MBC would reform at the drop of a hat if CFC looked like moving back into the North.
We're not even blue to each other just following not shooting neuts whilst in CFC space (unless they aggress us first *cough* Spectre *cough*).
Also remember that CFC has pissed off pretty much all of these groups individually in their own way and we're not exactly suffering isk losses so even the IWI funding is irrelevant now (although it was definitely a necessary catalyst to get this started).

The 'propaganda' on reddit...is leaked logs from your own alliance chat. We don't even need to make gifs anymore.
e: For your edification:
http://pastebin.com/gj9RHP7u < Goons skymarshals discussing their linemembers. http://pastebin.com/cv88r5VL < SMA alliance chat discussing the loss of leadership.

TBH the amount of deadspace goodies on all the dead supers we killed would probably have cancelled out all our losses as well...so yeah isk positive just from PvP.

Lucas Kell wrote:What were their losses yesterday? So far in April as far as killboards are concerned, TEST have lost more ISK than SMA.
Around 10-15b for the one day afaik, closer to 10b. Easily affordable for any long term eve player let alone an alliance wallet. It's pretty much a certainty that we really don't need the IWI income anymore.
The reason we've lost more than SMA this month is probably because we've been undocking and fighting ~ also we have nearly double the number of members of SMA now.

The reason we've lost more than SMA this month is probably because we've been undocking and fighting ~ also we have nearly double the number of members of SMA now. You're right, we've totally not been undocking at all... We've totally been losing our ships inside stations which is why our losses aren't zero. You say it's a certainty that you don't need IWI income, but then you claim that your losses are low because you're fighting unopposed. That leads me to believe you think that for the remainder of this war you will fight unopposed. Good luck with that.

Those figures were from CCP's data dump: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=6428000
Lots of redditors have made a variety of graphs in this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/Eve/comments/4dty65/ccp_quant_releases_treasure_trove_of_kill_data/
Some of the others I particularly liked:

It's CCP's own data dump. I'd guess pretty accurate.
No idea on the groupings people are using, I just picked the ones that I felt illustrated interesting things - feel free to make your own graphs from it, I'm sure that's why CCP published the data.
I haven't started breaking it down in my own spreadsheets yet, I want to do cumulative losses of MBC vs CFC over time - although from what I've read there's an issue with splitting the CO2 data correctly for that.

Not going to war and being blue are very different things.
Can you imagine if CFC alliances had just had NIP's with each other instead of having their safe ratting space? It's a completely alien concept for you.

Fair point. The cfc will be remembered as powerful, the imperium will be remembered for failed invasions of provi and lowsec and then the fastest collapse in history.

In-game counter to IWI:
Create an in-game competitor.
The richest coalition in the game could easily have subsidised their own gambling website variant - offering massively increased percentages to win for their clients and thus stealing away his playerbase and income*
But they didn't. RIP.
Alternatively, create a Gamblers Anonymous and RP the hell out of it with the Emperor's decree etc....

I think you mean:
"Someone in a blog alleges that a CCP dev said they should be banned in his opinion - but their ban was rescinded by CCP as a whole, after the proof was examined, contrary to that one particular devs opinion"
Needless to say, this is still off topic and very salty sounding in a thread about the future of goons (not the future of IWI).

So what do you think the future holds, since things have changed since the initial posting? As it stands now, there's waaaay too much on the table to start making predictions:
- Citadel and cap changes - Will this make smaller capital fleets viable inspite of the supercap dominance of MBC?
- Are horde actually having fun or is the pressure on O1Y actually hurting their morale and attendance? TMC says yes, reddit says no. Will Imperium manage to actually win a timer when potentially the whole MBC might show up to help horde defend?
- Are MBC splintering and in-fighting? Or are they just having gf's because of a lack of content from Imperium?
- Does MBC actually need the IWI funding to continue? As it looks now, even without the funding there's enough blood in the water and enough strength from even a fraction of the MBC to keep the north secured - but - as it stands, short of bans being reinstated (rightly or wrongly) this doesn't look like happening.
- DJ and the 'old goons' / Imperium morale in general - Will this cause them to keep dropping members/strength? Dotlan says yes - for the moment. Even with the huge amount of allied corps that have folded into GSF they've just started to drop below 17k now...although no-one knows for sure how many of those are actual active players.
Too many questions without concrete answers... but I don't think it looks good for Imperium... I don't think they're going to completely disappear either though.
