for those of you who have seen/read the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy, well im attempting to write one for eve. so far i have 29 entries in three major categories: people, places, everything else. entries so far:
everything else: blob, gate camp, goon swarm, planets,skills,PVP,PVE,ratting
people: basically the four major races and links to the EVE website, the descriptions of the ships, repair systems, and eventually will have entries on the individual sub races... but that ones a little hard to come up with. also have a category in there called everyone else: agents, carebears, BoB, CONCORD, jove, miners(astroid miners, ice miners, macro miners),pirates, traders.
places: asteroid belts, EVE gate, high sec space, low sec space, Jita, minmatar channel, rens, map of the universe, stain (though the stain entry could use some work).
what im trying to do is to remail aloof while not having a bias towards any of the entries. so that way when you read them it doesnt seem..well.. bias. this isnt a newspaper its just something to have around and have fun with. if you want to add some entries EVE mail me or post on here, ill have a look at it and see what i can do. hell at this point ill take almost anything. however it doesnt have to be bust out loud funny or super serious, though there are some serious entries. you can either make it or i can, or ill edit it or ykno ill have a few of the editors (yes i have editors ) look at it ;).
happy flying!

Only in the Eve universe, the answer is not 42, its SoonÖ. :)

In the beginning, EVE was created. This made a lot of people angry, and has been widely regarded as a bad idea.

you should get people to write articles on random stuff and pay for them by either selling PDF's or access to a website with the guide on it, set up an alt corp to fund and administrate it, drop me an eve mail, I'd love to help with this one, just the kind of crazy thing I'm into.

"The Goon is a creature that hails from the planet of Fofofo, and will eat anything. If you are to encounter a Goon, the Guide tells you that it's impossible to slay, so you should wrap a towel around your head. This creature is so mind-bogglingly stupid that it assumes that if you can't see it, then it can't see you."

Well, we had an Isk problem, so we solved that by adding more drones. The only problem now is it takes 3 freighter loads of minerals to buy a peanut.

"...Destroy the ship immediately."
"What about Shraek?'
"Well," said Goon brightly, "Shraek's just this guy, you know?"

"Deteis are amongst the most unpleasant bloodlines in the galaxy. Not actually evil, but bad-tempered, bureaucratic, vicious and callous. They wouldn't even lift a finger to save their own CEO from the ravenous BoBblatter beast of Traal, without orders signed in triplicate, sent back, lost, found, subjected to enquiry, lost again and finally shipped off to the minmatar republic by mistake and recycled as ship components.
The best way to get a drink out of a Deteis is to stick your fingers down his throat, and the best way to annoy him is to feed his CEO to the ravenous BoBblatter Beast of Traal." ***

Most Deteis would see this a way to gain promotion and would be so busy trying to get to the top of the greasy pole they would happily feed their family to the beast if it meant they could rise in the ranks.
Entry for Jita: Jita has become a major hub for all lifeforms, pleasant and not so pleasant to congregate. In fact it is so crowded that trying to move your arm will immediately result in hundreds of people getting concussion as you hit them. For some reason people think Jita is the place to be. It is not. When you are tired of life visit Jita - you will be ready to die happy then knowing that life can be far worse than anything else you can imagine.

don't forget to mention a Templar, an Amarr fighter. It is a combat drone used by carriers. also a Firbolg, a Gallente fighter a combat drone used by carriers deserves its place in your guide.

Edited by: Mithfindel on 11/07/2007 08:13:01 EVE-History and EVE-Chatsubo wikis might be useful, too, if you want to find (brief) descriptions of more or less known personalities.
http://wiki.eve-chatsubo.com/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page - It reads Don't Panic! there, too!
http://eve-history.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
EDIT: To avoid double-post, I think they tried several in Elite, but they kept getting random-generated profane planet names. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elite_(computer_game)#Gameplay)

Well, there IS a Vogon in us all. Which mean trying to get a lift would prove difficult. TBH. I think the chances to find yourself floating in space is larger...
