Shameless Avenger	Posted - 2006.12.17 01:53:00 - [1] I trained the skills, I'm making some research with the agent and earning the research points. Now what? Will I receive an email for the lotery? Do I have to visit my agent daily or what? Sory for the noobiness in the research field, not really my favorite....:(

Nefertari Amarr 4S Corporation Morsus Mihi	Posted - 2006.12.17 02:02:00 - [3] Edited by: Nefertari on 17/12/2006 02:02:00 you wayt, 1 day 1 week, 1 month, 1 year, 1 life time. Who knows. Some day you might get a mail from the agent about a bpo, or might not. It is lika a lottery ticket.
Vasiliyan PAX Interstellar Services Anarchy Empire	Posted - 2006.12.17 02:06:00 - [4] Wait, checking your journal and mailbox every few days. You can get more RP by doing stuff for the agent, but it's not essential; they accumulate over time anyway.

Sory for the noobiness in the research field, not really my favorite....:( Sorry to break it to you dude, but Charles Manson has a better chance of becoming an Arch Bishop in the Angelican Church than you winning a T2 BPO. It's all a shell game, because those with tons of research points, such as many of the original T2 BPO winners, will have the greatest chance of getting the new T2 BPOs. You could think of the T2 lottery as Professional Wrestling; in other words, it's a sham!

If I whine without trying, it wouldn't make sense.
Haffrage Revelations Inc. Shroud Of Darkness	Posted - 2006.12.17 02:54:00 - [7] Yeah, but you... Er... Well god damn, that's a flawless logic. -----

Driven Caldari Mass Produced Venturi Starea	Posted - 2006.12.17 04:33:00 - [9] The best strategy now that you have rsearch points is to hold your breath until they award you a tech 2 bpo. trust me. seriously. it works. I BUY TECH II AMMO BPOs
Gamer4liff Caldari Metalworks THE INTERSTELLAR FOUNDRY	Posted - 2006.12.17 04:37:00 - [10] Edited by: Gamer4liff on 17/12/2006 04:39:07 You wait a T2 BPO and slowly go stark raving mad with jealousy and rage as everybody around you seems to be winning but you. (T2 lottery, serious business).
Letouk Mernel	Posted - 2006.12.17 05:18:00 - [11] Wouldn't it be just delicious if one day CCP decides, with great fanfare, to seed BPO's again, but then when they do they discover that no one's in the lottery anymore, cause we all got sick of it and abandoned the agents? What? 0 RP?
Sir Bart Vendetta Underground Rule of Three	Posted - 2006.12.17 06:52:00 - [12] Edited by: Sir Bart on 17/12/2006 06:54:12 Currently the best strategy for getting a t2 bpo is to make friends with someone who has one, join their corp, be an awsome corp member, become a director and then rob them blind. Maybe you won't get a t2 bpo in your theft but you might get enough stuff that you can sell it and buy the bpo. The honest way of getting one would be to run 4 accounts and mine mercoxite till you can buy one. Lotto is a pipe dream. -Bart P.S. Betraying someone like this is likely going to really demoralize them and cause them to quit playing and have less trust in poeple. Takes a certain kinda person to do it, I never could. Its on the same level as being a corp spy and some people can live with that so...
EPSILON DELTA	Posted - 2006.12.17 08:57:00 - [13] Edited by: EPSILON DELTA on 17/12/2006 08:57:40 Its not all that bad to never win once you realize most t2 BPOs are as profitable as running 1 lv4 mission every day, and that's one of the OK ones. Of course you may always get high demand ones, but a half of BPOs in the lottery baskets are useless ones like ammo and other low demand modules. so... yes... convince yourself of that after not getting any bpo with 30k rp.

Yes, but I'd give your left arm for a Scorch M or Conflagration M bpo. The hell with profit, I need more crystals for my slaves to polish. "If God be for us, whom can be against us?"
Vasiliyan PAX Interstellar Services Anarchy Empire	Posted - 2006.12.17 19:08:00 - [15] It's a lottery. Why is that so objectionable? I don't see hordes of people demanding that the BIG lottery be shut down as it's unfair...

The people who get BPOs used all their RPs on that agent to get the BPO... so they actually have less. -[23] Member- Listen to EVE-Trance Radio! (Winamp required)
Ranger 1 Amarr Shiva Morsus Mihi	Posted - 2006.12.17 19:29:00 - [17] Indeed. You burn up all of your RP's to get a BPO. Don't you just hate it when with a few words someone destroys a perfectly good conspiracy theory.
whoflungdung Gallente Havoc Inc	Posted - 2006.12.18 00:44:00 - [18] I have 31,623 SP with my Agent. Good eh? Good until the day he says "I got a Cap Recharger II BPO for you , come get it" And me now being -9.5 or so cant go get it cos its in noobville!
Soporo	Posted - 2006.12.18 00:59:00 - [19] Currently the best strategy for getting a t2 bpo is to get insanely lucky, yes? Then you need to go to a Fanfest and defend your BPO from all new patch ships. Alternately you can get a tip from "someone" to buy certain BPOs on Market no matter the cost, then have them Magically upgraded in a patch a day later from Uber ISK machine to an I WIN EVE ISK Machine.

Reading FTW! Quote: because those with tons of research points, such as many of the original T2 BPO winners, will have the greatest chance of getting the new T2 BPOs. read that again... slowly... "[...]because those with tons of research points, such as many of the original T2 BPO winers[...]" You see, a magical thing can happen, even if you do win the lottery, you can actually go back and earn RP again with the agent. (Astounding I know, but wait! there's more!) Now amazing as it may seem, an agent that has already provided a BPO can actually provide another BPO if a player wins again! (Now keep reading, this is where it gets really good!) A player that has hit on the lottery likely has accumulated a lot of RP, and by this point many people have accumulated thousands upon thousands of RP, including those that have already won big before.
