00:12:34 Hello, everyone. Welcome back to CSM 20 Candidate Interviews. This is our fifth segment over the last three days. This is actually our final segment. But don't you worry, we've got like several hours to go. I think we've got about 14 or 15 candidates to go for the next little bit. So just sit back, enjoy. If you're doing other stuff in EVE, if you're running through Crimson Harvest and just have us on another screen, that's great.
00:13:03 Ja, Susie Willoughby, wie geht's es? Ich bin gut. Wir waren gerade überraschend, wie wir übermittelt, dass wir hier sein können. Ich, für einen, bin ich excited. Wir haben, du hast 14, ich denke, es ist 12 Uhr. Und einige geänderten, also wir haben es geändert, und wir haben uns aufgewachsen. Für jetzt, doch, wir werden die Show wieder auf den Weg gehen.
00:13:30 Wir haben die erste Kandidaten, in unserer Zeit. Wir bringen in Burtis... Sorry, ich werde nicht sagen, mein Name zu lange. All right, willkommen Burtis Antonioprimis. Hopefully, ich habe das okay. Ich habe das gut, danke. Wie sind Sie? Ich bin gut, ich bin gut.
00:13:59 I'm ready for your questions, I'm ready for your answers, and I'm ready for this all. Well, then let's get started on the questions. Can you introduce yourself? Who are you and what have you been doing in EVE? Alright, I am Bertus Antonio Primus. I have been playing EVE since 2008, sporadically.
00:14:19 Fair enough. Life does happen in that way. So in EVE, what have you been doing since 2008? Is there like a specific playstyle that you do? Is there a specific area of space you're in?
00:14:49 I'm glad you asked that question. I am a jack-of-all-trades, master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one. You, sir, have practiced that line. Yes, I have.
00:15:05 Alright, so why CSM20? Why are you running now? Because I believe it's your first time running for CSM, right? It is my first time running for CSM. I'm retired from the military, I have a lot of time on my hands, and I wanted to get back to the community that I've been a part of for so long.
00:15:28 Right on, that's a very noble thing to do. We really, really appreciate the CSM process as a whole, right? Like obviously we love the CSM members who get elected because we spend so much time with them, but just the process of running is a wonderful thing as well because it starts some crazy good conversations, sheds some insight into like...
00:15:50 The different playstyles and the different versions of Eve that kind of everyone plays. Everyone plays a different version and we love to know kind of like what is important to every other person.
00:16:01 Oh, ja, go for it. Go for it? Alright, you got this. Alright, you've heard it over the last, I don't know, 10 years. Logistics getting on Killmails. I know you've heard it. I know everybody at TCP has heard it. But it's been done to death. But it needs to be said. Logistics somewhere. I don't care where you put it. Oh, right now we just put it nowhere. So that's fine. We'll just keep it in bed. No!
00:16:29 Ja, das ist, glaube ich, eine der Dinge, die kommt. Wir haben immer noch ein paar Techniken, aber ich hoffe, wir können es da. Wir wissen, dass die Lazy Bros sind, sich und sich aus dem Assignieren, eine Single-Sentry-Drone oder Single-Warrior-One zu jemandem. So, sie wollen auf den coolen Z-Kill-Wagon, auch. Ja, wir machen.
00:16:58 So what other, like you said you were a jack of all trades, you've done quite a lot in EVE Online, especially since you're playing since 2008. That's quite a track record to have. But if you were to select just a couple of areas of expertise that you have or just like the type of constituents or the type of voter that you plan on representing.
00:17:19 Well, I like the industry, and I have an idea for mining. I do want to hear it, so it's a really good idea. But I'll just tell you anyway. Anyway, so... Okay, so you know how in the beginning of the game, in the beginner quest, you have that asteroid that you mine, and inside that asteroid is a wreck, and inside that wreck is a box?
00:17:44 Yes, Elias Peltonen, so something like that. He has that secret little piece of who knows what's in there. How come you don't see that anywhere else in Eve? No, that is a very good question. You don't see little boxes inside of Asteroids, don't see Rex inside of Asteroids, don't see any of that.
00:18:14 Ja, ich würde es gerne auf den Kommentaren machen. Es wäre wirklich cool zu haben, mehr Miningen zu machen und zu diversen Miningen ein bisschen. Ja.
00:18:28 Not change it outright, right? No, no, no. Maybe add some additive stuff in there. So maybe some new asteroids that have cool random stuff inside. Yeah, and it could be random throughout all of EVE. ISEC, LOSEC, NALSEC, it doesn't matter. It could be random.
00:18:48 I like it. Speaking of random, not quite speaking of random, but there are quite a lot of other CSMs out there, CSM candidates rather running. There are 55 others besides yourself. Is there anyone that you've kind of encountered through this election cycle where you're like, oh man, it would be really cool to be on the CSM with, or just maybe they synergize really well with...
00:19:12 mit was du offer, oder mit was du mit einigen Deficiencias hast, oder etwas, was du überrasst? Ich hatte die Möglichkeit, eine College-Kinne zu schießen, aber we messed that up.
00:19:28 And, uh, what else? I've talked to Sawdust a lot. Uh, I want to keep my options open till the end of the interviews because you gotta, you gotta be educated in all the aspects and not just like what somebody tells you to do. Be educated. Read the, read the forums. Mine's not so good, but, you know, read the forums and
00:19:58 And watch the interviews and get to know these people that are trying to represent you. Yeah, right on. Being informed is a hugely important part of the CSM. That's why we love doing these interviews. We love to get to know just a little bit about a candidate. We know that there is so much more to know about you and everyone else running.
00:20:18 So make sure to check out forum threads for people that pique your interest a little bit. But kind of dovetailing off of that when it comes to communication. Communicating is a huge part of not only being on the CSM, but running for the CSM. I'm sure you've been barraged with DMs from people wanting to know a little bit more about you, maybe some in-game messages, stuff like that. So if you're elected, how do you plan to kind of communicate back with the player base?
00:20:47 Well, I do have an in-game channel called Birdis for CSM20. I have, obviously, my in-game mail. And I do have a Twitch channel that I'm not going to promote because I don't want to do that yet. You can promote it whenever you want. It's not going to be. Alright, I am DarkIvan73 on Twitch. I am BirdisAntonioPrimus on Twitter.
00:21:17 Right on, that's great. And when you do Twitch streams, do any of your Twitch streams, are they CSM focused at all or gameplay focused? What are they like? Good question. The last four have been CSM focused, where I just sit there and wait for people to come in and talk to me about what they think would be, you know, what is important to them.
00:21:44 I do get a little tipsy. But it's only because I had three beers a night. Now, I wish I could go on some drunk fleets, though. Those were fun. Yeah, some of the most fun corp rooms is just when people are just relaxed, having a good time on like a Friday or Saturday evening. And then invariably someone gets left behind and just sits in space and dies in a fancy ship. Yeah.
00:22:14 Und dying in fancy ships is what we all do, and Eve, that is how we explode. Uh, Virtus, quick question. It's one of my favorites, so I have to ask it each interview. Can you describe yourself in three words? Yes, I can. I am trustworthy, loyal, and damn handsome.
00:22:37 Not exactly three words, but I will allow it. It was good and confident. I like it. Thank you. Yeah, there's a hyphen in there somewhere. That counts, right? I'm sure. Yeah, for sure. Yeah, yeah. My wife made me do the last one.
00:22:55 Smart lady, you've got. Indeed. One more question. We've got a couple more questions, but one of the ones that we wanted to chat about is the time commitment of the CSM. You mentioned you play EVE Online quite a bit, but you do have some free time. The CSM can be a really, really long time commitment, not just... Not a long time commitment, a large time commitment, not just...
00:23:22 because of, you know, the meetings that we have and the once a year summit, but also just like reaching out to players, hearing from them, soliciting ideas from them. So how do you plan on, you know, balancing your in-game activities around like this additional time sync that the CSM can be?
00:23:43 Well, the good thing about me is I'm retired, so I'm military retired, so I can have as much time and eve as I want to, which is a lot right now. I'm not really high up in the ash lawn of my corporation, so I don't have to worry about any of the political junk. I just repair people and shoot shit.
00:24:13 Nice. Sounds like a pretty good use of your time. Yep. All right, with that, we have already reached the end of our 10 minutes. As we said, that goes by super fast. Do you have any closing remarks before we take it offline? Oh, closing remarks.
00:24:34 Ja, New Bro Experience, quick. Quick, quick, quick, quick, quick. Epic Arts for New Bros. We need something in between the Frigate and Destroyer class. Just throw that in there. So they have something to do.
00:24:50 All right, more focused on new player stuff, new epic arcs. That would be really cool if we did a new epic arc. It's been a while. Sisters of Eve has been kind of like the big epic arc for quite some time. Maybe we'll get Elias in there to do some more mining stuff.
00:25:10 Das wäre Spaß. Ja. Well, Radon, appreciate the chat. These 10 minutes do speed on by, but it was wonderful getting to know you a little bit more. If people want to know more about you, make sure they go to your forum thread, check out your in-game channel, and follow you on Twitch to kind of get a better idea of what you represent for EVE Online.
00:25:33 CCB Lube and I will be right back getting our next candidate ready. So don't go anywhere. We've got a long night ahead of us. Yeah, see you soon. Bye, everybody.
00:30:38 Welcome back, everyone. We're continuing on with our stream of interviews of our CSM20 candidates. Right now we have Cain Carnifex with us. Cain, can you say hello? Hello, world! This is Cain Carnifex for Brave Collective, the Brave Dojo. Something like that? That works totally fine.
00:31:03 Can you tell us a bit about yourself, who you are and what you do in EVE?
00:31:10 Ja, in King Carnifex, I'm currently playing under the banner of Brave. In Brave, I'm doing some of the services for the veterans and also the beginners, meaning like stuff in the background, administer the Brave Dojo stuff, doing some of the classes for the people. Also, I'm having the hand of the YouTube channel right now, which I'm trying to publish and getting a little bit organized, which is also working.
00:31:39 Ich bin cool und brave, seit ich 14 Jahre von EVE habe, ich komme zum Beispiel mit dem Mann, der in die Nachricht spielt, aus der Administration, und alles, was du kannst in EVE machen, weil du musst es außerhalb von EVE machen. Right on, das ist wirklich gut. So, warum sind Sie, das ist nicht Ihr erste Mal für CSM, warum sind Sie für CSM 20?
00:32:08 Experience. So, like, what you do is the first time I done CSM stuff, it was a little bit rough. I was a little bit over the stuff and everything. So, like, saying I was super hyped, I was super fast on the stream and stuff like that. And with time comes age and with age comes knowledge and with knowledge comes slowdown and with slowdown comes the idea of now it's the time to give all the
00:32:36 Professionell knowledge I got from my work experience, maybe back to some games and stuff I love. And since I play very, very much EVE, that's the first target to invest a lot of my private, my highly private time into EVE, into the CSM and giving you feedback or whatever is needed.
00:33:00 As I'm sure you are aware, running for CSM and especially also being on the CSM is quite the time commitment. Some people have claimed it takes up to 20 hours a week for them. Obviously, this changes with your own approach. How do you see yourself balancing that with the rest of your private life?
00:33:19 Ich meine, wenn ich online in EVE habe, ich immer einen E-E-F für die neuen Spieler. Ich bin immer auf der Ebene von Explanung. Wenn CCP etwas neu ist, dann bin ich der erste, dass es eine Fliege ist und sagen, hey, wir machen die Biosecurity-Sites mit 10 Commerants, um es funktioniert und wie es aussieht. Beside dem, dass 10 Commerants ist WAY TOO MUCH und 3 und 2 Logis ist wie, oh!
00:33:48 Aber du kriegst die Erfahrung und die Idee. Und das verändert sich nicht. Ich habe keine Frage, dass ich noch 20 Stunden auf dem EVE habe. So, warum nicht? Ich meine, es ist die gleiche Art. Wenn sie mir Fragen oder Fragen haben, was sie experienceen, ich habe schon schon eine Funktion. Aber ich bin kein Teil der CSM, also muss ich den Dujek oder sagen die Leute, hey, unser CSM-Guy ist Dujek. Geht auf die Slack-Channel von Dujek.
00:34:17 Ich werde es über deine Ideen finden und er wird das aufklären.
00:34:22 So you already mentioned a couple of ways you're talking to people. Are these also your main avenues if you... Should you get elected? Are these your avenues to communicate with the player base? No, communicate with the player... Oh, sorry. No, no, go ahead. Communication with the player base is I'm running a YouTube channel, which is kind of educational, sorry, German, and kind of funny kind of meme stuff, like it's my personal hobby.
00:34:51 und du kannst dich ein Teil davon machen. Ich bin das für dich, ich bin das für mich. Wenn du ein Laugh auf diesen Videos hast, dann bin ich mit dir. Wenn du ein Laugh auf wie ich erzähle, wie du Carrier Rating hast, dann bin ich mit dir. Wenn du nicht möchtest, dann kannst du es einfach, weil die Internet ist voll von Sachen du kannst, und es braucht mich nicht. Wenn du etwas über CSM oder Patch Notes hast,
00:35:17 und dann werden wir ein Podcasts darüber reden, wie ich über Patchnodes denke. Ich möchte, wenn du die CCP-Videos auf die Zeit-Frame-Notes schauen willst, wenn du die Leute aus dem Team-Videos gemacht hast, das war mir.
00:35:36 Forcing them to step up their game, making these steps in the YouTube video. And I love it that somebody took that over. Because you have all the scripting. You're uploading this video. So you can already do this in the cutting software. And I do it on the fly by rewriting everything what you speak with time steps. So that's something I done. And I think because I started it, that this was a good thing.
00:36:05 Vielleicht. Es war eine gute Sache. Wir sind immer inspiriert von den Leuten, die wir in der Community tun haben, die wir sehr cool haben. Oftmals, wir wollen unsurpen, was sie machen, aber manchmal ist die Idee so gut, wir müssen es einfach so gut machen, und versuchen wir es unsere eigene.
00:36:27 Ich meine, ich liebe es. Du hast immer den Platz für die Easter Eggs in diesen Keyframes und alles. Wenn ich das gemacht habe, ich war ja, ich mache es zusammen für einen kurzen Teil. Aber mit Ihrer Version, du hast immer die Dinge, die Leute zu sehen, die alle Parts zu bekommen, die kleine Snippets, wie ich die Market Manipulation in der nächsten Patch machen kann. Sie müssen die vollen Videos zu sehen, und ich empfehle das.
00:36:56 Right on. You kind of touched on this before with some other CSM members, even one in your own group, Dujek, who's currently a member of CSM19. Is there anyone of the other 55 candidates running for CSM20 that you look at as someone that you think would be really good on the CSM, someone that would compliment your style a little bit, or just someone that you'd really like to be on there with? And I'm going to add one extra caveat for you. It can't be Dujek.
00:37:26 super easy in my work life you can choose not to have no wait you can choose not to have a meeting with me but i cannot choose to have a meeting with you so if you up i'm on the table and we have a very nice very long postmortem with a lot of people with a lot of structure about it and
00:37:51 Es ist nicht egal, ob Sie die Talking-One, die Silent-One, die die Hand braucht, und wie gesagt, hey, Sie haben Ihre eigene Tasche, neben dem Postmortem. Ich mache Moderation und so weiter. So, wenn wir ein CSM-Meeting oder so, und ich sehe, dass die Diskussion geht in der einen direkten, und wir keine Moderation haben. Ich würde dir das erste Mal sagen, wie du es machst.
00:38:18 Then you get my feedback and I tell you the CSM meeting could be way, way faster if we establish some of the post-mortem rules, some of the moderation rules and pre-written agenda and how we want to style things. Like as said in the working world, this meeting could be another email.
00:38:44 Ja, das ist sort of our guiding light when we do Organized CSM meetings, is if anyone on their CSM ever feels like it wasn't really a good use of their time, or anyone even at CCP feels it wasn't a good use of our time, and it could have just been like a Slack message or an email or a note or something, then we love to onboard that. Luckily this year, I don't think we've had any of those, but it's definitely something we always kind of strive for. Your guys' time is super valuable, and so is ours.
00:39:13 Yes. So... On that topic, honestly, of important time and valuable time, we are running out of your 10 minutes. So I want to give you a last opportunity to address anything that we haven't yet before we close this interview off.
00:39:33 Wir leben in 2025. Wenn das Rolls-Sing, alles wäre ein Spiel, würde es eine horrible Highscore haben. Und das ist, wie viele brauchen, ein bisschen Kindes. Und dann, wenn wir Passion in das, werden wir verbessern. In diesem neuen Event, zum Beispiel, sieht man, dass jemand einen Krimson-Halfest gibt, eine Art von Liebe, einen Touch. Und ich hoffe, dass du in den...
00:40:00 In den Biosecurity sites, wenn du mit den Kameras schraubst, kannst du magicke kleine Explosionen nicht mehr touchieren. Ich hoffe, du sah es. Wenn nicht, find sie. Ja, da sind wirklich lustige Sachen. Die Art-Team hat immer wirklich cool, hat wirklich cool effects, die Game Designers lief zu tinken. Das war in particular, kommt von der New Player Experience, die wir able to recycle. Aber ich bin rambling, weil ich liebe rambling über EVE Online.
00:40:30 Kaine, es ist wunderbar zu chatten mit Ihnen. Für jemanden mit Ihnen nicht familiar, Sie waren auch FanFest, zu geben Ihnen eine Präsentation. Und ja, Sie können Sie einfach mit Ihren Forum-Threaden, für Ihre andere Interviews und Ihre andere Appearances, so Sie können Sie ein bisschen besser kennenlernen. Aber wir haben die 10 Minuten gehört. Lumi und ich werden gleich mit der nächsten Kandidaten, so Sie können Sie nicht gehen.
00:47:31 Welcome back, everyone. We have another interview lined up for you guys, so let's just dive straight into it. We have brought Hyperviper One. Hyperviper, can you please introduce yourself? Who are you and what is your background with EVE? Yeah, I've been playing EVE since 2007. I am with BoomSwan Federation, been with them for almost a decade now. Do a lot of things in EVE, both manufacturing, diplomacy and spying.
00:48:03 That is an interesting list of activities you've got there. So, why now? Why CSM20?
00:48:11 I was going to be going and applying last year, but I unfortunately had a bunch of work stuff that was going to clog up my time, unfortunately not to be able to give the CSN my full attention that it needs, so I withdrew. This year now I have a lot more time open for me, so I have the time and energy to be able to make sure I give the amount of time and effort that the CSN deserves.
00:48:37 Ich habe ein paar Sachen gemacht, ich habe ein paar Sachen gemacht. Ich habe ein Teil von verschiedenen Gruppen gesehen. Ich denke, mit meinem Insight, werde ich am besten machen, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um,
00:48:55 Hell yeah, I love the long vision of that, the long view. Eve's going to be around forever. It's going to be around longer than we are. You chatted a little bit about some of your areas of expertise, things that you do, espionage being one of them, which is a really cool element to Eve Online and very, very involved, kind of many, many facets to how that can work. But what would be an area that you're...
00:49:23 vielleicht nicht sehr stark in, oder eine du nicht viel Erfahrung in hast. Wir callen diese Weaknesses, aber sie sind nicht wirklich Weaknesses, denn niemand in EVE kann absoluten alles tun.
00:49:36 Ja, ja, ich würde sagen, wenn es um Weakness zu haben, haben wir das Wichtigste, und die Begründung des Mechanismus, aber nicht nur ein Experts, würde wahrscheinlich ein Large Scale PvP und FC. Das ist, unfortunately, eine von den Skills, dass ich niemals für einen Knack für habe. Aber ich verstehe viele Konzepte, es ist einfach, dass ich nicht mehr über den Freizei in Fliegs, unfortunately. So, das macht es ein bisschen schwer für FC, wenn du so, uh...
00:50:04 Too much information in my head. I am sure you're not the only one, honestly. But luckily, you will not be alone on the CSM. There will be 11 undercandidates besides you, and we have 56 people in total vying for those 12 spots. Can you give us a little bit of insight? If you got to pick one, who would you pick to serve with?
00:50:29 Honestly, ich denke, Sintas ist gut und würde gut sein. Ich denke, Angry Mustache ist ein paar Leute, die ich gerne gerne sehen kann. Er ist ein brillanter Mensch, sehr smart, wenn es zu economisch ist, und einfach nur Daten crunching. Und er hilft, dass ein paar Sachen, die nicht so gut sind, mit Daten zu sehen.
00:50:57 Man kann sich nicht auf die Daten zu visualisieren, um die Dinge zu verändern, um die Dinge zu verändern oder zu verändern. Fair enough, nicht jeder kann sich ein Nummer-Cruncher sein. Ich weiß, dass ich nicht einer von diesen Menschen bin, für einen. Ich bin glücklich, dass wir das Menschen haben, als ihre strengths. Let's talk about you again, für ein bisschen. Kannst du dich in drei Worten, für diejenigen, die nicht wissen, dass du super gut?
00:51:25 A persistent person. I guess A counts as a word in this sentence, too, yeah? That's true. Or I could do very persistent person, if that is better than the A. It does make it a little better than the A, for sure. Okay. Some people say my grammar isn't A, I think they don't know what I'm talking about, though.
00:51:50 Meek hard, read good. Don't worry, I got you covered. I can fix that out. One of the things that's a hugely important element to being on the CSM is communicating with players and communicating with people who voted for you or just interested in the CSM. If you're elected, how do you envision yourself just dealing with that level of communication?
00:52:17 Well, one thing, I'm very skilled with dealing with that much communication. I talk to a lot of people, different alliances, and just a lot of people in general. I usually have, when I wake up, I have about 200, 300 messages to read through. So usually about between 10 to 25 different people. So people know that my doors always open to chat, and I usually respond same day if I can, or if I'm traveling and stuck in the airport, you know, it might be a little slower.
00:52:47 That is a lot of DMs to chew through every day. That is admirable that you're able to get through all of them. Hashtag respect for that one.
00:52:58 Oh, thanks. Now I just have to ask, do you have the perpetual red bulbs on your Discord, or do you clean them out because you're more like me and can't handle all the red bulbs? Well, my email says I have 9,999 messages. But most of the time, when it comes to Discord, I do go through all of them, skim through them, and respond when it's needed.
00:53:27 I feel attacked by CCPLUMI, who is very aware that I have a gajillion little red dots on my Discord. It just stresses me out too much. We used to sit next to each other in the office as a little side tangent here. His red dots freak me out so much, I can't handle it. It gives me stress. So I'm happy that you do read your messages.
00:53:51 Und ich bringe es zurück zu dir, sind Sie bereit für die Messages zu triple oder quadruple oder auf der CSM? Und können Sie dann trotzdem weitergehen? Oh ja, ich meine, die nice Sache ist, dass Multitasking und die Beziehung mit Leuten zu chatten ist. Ich definitiv nicht mehr zu tun Voice Chats mit jeder Person, die mich zu sagen. Aber Messaging, ich arbeite von Hause, also habe ich die Computer oder Telefonnummern.
00:54:18 and make good use of Google Voice the Test. Great, that's great. You know, is there anything else that you would like some prospective voters to know about you? And are there any other, I guess, any other places where you've done some interviews or where you might appear where people can know a little bit more about you?
00:54:44 Gotcha. Ja, ich meine, eine der Dinge, die ich in meinem langen Zeit habe, ist, dass ich viele verschiedene Gruppen habe. Obviamente, ich mache eine Diplomacy für Goon Swarm, also habe ich andere Allianz, und dann habe ich auch Infiltrate Allianz. So, mein Perspektiv ist, ich bekomme viele verschiedene Spiele.
00:55:07 Ich sehe viele verschiedene Perspektiven von Pan-Fan, Frats, Low-Strike Allianz, und viele verschiedene Plätze. Ich sehe und höre über die Probleme, die Allianz haben, besonders in kleineren Allianz, weil ich mit denen ein paar Menschen sprechen, und was sie tun, um die Probleme, die sie haben.
00:55:36 Ich habe mich auf den kleinen Allianz und mehr mehr Spaces gemacht, wie wenn die Empyreion in der Delft, das eine sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr.
00:56:05 Wir sehen, wie die Kosten für Solv- und SpACE ist. Das ist ein sehr guter Schreng. Ich denke, es hilft.
00:56:15 Das ist eine gute Perspektive zu adden. Und du bist absolut richtig. Der Delft-Quirius-Ere ist einfach rief mit Action. Und es ist persönlich eine meiner Lieblings-Fähigkeiten. Es fühlt sich so, die meisten Spaß haben. Die meisten Fun-Fights sind immer wieder. Die meisten Fun-Content sind immer wieder auf. So, ja, ich völlig agree mit dem. Und ich völlig empfehle das Gefühl, dass ich das Gefühl habe, dass ich das Gefühl habe. Aber, unfortunately, Hyperviper...
00:56:43 We are out of time to this chat. These things blow by so fast, I can never get over it. But really appreciate you taking the time to chat with us. I know you're busy traveling as well. So being able to hop on and make the time for us, really, really greatly appreciated, man.
00:57:00 No problem, thank you guys both for having me and good luck to all my other CSM candidates. Right on. CCB Luby and I will be right back in a couple minutes with our next candidate, so don't go anywhere and we'll see you all real soon.
00:59:57 Welcome back, everyone. We have brought yet another candidate. There is truly so many this year. So let's give the floor to Val Auroris so he can show us how he is unique from the others. Val, say hello. Hello, guys. Thanks for having me on.
01:00:16 Our pleasure for sure. So, can you introduce yourself? Who are you and what is your background in EVE? Okay, I'm Val Arroris. I'm in a Null-Psych Alliance called INIT, The Initiative. I've been playing EVE for almost two decades now. My specialty is PvP and content, usually anywhere that we can find, but mostly in Null, because that's where we sort of live.
01:00:45 Alright, so if you had to give us a high-level overview, what topics are the ones you are running for?
01:00:52 Alright, so I know there are two sides to this, right? What I can help with, that's with CCP, and what myself and my community thinks is important to be focusing on. So these two things, I know it's not a wish list, and being on the CSM is like part of a focus group, but I also want this game to last another two decades, right?
01:01:19 So, yeah, I have a few things that I'd like to focus on. One of them is I can help with the activity drivers in Nau. It's been really empty. I don't know if you ever fly around or you go around looking for content, looking for fights. It's been really quiet the past year. And I understand that because no major wars, right? So that's okay.
01:01:43 Aber es ist auch eine Funktion von nicht genug Activity Drivers und mehr Menschen auf die Echinox-Gruppe. Und ja, ich möchte das helfen. Ich bin aktiv in Space, mit verschiedenen Spielen, mit verschiedenen Spielen, mit einem Fanatical Crew. Ich weiß viele Probleme, und wir versuchen viele verschiedene Variationen auf ein paar Content. So, CCP wird mir, meine Korps, meine Alliance und die overallen PVP-Kommunity.
01:02:11 Ready and willing to give direct feedback and testing. But I also want to focus on nudging. CCP is a business, I can't really tell you guys what to do, but I can nudge. So I want to sort of nudge towards faster content, which ties into more activity drivers, less tedium, and adjusting the game for vets with less time and to entice the new guys in.
01:02:43 Genau, das ist ein breit von Erfahrung, nach 20 Jahren in EVE Online. Das ist eine verrückte Zeit. Das ist unglaublich zu sehen, und unglaublich zu sehen, die Passion und Willenheit zu contribute, zu etwas wie die CSM und die Handlung in der Ring. Speaking of which, da sind viele...
01:03:04 Es gibt 55 zusätzliche CSM, 55 zusätzliche CSM, 55 zusätzliche CSM. Hast du jemanden von der CSM gespielt, jemanden von der CSM gespielt, jemanden von der CSM gespielt?
01:03:28 So I've known Dujek for a couple of years already. We were in Brave together for a few years. So I worked quite okay with him. Kashal, I met Kashal only recently during the previous interview, but after that we were talking about some of the things that we feel should be better for the new blood coming in, the next generation of EVE players.
01:03:52 Ich möchte mit ein paar Wormhole-Wormhole-Wormhole-Wormhole-Wormhole-Wormhole-Wormhole-Wormhole-Wormhole-Wormhole-Wormhole-Wormhole.
01:04:21 Ja, das ist was ich interessiert.
01:04:25 So, if you had to pick three words to describe yourself, what are they going to be? Will they show all that experience or are you going to go for a specialty here? Well, I'm pretty patient because I spent a lot of my time actually teaching new bros the mechanics of PvP and all. And you know, actually PvP in this game is really complex. It's very beautiful when it's like small gang especially. Really nice.
01:04:54 Ich bin sehr patient, ich bin auch sehr direkt. Und ich bin aktiv. So, welche neue Activity Drivers, wie ESSs, Skyhooks, Mercdance, was kommt, ich mache das mit anderen Leuten.
01:05:20 Right on. And another huge element to being a part of the CSM is communicating. That's not only with the people who voted for you, but everyone who might be interested in kind of things that are upcoming or just, you know, players that you might want to reach out to, to solicit some feedback over an upcoming change. Because, you know, even if it's not in your wheelhouse, you're in a large alliance or in a large group, you can kind of reach out to some people and ask their ideas about stuff. So how do you plan on communicating with the player?
01:05:50 should you get elected to CSM 20.
01:05:54 So, I'm in most of the... My focus is mainly in, like, a small gang. You know, fights with less than 20 people, right? Give or take. I'm in most of the discords. I know most of the groups that... Actually, I know them from fighting with them. Fighting against them. So, you know, I mean, we pitch and moan to each other during the fight. We smack talk during the fight, but after that, you know, we actually talk about the state of the game.
01:06:20 So, being in space is actually one of the major things, I think. I'm also pretty active in a lot of the couple of Discords on Reddit, so I get a lot of feedback, I get a lot of guys dropping me messages. I think I've got over like 100 messages already on improvements to the game, but I mean, I know improvements are not, it's not a wishlist, right? We are a focus group.
01:06:45 So I can store all this and when the right time comes, or if there is a right angle, maybe we can take all this out and take a look. But yeah, this will be mainly how I intend to... This will be the community I have. I don't have everybody, but I think I got most of the guys who PvP it now anyway.
01:07:09 Oh, sorry, Lumi. Oh, yeah, you go ahead. I was going to say, there's definitely like a fraternity of fleet commanders all over the place from different organizations that chat and kind of share their experience and stuff like that. It's definitely something we've seen. And yeah, it's just funny how interconnected the game is after all these years.
01:07:35 You've already mentioned Cashal just now and her interview. Are you planning on doing any more where people can learn more about you? I'm going to be doing Loru this coming Wednesday. I forgot the timing. It's around this time. And I've got, well, I'm angling for crash naps after that, if he has the time. So these are the two I have coming up next.
01:08:03 An interview with CrashNaps is sure going to be interesting, so do let us know when and why that is happening. Yeah, I love, you know, of all the content creators, he's one of my favorites. Like, actually, it's very difficult to create content, entertaining content in Yves. Really hard. So, yeah, I always hats off to him whenever he does a solo roam, or he's like, you know, just trying to get a fight going. It's so hard.
01:08:35 One day we'll see CrashNaps running for CSM. One day. But in total, you're absolutely right. It's really cool to see the EVE community kind of come together around CSM election time to have things like candidate interviews, debates, podcasts, all these things. Because we only have like 10 minutes with you. It's just a way for people to get a very, very early and brief understanding of who you are.
01:09:02 und wissen, ob sie sich ein bisschen mehr überlegen. Wir freuen uns auf die Community, um diese Dinge zu hören. Und ich bin wirklich glücklich, dass Sie noch mehr werden, wenn Sie noch mehr wissen können. Aber als wir... Danke sehr. Ja, als wir uns aus der Zeit haben, ist es etwas, was wir nicht darüber gesprochen haben, dass die Voters wissen, oder die Leute wissen, in general, über Sie, als ein Candidate?
01:09:27 So one of the focus points that I want to talk about is actually making the game faster. So for example, today you could double warp speed. Today you could double warp speed. And immediately you're going to see more activity. You're going to see more fights, more hauling, more content in a way. Same with real life economic activity with transportation. And yeah, this is...
01:09:57 Das ist etwas, was ich möchte, weil wir viel Zeit in der Arbeit spenden. Aber ja, das ist eine kleine Sache, kleine Suggestion.
01:10:09 Very cool. Well, I appreciate the insights, Val, and really great to get to know you for the last couple of minutes. But unfortunately, we've got to go. Again, appreciate the time. Looking forward to seeing you on Loru's stream and CrashNapson's stream. It's going to be amazing to get to know all the candidates a little bit better. But for CCB Louie and I, we'll be right back in like two or three minutes with our next candidate. So be sure not to go anywhere, and we'll see you real soon.
01:10:39 Vielen Dank, Leute.
Janstina Erthodar: Erfahrungsaustausch und Community-Engagement
01:15:04
01:15:04 Welcome back, everyone. We're still going strong with CSM20 Interviews. We're almost through, but not quite yet, so we'll keep the show on the road for a little longer. For now, we've got Janstina Erthodar. Way too long of a name, so we'll just go by Jan to make it easy for everyone. So, Jan, can you please tell us a little bit about yourself? Who are you and what do you do in EVE? Awesome. So, my in-game name is Janstina Erthodar. I've been playing EVE Online since 2008.
01:15:33 I've done quite a bit over the years. If we think about my time in HiSec, it would have been mission running, mining, manufacturing, TechOne items. I spent a tremendous amount of time flying logistics in incursion fleets in HiSec. So much fun. But if we go into my time in null security space, I was there for seven years. I grew tremendously as an EVE player when I was out there.
01:15:58 Ich war die F1-monkey, pressen, shoot-this, shoot-that. Aber über die Zeit, ich wirklich wollte in F-C-ing, so ich habe das Leap-Of-Faith. Ich hatte great Mentors in den Allianz. Ich grew zu Block-Level F-C-ing, took auf F-Fights, won Campaigns.
01:16:27 Down the road, I actually trained new upcoming FCs. They grew to be even better than I was, which was fantastic to see. I used to do logistics classes, you know, training people on positioning, anchoring, all that fun stuff. I had an opportunity to lead a team in Alliance Tournament. I've been on other teams for Alliance Tournament. And, you know, NullSec was so much fun, but I wanted to try something brand new, and I took a dip into...
01:16:55 Low Security Space, and I've been with Shadow Cartel for over nine years.
01:17:01 It sounds honestly like you have been all over the map, and I believe we even have an image to prove it, right? Yes, we do. Can you tell us a little bit about that while we pull it up? As a crazy person, I set a goal to travel to every K-Space system in EVE Online, so that started in 2014, and I re-plotted a few systems recently, because sometimes when you go into a system, it doesn't actually show on the map.
01:17:30 So, at this state, I'm pretty sure I have traveled to every system in EVE Online, K-Space.
01:17:39 Jetzt müssen wir alle Wormhole-Systeme in den Wormhole-Systemen und die aus dem Weg gehen. Easy peasy, right? Ja, right. Es sieht wirklich cool aus dem Map, zu sehen, wo du viel bist, und wo du viel bist, und wo du vielleicht noch nicht mehr bist, aber du bist. Wenn du sagen willst, welchen Bereich in Yves du hast, die du in der Least-Experience in hast. Und wir nicht sagen, wie eine Art in der Game ist, also nicht Null-Sack, High-Sack, oder Low-Sack, sondern eher eine Art von Gameplay.
01:18:08 Honestly, it's still going to be wormholes. I've been able to interact with a lot of people that live in wormholes over the past few weeks, but I've never lived in there. I don't know what it's like to get the blue goo from the sites and have to bring it to the agents in HiSec. So wormholes is my weakness, but I still plan on representing people in wormholes.
01:18:33 Good thing you're not farming a CSM all by yourself. You'll have 11 other members with you if you make it onto the CSM. And if you had to pick one of them, who would that be?
01:18:46 Ja, so I gave that a bit of thought. Honestly, it's going to have to be Cashal. She's really trying to drive more player engagement, getting people to undock, and that really blends well to one of the things of my platform, is to really get players to engage more with the game. So I would love to work with her, and I think there would be a really good synergy.
01:19:12 Nice, yeah. We've seen Kashal have some great synergy previously on CSM-18 with some of the more PvP-oriented folk from all over different areas of space. It's so funny to see how applicable different specialties are to different areas of space, just with a little bit of extra context from subject matter experts in certain spots.
01:19:37 Speaking of which, a huge element to being on the CSM is being able to chat with players, not only about what's going on in the CSM, because obviously they'll want to know, but also kind of getting ideas from them. And once you're on the CSM, we...
01:19:55 We show you everything, right? For better or worse, you know what's coming down the pipeline for the next two or three expansions, which creates like this great system where you can kind of reach out to people that you've met along the way to kind of pick their brains about stuff. So should you be elected to the CSM, how do you see that working out for you? How do you look to manage the communication pathways?
01:20:20 So, from my perspective, I'm going to do with what I'm comfortable with right now, which is the in-game conversations, the Discord chats, the calls on TeamSpeak. But ultimately, what I'd want to be able to do is interact with the other CSM candidates and see if there's like a central point of communication to make it easier for everyone to kind of integrate with. So, basically, I'm flexible with what that looks like in the future.
01:20:49 Right on, yeah. Flexibility can be very key because, you know, you have all these plans laid out in your head and then it turns out it's going to be a little bit different than how you imagined it. So you've got to be able to kind of adapt on the fly.
CSM-Kandidat Janstina und Erthodar über Zeitmanagement und Erfahrung
01:21:03
01:21:03 Speaking of which, you mentioned you do some FCing. You've done leading some campaigns, quite a lot of teaching. You're super active in EVE. But being on CSM, we know it can take a chunk of time away from you. So how do you see yourself balancing the CSM commitments, being able to communicate with people, being able to chat with CCP, and all the stuff that's going on in your real life and EVE Online stuff?
01:21:30 I mean, being on CSM is obviously a huge commitment. It's been talked about that it's like 20, 30 hours a week. I wanted to do CSM in the past, never could due to my commitments outside of EVE. So to explain that better, I used to have a little pager attached to me. Anytime that thing went off, I had to drop everything and go respond to it for seven years. That commitment is done with. Now I want to fill that void. Now I want to be a part of EVE.
01:21:58 und helfen die Universität, die wir alle lieben. Ich würde wirklich gerne eine CSN Beeper-System geben. Same, man, same. Das ist so fun. Es ist wirklich gut. Wir haben nichts, das ist ever wie ein Leben oder Leben wichtig, aber ich möchte Beeper-System geben. Ich werde das einstellen.
01:22:20 Oh, no, more notes. Anyway, so we are coming up to the end of your interview, but we talked about this a little bit before we went live. Are you going to be in any other places? Where can people learn more about you? Oh, yeah, so I did my first podcast ever in my existence on Friday on Declarations of War, a podcast that I love listening to on my very long drives. I was very spicy in that, so enjoy that if you go to watch it.
01:22:49 Aber ich werde eine mehr neutraler Tone, eine mehr relaxinger Tone kommen mit Kachau later in der Woche. Und es gibt vielleicht noch mehr auf den Weg, so ich freue mich auf das. Ich möchte das den Declarations of War Podcast. Die Declarations of War ist eine der... Actually, es ist die Longest EVE Online Podcast. Alec hat schon mal auf CSN, als auch. Der Host, ich glaube, er hat schon seit...
01:23:13 He's been on two CSM, CSM 4, and my brain fails me for the other ones, but very, very much invested in the CSM election process. We appreciate everyone in the community who does stuff like that. And it's great to hear that you're going to be on some other podcasts as well. It's so cool to be able to get to know you a little bit better, because as Lumi was saying, these 10 minutes go by so, so quickly.
01:23:37 But before we say goodbye, is there anything that we haven't chatted about that you really wanted to talk about or let people know? Yeah, there's not enough time to say it all, but my value proposition to the player base is that I think I can interact with CCP.
01:23:54 in a way that most CSM candidates can't, because I actually have some time in game development. So I actually want to kind of leverage that experience of level design, asset creation, and kind of help to grow the game in a way that potentially other members can't. I really want to drive meaningful connections and to create better content for all regions of space. So ultimately, a vote for Janstina and Erthodar.
01:24:22 ist für bessere Möglichkeiten in der Spiel. Great, das war sehr gut, sehr gut, sehr gut, sehr gut. Ich liebe es, es könnte auf einem Comic.
01:24:35 Vielen Dank, Jen. Wir sehen uns noch mehr über Ihre Worte, und zu den Declarations of War podcast. Aber wir sind aus dem Zeitpunkt. Vielen Dank für alles, aber nicht so viel zu tun. Wenn Sie sich nicht an, wenn Sie sich nicht an, wenn Sie an, wenn Sie an, wenn Sie an, wenn Sie an, wenn Sie an, wenn Sie an, wenn Sie an, wenn Sie an, wenn Sie an, wenn Sie an, wenn Sie an, wenn Sie an, wenn Sie an, wenn Sie an, wenn Sie an, wenn Sie an, wenn Sie an, wenn Sie an.
Machiavellian: Nullsec-Expertise und kommunikative Stärken
01:30:49
01:30:49 Welcome back, everyone. This is CCP Swift, joined with CCP Lumi, and we've got Machiavellian here to talk about his CSM20 campaign. Machiavellian, how are you doing, man? I'm doing well. I've finally recovered from Vegas. I feel like I need a vacation after eVegas to recover from eVegas. But I'm back, I'm here, and I'm ready to talk to you guys today.
01:31:14 I'm fairly sure this is true for all EVE meets anyone can go to. Everyone needs a break after that. Not a break from EVE though, just a break from people. Oh no, I had to get back to EVE immediately. Exactly. So, tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you do in EVE?
01:31:31 Well, I mean, I started EVE about 19 years ago. And like most players who started back at the beginning, I've had some off and on periods. But my primary focus throughout my entire EVE career has been in NullSec. You know, about 18 years ago, I realized that, you know, you can mind Zydrine out in NullSec. I had no idea the politics or anything that was going on back then. So I packed everything I owned into an Iteran Mark I and beelined out towards Declan.
01:32:00 Und ich habe mich in der NullSec gekauft. Aber sie hat mich in der NullSec. Und das war der Start der NullSec. Ich habe mich zurückgebracht, gewinnen EVE, gewinnen EVE. Aber drei oder vier Jahre später, ich kam zurück. Vielleicht habe ich endlich die Erfahrung und die Maturität, die ich wirklich enjoy, die complexities der EVE. So, ich bin Pandemic Hoard.
01:32:30 und endlich gefunden, mein Video Game Home, so zu sprechen. Ich habe viele Möglichkeiten mit Horde. Ich bin ein Home Defense Fleet Commander. Ich bin ein Capital Protection Umbrella Fleet Commander. Ich bin ein Administrator für die Alliance. Aber wahrscheinlich mein größtes oder größtes Achievement mit Horde ist die Part der Newbeam-Initiative, die es in unseren Efforts zu helfen.
01:32:57 So, if you had to pick something that would be your area of least experience in EVE, what would that be?
01:33:24 Probably wormhole space. It's scary. It's complicated. I try to... I'm always telling my fleet members in Pancrab that they need to roll their wormholes because scary things come out of them. And as far as gameplay styles, though, industry is something that I haven't really dabbled with since back when minerals were the only thing that you needed to craft or to manufacture stuff. But those weaknesses I make up for by...
01:33:54 Willing to listen and turn to subject matter experts and people who actually do engage in those types of gameplay to hear what they have and learn from them. So if you had to explain your communication style with your player base and your voters, how do you approach them? How do you get their support?
01:34:16 Well, I mean, as far as getting hold of me, I'm primarily available through Discord. You can obviously contact me in-game, shoot me an email in-game, but I'm open to anybody approaching me. In Vegas, I talked with several people, some very passionate people in person. You can contact me on Discord, and I'm happy to discuss. I think that's one of my better...
01:34:44 ist, approachability. I'm willing to talk to anybody. I don't care if you're a goon or an init or in some other group. I'm willing to talk to you. I'm willing to hear you out and willing to flesh out ideas that might be really good for the game and for the whole player base. Right on. And I can attest to that, having been at Eve Vegas with Susby Trash Panda.
01:35:07 Ich habe noch ein paar Wochen zurückgekehrt, aber es war cool zu sehen, dass die CSM-Campagne haben. Wir hatten YoungPuke2 in Attendance, die jetzt auf der CSM ist, und AlcoholicSatan, die jetzt auf der CSM ist. Wir hatten alle Leute in der CSM-Cycle, wie ein Former-Member, ein Current-Member, ein Running-For-CSM-20-Member. Es war wirklich, wirklich cool zu sehen, alle die Leute in einem Ort.
01:35:36 But kind of on that end, you've talked about some of the great experience you have in EVE Online and how it goes way back. Why now? What's compelled you or inspired you, I should say, to throw your hat in the ring for CSM20?
01:35:52 Well, I mean, I finally have both the in-game and real-world stability and experience where, you know, I can basically step away from some of my roles that I have with the Alliance. And, you know, I have the free time now to be able to engage with the CSM process, to engage with other members and, you know, really work with the community.
01:36:20 Und ich denke, dass wir in eine wirklich gute Zeit in New Eden sind. Wir haben zwei major wars, die Gune vs. Horde war. Und dann mit der kick-off der Frat- und Init-Conflikt. Ich denke, diese sind great Möglichkeiten, zu gather Informationen und Details in order zu betteren den Game und zu geben fleshed-out Informationen für CCP zu turnen zurück in die Game Design decisions.
01:36:50 Und mit meiner Rolle, ich bekomme viel von der Horde, aber ich bin auch bereit zu hören von allen anderen Gruppen, von den anderen Gruppen, die in diesen Konflikten sind. Weil es werden zu werden frustrations auf beiden Seiten gibt. Ja, das ist wahrscheinlich eine der, von der, von der, von der, von EVE Online, ohne eine doubt.
01:37:12 You touched on this a little bit with different communication and stuff like that, but you do a lot in EVE Online. You're talking about things you do with the New Bean Initiative, helping new players out, pan-crab stuff. Being on the CSM, as maybe Alcoholic Satan and others might have been able to attest, can be a really big time commitment. How do you see yourself kind of balancing the requirements of being on the CSM?
01:37:39 Both the primary requirements, like showing up to a meeting one hour a week, but also the secondary elements of just answering questions from people, chatting to people, being around, getting your DMs blown up from people. How do you see yourself managing that extra time drain?
01:37:58 Well, I mean, I don't really see it as a time drain. I think that kind of paints it in a negative light because I enjoy talking to people and I enjoy, you know, the repartee and fleshing out ideas with people. And I think that my realistically, I don't think it's going to change the amount of communication. I think it's going to change the tone and.
01:38:20 um the type of communication that i receive from other players so you know i i'm already terminally online my fiance can attest that um i'm probably on my phone way too much already on discord and talking to people and uh you know playing uh spaceship simulator online as she likes to call it um but um
01:38:42 Ja, ich denke, ich habe keine Probleme mit dem. Meine Rolle in den Allianz ist bereits eine große Kommunikation. Ich bin bereits sehr aktiv in den Allianz. Und ich bin froh, mit jemanden in den anderen Gruppen, um zu arbeiten mit dem, auf die Probleme zu den ganzen Spielern. Right on. Das Sounds great.
01:39:03 We are kind of running out of time here and I want to take at least a little moment for my favorite question in this entire list that we've got and we asked you guys, can you describe yourself in three words?
01:39:18 Ich würde sagen, das waren meine drei words. Ich bin ein Listener, Advocate und ich bin Reasonable. So Listener, Advocate und Reasonable. In real life, in my real life work, I'm an Advocate. I'm no longer a Litigator, but I represent clients and have to deal with all sorts of issues like this as an attorney. And I see those skills as...
01:39:45 sehr wichtig für den CSM, denn das ist wirklich was die Rolle der Repräsentation der CSM ist. Es ist, wie wir advocate für positive Veränderungen für die Spieler. Das ist nicht so obvious, von der Perspektive der Developer.
01:40:01 Find a nickel for every lawyer CSM. Oh my gosh, there's more of them? I wouldn't have that many nickels, but a surprising amount of nickels. I don't know what it is with lawyers and EVE Online. There seems to be a fun overlap there. We're bad at math, which seems to be an issue, but I guess we're good at arguing. Yeah, you just yell at the market and it'll fix itself. That's what I do all the time.
01:40:27 If you yell loud enough, nobody is going to notice that the numbers are wrong. Lumi knows what's out. If only that works. But I appreciate the chat, Machiavellian. It's blown by. It's really crazy how fast these interviews go. But before we send you off, are you going to be anywhere else chatting about your candidacy that players might be able to learn a little bit more about?
01:40:53 I plan on having at least one Town Hall for Horde through our services, but I'm happy to meet with anybody. I'm reaching out to some folks to do some interviews. I haven't really locked anything down yet, but ultimately I want to be accessible and easy to communicate with. So if you want to connect with me on Discord, you can get to me through the EVE Online Discord. Machiavellian is my name there. Feel free to shoot me a DM. I'm happy to talk with anybody.
01:41:23 Right on, man. Well, I appreciate you taking the time to chat with us today. Really looking forward to the rest of the campaign. For those watching at home, don't go anywhere. We'll be back in just a couple of minutes with our next candidate. And yeah, thanks again, man. Yep.
Rose Alari-Imahara: Neue Perspektiven für New Eden
01:45:28
01:45:28 Welcome back, everyone. We're officially halfway through this block of CSM interviews, part five already, after a whole weekend. We're still not out of candidates, though, so let's talk to Rose Alari-Imahara. Rose, hello. Hello, everybody. How are you doing? You know, I actually managed to have coffee this morning, so I will take that as a win.
01:45:54 Sounds great to me. Coffee does keep us awake. So tell us a little bit about yourself. Who are you and what is your background with Yves? So I'm a little bit of a new player. I don't have quite the historied pedigrees of people who've been here for...
01:46:13 2007, so forth. I actually just started last year in July. Went from a highsec scam corp to nullsec. And now I proceed to teach new players in a variety of different places, both highsec, nullsec, lowsec wormholes, etc.
01:46:38 Really try to connect to the new player community and be a supportive way there to help keep and retain as many of those new players as possible. Right on, that's amazing. So you're probably one of the character youngest CSM candidates that we've had in quite some time. So what's inspired you to throw your hat to the ring for CSM20?
01:47:06 Part of this kind of also relates to the game. Without having new players bring new blood and new ideas, and how do we encourage and bring that? Because sometimes new players may think of things that, and I hate to use the term old bitter bets, but new players may have ideas that older players who've been in the game may go, you know, look.
01:47:32 Warum nicht ich denke, dass wir eine andere Idee haben? Und versuchen, von einer anderen Perspektive zu denken, kann etwas Leben in die Dinge bringen. Ich hoffe, dass ich ein paar Erfahrungen zu hören, von vielen neuen Spielern, auf jeden Fall. Ich arbeite gerade für die Universität. Ich arbeite etwa 10-15 Stunden pro Woche auf ein paar Sprachen.
01:48:00 I get questions that sometimes make me go, okay, I didn't think about it this way. What if we applied that to the rest of the game? So that's kind of why I'm throwing my hat in. Right on, that's super cool. I like it. Yeah. So as a newer EVE player and also new to the CSM candidacy process, can you talk us through what you think the role of the CSM is? So...
01:48:26 CSM is very much how, it's like a focus group almost. You're taking players, players are getting voted in from different areas of space supported by different groups in space to go, hey, you know, there's 10, 12 people here. Let's have a tiny hyper focus group and have that be how the players can kind of communicate, you know, hey, maybe
01:48:54 This is a big enough issue that it needs to be brought before CCP or CCP can kind of go. Just bouncing ideas off, making sure nothing goes hopefully too off the rails. But I definitely view it as more of a focus group. Anybody coming in and stating, you know, hey, I'm going for this. I don't see that as productive because it's a focus group. We are there to provide just feedback and information.
01:49:26 Ja, genau. Die CSM hat ein paar coolen Rollen in was sie machen. Credit für die CSM von den letzten Jahren, wie lange ich denke. Going back, hat es auch sehr produktiv. Even Leute auf der CSM, die sich in die Tür mit ihnen so gut at dropping die Baggage auf die Tür und einfach so, dass das in die Game ist. Aber aus der Game ist, wir alle versuchen zu machen.
01:49:52 Es ist sehr, sehr gut, dass das die Attitude die Leute nehmen. Und Sie sind richtig, dass extra Diversität und extra, um, uh, just, knowledge bases, um, zu tapen auf das ESM ist super, super helpful für uns, uh, especially, wenn wir uns für, um, verschiedene Projekte, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge, Dinge.
01:50:19 You chatted about this already a little bit, but being on the CSM, to be an effective CSM requires a lot of communication. How do you see yourself setting up those lines of communication for people who voted for you or just people who are interested in the CSM as a whole?
01:50:39 So, there's tons of ways to communicate me. I am active, at least sitting at my desk, logged into EVE for minimum 14 hours a day. If I'm not there...
01:50:51 Ich habe Discord auf mein Telefonn. Ich habe schon mal drei Uhr in der Morgen sitzen mit Discord, weil die Leute sagen, hey Rose, fix a problem, do das. Rose, do das. Und es ist okay, okay, okay. Ich habe nicht gemerkt, aber ich werde es tun. Und ich sehr viel pride mich auf, dass ich mir accessible bin, be es durch, dass du mich in Discord reach out, auf meine Stream, be es mit einem E-Mail,
01:51:22 Ich bin fully... Ich habe mich nicht mehr Zeit, um mich zu haben, um Zeit zu tun, und um Zeit zu tun, um Zeit zu tun, um EVE zu tun, um EVE zu tun. Das ist definitiv eine Passion für mich.
01:51:40 Ich denke, dass ich sehr in die Möglichkeit bin, dass es, hey, da gibt es viele Möglichkeiten, und ich denke, in etwa 24 Stunden. So, definitiv, die Leute können immer wieder aufhören, wenn sie sagen, hey, Rose, ich möchte zu sprechen. Shoot mir eine Discord, es ist immer wieder. Du hast du kurz erwähnt, kannst du uns ein bisschen über das? Hast du auch über CSM gesprochen?
01:52:07 Ich habe, um, so between both myself using it as a way that I can learn, because people teach me there too, like, okay, I am mainly PvP, uh, I do a little bit of routing, but recently I learned how to do X-Flow, and it was great, and having, now, okay.
01:52:31 Ich weiß, dass ich es. Ich lerne, wie ich es. Ich lerne, wie ich es. Aber ich lerne, wie ich es. Wenn du in den Neubro tutorial hast, wenn du in den Neubro tutorial hast, gibt es vieles und Video-Watting. Es gibt keine Ahnung, dass du ein Charakter hast. Es ist einfach, dass du das... Personally, das ist ein Problem, dass ich mit dem Tutorial habe. Aber, um... Other than that, ich habe, dass Leute einfach, A, teach mich etwas.
01:53:00 Ich liebe es. Ich kann sagen, hey, wenn du eine Tactical Overlay hast, das orange ist Celestial North. Ja, ich bin ein Fan von Menschen, von Leuten, von Leuten, von Leuten, von Leuten, von Leuten, von Leuten, von Leuten, von Leuten, von Leuten, von Leuten, von Leuten, von Leuten, von Leuten, von Leuten, von Leuten, von Leuten, von Leuten, Leute, Leute, Leute, Leute, Leute, Leute.
01:53:27 Ja, wir haben Space North in Yves, wenn jemand nicht wissen, dass sie jetzt wissen. Sie sind jetzt. Diese Interviews gehen so schnell, und wir sind immer sehr froh, dass diese Gespräche mit Leuten zu wissen. Aber wenn Leute wissen, können Sie einfach ein bisschen mehr wissen, können Sie die Twitch streamen, wo sie finden Sie? Ja, so, uh, ich will actually X up in Chat.
01:53:55 My Twitch stream is Khaleesi. You can hop in there. Yes, it doesn't match my in-game name. I'm sorry for people who are like, Rose, make it match. No, I'm sorry.
01:54:09 Aber absolut fühle free und schreit. Ich bin nicht unterstützt von meinem Allianz. Ich bin bei mir selbst. Und zu können, weil wir neue Spieler haben, habe ich gehört, zwischen 7 bis 90 bis 7 und 90 bis zu können. Und zu können, dass wir die Care geben und sagen, hey, ich weiß, du bist, du bist. Kommt, du bist.
01:54:38 Let's teach you how to play the game. That's super important to me, is to have the new players represented in a way that helps keep the game healthy. Again, without new blood, with the amount of Sinovigils we've seen in the last several years, new players are going to be part of the lifeblood of the game.
01:54:59 Ja, genau. Es ist immer wichtig, um neue Spieler zu holen. Und es ist toll, zu sehen, nicht nur EVE-Universität, sondern auch von euch, von Goon-Universität, von Hölten-Classen, um die Leute zu finden, um die besten Fähigkeiten zu spielen, und zu fragen, dass sie ihre Fragen zu spielen. Weil ja, EVE ist ein super hartes Spiel. Wir alle erinnern die ersten paar Stunden oder ersten paar Tage in der Spiel.
01:55:24 Some of us probably rage quit the first few times, but it's a testament to people willing to put time out of their day to make sure that there's help for people who want to participate in this crazy space game we call EVE Online.
01:55:39 Exactly. Right on. Well, thanks so much, Rose. Really appreciate the chat today. And again, make sure to follow her in Twitch chat if you want to just tune in a little bit more to get some more in-depth chats and insights into what makes Rose tick. Yeah, thank you for having me, guys. Right on. So it seems to be Lumi and I will be back in just a couple of minutes with our next candidate. Again, Rose, thanks so much. And don't go anywhere if you're watching at home. We'll be right back.
Captain Tiberius: Kampf gegen Stagnation und Skin-Freiheit
02:01:50
02:01:50 Welcome back, everyone. We're still going strong with CSM20 interviews, and right now we have got Captain Tiberius with us. Can you introduce yourself, please? Who are you and what is your background in EVE? Yes, hello. So my name is Captain Tiberius. I am the brand manager for Dark Venture Corporation. It's not a title I intended to achieve, it just kind of happened that way.
02:02:13 This is technically my third character that I've created in EVE. The first one I created when I was 18, I remember mining Veldspar while doing homework. That's about what I remember from that character. The second time I joined up with the second character, his name was Skrike Tiberius, that one I do remember. That one was with my now current fiance. She was the one who taught me quite a bit about the game. And at the time I didn't appreciate it. As I got older I started to really appreciate it more.
02:02:43 Und ich habe die Account Information zu dem Charakter. So jetzt habe ich meine 3rd Charakter, Captain Tiberius, in reference zu James T. Kirk und Tiberium, denn ich liebe Command & Conquer. So, ja. Ich habe angefangen mit einem meiner Freund in California an zu spielen, weil er nicht wusste wie es. Mein Fianca hat mich all über Jetta Trade Hubs und wie Fleet Warping gearbeitet und die Basis des Spiels.
02:03:11 Eine Sache ist, dass sie mich in eine Wormhole gemacht hat. Es war eine horrible Erfahrung für mich zuerst. Ich habe nicht gewusst, wir waren aus einem POS. Wir wurden von drei Dreads getötet. Es war nicht so, und es macht mich quit. Und dann habe ich diese Charakter gemacht. Ich war ein HighSec Miner, teaching mein Freund zu mine und zu tun. Das war während der Trigg Invasion.
02:03:36 I remember losing all of my worldly possessions to Triggs, because I, you know, like everybody else, I ignored the warning on the gate that said, hey, if you warp in here, you idiot, you're going to get blown up. Well, yeah, I got blown up in a Thrasher, and lost all my stuff, and got really mad, and decided to go take revenge on the Triggs. And so, yeah, and so, you know, and then, what was it, Silent Company? That was the corporation I was with, the high-sick miners. They decided to lead fleets against the Triggs, which tanked my standing.
02:04:03 Und dann Scarcity kam aus, ich war unhappig mit Scarcity, weil es zu tun hat, was ich was zu tun, was ich was eventually zu bauen Battleships, ich war mein Weg zu Battlecruisers, und dann Scarcity kam, da war kein Noxium, und ich bin angry, und dann kam ich zurück, und dann kam ich nach ein paar Jahren zurück, und dann habe ich versucht, wo ich war, habe ich das Gandalf gedacht, wo ich bin? Ich habe hier noch nie gehört, ich habe hier noch nie gehört, ich habe hier noch nie gehört, ich habe hier noch nie gehört.
02:04:27 So I said, oh yeah, that's right. I have to go rejoin the mining fleet. And Silent Company decided to move the mining fleet in high sec in a trig miner victory system where the trig were present. So I couldn't mine there. So I had to go to Potchman to fix my standing. Enter the gators from DKVC. They found me butt-hugging a broken rat in Potchman. They murdered me. And I was like, oh, thank God, actual human contact. Let's see if these people are cool. And they were cool. They shot me. They recruited me.
02:04:56 Es war ein hart-größter Erfahrung, in meiner Meinung nach. Von CareBear, HighSec Mining, zu Wormhole PVP, wo alles hostile ist und alles möchte, was eine große Veränderung. Hade ich mir gesagt, fünf Jahre lang, dass ich die Brand Manager für die Corporation, die Corporation des Skins wäre, würde ich mich auf den Fass. Aber das ist die Wahrheit. Das ist das, was passiert.
02:05:21 I now also am one of the lead Skyhook Raid FCs. It's not a formal position, it's just I'm the one who sees the NullSec holes and I'm like, hey, there's targets there, there's money out there, let's go get it. And that's where my impulsivity comes into full swing. It's just like, because you have to be impulsive, because the raids, there's only a three hour window. So it's kind of like crack the whip, get the hookers out there. That's what I call my Skyhookers. They're hookers, we love them, we pay them well.
02:05:48 Und, ihr wisst, wir genießen es. Es ist viel Spaß. Wir steigen viel Geld von NullSec. Ich meine, in den letzten drei Tagen, wir haben 1.5 Bill, mit einem Crew von vielleicht 5-10 Leuten. So, es ist so, die Leute, die nicht machen können, die Leute, die in Hisek sind, die in Hisek sind. Es ist so, die Filament, get yourself a Squall, go find yourself a Skyhook, LinkUp, du kannst es machen, wenn du hast die Energie und die Zeit. Aber, ihr wisst, die Small Gang PVP.
02:06:17 Ich liebe Wormhole Life. Ich liebe die Wormhole Life. Ich liebe die Wormhole-Effekte, die wie es funktioniert. Wormholes sind immer in einem Stade of Flux. Und ich liebe das. Ich liebe das, dass wir nicht ein centralizedes Ding sind. Wir können immer für ein Jettelholen. Wir können immer für ein new SC-3-Holle, und werden die Content, die wir wollen. Wir müssen die PVP, die wir wollen. Wir müssen uns einfach nur finden. Das ist die erste Sache. People sagen, oh, es ist kein PVP in EVE. No, es ist einfach nur, wir müssen uns einfach nur in deinem Scanning-Ship und finden es. Go find es. Go find the enemy. Go kill them.
02:06:45 You have the most amazing story, honestly. This is great. So, but to get things on track for your CSM interview, because we are leasing my Insta Super Shorts and I don't want to run out of time. Can you tell us a bit about the topics you're running on? Yeah, so the big topic is Skinner changes. Skinner patterns need to be unlimited. There's a very specific pattern for the corporation that I would like to have.
02:07:14 Wir sind nicht die Unlimited-Pattern, wir können nicht die Quote-Unquote-Chompy-Skin-Line machen. Ich kenne es das, weil meine Jungs sind immer die Bitschrompig zu machen. Und wir sind die Gators, so es ist Gator-Themend. Wir sind die Bilder, die du mit uns gegeben hast. Okay, sure. In case du wolltest du dir eine Gedanken mit dem, als wir sie haben. Absolut. Ich kann nur, ich sehe deine Gesichter jetzt. Wir sind in der Hurricane.
02:07:43 Okay, so that one is the very first concept design that I ever made. It never got printed. I know it looks terrible. This was a technology test to show people in the Alliance what Skinner could do, the different effects that it could do. It looks horrible. I won't lie to you, right? It looks absolutely crap.
02:08:02 But it was just a way to show people this is what can be done with the technology that's been given us. I am not a graphics design artist in any capacity. I'm a writer. So the fact that I'm the brand manager and I'm making art in a video game is really kind of cool to me. I have zero artistic experience whatsoever. I can barely draw freaking stickmen. I'm not even kidding you. My handwriting is horrible. I have no artistic ability whatsoever except in EVE. And that's kind of weird to me.
02:08:30 Alright, but Skinner's not the only topic you're running on. No, it's not. Skinner's not the only topic I'm running on. Stagnation and NullSec. It needs to be addressed. It's just like this concept that they get to have all of these generators that give them, you know, like the Relic anomalies, the Combat anomalies, the Mining anomalies that they want. It's kind of ridiculous. It's like I kind of view that NullSec should be in a state of conflict. It is not.
02:08:58 Es hat sich in einem Stagnanzen, almost wie World War I, wo jeder hat ihre Trenches und niemand machte einen Anwurs. Und es gibt all diese Fake Gentlemen's Agreements, wo es sich, okay, ja, wir hatten ein Fleet, okay, gut, aber nichts eigentlich verändert. Das ist, wie ich die Skyhook Raid so viel, ist, was wir machen, ist, dass wir die Beating Heart von NullSec, der Infrastruktur, wir steigen es, und in some cases, sie sind eigentlich von uns.
02:09:24 I've seen that happen on the Marketplace. Literally after a raid, I'd go take my 500 mil worth of Skyhook loot, and then people, I think it was Tusker's Alliance, I think? I can't remember, it was like two years ago. But they ended up buying it back within 30 minutes of me listing it. So it's just like, I view raiding Skyhooks as a way to destabilize NullSec to actually get them to defend their space, because as a wormholer, if we don't defend our hull, if we lose hull control, if we lose our structures, that's it.
02:09:52 Wir haben eine Systeme zu defend. NullSec hat 100er. Und sie haben viel zu viel. Sie haben viel zu viel, was sie haben. Und so sie sind nicht der Hooks. Und so, wenn sie nicht der Hooks sind, dann werde ich von ihnen nehmen.
02:10:09 All right, so plenty of things for you to talk about on your CSM campaign. Unfortunately, though, we are kind of out of time already. I told you it flies by super fast, but if you have to put it down, where can people find you to learn more about you? You can DM me in-game, Captain Tiberius. It's just like, that's the easiest way to get a hold of me.
02:10:31 Ja, Captain S-Hole. Ja, Captain S-Hole. Das ist ein Joke von den Warhammer 40k-Tag. Ich verstehe. Aber ja, es ist einfach so, dass meine whole campaign ist auf Anti-Stagnation, Pro-PVP, mehr Ships in Space. Ich möchte mehr Menschen in Space, mehr Menschen in Space, fighten sich. Das ist was ich. Das ist was Everybody. Das ist was EVE ist über. Und wir müssen auch get Walking in Stations zurück. Und ich denke, das wäre ein tolles Beispiel für die Lore, weil ich nicht mehr über die Lore weiß.
02:11:00 The best way to get people interacting with the lore is to make them actually physically view it. I want to gamble on ships like Han Solo. Can't tell me no nerd wants that. Every nerd wants that. Real quick, who shot first? Who shot first? Doesn't matter who shot first, because Han Solo's a badass. Han Solo's the man. I don't care. Doesn't matter, right or wrong, Han Solo was the hero of the fucking rebellion. You can't tell me otherwise.
02:11:31 Ich kann, du bist. Ein paar Dinge, die ich aus dem Tiberius habe. Ich bin Captain Tiberius, bin ich von ihm, bin ich von ihm, bin ich von ihm, und ich bin Han Solo. Ja, und wenn jemand einen Skinner-Skiner-Klasse oder einen NPSI-Sky-Hooking-Fleet mit mir ist, DM mir in Game. Wir werden es tun. Ich werde es tun. Das ist was wir über. DKVC ist ein Nubro-Korporation und wir freuen uns. Ich will shut up jetzt. Danke für die Zeit. Danke für die Zeit.
02:11:59 Vielen Dank.
Kandidat Italien: Wissenschaftlicher Ansatz für CSM-Diversität
02:15:55
02:15:55 Wir haben Italien mit uns heute. Ich hoffe, ich habe das richtig gemacht. Wenn nicht, bin ich sehr sorry. Ich habe mich sehr gut gemacht. Ich habe Italien. Kannst du uns ein bisschen darüber erzählen? Wer bist du und was du in Yves? Ja, absolut. Vielen Dank für mich. Es ist toll zu sehen. Das ist wahrscheinlich auch die besten Teil der CSN-Campagne. Ich bin Italien.
02:16:23 Ich habe seit 2007 gespielt, und ich bin ein Small Gang PvP-Leer. Das ist wirklich was ich mich interessiert, und das ist was ich hoffe, dass ich das CSM bringe. Es ist nicht deinem ersten Mal für CSM. Kannst du uns ein bisschen darüber, warum du in der Ring wieder puttest?
02:16:40 Ja, absolut. So, wie du gesagt, ich habe das letzte Jahr und sehr nahe gemacht. Und seitdem, ich habe viele positive Interaktionen mit den Gemeinschaften, also mit den Leuten, die mich überleiteten, aber auch mit den aktuellen CSM-Numberern. Es gab viele, sehr gute Back-and-Forth-Communikation. Ich ging zum Fan-Test dieses Jahr und hatte Gespräche mit ihr, und all das...
02:17:04 Das war wirklich wert, zu versuchen, und zu sehen, ob wir diese Repräsentation auf den CSM können.
02:17:13 Sounds great, honestly. So, if you had to pick, what constituencies are you representing? I mean, you can't do the whole game, so you gotta pick, right? Right, absolutely. Well, like I said, you know, my primary focus and the people that I want to represent are the small gang PvP players. And the reason that I think that that is really important is because while the small gang community is small, right, it's a small fraction of the player base.
02:17:37 Ich denke, dass wir eine wirklich ausgesichtete impact auf den Spiel. Das sind die Leute, die alle verschiedenen Systemen der Spiel, die presentiert sind in jeder Raum, und die Leute, die instigte Fights sind, die Leute, die die Status Quo, die immer in deinem Raum geben, geben dir einen Grund zu un-Docken.
02:17:59 Right on. And yeah, so you've been playing E for quite some time, doing things that are in small scale. You've run for the CSM before. Part of the, you know, as you, as you, I can speak, I swear, as you've learned from chatting with the CSM and, you know, chatting at FanFest and just kind of being partaking in the ecosystem a little bit more, the CSM can be quite time consuming.
02:18:26 So how do you see yourself kind of balancing that time commitment along with what you do in real life and what you do in game and the things that you like to do, maybe other non-EVE hobbies, if those exist at all. How do you see that balance playing out? Yeah, absolutely. So in real life, I'm a scientist. I'm an astrophysicist. I study comets. And so that allows me to be really lucky in that I can set my own hours and I work from home.
02:18:56 I have tons of flexibility to work with the CSM. Of course, I already spend a lot of time playing EVE, and so I'll be happy to divert a lot of that time to the CSM. And because I can set my own hours and I work from home, I absolutely anticipate being able to make all the meetings, for example, and being able to keep up with those chats.
02:19:15 That is absolutely fascinating. I'm always fascinated to hear about what the CSM candidates do and just E-players in general, what they do in their real lives. It's always something insanely cool. We've got scientists, lawyers, doctors, chefs. It runs the whole gamut of everything. It's just so neat to be able to be like, yeah, that's my spaceship game. It's got scientists in it. So neat.
02:19:43 But again, another part of kind of dovetailing off of this is the communication element. Yes, it can also be time consuming, but it can also be tricky to kind of set up those lines of communication. So how do you plan to communicate with the players who vote for you or just want to hear from you should you be elected to the CSM?
02:20:04 Ja, so, um, like you said, dovetailing off the last thing, um, because I'm a scientist and that's what I'm used to, um, it's important for me to get data, right? If I want to come to you guys and say, hey, I really think this needs to be changed.
02:20:17 Es ist wichtig für mich, dass das nicht nur eine Opinion ist. Ich gehe zu den Spielern, spreche mit den Leuten, die Daten und die Feedback zu bekommen und dann kann ich es in eine Art, hoffentlich sehr komplexe. Und so, über die letzten Jahre, wie ich gesagt habe, habe ich viele gute Gespräche mit der CSM-Members und auch mit der Small-Gang-Community in der Small-Gang-Community. Und ich habe eine Menge Gespräche, und habe viele Gespräche über das Thema. Und ich fühle mich wirklich, wirklich überzeugt, dass ich mich für mich erledigte. Das ist die Kommunikation, die mir helfen würde.
02:20:44 Ich kann mich in-game beobachten, aber natürlich, wie alle anderen, durch Discord. Und ich absolut empfehle mich, dass jemand, der sich in Small Gang PVP hat, oder Fragen von mir, oder vielleicht zwei, beide zwei, um, zu reach out to me auf Discord. Ich bin sehr responsive. Ich bin immer wieder auf meine Messages.
02:21:05 Super cool. So, you already mentioned that you've talked a little bit to current CSM members. As you all know, you're not the only one running for CSM. We've got 55 other candidates vying for everyone's attention. If you had to pick someone you could serve with on the CSM, and I'm just gonna eliminate current CSM19, because I know you've been talking to them. If you had to pick anyone but them, who would you like to serve with most?
02:21:30 So with the qualification, as you said, that I have been talking to current CSM90 members and there are a couple that I absolutely would pick if you didn't disqualify them. I think someone you had on earlier today actually was really interesting. Limited Liability, bit of an outsider candidate, but of course runs a very large YouTube channel in their personal life. And I think that's a really interesting opportunity for the CSM, right? We have a few...
02:21:55 EVE Content Creators that are running this year. And that's really, really cool. But the reach of those creators is, you know, pretty much within our community still, right? EVE is a little bit of a niche game and Limited Liability, if I'm not mistaken, has about, I think, 3 million subscribers on YouTube. And so his reach is really unique among all the candidates. And so I would be really interested in seeing what that could bring to the CSM. That'd be really cool.
02:22:22 Ja, ich war kind of abhängig, wenn er kam, er hat gesagt, dass er das auf-camera gesagt hat, dass er nicht eine Chance hat, dass er hinter ihm eine Chance hat, aber da war ein paar YouTube-Plaques. Ich sah das, ich habe es das Morgen. Ja, das Subtle flecks der YouTube-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue-Plaue
02:22:43 Right on. And you've got a little bit of insight kind of going through this process now with the CSM. One question that I love to ask, or that we love to ask rather, is if you had the ability to change anything about the CSM as an institution to kind of make it better and facilitate better communication or better organization, is there anything that you would change? And if so, what would it be?
02:23:07 Ja. Die erste Sache, die sich sofort zu mindern, ist, dass die Zahl der Leute, die ihr euch wählt. Ich denke, dass, jetzt, dass du das jetzt schon ein bisschen gemacht hast, dass es sehr, sehr klar ist, dass es sehr, sehr gut ist. Die Sache über EVE ist, dass, besser oder besser, ich will nicht sagen, dass das, aber ein großer Prozent der Spieler, der Voting-Player in diesem Fall,
02:23:29 sind in der Single-Play-Style, das ist die Null-Block-Game-Play. Und da ist nichts eigentlich falsch mit dem, aber es bedeutet, dass EVE hat eine große Diversität in Play-Styles, es ist nicht oftmals auf der CSM-Style verwendet. Und so, bei den Leuten zu wählen, du immer aus den Top 20 auswählst. Das ensures, dass diese Leute die Vettel sind und die Gemeinschaft verwendet und verwendet werden. Und zu den Top 20 in CSM-Elektions ist nichts.
02:23:53 So, however you want to do this, if you were to just increase the number of selectees, or perhaps even decrease the number of elected spots, from 10 to 8 or something like that, or 9 maybe even, and then add one or two more selectees, I think that that would go a long way to increasing the diversity of the CSM. And I think over the last year, I've listened to everyone's podcasts and everyone's interviews you guys have done here, read all the forum threads, and I think it's no coincidence that...
02:24:19 die zwei Leute, die meistens kommen, wenn sie gefragt haben, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde, wer würde.
02:24:38 Ja, das ist ein wirklich cooles Ding. Und wenn wir einfach mal kurz sehen, wer CCP in CSM 18 wählt, ist Kaschel Aderon, eine andere Name, die sehr freundlich kommt. Und Stich Kaelin hat eine Tremendous-Impact, auch nach dem CSM-Term. Absolut. Ja. Ja. Wir sind, leider, bereits am Ende der Interview wieder.
Abschluss des ersten Interviews
02:25:07
02:25:07 I know we wish we could have more time, but then we can't fit all these interviews into one weekend. But for now, very last question for me, at least. Can you describe yourself in three words? Well, if I'm being trite, I suppose small gang, PvP, candidate. That works. I like when people track me with this.
02:25:31 Before we say goodbye, if anyone wants to know a little bit more about you as a candidate, are you appearing on any other podcasts or talk shows or anything like that, or have you?
02:25:42 Ja, so I've been on Declarations of War, the Phantomite and Red Lines Podcast. I've been on the, sorry, excuse me, Untethered Phantomites Podcast. I've also been on Declarations of War. I don't know if that one's quite out yet, but it should be out soon. And I will update my CSM forum thread with these links when they're live, so feel free to check in there. And I'm also sitting down to have a chat, like everyone else is, with Kashal later on, I think later this week, or next week, I guess.
02:26:06 So feel free to look there. But of course, if you have any questions, if you want to understand how I feel about something, you can always reach out to me on Discord.
02:26:13 Right on. Well, we appreciate you taking the time to chat with us today. These things are always so insightful and so much fun to get to know some candidates a little bit better than we knew previously. So I really appreciate the time. Looking forward to the rest of the campaign. And if you're watching at home, don't go anywhere. We're not done yet. We've still got four or five candidates left. So just sit back, relax, get some Twitch drops, and we'll be back in just a couple minutes.
Vorstellung von Angard
02:30:16
02:30:16 Welcome back, everyone. I'm still here with CCP Swift, running the CSM interviews and we'll be going for at least 45 more minutes. So stay tuned for more. For now, we have Angard from Podemic Horde. Can you please introduce yourself and tell us what your background is in EVE?
02:30:34 Ja, so, uh, hi, I'm on guard, I'm, uh, Strat FC in Pandemic Horde at the moment, that's my, that's the big thing I do at present, uh, my EVE history has been kind of long and a bit roundabout, I started out, and I think, like many other people, I quit basically instantly, I didn't really understand what was going on, and then a couple months later I got really, really bored, picked the game up again, joined Pandemic Horde, and, uh, then the rest of the history was my game, my...
02:31:03 EVE Korea. Ich habe F.C. in der Fountain-Kampagne, als wir in der Fountain-Kampagne waren. Wir alle wissen wie das ging. Und dann, nach dem Ende der Delve-War, nachdem ich alles rausgebracht habe, habe ich, kam ein bisschen mit Volta, mit Top Damage Ltd. Spendte ein paar Zeit in Volta, habe ich gelernt, wie mit Medium-Scale und Small-Scale-Gameplay gemacht.
02:31:31 Ich habe das NullSec für ein bisschen geholfen, dann habe ich dann auch die NullSec gesucht, dann habe ich dann auch die NullSec gesucht. Dann habe ich dann auch die NullSec gesucht. Ich habe dann auch die NullSec gesucht. Dann habe ich dann auch die NullSec gesucht. Dann habe ich dann auch die NullSec gesucht. Dann habe ich dann auch die NullSec gesucht. Dann habe ich dann auch die NullSec gesucht.
02:31:59 Sounds like you have been taking tours all over the map.
02:32:19 So, if you had to give us a high-level overview, what topics are you running on for this CSM? So, there's a number of things, but I think the big hot-button issue that's still around after several, several years of talking about it is projection and how alliances can mobilize their forces and to what extent they can use them across large regions of space, like how goons and hordes can reasonably control vast swathes of NullSec that...
02:32:47 Ich bin auch ein CEO, und die andere große Sache ist, ist das Unternehmen. Ich denke, das Corporation ist wirklich die Leidenschaft von EVE.
02:33:14 Die Zeit, die neue Spieler in EVE spenden, um sich auf Dramatik zu finden, wenn sie eine Korps- und eine Community finden können. Und ich denke, dass CCP die Arbeit auf Freelance und Korps-Projekte und Korps-Projekte ist wirklich interessant. Und ich möchte, dass meine Korps-Mate und Allianz-Mate und andere EVE-Player auf das zu machen, um das zu machen, dass es gut implementiert und es hilft, die Zukunft der EVE-Futur.
02:33:40 Right on. Yeah, that's absolutely something that is always important. And yeah, no matter how many times we can redo the new player experience, the best way for a new player to get stuck in the game is to find another group or another human being to help them walk them through it.
02:34:02 Es ist immer ein Ziel, um die Angelegenheit zu erhöhen, um die Angelegenheit zu haben, oder die Angelegenheit zu haben, mit einem neuen Spieler zu haben. Das ist einfach nicht so gut, als zwei Leute sind durch EVE Online. Dann haben sie eine bessere Chance.
02:34:20 But you talked a little bit about some of your experience. It's quite a lot. You're talking about running a corp, being a fleet commander, doing lots of PVPing and organization with stuff like that.
02:34:34 We know the CSM can be a bit of a time commitment, not just with the hour that we have talking to the CSM and CCP every week, but people who want to know what's going on, people that you might want to reach out to and stuff like that. So how do you see yourself balancing the added time commitment in addition to the many things you do in New Eden? And who knows, you might have other things in the real world, hobbies and interests and a life, whatever that means.
Angards Zeitmanagement und Erfahrungsanalyse
02:35:0402:35:04 Es ist okay, ich habe keine Ahnung, es ist okay. Ich denke, es ist etwas, dass ich bereits in meinem EVE-Karriere mache, ist die Art, die ich balance. Ich bin ein F.C., bin ein C.E.O., mein Degree, das ich in real life mache, hat ziemlich low Kontakt Hours, ehrlich gesagt. Ich spende viel Zeit, die EVE-Karriere machen, und ich bin gut verset, in die Organisation des Discords und Slack-Channels, und sicher die Spreadsheets sind in Ordnung.
02:35:33 Vielen Dank.
02:35:38 Spreadsheets mentioned, I like it. So, if you had to pick something in EVE that you are less experienced in, what would that be? Please don't say the spreadsheets. No, I'm good at spreadsheets. I do a science degree. I like the spreadsheet. It's definitely all things high-sec and to a certain extent wormholes as well. Like, I've flown out of Thera, but everybody, all wormholes will tell you that's not a real wormhole. It's kind of fake.
02:36:05 Aber ja, HighSec ist, wo ich nicht verstehe. Ich habe drei Dinge in meinem Leben ganked, und andere als das, ich nicht wirklich da gehen. Es tut mir leid, und meine Sicherheit ist schlecht auf meine Charaktere. Das ist eine andere, wo ich immer noch was, wenn ich etwas in HighSec habe. HighSec ist certifiably Spooky Space. Wormholes 2. Ich habe sehr...
02:36:30 Ich bin oft reminded that I once took a fleet into a wormhole. It collapsed without a prober and we had to Thunderdome our way out. People make fun of me for it. Unless you got some kills. Yeah, exactly. We were in Rogue, so it took forever. But back to you as your CSM campaign is going on right now. There are other some...
02:36:54 sehr talented CSM candidates running for the 12 spots for CSM20. Is there any that stand out to you as someone that you'd really like to run with or be on the CSM with or someone that would complement your skill set, augment it in some way or just someone who seems really cool?
02:37:12 Es ist ein paar, eigentlich. Mit 56 totalen Candidates. Es gibt viele Leute, Aave-Player, die ich sehr respecte. Eriel, Rinn, der ich sehr aufhören. Dujek ist cool. Eto'o ist vor mir. Er ist ein guter Pilot, und ich denke, er hat ein guter Opinion über die Spiel. Es ist eine ganze Liste. Oz...
02:37:37 Ich glaube, es geht über meine Kapazitäten. Es geht über meine Kapazitäten, die er sagt. Aber es gibt viele, viele, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr Leute auf der CSN dieses Jahr. Und ich denke, viele werden sie ich mit gut mit sein können.
02:37:56 Sweet, und, well, CSM ist 12, so es gibt viele Leute zu arbeiten. Für jetzt, wir sind die Ende des Interviews, so es ist Zeit für meine Favourite Frage, und ich sage es. Kannst du bitte beschreiben dich in drei Worten? Ich liebe es, das ist eine real-lifeige Frage. Ich habe das ganze Zeit.
02:38:17 Ich sage, ich bin sehr inquisitive, ich bin thorough, und ich bin ein Gamer. Ich sage, dass ich die Ehe all day play, das ist mein Ding. Das sind meine drei Worte, da ihr go. Inquisitive, thorough Gamer, Gnives. Ich würde das in der Real-Life-Interview haben. Danke, ich versuche mein Best.
02:38:40 These interviews are always, you know, we call them the amuse-bouche of CSM 20 candidate interviews because it's only a taste of what a candidate has to offer. Are you going to be doing any other podcasts or featured on any other like community interviews where it's going to be a little bit more than 10 minutes where someone can learn a little bit more about you as a candidate and kind of what makes you tick.
Angards Podcast-Pläne und CSM-Vision
02:39:07
02:39:07 Ja, ich denke alle von Kschaleidern werden am nächsten Mal in der nächsten Woche. Das ist eine Schedulung, aber ich denke es wird auf ein Wednesday oder Thursday. Ihr könnt mich da sehen, und ich werde noch ein paar Ideen finden können, in ein bisschen mehr Zeit mit mehr Zeit.
02:39:26 Right on, that's great. A great opportunity to be there and absolutely love when people go out in the community and facilitate these conversations because they are super, super important. Even for candidates that don't make it under the CSM, the conversations that they start and the thought-provoking issues that they bring up, they stick with us all through the year at CCP. So this is one of the coolest things that we do.
02:39:53 Und ich überraschere mich über das ganze Jahr. Bevor wir sagen, ist es etwas, was wir nicht getrennt haben, was wir sagen? Ein paar finalen Worten?
02:40:06 Ich meine, danke euch, als Unternehmen. CCP ist nicht obligiert, um die CSM zu machen, aber es ist ein wirklich cooles Ding, um die Kommunikation zu verbessern mit der Community zu verbessern. Und es ist eine wirklich gute Idee, und ich denke, es verbessert die Qualität. Vielen Dank, SWIFT und Lumi.
02:40:26 Well, flattery will get you everywhere. Unfortunately, neither of us can vote. But still, really, really appreciate the kind words and couldn't agree more. The CSM. Goddammit, Swift, I was counting on you. Too bad. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
02:40:43 Enggarde, es ist wirklich großartig zu reden. Ich freue mich noch mehr von Ihren Kandidaten. Aber wir müssen jetzt gehen. Aber wenn du aufhörst bist, dann gehen wir an. Wir haben noch mehr Kandidaten zu reden. So Lüby und ich werden in ein paar Minuten reden. Sit tight, haben Spaß und sehen was in Spaceships passiert. Vielleicht gibt es ein Spiel, wo du mit 3D-Parten kannst.
Industrieller Fokus von Angel Maelstrom
02:44:21
02:44:21 Welcome back, everyone. I am CCP Lumi, here with CCP Swift, and right now we have Angel Maelstrom with us to talk about his CSM campaign. Angel, can you tell us a little bit about yourself and what you do in EVE? Gladly. So back in 2016 is when I first got my account, my father and I, we started an industrial corporation located near and dear to Amar.
02:44:50 Since then, I've been handed over the reins and have been building it into something amazing. So, why do you think right now the time is ripe for you to run for CSM? Well, industry is pretty complex, especially for a lot of new players coming in. I've heard a lot of the other CSM candidates talking about it, but new players are the lifeblood of the game. We need more new players.
02:45:17 Based off what I see in my corp, I see a lot of people struggling with industry. There are certain aspects that are too complicated, there's too many steps, so on and so forth. So I want to be a driving force, whether I get elected to CSM or not. And is industry your main topic you are running on, or have you got more...
02:45:40 Yes, so I would say industry as well as kind of like the new player experience. My corporation, we pride ourselves on helping out and teaching and training a lot of the new players that want to learn industry mining and stuff like that.
02:45:59 Right on. I find it so cool and so fascinating that you started with someone in your family and then kind of like passed on the reins of the reins or burden, depending on how you want to look at it, of corporation leadership. That's such a cool story. It's such a cool element to Eve that always gets a kick out of me.
02:46:21 So a huge part about being on the CSM is being able to communicate with the rest of the player base, not only the people who voted for you, but also people who might be interested in a certain topic or they might just want to know a little bit about how that process is working out. So should you get elected, how do you plan to communicate with the players?
02:46:44 So, currently, we have a Discord set up. I try to be active in the community as often as I can, whether it be in recruitment, in new player help. I also plan on starting up kind of a livestream here pretty soon. Sometime, I think, probably next Friday, we're going to be starting that up. But basically, there's going to be plenty of avenues that people will be able to reach me. I'm also thinking about opening up an email line. Neat. And of course, DMs and everything like that.
02:47:14 Ich frage mich, wie viele ich werde bekommen. Ich fühle mich, dass ich ein bisschen explodere. Du denkst, dass du bereitst, deine Zeit zwischen dem Spiel, EVE, zwischen dem Corporation und dem Allianz und dem CSM zu sein?
02:47:32 Well, just like with all my real-world businesses as well, it's all about time management. Proper time management, understanding your blocks, understanding the proper times to be able to speak and talk with everyone, as well as fit everything else into everything I do.
02:47:51 Right on. And as we've been chatting with some amazing CSM candidates the last three days, there are 55 other people running for 12 spots in the CSM. Is there anyone that stands out to you in the candidate pool where you're like, oh man, it's really cool to hear them talk about EVE or maybe you find yourself thinking that there'd be some really good synergy between you and another candidate?
02:48:19 I have four that I really would like to see, that I would really love to work with. Again, whether I'm elected or not. That would have to be Aerospeed, Rose, which was on this morning, YoungPuke, and Mike. All four, based off of everything I've heard so far, are amazing with everything that they know.
MS-Vision und Verbesserungsvorschläge
02:48:41
02:48:41 Nice, that's a really healthy mix of people who have been on the CSM before, people who are running for the first time, and also different play styles completely all over. That's what makes CSM as an institution really, really strong, is just having that diversity, having great, great, enthusiastic people running. And we have no shortage of enthusiastic, amazing people running for CSM this year.
02:49:10 Maybe talking about the CSM as an institution a little bit more. If you could pick one thing that you could change about the CSM that you believe will change it for the better between CCP, the players, and yourselves as CSM candidates, what would that be? I would have to say an increased amount of representatives that you guys...
02:49:36 Or more realistically, is selected and elected by the people. Having a broader diversity of players and representatives would definitely help out with making sure that everyone's voices are heard. We have heard that before in the last couple of days, so you are definitely not alone in thinking that.
02:50:00 Ja, es ist eine unserer Lieblings-Questions-To-Asken, denn es ist sehr viel selbst-Serving. Wir wollen, dass die CSM die beste Institution ist, nicht nur für die CCP, sondern auch für die Spieler. So, ich freue mich, und alle anderen, die diese Fragen zu stellen. Wir nehmen uns sehr gut aus. Ich will nur auf das.
02:50:24 Okay. So we talked about some of your strengths in EVE Online and what you do in the game. Is there something that you would view as an area where you're not so strong that you might need to reach out and get some added support for?
02:50:42 Definitely one of my weakest points in the game is PvP. Understanding the best way to fit a ship properly, as well as going out, learning transversal, doing small gank, just anything PvP. I've had some small experience when I lived in Frack a couple years back. But aside from that, nothing too intensive. But the best part is, is with the corp I run, I have a couple of officers that they're bread and butter as PvP. So I'm really looking forward to learning more and doing more with them.
02:51:13 Right on. And as part of the CSM, no one's expected to know absolutely everything about every facet of the game. There's huge elements of just like reaching out to other people, hearing what they have to say and just carrying that message forward too.
02:51:30 So for people that want to get to know you a little bit better, can you tell us where they can find you a bit more to talk more about your CSM campaign? Yeah, so like I stated, I'm around in the new player channels, recruitment channel. I'm also on New Eden quite a bit, so definitely come reach out to me via private DM, in-game mail.
02:51:56 I have a campaign discord, and we may be opening up my corp discord, but we don't know. As well as future interviews that are coming up that we are in the process of scheduling, alternative, and as well, we are looking to start doing some live streaming every Friday. Very cool. Sounds really good. Yeah, lots of really cool communication pathways there.
02:52:24 And I guess one of the last questions that we like to ask is, you know, when it comes to the CSM, there are so many different types of personalities that are running, so many different experience levels. What do you think sets you apart from some other candidates that people might be interested to know about?
02:52:44 Well, I have a lot of real-world experience being an entrepreneur. I'm, at this point, running four different businesses on top of running for CSAMN, running a corp, and soon-to-be Alliance. So a lot of real-world-derived experience that somehow I'm able to time manage everything out proper. And added with the fact of just the industrial experience of everything, how within the past...
02:53:11 ...eight months, how we've scaled from practically nothing all the way back up to producing capitals and structures. Right on, yeah. It's a cool thing to see the demand for capital ships growing just because of the sheer chaos that some of these groups go with Dredd. Just going to town. There was just a trillion-ist Dredd fight just last week, and it does seem like there's going to be a whole bunch more on the horizon.
02:53:41 But before we say goodbye, is there anything that we haven't had a chance to chat about just yet that you really want to let people know about who you are and kind of what you are running for? So the biggest things, like I stated before, new player experience, industry, I want to make sure that it's a lot more navigatable. Not necessarily, how do I put this in the best way?
02:54:09 Industry is a high skill ceiling factor in the faucet of the game. I want to try and maintain at least a lot of the endgame rewards that can come from it. But that being said, we also want to maintain the lifeblood with the new experience as well. So having a good combination of...
02:54:29 EASIER BARRIER OF ENTRY WITH BETTER END GAME KIND OF REWARD ESPECIALLY FOR SOME OF THE SOLO PLAYERS OUT THERE I KNOW I'M A DIRTY MULTIBOXER
02:54:43 Right on. Well, it sounds like something a lot of people can get behind, especially easing the entry into certain different areas of the game is definitely something that we hear a lot from newer players. They just want to be able to do new stuff or try new things out. They might not stick with it, but they want to be able to try it out in a meaningful type of way.
02:55:07 But thank you so much, Angel, for taking the time to chat with us today. Like we were saying, these interviews all go by so quickly. Can't believe we've got to say goodbye for now. But we're really looking forward to following your campaign, hearing more from you, and just seeing where it takes you.
02:55:28 I appreciate the opportunity, you guys, and I look forward to seeing everyone in the polls. Remember, everyone's vote matters. That is true. And you can vote not only for just one candidate, but you can vote for up to 10 candidates in a ranked fashion. And if that's confusing for you, don't worry, it's confusing for a lot of people. Of course, it's EVE Online. We have to find the...
02:55:52 Es ist eine Voting-System, die ein bisschen eine Explanation braucht. Es ist ein System, das ist all über die Welt verwendet. Und EVE-Universität wird eine Klasse über die Wahl auf, wie die Ranking-Voting-Preferenz funktioniert.
02:56:17 But CCP Lumi and I will be right back with our next candidate. Angel, once again, thank you so much, and we'll see you guys out there. Thank you, guys.
Anklays Schwerpunkt auf Neueinsteiger
03:01:51
03:01:51 Hi everyone, welcome back to our CSM20 Candidate Interviews. We are nearing the end of Day 3, Part 5 of Interviews, but we're not done yet. So right now we've got Anklay with us. Say hello and tell us who you are.
03:02:05 Hey, so it's good to be back for my second time running now for CSM. So I've been playing E for not that long compared to many of the other candidates. So I started in 2021 and somehow managed to find myself teaching new players really early on, sort of 9, 12 months into actually playing the game. And it's pretty much what I've been doing ever since. I've focused on teaching new players how to play the game. And most recently...
03:02:31 Ich dachte, dass ich wieder zurück nach HighSec und starte neue Spieler zu Beginn, eher zu versuchen, die Leute nach NullSec zu schnell. Aber ja, die Biggest Headsset Award ist definitiv amplified. Ich habe mich in den Kommentaren gesehen. Die Biggest Headsset ist definitiv amplified, aber ich habe schon seitens der letzten CSM-Campagne gesehen. Ich weiß nicht, was das sagt, was das letzte Jahr.
03:02:53 I just feel super cold out of people talking about my headset. I just can't help it, people. I have got a small head. The headset just looks disproportionately back. Anyway, that has nothing to do with your CSM campaign, so let's take this conversation back on the rails. If we have to get a high-level overview of the points you are running on, what are your topics?
03:03:18 Für mich hat es nicht viel verändert. Die Ultimate Core Principles sind immer noch über die Community. Ich würde gerne sagen, EVE ist ein Phenomenal-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games-Games.
03:03:42 Ich denke, es ist oft für die Speer der Entwickler und QA-Teams, wie wir eigentlich machen, und wie wir die Releases machen können. Aber für mich ist es darum, die Community mehr zu ermöglichen. CCP's Marketing Team ist großartig, und die Storys der Play ist großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig, großartig.
03:04:08 Das Problem ist, dass die Menschen in der Spiel zu eigentlich bleiben, die Menschen zu eigentlich engagieren, die Menschen mit den richtigen Gruppen, und letztendlich für die Menschen zu lernen, diese sehr schwierige Spiel, zumindest zu einer Grundlage. So für mich, ich möchte Möglichkeiten für neue Spieler zu nicht nur für die Tutoriale und dann finden sich in eine Newbie-System und fragen, was ich jetzt machen?
03:04:31 Oder gehen, wie ich, und fliegen einen Stabber, einen Stabber in Tama, und wundern, warum ich die Hölle habe. Aber tatsächlich haben die Möglichkeiten, wie ich das Spiel habe, um zu spielen, um mehr engagieren, um die Möglichkeiten zu unterstützen, um das Spiel zu helfen, das wird auch helfen. Ich habe definitiv in einem Low-Sex-System und in meinem EVE-Karrieren, so... Ich habe es gesehen.
03:04:59 Sometimes on purpose, but sometimes by accident. I remember that first time where you accidentally go through a pipe and you don't know what that is yet until you learn painfully. To re-learn it, because I've gone from... I spent like three years in NullSec and now I'm suddenly in HighSec again and all the rules are different. I keep forgetting to unenroll myself from Faction Warfare and wondering why the hell someone was able to shoot me for no reason. The worst is when you see a freighter.
03:05:25 auf eine Gate, und du bist in eine PVP-Ship und du bist, oh man, das ist verrückt, er ist einfach, er ist einfach nur ein Freighter durch NullSec, dann du bist du in NullSec. Ja, die ganze Zeit, ich habe fast schon mal angefangen, jemand und ich habe gesagt, nope, kann ich das nicht mehr, nicht mehr allowed. Indeed. Rhydon, so wir haben uns über das ein bisschen gehört, aber wir werden noch mehr into das, als auch.
03:05:48 CSM 20, you mentioned that you've run for the CSM before. What compels you, what inspires you, I should say, to throw your hat into the ring again and run for the CSM?
03:06:00 So, es ist ein bisschen anders für mich. Ich war Teil von Goon Swarm, ich war Teil der Bloc, und die Politik rund um den Bloc, wenn du Teil der Bloc bist, ist sehr unterschiedlich, als wenn du in der Bloc bist, wenn du in der Bloc bist. So für mich, der dream ist, dass ich eine Seat. Aber ich habe auch das Gefühl, dass das eine größere Herausforderung für mich ist, weil ich muss mit so vielen anderen Gruppen, um zu haben, zu werden.
03:06:26 Even if I end up coming last, the most important thing is having someone who's going to come on here and actually start screaming about the new player experience and start talking about it. If people don't highlight these opportunities and push it at every chance that we get, then it's just ultimately going to get ignored. And as much as, you know, there's some excellent candor song.
03:06:45 Die Voicers können oftmals durch die Nürnseck werden durch die Nürnseck gewonnen werden. Es ist sehr gut, was für die Blocs ist, weil sie eine große Strecke auf die Repräsentation auf der CSN machen können. Ich würde mich amiss nicht zu sitzen hier und zu moanen und zu sagen, dass die neuen Spieler sind wichtig. Wir müssen sie finden ihre Pathways in die Nürnseck, in die Nürnseck, in die Nürnseck, in die Wormholtz, in die Wormholtz, woher sie wollen. Sie müssen sie sagen und sagen und sagen.
03:07:13 I definitely appreciate that. I mean, we've chatted about it a little bit today, but just running for the CSM can make a tremendous impact on the conversations that we have in terms of development. You don't need to be on the CSM to have an impact, right? You can reach out to us in the community, but also exactly like this, these amazing conversations that we have over the last three days from some incredibly talented candidates.
03:07:42 Es gibt uns etwas Dinge zu considerieren, wenn wir über die Upcoming-Games-Upcoming-Features zu den Gämen, Upcoming-Things-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We-We
03:08:09 all the time that we can. The biggest thing is it's about removing the barriers to entry. The simplest example I can give is the insurance system. It's like eight tiers of insurance, only one of them is actually relevant to have at any point. But a new player looks and goes, what the hell is this? And then half the time it's not even close to the value of the ship they lose because it's an overly complex system. And it doesn't need to be fundamental changes to make it simpler for people to get into the game.
03:08:38 Die größte Sache für mich ist, dass die richtigen Gruppen sind. Sie sehen, wie EVE Rookies, Bombers Bar, all die öffentlichen Gemeinschaften, die Menschen in den Spiel gehen. Die Leute sind nicht von einem Endless Epic Arcs oder einem Level 1 oder Level 2 Missions. Sie sind von einem anderen Gruppen.
Anklays konstruktive Kritik und Kommunikation
03:09:02
03:09:02 The friendship machine takes many forms, but it's crucial for people to stick with Yves, without a doubt. Kind of like on that topic a little bit, which you mentioned briefly, but again, I'll focus in on one element. For the people that are running for CSM right now, is there any one of the candidates that kind of stick out to you as someone that you were like, man, what they have to say or they're...
03:09:28 Their viewer of the game is really, really cool. I really appreciate it. Really would love to serve on the CSM with them. Anyone that kind of fits that bill for you.
03:09:38 Es sind zwei Leute, die sich zu mindern. Sie sind zwei, die sich zu mindern. Sie sind auch die CSM, die nicht in den letzten Termin waren, für verschiedene Gründe. Aber Keishal ist sehr gut auf der Liste. Wenn jemanden will, neue Pläser werden, ist es Keishal. Sie macht es jeden Tag, nicht nur in der CSM-Kampagne, wie viele Menschen machen. Und ich würde gerne sehen Sie auf der CSM.
03:10:00 And similarly, eigentlich quite differently actually, is Angry Mustache. I think not having him on the CSM is a massive loss for any CSM because he is such an incredible analytical mind. The way he looks at information, the way he dissects it is absolutely phenomenal and quite frankly it's terrifying at times what he can actually do with data. But I'd love to see them both back again.
03:10:25 Unfortunately, we are slowly, well, quite quickly running out of time. These interviews go by way too fast, but I still have my favorite question to ask. So could you please describe yourself in three words before we close off the stream? Three words...
03:10:43 Ich bin ein bisschen ein dick. Vielleicht sind es vier Worte. Aber ich liebe es, ich liebe meine Punkte. Und ich liebe es, das ist, was ich hoffe, dass ich die CSM bringe, ist eine konstruktive Art von einem dickenswert. Aber es ist, dass ich die richtige Art von dem Motivation, und nicht einfach, dass es die Weise, dass es die Weise, dass es die Weise, dass es die Weise, dass es die Weise, dass es die Weise, dass es die Weise, dass es die Weise, dass es die Weise, dass es die Weise, dass es die Weise, dass es die Rolle, die CSM ist.
03:11:11 Yeah, right on. It's definitely a huge element to the CSM and just hugely important in general, being able to challenge things that we hold on to and kind of reevaluate and just make sure they're the right things, make sure we're going in the right direction. So it's like you said, being a bit of a constructive dick. That's good. Exactly. A great trait for someone on the CSM. But unfortunately, our time is up.
03:11:41 We love talking with you for these 10 minutes. Really look forward to seeing the rest of your CSM campaign. See you all over the place chatting about it. And yeah, we can't wait to see where this goes when the elections start on October 27th. And yeah, for those watching at home, don't go anywhere. We still have one candidate left for the interviews. So CZB Lumi and I will be right back.
03:12:08 Yeah, just sit back and relax. See you soon.

Piat, kannst du uns ein bisschen darüber erzählen, warum du für CSM bist?
03:16:14 Ja, ich bin, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um
03:16:43 Hotkeys for compressions and stackalls to make mining that much more fun. We'll just throw it right in then. You were talking a little bit about CSM reforms. If you can pick one thing you can change about the CSM that you think will result in a better CSM collaboration with CCP and with the players, what would it be?
03:17:05 Probably a system where instead of having candidates from, or having a majority of candidates from certain areas of space, limiting it to three members for each sector of space, so three for null sec, three for high sec, three for low sec, three for wormhole space, before I anger the Podchman fans, maybe more reforms to make.
03:17:32 Mehr Pochfan-Members haben eine Seat-At-The-Table. Essentially, ich will einfach nur weg von TSM-Stacking, wenn das stimmt. So, stattdessen von 7-Members von NullSec haben es ein bisschen mehr Sprecher, haben es ein bisschen mehr Repräsentation.
03:17:55 Ja, das ist definitiv etwas, das hat sich schon erwähnt, und hat sich schon auf der Bühne zu sagen, wenn wir über die Play-Style-Diversität in den CSM sprechen, um sich die verschiedenen Bereichen der Späten sind, um uns eine bessere Bildung zu sehen, was passiert. Ein bisschen bevor du Zeit auf CSM...
03:18:16 In 2018, we expanded the CSM from 10 seats to 12, which gave us two new people. And in that, we decided...
03:18:26 Und so we want to be able to see if there is a blind spot on the CSM with how the players voted.
03:18:47 They don't have the benefit of knowing what our four- to five-year plan is all the time. So yeah, it's something that's been really, really positive, I think. It's given us some great candidates like Drake Idden, Young Puke, Cashel Aderon.
03:19:03 und Stich Caneland. So, they've really made the CSM a better place. So, it's always cool to hear what people want to do with the CSM to make it even more diverse in the type of representation that it involves.
03:19:21 Absolutely. I actually had the pleasure of interviewing with Cashal just the other night. Her Eve Rookies is quite the source of information. I think she was a great pick by CCP.
03:19:40 Right on. And so you mentioned that you're fairly new to Yves. So coming into applying for the CSM and throwing your hat into the ring, that's a huge commitment. Can you tell us a little bit about why, like what inspired you to make that decision and to try and run for CSM?
03:20:00 Ja, die Inspiration war ziemlich aus der Bühne, ehrlich gesagt. Ich hatte einen Tag, während ich ein Purchase auf der E-Website habe, und ich habe auf der CSM-Page gesehen und habe mich gefragt, ob ich, ob ich könnte für das gehen. Ich habe durch die Requirements und habe angefangen, und habe angefangen, mit der Idee zu gehen.
03:20:28 Ich dachte, es war eine gute Idee. Und ja, ich stehe mit es. Plus, ich denke, dass die Idee der Beziehung der anderen Spieler ist sehr wichtig in meinem Leben ist. Ich habe immer ran für Student Bodies in der Schule und wasnt, und habe immer geniht das. So, wenn ich das in realen Leben könnte, wäre ich sicher.
03:20:55 in a video game that I enjoy playing and that I spend a lot of my time in. Right on. That's actually so cool. We need to take over the CCP webpage or the EVAL9 website a little bit more and just have more links, direct people to the CSM. That's what I'm getting out of this. Probably not the message you're trying to convey, but that's definitely the one that I'm writing down right now. Not at all. It's very well laid out. I just happened to stumble across it and a happy stumble as well.
03:21:24 Ich bin froh, dass das passiert. Also, wenn du dich in drei Worten würdest, welche Worten würdest du benutzen? Ja, das ist die Frage, die ich die meisten bedrohde. Aber wahrscheinlich open-minded, happy, und sehr commutative.
03:21:52 No reason to try this question. You've got a great answer.

03:21:59 Speaking of communicative, one of the huge elements of being on the CSM is being able to kind of reach back to players and reach out to players, people who either voted for you or people who are just interested in the CSM process. So how do you kind of, or what's your plan, I should say, if you get elected to CSM on how to communicate with players and those types of people who want to know a little bit more about what's going on.
03:22:26 Well, anyone is always free to contact me through Discord, through my email. It's rather empty, so please fill it up. I look forward to reading everyone's input. I'm currently investing into getting a website made for if I do get elected, so players will be able to reach me there.
03:22:51 Und ja, kontakt me through the game. I will always listen to everything. I will read every email, I won't skim over it, I'll read through it, get back to you.
03:23:05 Das ist eine Art von Pandora mit dem Eid. Aber sehr Admirable. Ich liebe die Attitüte, um zu einfachen, zu einfachen, zu einfachen, zu einfachen, zu sprechen, mit Leuten mit Eid. Und es ist eine unserer favoritee Dinge, die zu machen, zu sprechen mit Eid. Oh, ja. Es ist Teil der Game, Teil der Gemeinschaft. Du musst alle hören.
03:23:32 Very true. Unfortunately, though, this part of talking to the community and getting your views out is already almost over. So do you have anything else you want to address that we may have glossed over in the past 10 minutes or so?
03:23:48 Nothing that I can think of. The only thing I'd like to say is, for all the voters out there, vote for who you want. Don't vote because it's where you reside. Vote for what you feel is needed and for what you think, what you would like to be seen.
03:24:09 Great advice for people. And one of the best ways to get more diversity and more representation on the CSM is to just have more people voting. That makes it that much easier for candidates to get on, especially ones that don't have huge block supports. So do be sure to vote and make sure to fill out your ballot when voting time comes in. Go all 10 slots so your vote always gets down to somewhere and stays within the system. Wow.
03:24:39 Remind your friends who may have forgotten that the election is happening. Bug them. Be a little bit annoying and never want to vote. Right on. Well, thank you so much for chatting with us Piet. Really looking forward to seeing the rest of your campaign for this CSM20 campaign cycle. CSP Lumi and I will be right back in just a few minutes with some final words for the day. But yeah, really appreciate chatting with you.
03:25:07 Thank you for having me. It's been an absolute pleasure and an honor. I look forward to doing more of these in the future. Heck yeah. Alright, we'll be right back. Don't go anywhere, Twitch chat.
03:26:51 Alright, welcome back, everyone. It is CCP Lumi and CCP Swift here one more time for this weekend, at the very least. Thank you so much for watching the interviews with us and for your commentary in chat. It was delightful, as always. For now, there's a couple of reminders, though, that we want to give to you. Next week, we have the Alliance Tournament on, and after that, on Monday the 27th, voting opens.

03:27:17
03:27:17 Voting remains open for two whole weeks, so until the 10th of November. Do make sure you get your ballots in and very, very, very much make sure that you fill out all 10 slots. They matter. So please do.
03:27:31 Very well said. And for those who sat here and listened to the interviews with us, this has been an incredible joy for us to be able to go through and do to chat with players who are super enthusiastic and willing to talk about EVE Online and take huge chunks out of their life in order to do so. So thank you very much for listening. Thank you so much to everyone who is running for CSM and planning to vote for CSM20 as well. I cannot stress enough how cool of an institution and how important of an institution.
03:28:00 This is for us at CCP. You know, for me personally, it's one that I super believe in because I was a member of CSM6 and CSM7 way back in the dark, dark, dark ages when we had to take like carts walking uphill in the snow to school every single day, every single day.
03:28:21 Oh, man. You're making yourself sound way older. I know, I know. I'm not that old. It's only 14 CSMs ago. But yeah, this is definitely a really cool institution. Appreciate everyone's passion for being in chat, listening to these candidates. And please do make sure to go and check out a little bit more about what they have to say. Anyone that kind of you were interested in, they're all doing some amazing shows and community podcasts and stuff like that. So you can learn.
03:28:50 a little bit more about them. Ten minutes is never enough. So go check out their forum threads. Go check them out when they're all over the place on podcasts and shows and stuff like that. But for Lumi and I, just want to say thank you so much for being there and listening to us and just chatting to some amazing candidates. It's been a true pleasure. So take care, everyone. Fly safe and see you guys in space. See you guys.
