Scylus Black Caldari Colonial Defense Ministry Templis CALSF 86	Posted - 2017.02.07 19:12:31 - [1] - Quote Greetings, I am Scylus Black, former CEO of CCDM and former alliance Executor of Templis CALSF (01/2013-10/2016). I represent Low-Sec with a core focus on small to medium scale PvP and Faction Warfare. I have continually served the Caldari State for 4.5 years and have been an active participant in Low-Sec life. I submit my candidacy to the CSM as an effort to bring representation to this part of Eve. Outlined below are some of the major points I will be bringing to the table: - Reaching healthy PvP balance at the solo, small, and medium scale especially with relevance to Low-Sec pilots. - Citadel balance, especially within Faction Warfare space. - Various FW related issues including but not limited to: - Current warzone control method and system flipping mechanics are long due for a second look. - Tendency for FW members to turn pirate (negative security status) due to current Plex mechanics. I believe the points above and partnering with the others leaders in CSMXII are mutually inclusive. Faction Warfare is often a gateway to other areas in our beloved game. As that improves, so does the skillset of those going elsewhere. PVP attracted me years ago for the engagements. Faction Warfare attracted me for the flexibility to login and PVP. I merely needed to undock. Working with a cohesive team with a Faction Warfare goal only improved that enjoyment. Aside from the introduction of Citidels there has not been a major revamping or evolution that affected Faction Warfare in over 3 years. I look to create awareness around the importance of the Faction Warfare mechanic and how it adds value to those who are PVP driven as well as how it compliments the Low-Sec Lifestyle. We attract many groups, pirates included, into Low-Sec to compete with us in PVP. You can see the content in our numerous videos. We want to improve on that and the Faction Warfare portion while evolving the new mechanics. I am a leader IRL (Chief Operating Officer). I bring to the table a level of expertise characterized by partnership and a co-creative relationship to get the job done. I can be reached in-game and Slack (Scylus Black) I am available for interviews and vetting of my candidacy. I will be participating in Podcasts and other mediums to give you all an opportunity to meet me. I look forward to serving the entire community and seeing the next evolution of our game!

Stalence Caldari Colonial Defense Ministry Templis CALSF 69	Posted - 2017.02.07 19:38:52 - [2] - Quote I've known Scylus for several years now. Over the years I've witnessed Scylus' unwavering passion for the game and dedication to the pilots within our organization and militia at large. While hailing from Caldari Militia, I know that Scylus is a professional and will take an unbiased approach to low security space and its mechanics. His motivation is to simply ensure that future mechanics, features and balance passes by CCP help or do not harm the ecosystem within low sec for PVP and PVE alike. I also believe that his high levels of dedication and passion for the game will translate well to participation in the CSM should he be elected. He won't take the commitment lightly. It's time that pilots living, missioning, exploring, and fighting within Low Security space get the representation they deserve on the the Council of Stellar Management and I believe Scylus Black would serve as an excellent council member.

Well spoken. I too, can attest for Scylus' leadership and conviction having worked directly under him. He is a man of his word and will certainly look out for the greater good should he be chosen for the CSM. It's time for Low-Sec and especially FW to have a voice on this panel. Anybody wishing to contact Scylus may also reach me via in-game mail or message and I will be sure to pass it along to him via direct channels. CFO & HR Director for Caldari Colonial Defense Ministry
helios9k1 Caldari Colonial Defense Ministry Templis CALSF 1	Posted - 2017.02.08 19:58:59 - [4] - Quote I was immediately impressed with Scylus' ability to lead and keep members active and keep all involved egos in check. He's been a great leader in EVE and a great help with RL issues involving his pilots he's become aware of.
Marco Mangeiri Caldari Colonial Defense Ministry Templis CALSF 1	Posted - 2017.02.08 20:04:11 - [5] - Quote Scylus has been a major fixture in Black Rise for years and I believe that he is a clear cut choice to Represent FW, low sec PvP. Im confident that with Scylus will have nothing but positive contributions to the improvement of low sec PvP and FW alike.
Charlotte de'Berry Caldari Colonial Defense Ministry Templis CALSF 9	Posted - 2017.02.08 21:28:37 - [6] - Quote ItGÇÖs my absolute pleasure to recommend Scylus Black for CSM with the Eve Online Community. I have been one of Scylus' pilots from the time I was a FW new-bro. I can also safely say he is being humble in his description of his skills sets. I thoroughly enjoy my time working with Scylus, and came to know him as a truly valuable asset to Templis as a whole and myself. He is honest, dependable, and incredibly hard-working in all aspects of Eve. Beyond that, he is an impressive leader who is always aiming to improve all of us. His knowledge of Eve and expertise in Factional Warfare is a huge advantage to our entire Alliance. He put this skillset to work in order to improve CCDM, Templis and CalMil as a whole....often funding projects himself. Along with his undeniable talent, Scylus has always been an absolute joy to work with. He is a true team player, and always manages to foster positive discussions and bring the best out of other pilots both in FW and in the surrounding area. Without a doubt, I confidently recommend Scylus to join your CSM team. As a dedicated and knowledgeable player and an all-around great person, I know that he will be a beneficial addition to your CSM system and all Eve players. Please feel free to contact me in-game directly or via the Gate's email system should you like to discuss ScylusGÇÖ qualifications and experience further. IGÇÖd be happy and proud to expand on my recommendation. Best wishes, Charlotte "the reverend' de'Berry CCDM Director of Special Operations & Templis Training Academy Instructor.
Paul Ares Crimson Serpent Syndicate Heiian Conglomerate 3	Posted - 2017.02.08 23:57:40 - [7] - Quote In what has been close to 3 years now that I've been in FW, Scylus has demonstrated himself to be among the prominent and decisive leaders within CalMil. Even from outside of his alliance, his actions as a leader in the CalMil Coalition have proven to me that he is among the best players out there who could adequately represent those of us in Faction Warfare. He has my vote. Sua Sponte Anyone who thinks being a "good loser" is a virtue is probably a f***ing loser.
Ichinumi Tsukaya Caldari Colonial Defense Ministry Templis CALSF 30	Posted - 2017.02.09 09:51:56 - [8] - Quote Scylus is clearly the person who can best push for changes that would benefit the whole faction war community.
Prometheus Hinken Tr0pa de elite. Northern Coalition. 16	Posted - 2017.02.10 08:08:54 - [9] - Quote Scylus, Since you are focused more on Faction Warfare gameplay and we have two pirate lowsec candidates right now, I want to focus asking some questions that involve just faction warfare. You already mentioned the Citadel problem which I believe CCP themselves stated they overlooked (I think I read that somewhere in CSM minutes?), so I won't go there. Instead I want to focus on the more PvE side of Faction Warfare, and a major ISK sink that is the LP store and LP payout. Do you feel right now that the LP store is in a good place? Are there any buffs or nerfs to the store itself that you feel are needed? Lastly, what is your position on a militia receiving 50% payout while in Tier 1?
Scylus Black Caldari Colonial Defense Ministry Templis CALSF 99	Posted - 2017.02.11 22:34:53 - [10] - Quote Prometheus, Thank you for posting this. You brought up PvE, LP Stores and Tier Penalties. So I'll comment on those. I do want to circle back to the Low Sec Pirate piece as I believe our platform will support those candidates also. PvE is fine if you are in Tier 2. Obviously Tier 1 can create some stress however it should be a motivating factor to partner with the rest of the militia to get out of Tier 1. The upgrade system does not promote this. If the Tiers were driven by system control it would incentivize the militia to take systems vs. just upgrading the hub. It would also improve the content of fights and demand improved skill sets from the pilots just to compete. The LP store needs to have inventory catered to FW and Low Sec. Currently it has everything found in a High Sec store. Granted FW LP is gained quicker than High Sec LP however there is nothing special about the FW Store. If there were items exclusive to it this could attract pilots to get involved in Low Sec. Even revisiting the tags and how they are applied to goods in the store. Tier 1 should be 100% payout with bonuses at higher Tiers. It's not an indictment on a militia for being in Tier 1 when the mechanic needs to be improved to evolve with the rest of the game. If the goal is to attract more talent, PVPers and content then the systems in place should compliment that goal. As for my two pirate colleagues, Faction Warfare is often used as a "stepping stone" for piracy and other aspects of the game. The small print is if you are in FW long enough your sec status will be negative. We all want content. We love PVP. So any improvement in Low Sec that supports that goal is worth discussing IMHO.

Prometheus Hinken Tr0pa de elite. Northern Coalition. 17	Posted - 2017.02.11 23:53:56 - [11] - Quote Scylus Thanks! Lastly, what are some ways you feel you can connect to lowsec players and convey their thoughts, feelings, and opinions to CCP?
Super Chair Caldari Colonial Defense Ministry Templis CALSF 721	Posted - 2017.02.12 05:04:18 - [12] - Quote Been in and out of templis over the years. Scylus has been a great leader throughout it all with a level head (which was rare for caldari militia). Even when the going got tough against impossible odds (such as when galmil kicked everyone out of the warzone on multiple occasions), Scylus worked to overcome those odds. Many leadership types in caldari militia over my 7 year tenure as a blackrise/FW resident have simply quit, made excuses or even try to pass the blame to others. Instead of this behavior, scylus asks "how can we do better?" and empowers everyone to strive towards doing just that. Even when almost all caldari corps/alliances have left templis remained due to scylus's leadership (lowsec for life!), which is why templis is one of the longest standing caldari FW alliances. Never have I witnessesd or even heard of Scylus behaving in an unprofessional manner, even behind closed doors. All of this is a strong indication of his good character. You won't find a more professional, experienced, level headed lowsec candidate capable of hearing all sides to a discussion and making informed, balanced decisions. Scylus would be an extremely valuable asset to the CSM. I fully endorse this candidate.
Idame Isqua Caldari Colonial Defense Ministry Templis CALSF 35	Posted - 2017.02.12 08:27:39 - [13] - Quote Scylus has the steady but light touch. Evidenced by him steering Templis CALSF (CALSF) and Caldari Colonial Defence Ministry (CCDM) through rough waters. Though a complete rebuild, its evolution over time which has resulted in Caldari militias longest lasting force. Resulting in the lowsec apex force that is Templis CALSF today. He will have value with his unique input gained from the peaks and troughs of militia and lowsec life. A vote for Scylus is the surest bet one can make.

Roxie Orvis Space Gladiators Templis CALSF 0	Posted - 2017.02.12 22:22:56 - [15] - Quote I've only been in Templis for about 2 years so I haven't known Scylus as long as others but I can attest to his near unnatural ability to speak to AND for his pilots. Scylus is quite literally a shining beacon in the darkness of space - he gives his undivided attention to the topic at hand, offers advice when asked, and goes above and beyond to help those around him. His diplomatic prowess is second to none and he is always courteous. As an active participant in FW for many years and under many hats, he has seen what works, what doesn't, and what would improve FW and low-sec as a whole. I proudly endorse him.
Andre Vauban Aideron Robotics 470	Posted - 2017.02.13 00:30:36 - [16] - Quote Glad to see you running. I've fought Scylus for years and would love to see you on CSM even though you are a dirty squid. .
Baltar Mengos The Atlantis Group 0	Posted - 2017.02.15 02:40:24 - [17] - Quote Quote: LetGÇÖs bleach ourselves off with a true FW candidate in the shape of Scylus Black. HeGÇÖs one of the most proeminent leaders of FW and a member of Templis CALSF, standing for lowsec, Faction Warfare and its accompanying small gang and solo elements. He mentions specifically that he submits his candidacy as an effort to represent the virtually never-represented Faction Warfare element. A strong point is made with him saying that Faction Warfare and lowsec can be a GÇÿgatewayGÇÖ of transition to other types of gameplay or areas of the game in which people can activate, and as such deserves a good deal of care. There are a LOT of mechanics intertwined with FW that really only the people that do FW can know even exists, let alone how they interact and function. The other fact that there are almost no strict FW-focused candidates around should make him a solid vote on your voting slip, even if you donGÇÖt play in FW, for a balanced CSM. Caught this review at Crossing Zebras (https://crossingzebras.com/csm-candidates-roundup-6-12-february-roundup/) and I couldn't agree more. I'm not actively engaged in faction warfare fighting but I spend a lot of my time stocking markets and handling logistics for those groups (including Templis / Scylus' group) and I'll concur that Scylus is a standup guy and that a healthy low sec PVP environment is also beneficial for the industrialists, marketeers and haulers of low sec that help make epic fights and system sieges happen.
Dog's Bow Lux Kill Them With Kindness Templis CALSF 0	Posted - 2017.02.15 18:30:53 - [18] - Quote Faction Warfare (FW) space is one of the best arenas where older and newer players go to learn and participate in solo and small gang pvp. Not only those who are actual members of the militias but many many other players (neuts) and corps who visit regularly. I know so many players who have alts in FW space, it is very active and (imo) one of the most fun aspects of eve online. I'm surprised that there as never been a CCP FW representative and it's time there was one. FW is over due at least a few tweaks, or perhaps even a complete overhaul of it's mechanics particularly with regard to the impact of the introduction of citadels and also pilot sec status problems. A Faction Warfare representative in the council will be critical to this. I can think of no better candidate than Scylus Black, who has the knowledge and commitment to represent FW pilots from the player perspective effectively. He is widely respected and supported across all the Faction Militias.

Gorski commented that it would have been nice to have a Lowsec and Faction Warfare session, with CCP Logibro replying that that session in particular was not put on the schedule as the development team is unable to commit to anything in the shorter term and Team Five-0 were already having a large number of meetings.

With TEMPLIS running solidly in the warzone under his command, I think he is the clear choice to represent the lowsec space. He has been in the area for a long time and understands the dynamic changes that the global changes have made to our sectors. +1 for Scylus.

Best, Scylus Hello and thanks for the reply, I'm not a FW player and my inquiry actually pertains to all players, especially FW members who leave the Militia and as a consequence of their time served can not access content available in unfriendly Empire space. Now don't get me wrong, I think Faction standings should have an impact on game play, especially since Eve Online is based on having a balance in 'Risk vs Reward' and 'Actions vs Consequences'. That's what makes this game great. In the past characters were accountable for their actions, now most everything is being dumbed down and turned into easy mode for the instant gratification crowd. That's something I don't want to see happen to Faction standings. Currently the in-game aspects of Faction standings : Positive Faction standings are the only way to access Cosmos Agents (one time access). Positive Faction and Corporation standings are needed to access Research Agents. All other Agents only require minimal amount of Faction standing for access (-2.00 or higher standing). High Faction standings reduce Market Broker fees and Reprocessing fees in NPC stations. At -5.00 or lower Faction standing, Empire NPC's will attack when in their space. In my opinion CCP made a big mistake when they removed the need to have positive Faction standings to anchor POS in high sec space. Having that requirement made Faction standings more meaningful instead of just being a way to access Agents or to get lower Broker fees. Now I would love to see more content pertaining to positive Faction standings be added to the game. However at this time my inquiry is based on the negative effects of Faction standings to the playerbase. Since it takes time for players to ruin their Faction standings then it should also take some time to repair those standings. Unfortunately that info is basically nonexistent in-game when it should actually be readily available and easily understood by players. I created and shared the 'Faction Standing Repair Plan' with the playerbase on the forums back in 2010. Over the past 7 years it has helped countless amount of players to rectify what seemed like an unsolvable issue. In my opinion players need more options available to repair negative Faction standings then what I've listed in that guide. In fact most of those Event Agents can only be accessed once in the characters life. There's a lot of players in-game who don't read the forums and don't know that guide exists. They've basically accepted the fact they're cut off from engaging in available content due to negative Faction standings. Repairing negative standings is a big task even for experienced players who are familiar with 'The Plan'. New players who haven't learned the game yet can easily mess up their Faction standings without even knowing it right from the start, resulting in no access to half of Empire space. Anyway, after 7 years of helping players in the forums to repair negative Faction standings, I just wanted to provide some feedback through the CSM for CCP to consider. I believe these options would definitely help all players in-game. Faction standing repair process be implemented in-game and be very intuitive, not obscure (tutorial perhaps). Changes to Faction standings will notify players with on screen pop up message (option to deactivate). Actions that would cause negative Faction standing trigger on screen pop up warning (option to deactivate). All Anti-Empire mission briefings have a warning informing players those missions will incur negative Faction standings. Implement Tags for Empire Standings in-game based on similar game mechanics as Tags for Security. Add NPC Agents to in-game Agent Finder for Faction standing repair (similar to proposal in my forum signature). Once again good luck with the upcoming election.

Cearain Plus 10 NV It Burns When I'm PvPing 1501	Posted - 2017.03.07 15:34:48 - [44] - Quote It has always been the case that you win sov most efficiently by running away from fights. This has been disheartening to many players who have been in faction war and I believe is the main reason why the vast majority of eve players think fw is a joke. You will see how people gain sov most effectively by looking those who get the most vp (ie, captured the most plexes) for the week or day and then look at how they fit their ships. This website allows you to see who gained the most vp per day or week: https://api.eveonline.com/eve/FacWarTopStats.xml.aspx Here are the top 3 vp gainers for the week: 1) Ten TenTim 2) Plex Peasant 3)Renka Ormand Take a look at their killboards I can't post the killboards on the forums. The last player elected fw guy, Hans, pushed for measures to change this. Namely 2 measures. Rollbacks on timers when people run from a plex and a form of real time intel so we know where plexes are being taken. CCP promised to do these things years ago but never did. 1) what is your personal position on rollbacks and real time intel? 2) regardless of your position will you at least ask ccp what happened? (Why did they promise this and then not deliver?) And ask if they still intend to keep their promise and if not why? Make faction war occupancy pvp instead of pve https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=53815&#post53815

This is the core of my candidacy. I have no illusions about the challenges ahead. My role, as I see it, is to bring transparency and accountability to the position. Which means over communicating with the community and partnering with CCP and my CSM colleagues to advance our change requests. FW can't remain on the cutting room floor. As a dedicated FW / Low Sec representative that would not happen with me on the CSM team. Ashterothi - Endorsting Me: 2nd! He sums up why I am the FW / Low Sec candidate. If you have not heard my interview with him, the first 7 minutes of this feedback from him will shed some light. We need to be a united front to get to the table. I look forward to serving you.

Yes very excited about all of this. If the teams feel that I can be the voice this will work. It's not about being an expert in an EVE Mechanic. Its about being an expert in relationships and having integrity. Something I do and have everyday. We can be heard with me at the CSM table.

Cochise Chiricahua The Scope Gallente Federation 1	Posted - 2017.03.08 19:49:53 - [47] - Quote 07 Candidate! First, thank you for your time and effort (both present and future) in representing the capsuleers of New Eden! TheyGÇÖre much appreciated. IGÇÖm preparing to cast my vote in the CSM12 elections. After reading the information you submitted, though, I still have a question. By way of background, I started in Eve as a hauler, moving freight in T1 industrials and gradually working my way up in both ships and cargo. However, I repeatedly found my progress impeded by gankers who would destroy my ship and steal my cargo. In low- and null-sec space, thatGÇÖs to be expected. You place your bet and take your chances. In high-sec space, however, this is very frustrating. Why have high-sec space at all then? This frustration drove me into anti-ganking, and IGÇÖve been a proud member of Thomas en Chasteaux's High-Sec Militia for several months now. So, my question. Where do you stand on high-sec ganking? IGÇÖll concede that ganking is a legitimate style of game play, as CCP has ruled. But I also feel that it should be difficult and dangerous (for the ganker) in the 30% of New Eden designated as high-sec space. In particular, IGÇÖd like to see CCP tweak the game mechanics so that the criminal flag generated by looting a ganked freighter in high-sec space follows all players who handle that loot, and otherwise make looting more realistic. (Thomas en Chasteaux's ideas, not mine.) As a member of the CSM, would you present such an idea to CCP? Would you push for its adoption? What other game changes might you consider to make high-sec ganking more difficult and less profitable? Regards, Cochise Chiricahua.

To answer your question, I agree with the change you proposed however I would not be presenting this to CCP. Here's why and how I could help a more HighSec equipped candidate present it. 1. My platform is laser focused on Low Sec, PVP and Faction Warfare. So I need to ensure I am not distracted by all the other game mechanics that need to be tweaked. For us in Low Sec / Faction Warfare we have a real opportunity to be heard and I need to ensure all the factions have that voice with me. It's all about integrity. 2. However I am equipped to help one of the other CSM candidates that are focused on High Sec. This is done by partnering with my CSM colleagues and helping them advance their agenda at the CCP table. By being a voice of reason and supporting their argument as a valid change that would help High Sec which we all know is the gateway for Low and Null. It would behoove me to support that. I hope that sheds light on how I can be of value and remain integral to the goals I am running for. o7!
