That's not a conclusion I'd draw from his actions if this were someone with some self-awareness, but he doesn't seem to have any, so you're probably right. A normal person who's been hellpurged will just go fuckgoons and try to kill ratters, or completely avoid being a total shitbird and actually try to convince everyone they've changed, but this guy can't manage either. Ratting in Deklein while in groon, in ESS systems no less? Is he trying to act like he was never kicked, and hoping nobody will notice?

If you're local, EveVegas is going to be just a social mixer -- it's fun, but nothing to write home about. Talk to Zapa and see if you can get into the Saturday night party; skip the rest of the convention and read the announcements on TMDC.

For non-locals, EveVegas is primarily an excuse to get lewd in Vegas, and if you do some Eve-related poo poo along the way, that's cool too. (And, in the case of last year, taking as much of Somer Blink's isk as possible.)

When I was Rote executor, it was an opportunity to gladhand people, make political connections, and drink Courthouse's liquor. If I go this year (and I probably will) it is going to an opportunity to get shitfaced and stare at titties, and drink Courthouse's liquor.

e: To be clear, the issue at hand is that EV is almost always in October, which means it's between expansions. So sometimes the Eve content consists of new exciting stuff, and sometimes it's just a rehash of stuff you already saw in dev blogs (or at Fanfest). It's fun for Eve players, to be sure -- but it's not something I'd go to Vegas for on its own merits. Thankfully, Vegas is my exact idea of a good time, so I can entertain myself plenty inbetween the nerdage.

Sorry to interrupt the flow in here, but there's a link I'd like to share:

http://www.abc.net.au/tv/goodgame/

For those interested, this is a link to the Good Game TV show which is probably the premier gaming program in Australia. This particular episode (series 10, episode 3) has a news article on the B-R fight which I thought was pretty neat.

If you don't want to watch the whole episode, use the menu on the right to select the "Feature Story: EVE online" for the good bits.


Enjoy!

CCP had a new idea: Now you can send messages into the future!

For 1 PLEX (textmessage, max. 1000 words) or 2 PLEX (videomessage, max. 2 minutes) your message will be recorded in a solid-state device and this device will then be sealed inside the monument standing in the Reykjavik harbor. And on Eve's 36th birthday, on May 6th 2039, the device will be recovered and opened, allowing a new generation to hear and read what you wanted to tell them.

I hope your bank accounts are liquid, sending messages into the future is a bit more expensive than sending a letter. :v:

Decided to try my hand at production with an alt account yesterday. Not sure how long I'm going to stick with it though, because all of these calculators I'm using are telling me that pretty much every blueprint is either unprofitable or not worth my time.

The main issue is that I look at the cost to produce and think "I could boost my profitability some by mining the minerals myself!", and mining is a terrible thing that nobody should ever do.

From what I've tried, it only becomes profitable once you have all your efficiency skills really drat high, because otherwise, you're losing a lot of potential profit to not having V in everything.

A couple years ago, I did manage to make a slight profit from making Scourge Fury Heavy Missiles from the salvage I collected, as long as I got someone else to refine it.

You aren't boosting your profitability by mining because your time has value. In the same hour that you spent mining x crok, you could have done y anoms or spent that time doing market pvp for potentially much more money. You also have to take into account the refining of the minerals which, unless you are fully skilled with the proper standings, you will take losses on as well. Mining is a fairly safe, steady, and predictably poor income in general.
