These guys do an excellent job ganking endless jump freighters and are generally hilarious, A++. Ten Tron is also a hero Curse pilot.

You told me i was your hero.

I hate you.

This man knows more about internet spaceships than anyone else i have ever met and i believe will have a VERY positive influence on its' direction.

A vote for Widdershins is a vote for justice.

I will vote for you, follow you into the depths of the null and the darkest corners of the wormholes without hesitation.

You have my blaster.

- This man knows his ****, and is an exceptionally amazing influence to me. An outstanding individual as well.

Do you agree with Issler Dainze that CCP should ignore FiS content to make more space pants?

But no, Flying In Space should never be ignored for the sake of spacepants or any other item of spaceclothing.

If only all of the candidates had your sense.

My focus and perspective, summarized:

I think the direction CCP took with the Crucible expansion is fantastic. Fixing extant bugs, peeves with the UI, and mechanics that just make us want to stab our monitors is a crucial process that not only makes existing gameplay better, but is an essential process to enable expanding the game into new areas and making more major changes that let the game continue to mature. I am very interested in seeing this trend continue and finish some of these left-behind features.

I would like to see a growing focus on improvements to the game's UI and its less visible mechanics; while recent changes have been excellent, I'd like to see more specific overview settings, general UI usability improvements, and a push for the re-write of the Crimewatch engine which handles all the aggression flags in the game.

I believe that EVE is built around conflict and risk. EVE is a risk-permeated wonderland, a PVP-saturated extravaganza fraught with risk & reward, and I want to see the future of EVE maintain this excitement and keep PVP in every area of the game. This does not mean we should make it easier for established PVPers to prey on the weak, any more than it should be easier for our carebears to completely avoid all harm in any security space. New Eden is not a tennis court, with strict boundaries of play and frequent breaks: it is a long and bloody beach with an unrelenting drive and no such thing as complete safety. That's what makes it so good: we should protect that however we can.

Along these lines, we should help foster mechanics that will drive small-scale PVP alongside large-scale. Not everyone wants to be involved in epic-scale fleet engagements, and a lot of people's computers/internet cannot even handle the strain. I believe everyone should be able to look to their left, look to their right, and find opportunities for good PVP on either hand wherever they are -- in the future, much as it is today. Hisec PVP is an extremely important and oft-overlooked aspect of this, because only in hisec can an aspiring PVPer learn by getting engagements with a limited number of opponents without CONCORD involvement. If PVP is reduced in hisec, the barrier for entry into PVP is raised dramatically.

If you have any questions about what I think about something or whether I would support a certain proposition, I will do my best to answer all comers.

My job as an internet spaceship politician:

I'm not here to play at being a politician, garner internet fame or in-game notoriety, or do anything but work to improve the game as best I can. I don't pretend to be a great problem-solver, some kind of analytic powerhouse, or a great mediator of disputes. I am here to improve the core of the game, and I hope the rest of CSM7 can be productive adults as well.

I believe I am well-suited among the current candidates to contribute to future discussions, and my greatest honor would be to contribute in a meaningful way to the future of the game and its development.

Hello- Seeing that you believe hisec pvp should be a launching pad for aspiring pvpers, I'd like to know how you envision hisec wardec mechanics should be fixed? And consequently, how hisec pvp should be enhanced for those who are just starting out.

One thousand times yes
