    I am posting this pet project of mine just to bring a bit of transparency into an area of the game many people may not be thinking about much, but that is significantly influencing wealth distribution behind the scenes.

    I obviously had to make some assumptions where data was missing (everything past the 41.3B), so let me know if you have ideas on how to improve the accuracy. I believe it is close, but far from perfect!

    Full disclosure: I did speak to Vily about an earlier estimate I made. He says the real number is a bit lower than this, but this is the calculation I find feasible at the moment. And while I think he is likely telling the truth, he is hardly impartial, so trusting him blindly would be unprofessional. I will keep improving it as I gather more information.

    Dear Jane...

    Posted: 30 Jul 2020 10:03 PM PDT

    My love....

    The war is a silly enterprise, managed by people who should probably have paid more attention at their first job. After having been stationed at the top secret rally point for several days with no action I have decided that WWB2 will not come to me (as some would expect war to do) and so I strike out on my own. Yes, back to my nomadic roots; the heady days of yore when a Capsuleer could take a ship, a few guns and thousands of bullets and make his own way. The true way. Where I go no 3rd party extension may dare! I cannot say where exactly I will go or who I will fight; this is the way of the nomad, my allegiance is to myself! Perhaps others will seek to join me, or more likely turn me into a space popsicle, but I digress - the way of the true warrior is on the path to war!!!

    There is a wind of change coming, and I will not wait idly by while it howls through New Eden like a gale. No my dear ubiquitous Jane, I will not be passed over, passed up or passed by. I will take these tier one ships and learn to fly because all my life, I was only waiting for this moment to arrive. Fly Capsuleer, fly...

    With love. X.redacted.X

    PS: if you could sign those divorce papers and forward them to my lawyer in Jita that would be great. Also, I'm keeping the dog and getting Omega with the corporate card. Payback for that weekend you "went to your mothers house".

    Eve through the Eyes of Newbs. Its not too pretty apparently.

    Posted: 30 Jul 2020 05:57 AM PDT

    So after much chatting at work about how awesome New Eden is two of my co-workers decided to sprout their space wings and give it a whirl. This is their experience after a week:

    The first guy to sign up is interested in industry. Its what he has focused on in other games and was excited about the massive potential Eve has to offer to indy-centric players. He started out in his handy dandy Venture and started plotting his course to becoming an industrial giant. Well that is, after he had to ask 100 questions about everything from how to move around, find asteroid belts (the newb system was mined out every day apparently), what to do with the ore etc etc etc. He broke away from the New Player Experience because it was confusing him. Only after I came in and explained a lot to him did he even re-attempt the game as he said it was too confusing for him to continue on his own.

    So, once he was semi-confident in how to mine and figured out how to leave a system and get back to it he took his venture out and started pounding rocks. Then he got ganked....in a venture. Congrats Code. on that epic km. So I explained ventures were pretty flimsy and he should mine in something else a little heftier. After talking him out of mining in a battleship he chose to go omega and try out a barge. I steered him towards a procuror for the tank and he trained into that. Then he joined a small new player corp made by newbs for newbs. The second day he was in that corp one of his corp mates (less than a month old) got, you guessed it, ganked. Again, congrats Code on your epic kill. Now my friend is overly paranoid about gankers. He has been in game for about a week and thinks everyone is out to get him. He flew to Jita and on the way saw....someone get ganked...so he wont go to jita now. Last night I spent over an hour walking him through how to set up his first PI colony so he's excited about that. I never really thought about how complicated PI was until I had to try and explain it. At least he hasnt quit yet.

    On to the second guy. This guy is big into role play games and has spent a good amount of time doing them. He started out really excited to role play a minmatar. Having heard about the Fountain War but also how difficult Eve is to get into he was a little resistant to starting but I told him I would help him out with isk and knowledge so after talking to Guy #1 and hearing my stories he decided to give it a go. Day 1 he said the New Player Experience was confusing and Aura was annoying. He stopped playing through the NPE out of slight frustration. Day 2 had the same complaints as Day 1 and he hasn't played since. Said he might try it again later but I know what that means.

    So my excitement at having some RL friends playing Eve has honestly turned into a little embarrassment since neither one of them are really truly enjoying the game. I was amazed when I pulled up Code.'s kb last night and saw all the ventures on there. My how the "mighty" have fallen? Ganking hulks is one thing but ventures...i mean fkn newb ventures? Pathetic at best. And CCP...I know you are very proud of your NPE but apparently it doesnt really cover anything except 'move, orbit, target, F1'. And Aura seems to annoy more than she helps.

    Anyways, just thought I would give a little perspective on what I'm hearing/seeing from a couple of new players. I can help with isk and knowledge but since I cant be there to walk them through every single aspect of eve they rely on CCP for the rest and both of them sorta think CCP is letting them down right now. How can we expect new players to stick with the game when the very basic starter "missions" confuse them and then they have to worry about losing everything to some high sec ganker "leet pvper" saggy vaginas before they even have a chance to learn how to play the game? And please for the love of god dont say "they need to join a new player null group" because at this point, neither of them want to do that. They just wanna learn how to play the game first.

    Fozzie Sov

    Posted: 30 Jul 2020 11:06 PM PDT

    So we are seeing a major war now that has the combination of Fozzie sov and citadel mechanics.

    Thinking on citadel spam was that it was no better than POS mechanics because of the sheer number of timers. It was thought that it would be very draining for an attacking force.

    In fact in Fountain what we have seen is that the standing fleet have taken the main role in clearing anything below a fortizar often hitting several timers consecutively. This has meant that fleets are only formed for fortizar timers up, and even then can be split quite effectively if there is no real defensive force.

    From a grind perspective then (for me) this is much preferable to POS mechanics with entosis moving away from claw fleets in to specific tanks toasters and actual fleets fighting, sometimes on multiple nodes.

    What are your thoughts on POS control vs citadels and fozzie sov? Was Fozzie right and it's just taken a while to mature as a mechanic?

    World War Bee 2: Electric Boogaloo , A Summary of Lessons Learned. Humbly submitted by Panther X

    Posted: 30 Jul 2020 09:28 AM PDT

    There are allegedly around 30,000 Goons, right? That's out of 7.125 billion humans. That means Goons make up 0.000421% of the planet. That's not 10%---that's point zero zero zero four percent; less than a percent. To put it another way, 99.99996% of the planet are not Goons. How do we know this? CCP data pron. Now, the best CCP data graphs have a margin of error of at least 1%. So Goons make up 0.000421% of the planet, plus or minus one percent.

    In conclusion: there is a 50/50 chance that no one cares about Goons.
