Please answer the following questions:
1) Have you been part of an Eve Event? 2) What was it and how long ago did it take place? 3) How did you hear about it? 4) What was the reward? 5) Was The Scope forum used to advertise the Event?
I wouldn't mind taking part in an Event but, unless I'm being thick, I can never find where they occur despite studying the related News articles closely.

*Bohr wants more EvE events 
Joined the lag fest in NC yesterday to protect the jovian emissary. Was fun to be there despite nothing really taking place.

1- Nope (despite a couple of tries) 2- The couple of tries were a couple of months ago. Something with an ambassador visiting the Ammatar consulate, and the end of the Amarr championship. And of course I have been to Valmu a couple of times. 3- On the site. 4- n.a. 5- In one case, yup (although that was not really an event, of course)

Been part of the "Rogue jovian Ouria" - event. And the awards for the Amarr championship (Couldn't take part of the championship itself due to RL).
I would really like to be part of some of the aurora events in the scope forum, but as I only visit empire sometimes to sell stuff, I don't think it will ever happen.

Edited by: Anna K on 08/05/2004 11:42:13 1) Have you been part of an Eve Event? : Yes 2) What was it and how long ago did it take place? : escort missions for different corps, over the last 2-3 weeks 3) How did you hear about it? : friends / eve chat (ingame channel) 4) What was the reward? : sometimes nothing at all, sometimes getting good loot or being paid by the aurora guys, also, can we say it was a reward to get Hardin from PIE convo me to know how the hell I got so many times in the scope news ? 5) Was The Scope forum used to advertise the Event? Yes. my first event my first time in the news 2nd 3rd
And no, I don't know anyone in CCP or aurora, it was just "luck" : having my corpmates from star control, Omegris and Tyrrax, giving me the information or camping the eve chat in the right moment, and of course, being able to get there in time, as events often happen far from the highways, in 0.1 to 0.4 space.

1) yes, Trice 2) Jove event, 6 hours ( including traveling there and moving back ) Demonstration against slavery in Amarr, 3 hours ( including traveling there and moving back Killing the Amarr Priests, 4 hours ( including traveling there and moving back ) Eram Event, 14 hours ( including placing and removing the FREEDOM sign ) 3) For the Jove event ( with Stain ) we were contacted by Ouria if we would aid them. Demonstration against slavery was set up by the Freedom Fighters. Killing Amarr Priests was informed via the news page if u log in ( where they would be ) Eram Event was Founded by Oracle ( and Freya Jones ) 4) Jove's - Nothing Slavery Demonstration - Brotherly feeling with everyone there Killing Amarr Priests - Killing Amarr Priests :) Eram Event - Brotherly feeling with everyone there ( and maybe more ) 5) Jove - Yes and No, it was a special invitation Slavery Demonstration - I believe yes, i at least remembered reading it in the news Killing Amarr Priests - Yes ! Eram Event - If i remember correctly they reported after the event, though we did have Veniel ( Jove ) showing up, cheering at the fact that we would not let go of our past.
Joshua, I suggest u start your own event here and there, your a Caldari, people know u, maybe u can do something with the Caldari/Gallante thing.
Another thing, Get in touch with EVE Radio, they do great stuff for the comunity ( Event wise ) Or look for the weekly events, wacky race, indy 5000, all the others ( i dont know what is out there atm )
Greetings,

1) Yes 2) A couple of months back - had to track down a 'package' that a less than scrupulous individual was trying to retrieve. He had a Caldari official tailing him so he had to jettison it in low sec space, but he couldn't remember exactly where it dropped. The rest of us had to find it. 3) I was travelling through Yulai (prior to the new Highway system) and noticed some funky coloured text in local. Got down and danced. Err, or not. 4) Well the event developed as we went along - it turned out the Caldari official had picked up the smuggler's package (oo-er missus!) so it turned into a man hunt. Some guy managed to destroy the official's ship, pick up the package and return it to the smuggler. He was rewarded with a basic implant. 5) Not to my knowledge, but it was a small-scale event.

1) Yes. 2) Ouria, last year. 3) In game. 4) A great big f**k all. 5) I don't think the Scope forum existed at the time.
"Events" in EVE are pretty poor. The roleplaying (if you can call it that) is pretty poorly done, and any atmosphere they try to create is usually ruined by the c**ksucking hyenas that appear in local at the slightest hint of loot being dropped (they don't actually take part, they just hang around for the cans).
The events themselves are usually just a showcase for effects and models that you don't normally see in the game, ie. the Opus Luxury Yacht or some comet effect. If you want to see that sort of thing you can do it without all the ham and space-chavs by having a play around with your EVE files.

There's a few rules every event seems to follow. Hobbes explained them at one time, perhaps you can find that thread

Nice! 
I nearly got podded during that event because people thought I'd nicked the package

Only event I participated in was the one when the research station was being attacked. We tried to kill "Rabbit" in a system 3 jumps from Luminair, but failed due to the instant full shield recharge that he had :-) He then insta jumped to the station (how he jumped 3 systems at once is beyond me) and by the time we got to the lab all the action was over and the station was destroyed with the researchers taken hostage.
I heard about it on trade or something, a player named Doc Brown announced it, so I came over to join his gang. Spelling corrections welcome, but don't expect me to edit my post. |

Edited by: Scorpyn on 08/05/2004 14:35:42 1) Yup 2) Hauler escort, 3/5 3) Greentextmessage in local 4) 1.5M each to all who participated + we got to blast some Thoraxes (the thoraxes might have dropped something interesting though) 5) Yup
Some greedy ppl were there - other than that, it was all good. It must be difficult to arrange events when ppl only participate for the reward that may or may not come.
Are you trying to make a record in corphopping or something?

Yes
2) What was it and how long ago did it take place?
Blow up slavers please. Approx 1 month ago.
3) How did you hear about it?
In game channels. Bounty, EVE chat, and Trade. There was a concurrent trade event going on at the same time, so us gun bunnies got to do some shooting as well :)
4) What was the reward?
Losing the no claims bonus on my BBird and getting called a pirate. Just cos the area was 0.0 doesn't mean I'm a bad man.
5) Was The Scope forum used to advertise the Event?
Well, they called me a pirate afterwards. Which was nice. I wonder, can I sue the buggers for slander? I'm not a carebear or a PKer, I'm a Swearbear. NEWS FLASH: Slaver fights back. Must remember, PAradise crusie missles hurt more than harsh language.

Assuming your about, and promise not to blow my ass up, I'll let you know. Certain characters and corps ar run by the event staff, if you know who to look for, you can get an idea of when a event will take place. ++++++++++++++++++++ CEO of the Space Munchkins. Fear my kneepads of allure!
