Dark Shikari Sharks With Frickin' Laser Beams	Posted - 2008.06.08 17:19:00 - [1] Edited by: Dark Shikari on 08/06/2008 17:22:56 The bad news: If you haven't noticed already, I've basically quit EVE. It began to creep up on me once I realized I was a full-time college student, but it got worse when I found major projects outside of EVE and eventually got a summer job related to that project (x264). Given I'm now both developing at night and working at Avail Media, an IPTV company, in the daytime, I don't have much time left for EVE. Fortunately for everyone here, a friend of mine convinced me to come back to clean up everything. AATP is going to have to get a new CEO. The good news: To compensate for my incredible laziness and not being active at all with AATP (related to me not playing EVE!), I am donating my entire AATP share portfolio back to the company, with a net worth of nearly 10 billion. This should be more than sufficient to compensate for lost profits, assuming that the next CEO does a good job with things. So, AATP needs a new CEO, and it needs someone who I personally trust enough (and of course someone who the shareholders trust enough). Proposals? I was thinking it could maybe merge into EMFI (assuming that's still going, I have not been paying attention), since its basically a shell corp at this point.

AATP is invested heavily in H-TI. But how much does it have besides that? And have H-TI sorted out their CEO problems, is it paying dividends now? Assuming nothing happened while I was gone (since about one month ago), H-TI has things sorted out. But you'll have to ask them. AATP has one character it owns with quite a few skill points and RPs, along with a Taranis BPO and ~15 billion ISK, plus "70 billion ISK" or so invested in H-TI. Quotes, because I have no idea what H-TI is actually worth these days.
Dark Shikari Sharks With Frickin' Laser Beams	Posted - 2008.06.08 22:02:00 - [3] By the way, as always, I am available as "Dark Shikari" on AIM or [email protected] on MSN, for anyone who wants to contact me to deal with the AATP situation.
Dark Shikari Sharks With Frickin' Laser Beams	Posted - 2008.06.09 18:30:00 - [4] Originally by: Ray McCormack Originally by: Fader Bane Perhaps doing something through the fellows at Eve Bank? Heh, I could say with perhaps some certainty that DS wouldn't hand over anything else but a wet bag of pooh to the EBank chaps. As to liquidation, I'm not even sure that is a possibility with the H-TI deal. DS, would you be willing to sell the character and handle the costs associated with that? Yes, I'd be willing to sell the character. Originally by: Verite Rendition This is off-topic, but congrats on getting accepted in to the Google Summer of Code, DS. Well, moreso, I volunteered--I'm the mentor, not the student Though a congratulations for my project being accepted is certainly in order, I guess
Dark Shikari Sharks With Frickin' Laser Beams	Posted - 2008.06.14 17:21:00 - [5] Edited by: Dark Shikari on 14/06/2008 17:22:37 EBANK has proposed to buy out and liquidate AATP (EBANK board hasn't approved it yet though). This would work as follows: 1. I dividend the current ~15.5b in AATP wallet. 2. EBANK buys all assets for 75b. 3. I dividend 75b in ISK. Since I will have donated my shares back to AATP, each investor will receive roughly 10k per share in dividends. Is this reasonable?
Dark Shikari Sharks With Frickin' Laser Beams	Posted - 2008.06.14 17:47:00 - [6] Originally by: Maestro Del'Tirith Maybe you should do a shareholder vote? I was going to put one up once EBANK approved the buyout.
Dark Shikari Sharks With Frickin' Laser Beams	Posted - 2008.06.14 18:59:00 - [7] Originally by: Deovina hmm could we get a list of the current BPOs so we can properly acces wether the value is fine. T¦ BPO values have risen again (Vulture 40b) thus the current portfolio might be liquidated with a nice profit. I guess EBANK already saw the current list and is fine with its value. It would be interested how big their expected profit could be and if it would be worth it liquidate the BPOs ourselves. Current assets: 1. Taranis BPO + 100 Taranises and a few components. 2. 9k H-TI shares which pay 3b total payout per month. 3. 15.5b in assets. 4. One highly trained R&D character with a huge number of RPs. I actually forgot about 4), so I'll talk with Ricdic about the value of that.
Dark Shikari Sharks With Frickin' Laser Beams	Posted - 2008.06.14 21:04:00 - [8] Originally by: Ray McCormack DS, let's talk. I think we can come to a conclusion that sees this stay in the public domain. If you want to make a counter-offer or proposal, call me up on IM

You'll find me as "Dark_Shikari" on Freenode.
Dark Shikari Deep Core Mining Inc.	Posted - 2008.06.15 15:17:00 - [10] It appears there's already bickering over this . Oh, and yes, I will release a 3b ISK dividend soon enough.
Dark Shikari Deep Core Mining Inc.	Posted - 2008.06.22 16:07:00 - [11] Originally by: Ray McCormack Originally by: Dark Shikari It appears there's already bickering over this . Did you expect any less from MD? I can't logon to FreeNode for some reason, so herewith my proposal. * Maintain the 75b investment in H-TI. - It seems returns are 4% a month, and if that is after capital retention then even better. * Sell the character. - How many SP does it have. Is it mainly Industrial spec'd? * Sell DS's 10b in shares. * Utilise the additional 15b + 10b + the revenue from the character sale for medium-term, idle investments. Such as minerals, moon and advanced materials, etc. - The Asset's API will be utilised, and Jita Buy prices used to calculate NAV. - Once a final handover NAV is decided on, this will be used as the base, and any additional ISK over this will be dividended out. Who would be the CEO? By the way, those returns are not after capital retention. The character has something like ~10m SP and is an absolute maxed RP character with 4 or 5 research agents that have been collecting for at least half a year now. Originally by: Jennine Tyler Any Updates on this? I want my update from Ricdic too. If people think its time for a vote, say so. (Seriously, this would all happen much faster if people started using AIM/MSN).
