EO goons that didn't burn out or quit over the years of literal torturous grinding bullshit have gone insane. Delve War 2 where we killed thousands of towers over a period of weeks all day every day should have been the breaking point for any rational person.

It's like a child being raised by wolves. If you want to play a videogame you have to be tortured by dumb bullshit, boring waits, endless monotony and spreadsheets. It's all they know.

So while everyone else is doing pvp or whatever, it's time to begin preparations for wal-marx.

I have 5/5/4 in BC production. This is important.

We have ridiculously cheap minerals because of the amazing efforts of Cetan and his glorious ability to squeeze blood from stone. And this is sustainable (for now). So let me break this down barney style:

-A prophecy basically costs around 165 mil to make (with our current mineral and blueprint costs).
-A prophecy in Jita costs 222 mil to buy.
-A prophecy being spamming in contracts in Jita is 208 mil.
-The market cost of dumping a Prophecy to the market is 20% (for now). We can get this to 15% eventually.
-165 * .2 = 33 mil
-Total cost of putting a prophecy on the market is 165 + 33 mil...198 mil
-We have roughly 15 bil in minerals/datacores to continuously build from, and can replace those minerals pretty easily

-Importantly: It costs around 200 mil for a pubbie to make a Prophecy

Conclusion:

We can break the Battlecruiser market and make a profit while doing it.

I told Cetan to prep his butthole for continuous stream of necessary minerals. Time to see what this "capitalist paradise" can handle when it encounters communist mass production :getin:

I just discovered by accident that letting Omega status lapse doesn't mess up skill training. I was over halfway done with an omega skill and the progress just halted until I paid up again. I remember seeing some people speculate about how this worked so I thought I'd mention it.

Some butthurt Goon sharing our 'masterplan' on Reddit? Well I never.

Problem is it wont change anything because, much like real life, people will just buy our stuff because its cheaper. Ethics, corp loyalty, etc be damned. There really is no such thing as bad publicity anymore.

Phantom my Opera and call me South Park: Bigger, Longer, & Uncut
Cubical's Ship-Ordering Long Con: CEO-Level Edition

The set-up: Take advantage of the Honk industrial powerhouse by ordering, welping, re-ordering, and ordering backups of free ships. Have some theoretical “alts” so that this appears normal. Spread the ship types around. Don’t order TOO many, fly a little under the radar, like a low-flying bird of some kind.



A recent announcement showed that I hit the mark spot-on, ranking in at number nine. Noticeable, but not suspicious.



Then, watch and wait for the perfect moment to strike. A combination changing of the guard with Jazz stepping down as well as our new leader hitting a wall.



Perfect, the time has come. I start flooding the corp ovens with T7 ship order after T7 ship order, knowing that it’s a matter of “when” not “if.”




In order to ensure that I don’t run out of funds, of course, I have to cycle those T7’s quickly. My previous strategy with the Prophecy didn’t pan out that well, so I push for a new tactic.



I go about my business, running a few deadspaces, afk hisec anom farming, selling some loot for the corp on my market alt, ironing out some details for my PVP skill plan, thinking to myself...“Maybe I picked the wrong time.” and “It looks like this is going to be another failure post in the Toilet Eve thread.” I take a nap. When I check Discord I almost can’t believe my eyes.



Boom! Like all Goon Echoes CEO’s before him, Kris just got GOT. Giving away free T6 ships is one thing, but PAYING me to take T7’s off his hands. Is this who you, the average joe SA goon trusts with the keys to the castle? I’d like to initiate a vote of NO CONFIDENCE for Mr. Kruel.



Fin.
