Mallory Sweetie	Posted - 2008.12.31 11:04:00 - [1] Hello all, so I have been mining all day and started thinking about random stuff. What if Bill Gates, founder of Microsoft got bored and hired 6000 people to play Eve in his own private alliance, he can afford it, billions in real life isk!!!! He would have 2000 people cover each 8 hour shift and they would never be afk. He could literally, destroy every alliance, and field 2000 man super cap fleets. Imagine all the GTC he could sell. Would CCp allow it, I dont know if they would turn away 6000 paying subs, but it is always a possibility a rich Middle Eastern Prince will get some crazy idea. I need to sleep. Happy New Year!!!!!
Sheriff Jones Amarr Clinical Experiment	Posted - 2008.12.31 11:05:00 - [2] Would allow it i think. Afterall, it's in the limits of the rules to get a big group of "friends" and eliminate all. kicks a few penguins under the couch Shhhh....not yet! My opinions represent the opinions of my corporation completely. I'm the CEO damnit.

Darwin Duck Caldari Provisions	Posted - 2008.12.31 11:08:00 - [4] Nah, he'd be banned for buying isk on ebay within a week :p

Pan Crastus Anti-Metagaming League	Posted - 2008.12.31 11:12:00 - [6] Edited by: Pan Crastus on 31/12/2008 11:13:04 You sound like the guy who was begging for billionaires to save GM from the economic crisis. ;-) PS. what if the russian army got bored and started a few 100.000 EVE accounts? :-P How to PVP: 1. buy ISK with GTCs, 2. fit cloak, learn aggro mechanics, 3. buy second account for metagaming
Chobham	Posted - 2008.12.31 11:20:00 - [7] Just use 2000 computers, hook them up with macros/keybinds and all into one keyboard/control panel. Spend 2 months training stealth bombers, bombs, and figuring out how to align them all in the same direction. Buy GTCs to pay for 2000 SBs and bombs. Then go have fun out in 0.0. I'd laugh so hard if I saw 2000 bombs being launched simultaneously into a 100+ person blob. That or train them all to be discogeddons and warp them all to jita 4-4 during peak hours after using one of the accounts to eject from a navy raven parked right outside.

NeoTheo Dark Materials	Posted - 2008.12.31 11:40:00 - [10] interstingly (and i think rather a nobel thing to do), bill is giving away all his money (or at least most of it), he is attempting to cure some 3rd world desease. i think he wants a peace prize before he hits the big scam in the sky. - DAMT - If you dont know, well, you dont know!
Sheriff Jones Amarr Clinical Experiment	Posted - 2008.12.31 11:42:00 - [11] Also Bill could just create his own spacegame that was way better. Way better simply to the amount of crap that could be poured into it in a week My opinions represent the opinions of my corporation completely. I'm the CEO damnit.

Jim McGregor	Posted - 2008.12.31 13:46:00 - [18] Edited by: Jim McGregor on 31/12/2008 13:47:51 I think he would be more interested in making real money. I saw a interview with him and the guy actually has some mental puzzles with him in the car so he doesnt get bored while waiting in lines... he is a interesting guy, highly intellectual without being boring. --- Originally by: Roguehalo Can you nano Titans?
Washell Olivaw	Posted - 2008.12.31 14:07:00 - [19] Fortunately, he's more interested in spending his money on global health and education issues than winning internet spaceship games. Second, you don't get to be a billionaire playing games all day. Originally by: Signature Everybody has a photographic memory, some people just don't have film.
Dantes Revenge Caldari	Posted - 2008.12.31 17:17:00 - [20] Originally by: Washell Olivaw Second, you don't get to be a billionaire playing games all day. But once you're a billionaire, you can... -- There's a simple difference between kinky and perverted. Kinky is using a feather to get her in the mood. Perverted is using the whole chicken. All this has happened before and will happen again

But once you're a billionaire, you can... They usually lack the mentality and peace of mind to sit down and play a game though. They just start up some little side project that earns them a few mil. Their kids however... Originally by: Signature Everybody has a photographic memory, some people just don't have film.
Blastil	Posted - 2008.12.31 18:59:00 - [22] It already happened. What do you think the NC is?
Shogun Archer Gallente Brotherhood of Soban	Posted - 2008.12.31 19:06:00 - [23] If Bill Gates hired the same kind of people that he hired to make his "oh so fabulous" OS's, I'd say we don't really have anything to worry about. Honestly. If I was in a war against the same idiots that made Vista, I'd be piling up the bodies. Let him bring it.
ceaon Gallente Porandor	Posted - 2008.12.31 19:52:00 - [24] EULA say some like .... for personal entertainment only .... so you cant pay ppl to play eve blah
Crackzilla The Shadow Order New Eden Research	Posted - 2008.12.31 19:59:00 - [25] Originally by: ceaon EULA say some like .... for personal entertainment only .... so you cant pay ppl to play eve Many ways around this. Besides, how effective would 2000 players be? This means maybe 1 hour of play time a day after figuring in meetings etc. And how could you fight a battle? The subcommitee wouldn't even have had time to review the list of potential fc's much less approve official fittings!

The image of that paperclip popping up into space hit my head...
Rothgar Detris	Posted - 2008.12.31 20:17:00 - [27] " Mr. Gates, please explain to this sub-commitee why you haven't abused your monopoly power with your 'Windows' software.." " Monopoly is merely a game, senator. I'm trying to control the f***ing world!!"
Ivana Drake	Posted - 2008.12.31 20:25:00 - [28] Would you like some help?

Crackzilla The Shadow Order New Eden Research	Posted - 2008.12.31 20:39:00 - [30] Originally by: Sacul You ever played a Microsoft game before? hey! The demo looked awesome and the sale pitch rocked! Besides, everything will be fixed in SpaceGame 2009 which will be released in 2010. You're running Windows 7 right?
