration. If it HAD taken a random number from the pool, and everyone eligible for participation had had exactly one number per RP, then I think we'd have seen a slightly better spread in BPO payout.
Not that I'd gotten any BPOs, though, since my luck does not run good at all with true random situations.
