Originally by: Despil This idea sounds just great! Worth trying. And somehow it reminded me this /not really eve-related but anyway...
Love that video, and we don't exchange rifters and hug each other after, but it can feel a bit like that

Originally by: Calprimus Do you guys pod each other as well?
As we don't want to create any rules to the combat pod killing is allowed, we have said that we'd rather people didn't do it but if they do so be it.

Edited by: Plave Okice on 27/01/2008 10:35:43 The T1 frigs and cruisers are mainly being used because people can throw away so many of them.
We don't actually have many noobs though, many are alts of experienced players, and there's plenty of us with 40 mill + sp involved.
Any donations can come to me, then Tron (Blue CEO) and I can use them for bounties, supplies etc. We're looking to talk to an industrial corp about making some large purchases to stock up for everyone so it all helps.
EDIT - We're also going to need someone with good corp management skills to increase our allowed members, currently we can have 150 but that doesn't look like it will last long at this rate.

Originally by: Vivitari Now the question is, did you get this idea from the month/2month long Red vrs Blue EVE-Radio held about 3/4 months ago?
The idea has been going around since way before that, we discussed it about a year ago and I'd be amazed if others didn't discuss it before then, it was openly talked about on the forums following the Privateer nerf about May last year too.
Tron recently brought the idea for discussion again on SHC as he says and we got to thinking, why the hell not. It seems following less than 2 weeks later, 130 members and approaching 500 ships destroyed people are enjoying it.

My new favorite Dev 
And we're not looking for RvB to be static, we have plans to expand, especially in areas of operation as soon as the membership warrants it, very soon at this rate.

We were decced by a 3rd corp in our first week and had good fun (when red and blue are attacked they join together as purple) 
Our 2nd week ended with a bang, much fighting last night, around 150 kills it looks like from a quick look at the boards.
So now we begin our 3rd week, we're bringing forward some of our plans and looking to continue growth.
Also someone messaged me kindly offering to use their character to increase number of players we can hold, but I deleted their evemail (d'oh), if you read this would you message me again please.

Originally by: Grimm Myn lol, awesome idea to be honest.
I know no real rules exist but it might be an idea to limit the SP at some point in time, i mean some nber SP millionaire could come in with 1 ship and wipe out the field, no?
Count my alt in, if i ever get there 
This doesn't happen, there are many of us with 40/50 million SP, if we undock in pimped out big ships and there aren't many enemies online then they don't fight us, if they're plenty of enemies online you might as well just name your ship "Primary".
Also we keep the sides balances in terms of number of members and SP as best we can, so one side will never dominate the other, the idea is to keep as even fights as possible.

Originally by: ChrisFish Have you guys come up with some sort of objective system or is it just free for all in a few systems?
For example, I was thinking of something along the lines of having each faction pick a .5 system near Hek and create a few safe spots. Then anchor a set number of cans of a certain size (ie Giant secure = station each side gets 3)..blah blah...Or some type of Capture the Flag type.
People could just start anchoring cans and screw it up, but I was curious if you guys had thought of something like that.
Yes, and we've discounted it, we don't want tournament, ctf or arena PvP, we want normal Eve war.
Originally by: Bob Stuart Blue has a small advantage, in that using default colours on overview, reds would show up as reds, although blues would appear as greens. Whereas, for the reds, blues would appear as reds, although reds would also appear as greens.
I.e. If you're blue, reds are reds, and blues are greens. If you're red, blues are reds, and reds are greens.
I reversed my overview colours, my corp mates show red and I shoot blinky blues

Purple have existed for years, it was the civil war within Purple that has created the Red Versus Blue conflict.
However, it times of dire need Purple Operations are still carried out.

Originally by: Kylar Renpurs What if T2 frigates are your idea of low cost? :)
Then fly them, cheapest stuff I fly are T2 frigs, more and more people now in Recons, BS, HACs etc
They can still die to swarms of rifters

Re used 2005 alt if he has worthy skills.
Join red if you want, member count is 121-120 to blue so it makes little difference unless the numbers are way out.

It's Eve as Eve was intended.
Podding is allowed, although let's be honest, getting podded in high sec is unlucky if you know how to avoid it.

Desperate for help increasing corp sizes, need one or two chars who can be online early evening tonight in Metropolis who can increase sizes from 150 members each, ideally to 500+ but any increase helps for now.

Red can start to accept more members in about 2 hours time, Blues that time tommorrow.
Only 50 more for each corp though, if anyone knows anyone who can raise our corp limits to 500+ please get them to contact me, happy to pay.

Originally by: demonfurbie do you need some isk donated for office rent if so who do i send it too
We're not desperate for ISK, but we do use donations.
We run our own internal bounty system for the war, the two corp CEO's can place bounties on opposing members, or indeed on an opposing members certain ship, or simple rewards for x amount of kills etc
We're hoping to expand this much more and any donations (which can come to me) would be much appreciated.

I have contacted Hardin, I think we're a little too far away from him to be worth a journey.
We did have some good fun last night, seems Psycho is very excited about it. 
Red have been decced by a small corp and both Red and Blue have been decced by a local alliance of 80 or so. which means Red are having 4 way fights and Blue 3 way.
The gang of 20 or so I led last night was interesting, quite a mix of ships, plenty of BS, recons and others, also containing a CNR and a Velator, a first for me. 
For those who think this is just frig fights, there's all sorts of ships involved, virtually every combat non capital ship in Eve has been killed so far including commands, heavy dictors, recons etc

Update on corp limits
Both corps should be able to hold 1300 members by Saturday afternoon game time.
Red have been upped slightly and have around 40 spaces, Blue will have 50 extra spaces at some point tonight.
We turned away well over 50 people last night in the few hours I was on, but by this weekend, room for all!

Originally by: Cassandra Wolf Because Eve has no Join screen or Autobalance like for example TF2 (comes to mind with red vs blue) you should try to post the total and active players every once in a while :)
Just ask in redversusblue channel and you'll be directed to which corp to join.
Corps joining one of the alliances must talk to me first anyway.

We have one kb for each side, we don't have any link to post kills anywhere else.
If people post kills elsewhere it's up to them, I don't see how it matters or makes any sort of difference to anything.
A kill in RvB is as real as any other kill on TQ.
