Einleitung zur CSM 20-Wahl
00:07:35
00:07:35 Welcome to CCB TV. I am CCB Swift, joined by CCB Lumi. And we've got a very exciting couple of next few hours and next couple of days for everyone. It's CSM 20 election season. I can't believe the last one was a year ago. It's just time flies so fast, but I'm excited to see these new candidates. We have plenty of people to talk to over the weekend.
00:08:06 Yeah, we really do. So generally what we try to do is not everyone is mandated to talk to us, unfortunately, but we do give every candidate the opportunity to interview with us here on CGTV so you guys can learn a little bit more about each candidate. And it's just a great way to learn about who you might want to vote for, learn about who you might want to kind of like hear about.
00:08:31 Und ja, just understand what these guys and gals are representing on the CSM, are hoping to represent on the CSM. It's a lot of different things this year, but I've seen a lot about the experience for new players.
00:08:48 Was ist die erste, die Sie in der Kampagne kamen? Ich habe viele Leute aus dem Losec-Area-of-Space gesehen, viele, als Sie gesagt haben, viele neue Spieler. Ich denke, wir haben einige der jüngsten CSM-Candidaten, die wir schon hatten, in Charakter-Age und Actual-Age, das ist sehr spannend.
00:09:09 Yeah, I'm just really looking forward to it. There are some names that we've seen before. I think there are five or six of our incumbents that are running again for re-election. I will hear from them later in the week. We've got some former CSM candidates who used to be on the CSM and took a little bit of a break. I think Kashal Adron and Mike Azariah. We're going to be chatting with them a little bit today. We'll also have Angry Moustache tomorrow, I believe.
00:09:37 Ah, the Mustache Man himself. Let's go.
00:09:42 Und wenn ihr ein bisschen mehr über diese Candidate habt, ihr habt viel Zeit. Wir sind in der Campainge-Periode jetzt. Ihr könnt einfach auf die EVE Online-Forms gehen. In der Gita Park, wo ihr könnt über die EVE Online-Forms lernen. Ihr könnt über die EVE Online-Forms reden. Ihr könnt über die EVE Online-Forms reden. Ihr könnt über die EVE Online-Forms reden. Ihr könnt über die EVE Online-Forms reden. Ihr könnt über die EVE Online-Forms reden.
00:10:10 understand what makes them tick a little bit more. But really, this is just the amuse-bouche of candidate interviews. This is going to be a great process. And then we will, I believe on the 14th of November, we'll announce who won CSM20. We will indeed. But first, we have 56 candidates. We are...
00:10:34 super far into their campaign period already and we'll be giving them some airtime now, but they've also had some airtime in the community because I know amongst other people, Sutsquatch, Kashal, Aderon and Loromart have been holding CSM interviews as well. So if you don't have time to watch this now, you can always check out their channels and see which candidates have been on already.
00:10:56 Und wenn du willst, kannst du über die Campaign Post von CZB-Swift überlegen, kannst du an! und es wird dich da, für einen Reinhardt von Manuscripten, wirklich. Da gibt es viele lange Posts in der. Ja, und wie Lumi sagte, einige andere Player-Debates und so, wie viele unserer Content-Creators und EVE-Partners, haben Town Halls-Debates, EVE-Universität wird machen Spaß.
00:11:24 Wie geht es Ihnen? Alles gut. Ich bin sehr froh. Ich bin sehr froh. Ich bin sehr froh.
Interview mit Ellen (Übersetzung: Sergei)
00:11:56
00:11:56 Hell yeah. If you did, if it wasn't obvious already, Ellen is here with a translator just to make sure that they get everything that they want to convey to us in perfect English. So thank you so much, Sergei, for joining us to translate for Ellen and Ellen here. My pleasure.
00:12:16 Tell me a little about yourself, about your past in the game, and as we know, you are one of the newest players in the game.
00:12:47 Das erste Mal, ich bin in den Spiel, das war fünf Jahre vor, aber ich verletzte den Spiel in eine Woche.
00:13:05 Dann bin ich hier zurückgekommen, weil ich gehört, dass dieses Spiel hilft, wie die Politik funktioniert. Und ich bin hier nicht, um zu spielen, wie ein Humboldt-Spiel, sondern um eine Gruppe, eine Gemeinschaft.
00:13:33 Und während der Zeit, dass ich hier bin, es waren sechs Gemeinden, sie wurden gegründet, und sie wurden verabschiedet. Wenn du musst, welche Themen du bist, du bist auf dem Thema? Welche Themen sind für dich wichtig?
00:14:05 Wie ich sehe, im Jahr 2025 der Spiel Erfahrung hier ist ziemlich schwer für die Spieler, weil die Spielmechaniker sind ziemlich ausgetauscht.
00:14:38 Ihr wisst, dass das Gaming-Content hier gebaut ist, dass etwas passieren wird.
00:15:01 Und die erste Erfahrung ist, dass man 20 Stunden kann, wenn man etwas zu kaufen kann, das nicht passiert. Und wenn man sich die Spiel nicht verletzt hat, dann kann man ihn nicht verletzt. Und das ist für mich ein Verzicht.
00:15:33 So what content would you like to see? So it's not disappointing.
00:15:52 Ich möchte, dass es so, wenn ich Zeit habe, und ich kann verstehen, was ich bekomme. Ich denke, dass der beste Beispiel dieses Content ist die Agent-Mission.
00:16:16 Wenn wir über den Start-Kontent sprechen, dann ist das erste, was mit dem Novik beschäftigt. Das sind die Beobachtungen.
00:16:28 Und in diesem Spiel gibt es jungen über ...
00:16:58 Du kannst du eine Reward-Box für 1 Million Prize sagen, ich weiß nicht, was das ist.
00:17:21 Die Leute schütten, weil sie mit einer guten Karte schütten, dass sie diese Karte sehr oft verabschiedet haben.
00:17:50 Für mich ist es das größte Beispiel der Situation. Ich denke, es wird besser, wenn wir diese Möglichkeiten entfernen und du wirst verstehen, welchen Preis du bekommst.
00:18:20 Alright, so it sounds like you want to represent some newer players on the CSM and, you know, your focus is going to be kind of on like the first 20 or 30 hours and maybe even some PvE elements of the game just to kind of modernize it and bring it up. I think a lot of people can agree with you that like the mission system hasn't changed all that much for...
00:18:46 Was sind die Unterschiede zwischen den anderen Gruppen und anderen Spieler?
00:19:16 Ich habe gesehen, viele Themen, die von anderen Kandidaten veröffentlicht wurden. Und ich habe gesehen, viele abstrakte Ideen. Ich bin gegen all das evil und für all das good.
00:19:41 Oder es war sehr klein.
00:20:02 Ich weiß nicht, was du gerade gesagt hast. Das ist ein Bounty, ein Bounty, ein Bounty, ein Bounty. Das ist ein Bounty, ein Bounty, ein Bounty, ein Bounty. Das ist ein Bounty, ein Bounty, ein Bounty, ein Bounty, ein Bounty. Das ist ein Bounty, ein Bounty, ein Bounty.
00:20:30 Ich möchte ein System-Approach-System-Approach-System-Approach-System-Approach-System-Approach-System-Approach.
00:20:52 Und ich glaube, dass die Spiel verbessert wird, wenn wir ein paar Systeme verändern können, statt von kleineren. Und ich glaube, dass wir nicht brauchen, dass die Spiel dramatisch verändern muss, wir nicht brauchen, dass sie in eine andere Spiel verändern.
00:21:23 Right on. Well, you know, I said in the very beginning of this that we only have about 10 minutes to chat and it sounds like a long time, but it goes by.
00:21:32 Insanely quickly. So we are just right at the end of our interview time with you guys. Really appreciate the insights. Some of you guys both have some really grand ideas. Absolutely love hearing about it. This is one of my favorite parts of the year because we get to chat with a whole bunch of very, very passionate players and kind of understand what makes them very excited about EVE and kind of what they think is the most important thing to change.
00:22:01 So, thank you guys so much for your time. Appreciate it. We will see more of you on the campaign trail. Before we go, are there any other debates that you're going to be on? Or are there any other shows that you're going to be talking to people with?
00:22:33 Ich werde es dieses Weekend in der russischen Gemeinde auf dem Stream von Kakschers. Konstantin Surovy. Konstantin Surovy, ja. Ich werde es dort sein. Er ist der Head des Legion des Deaths in der russischen Gemeinde. Er kennt Dichy.
00:22:58 Vielen Dank für uns.
Interview mit Teddy Shi: Industrie und Neue Spieler
00:26:54
00:26:54 Mostly welcome back us. We're back with Teddy Shi. Let's just go straight in, actually. Teddy, can you tell us a little bit about yourself? Who are you and what is your background in EVE? So I'm an industrialist in EVE. I mine and make products and hang out mostly in HiSec these days, flying with a lot of new bros and flying with a lot of other newer players.
00:27:22 Neat, so would you say that the new player experience is something you're going to be campaigning on? Yes, I think the new player experience is an important part. It needs an important piece of the puzzle and needs definitely improvement. So that's one of the many factors I'm campaigning on.
00:27:40 Cool. Real quick, I believe this is your first time running for the CSM, is that true? Yes, this is my first time running for the CSM. Alright, so why now? What compelled you to enter this crazy race for CSM20?
00:28:01 Ich habe das Spiel für eine lange Zeit. Ich habe es in 2018 gewonnen, und ich habe es einfach nur gewonnen, und ich fühle mich jetzt, mit den vielen Jahren ich habe, es ist jetzt Zeit, um wirklich einen Marken zu machen, und zu geben es eine Chance.
00:28:19 Right on. And Lumi was saying earlier that new players are definitely one of the kind of groups that you're planning to represent. Is there another type of strength that you have and people that are a constituency, I guess you could say, that you plan on representing?
00:28:37 The two biggest areas I plan on representing are new players, especially because I'm still not the oldest of players that are running, but also industrialists and miners. That's sort of my biggest two factors. I spend a lot of time in industry. I know way more than I could ever want to know about industry, and that's why I think I can be the most helpful.
00:29:01 So if industry is one of your main points, I'm assuming you're familiar with some of our other previous CSM members who we've had who run on industry. Is that people you want to like serve with on the CSM or are you kind of wanting someone completely different? Well, I like the idea of serving with anybody that, you know, without anybody.
00:29:24 Ich fühle mich, wenn ich mit einer anderen Kandidaten habe, dass wir sehr ähnlich denken würden. Aber ich denke, dass ich auch mit verschiedenen Mindungen bin, die vielleicht nicht speziell sind, in den Industrie oder Markets bin, würde ich auch sehr interessant sein. Aber ich bin offen mit jemanden, und ich bin froh, mit jemanden, wenn ich und wenn ich geteilt habe. Ich frage Sie eine sehr schwierige Frage, von deinen 55 anderen Kandidaten.
00:29:53 Which one would be your number one? I think if I were to get elected, the person I would want to serve the most with would be the Oz. I would think we would pair really well together. The Oz has a very great top-down view. I have a very great bottom-up view. So I think that we would pair very well when we're dealing with markets and industry and anything of that sort of nature.
00:30:14 He has been on the CSM. He's not term limited yet. He's got another year that he can run. But he has been a great addition to the CSM ecosystem. And being on CSM 18 and 19, it's been really nice to get his insights and just like insights from the players around there. It's really important for us to have a fairly well balanced and well rounded CSM. So that's why we really love to hear from candidates from all over the place.
00:30:45 In terms of your strengths, you shared about that, what would you say is probably an area of weakness, or maybe not weakness, but an area of least experience for Eve?
00:30:56 I think the area of least experience is going to be a dangerous area of space. I've lived in NullSec, I've lived in wormholes, but I just don't have that level of experience, and I think that's okay. As somebody who is focusing more on the person versus environment aspects of EVE, I think that I still fit in very well on the CSM, and I think I fit in well no matter what my strengths and weaknesses are.
00:31:27 Genau, und auf das, ein großes Teil von der CSM ist auch mit den Leuten, die Leute, die Leute, die Leute, und die Leute, die Leute, die Leute, die Leute, die Leute, die Leute, die Leute, die Leute, die Leute, die Leute, die Leute, die Leute, die Leute, die Leute, die Leute, die Leute, die Leute, die Leute.
00:31:50 Um, through forms of communication like this, being on shows and also, you know, having direct lines of communication, you know, I'm absolutely 100% open to receiving emails or other forms of communication to, you know, get ideas in and then also to send my thoughts out and like share with the player base. So no matter how you want to reach out to me, I'm very open to that. And I think that's important is having all channels open for players because then no matter where they are, they can.
00:32:18 oder ihre Gedanken. Das ist wichtig.
00:32:24 I do agree with you on that. Is that also what you're going to be using to get a support base for your ideas? Do you have a Discord channel where you share what you think and where people can shoot on it? Or how do you plan on going about that? Most of my campaigning has been on the forum. It's also been just kind of talking with other players. It hasn't been a lot of... I don't have a set Discord to have my thoughts and ideas in besides the Discord I run for the...
00:32:51 Das ist die ganze Zeit, aber es ist nur ein paar Worte von der Mouth-Conversationen und zu sprechen, mit den Leuten direkt.
00:33:02 Great on. Well, you've opened Pandora's box by inviting e-mails and Discord messages and just convos from people. I can definitely imagine that your in-game mailbox will explode at least in the next couple weeks as people try and make their decision for who to elect for CSM and start asking some questions. Kind of on that note, I know we only have limited time with candidates.
00:33:29 Just a way for people to understand a little bit of the candidates they want to know more about. Are you on any other shows or have you been on any other shows where you've been able to kind of dive deeper into some of the things that you believe in and some of the things that you find important?
00:33:44 So thus far, I've been on the Federation Frontline Report. I've also been on Kashal's show that she put on. I've had a couple of opportunities that I've taken, and I'm still looking for more as well. So if anybody's interested in having me on the show, please reach out. But yes, feel free to look at those for further insights. And then if you have any additional questions, just reach out and ask.
00:34:11 Und dann das ist unsere Frage zu stellen, für weitere Kommentare. Wir sind jetzt noch etwas, aber ist es noch etwas, was wir noch sagen, bevor wir so machen? Nichts, aber ja, fühle mich an. Und wenn du in den USA leben willst, ich auch auf eine EVE-event. Also fühle mich an.
00:34:34 Just to make sure people know which one is it. I host eMichigan based in Michigan. So it's an awesome event. It was great this last August and hopefully we'll put it on again this winter. Heck yeah, that's amazing. There was actually someone in our office who works in the PX department.
00:34:56 Er war so interessiert in das Meetup, weil er dort ist, weil er da war, ist es großartig genug, dass ihr da seid? Und wir haben, es ist jetzt schon starten, aber wir werden sehen, wie es das Growset und develops. Trashpan und ich eigentlich von EVE-Vegas zurückgekehrt ist. Spieler Meetups sind ein tolles Weg, um, zu chat mit EVE-Players und zu haben eine gute, gute, gute Zeit.
00:35:24 So, you know, huge props for organizing an in-person event, too, and juggling all that you do in-game as well. Well, thanks so much, and thanks so much for having me on the show. Thanks for coming out. We will be right back with our next candidate.
Interview mit Frippy: Balance und Kommunikation
00:42:30
00:42:30 Welcome back, everyone. I am CSB Swift, joined by CSB Lumi. Whoa, that went really bright. We are here just chatting a little bit, talking about what we're about to do. We've got a little bit of a break before our next candidate interviews comes in. Maybe not, actually. It looks like Frippy just joined us, so sorry about this. Give us one second, we'll get them sorted, and then we'll be back in just another second.
00:43:58 Okay, and we're back for real this time. Still CCP Swift and CCP Lumi, and we've brought Frippy along, who... Well, glad you tell that yourself. University getting the better of you? I was doing a maths assignment, and I got the message from you. I was like, shit, look at the time. So, yeah.
00:44:19 No worries, happens to the best of us. So, while we have you, can you tell us a bit about yourself and what your background is in EVE? Because I'm sure we're all very curious. So, my name is Trippi. I'm the CEO of the Corp Rebellion within Get of My Lawn, which is part of the Imperium. I live in Nullsec. I've been playing their game now since March 2024 and basically just been cruising along, enjoying EVE. I've been streaming now for about...
00:44:48 acht, neun Monate, und ich habe es einfach genutzt. Ich erinnere mich über das letzte Jahr, als du war ein wirklich frisch-Bean. Six Monate in. Ja. Wie hat die Erfahrung mit einem neuen Mann gespielt?
00:45:03 Es ist ein Roller-Coaster von Emotionen, es hat wirklich. Genuinely hat es nur mind-blowing, Progression-Wise, von einem Line-Member, ein bisschen mehr als Fleet-Commander, als als CEO, und dann dieses Spiel, das ganze Leben für jeden Tag. Und es hat einfach nur so gemacht. Ein emotional Roller-Coaster, zu sein.
00:45:27 So now that Yves is your life, what topics would you say you're most likely to bring up while you're on the CSM? What is the ones you have experience with? So I'd say the biggest topics would be the continued balancing of ships and PvP, certain mechanics, because that's sort of the area of the game mind.
00:45:55 Ich habe mich sehr interessiert, aber auch als CEO, ich bekomme viel Feedback von meinen Mitgliedern. Ich sehe, dass Industrie eine große Angelegenheit ist, die Leute wollen, und so es würde es eher Qualitäts-Life-Changes, als Monumental-Sort-of-Change-The-Entire-Game-Twecks-Balances-Malances-Malances-Malances-Malances-Malances-Malances-Malances-Malances-Malances-Malances-Malances-Malances-Malances-Malances.
00:46:21 Right on. That's a great area to focus on. And things like the major updates, which happened between expansions, are really, really good candidates for that. Most recently, the Legion major update, about a month and a little bit ago, the CSM and the EVE community had a tremendous impact on the ship balance decisions that we went with. Just kind of like the areas that were, as you were saying, just need a little bit of tweaks here and there. Yeah.
00:46:50 So we've got 54, 56, a bunch of CSM candidates running this year alongside yourself. 55 other ones, maybe if I did my math correctly, one minus 56. Hell yeah, I still got it. Is there a candidate that you've seen on the campaign trail so far that has stood out as someone that you'd love to potentially be on the council with?
00:47:14 I mean, in terms of all the great people running alongside myself, I think in terms of the people I've been on podcasts alongside with, I would have to say somebody like Drake Iden, just because he's so passionate. I know he's currently on the CSM still already, but working with him would be brilliant. He's so passionate with all his ideas and how he wants to get his work done. It's just so inspiring almost to see just
00:47:44 und die Liebe und die Passion he hat für den Spiel. Das ist auch was ich, so er wäre ein guter Person zu arbeiten. Ja, und...
00:47:55 Oh, sorry. Talking over each other. We're both so excited. One of the things that has Drake being a really effective CSM, as well as a lot of members of CSM19, is their ability to communicate with their constituencies and through, you know, other players that want to reach them. So if you're elected for the CSM, how do you imagine that working out? How do you imagine Frippy talking to the players?
00:48:20 Well, I'm in a bit of a lucky position of being a diplomat for Norsak Alliance and having quite a lot of reach in that regard. Being a CEO so I can talk to other CEO members in my Alliance and also being a Twitch streamer and having viewers from all over the game is a great way that I've got a lot of feedback over the past eight months of streaming and ideas for CSM. So I'd say because of the social networking I sort of built over the last year or so since my last CSM campaign, it would really support.
00:48:50 Fair enough. Just being able to talk to people is something that would be very convenient for you as a CSM member.
00:49:07 I mean, if you've talked to Drake, I'm sure you know that the CSM can be a massive time commitment, sometimes like up to 20 hours a week. And of course, it differs a bit with the way you approach the CSM yourself. But how do you see yourself balancing the CSM commitments with everything else in your life? Well, I like to put things in nice, neat little boxes in a calendar. And there is a lot of space in my calendar. So time commitment, there's a lot of available room for time commitment.
00:49:37 In terms of my life, because being a uni student, obviously got that real life commitment there, but my basically day to day, every single day, I've got big hour gaps of being able to put time and effort into this.
00:49:53 Right on. Ja, und es kann, wie Lumi sagte, es kann ein bisschen Zeit, aber ich bin ein Firm believer, dass es wirklich wert ist. Es ist eine meiner, als ich gesagt habe, ich gush über den CSM all die Zeit, weil es so viel Spaß zu hören, zu hören, zu hören, zu hören, zu hören, zu hören, zu hören, zu hören, und zu hören, was es besonders für sie.
00:50:15 Das war ich bin für einen zweiten Mal. Ich dachte, ich war das letzte Mal, es ging nicht so gut. Ich bin wieder zurück. Ich will wieder wieder. Ich will wieder wieder. Und ich will wieder weiter. Wenn ich zum Beispiel für CSM bin, habe ich nicht gewonnen. Ich glaube, es war drei Tries. Ich weiß nicht, wie viele Leute, wie Drake. First time, no problem. YoungPuke, first time, no problem. All diese Leute, first timers, no problem. Aber, you know.
00:50:44 If I'm any example, then all the best ones take a little bit of time to mature. So you're in good company is what I'm trying to say. I appreciate that. And before we head out, the CSM campaign season is a bit of a long one. We're just starting. Do you plan on being on any more shows or podcasts or dev, not dev chats, but interviews where people might be able to hear a little bit more about you?
00:51:15 Ja, ich planne um zu sprechen, zu Menschen, die ich in den letzten Jahren habe. Ich habe mich heute über ein Possible One geöffnet, um in den nächsten paar Wochen zu kommen. Ich planne um die Publisher-Fronten zu halten. Ich mache auch Q&A auf meine Streams-Weekly. Ich liebe es, die Community zu sehen, was sie denken über es.
00:51:44 Ich werde alle Fragen beantworten, so ja, definitiv. Das wird für sicherlich helfen. Für jetzt ist unser Zeitpunkt, also wir gehen nach dem Holding screen und werden gleich mit dem nächsten Kandidaten. Danke für mich. Vielen Dank für uns. Danke für mich.
Interview mit Colt (Coltitis Mando): Small-Gang-PvP in Pochven
00:56:29
00:56:29 Welcome back, everyone. I am CZB Swift, joined by CZB Luby, continuing our round of CSM 20 Candidate Interviews. These go by so fast, but we will cherish and savor the next ones as they're here. You'll also be able to tune in all weekend long to hear from a variety of CSM candidates. But right now, it's Coltitis Mando. Coltitis, Colt, how are you doing? I'm doing good. How are you?
00:56:57 Doing great. Legitimately, I've said it like 100 times already, but legitimately my favorite time of the year. And we've got the Alliance Tournament next week too, so like giga amped. Yeah, it's going to be a lot of fun. He does say this about a lot of the activities we do, but he does mean it is truly fun to do this, even if it's a marathon. I mean it every single time. I'm just a huge Eve nerd.
00:57:24 I mean, same. Speaking of being an EVE nerd, Colt, it's going to be hard for me to figure this one out. Can you tell us a little bit about yourself? Who are you? What is your background in EVE? And what areas of space do you play in the most? Sure. So I technically started playing EVE back in 2013 when I was much younger, obviously. And like a lot of players,
00:57:53 Ich hatte eine cyclicale, ich bin mit EVE, ich habe das EVE schon gut, ich habe das Witz, ich werde wieder spielen EVE für ein paar Zeit, ich werde wieder auf und auf und auf und auf, wenn du dann findest du ein NICHE in dein Grupp, das du eigentlich genutzt bist, oder du quittest. Und bevor ich quitt, habe ich einen guten Grupp, und ich habe mit ihnen gearbeitet, um 18 Monaten zu sein, und es hat gut funktioniert.
00:58:19 Ich vermisse Triglavian Invasion, aber ich bin froh, dass ich ein Pochfen residente bin. Ich spende die ganze Zeit, die ganze Zeit mit Small-Game content in Pochfen, die ich denke, ist der beste Region in EVE. Und so, ja, ein paar von meinen Content ist ein paar PvP. Ich liebe Theory-Craft und PVE, aber ein paar Stunden, es wird immer nur Solo- oder Small-Game sein.
00:58:46 Sounds really good. We can always use some more candidates who are into the solo and small gang way of EVE. You said you have been playing EVE for like on and off a little bit. Why is now the time for you to be running for CSM? Well I lasted more than three months in a given cycle for the first time in years, which is...
00:59:11 Das ist wahrscheinlich ein gutes Zeichen. Und auch, ich fand dieses Group und dieses Niche-Area-Spaß, das ich denke, ich kann tatsächlich sprechen und sprechen. Ich denke, dass vielleicht ein Problem mit vielen anderen Spieler ist, dass sie...
00:59:25 Ich denke, ich habe das. Ich denke, ich habe das. Ich denke, ich habe eine gute Perspektive, um zu share. Aber ja, ich denke, das in den CSM in generell. Drake Idun hat mich ein sehr großer Inspiration für mich, um zu versuchen, CSM zu machen.
00:59:55 durch den Potchfin roundtable und was er hat mit CSM gemacht. Und so, ich denke, dass ich eine extra Perspektive über was Drake bereits bringt, ist etwas, was ich, in dem Sinne von small-game content in Potchfin und beyond.
01:00:09 Right on. So strengths in Pokven, strengths in small gang. What are some of your weaknesses? Well, I hate to say weaknesses because EVE is such a diverse game. Not everyone can be a professional at every single area, no matter how hard they try. But what's an area of the game that you're not super comfortable with or you feel is like a blind spot for you?
01:00:30 Basically, any fleet operation that requires tie-dye. I have never once been in a tie-dye fight. I don't plan to be. Capital brawls don't necessarily interest me. I like to keep things battleship and below. And so I think that once you get to what I would call more of the null-sov route of PvP, that's where my expertise definitely starts to taper off very significantly.
01:00:54 Ich meine, wir haben einige NullSec Leute kommen in die Pokvin, alle in einem Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment, die in einen Moment.
01:01:23 So we'll see what happens this weekend when there's the MPSI PvP fleet into Potrin. Well, maybe you might get some bit of that tie-dye after all, and then you can report back what it's like. Absolutely. By the way, everyone, it's totality weekend, and the Aula and Kanoka free ports are blowing up. Make sure you come to the loot pinata. That's actually so huge, because these things can't be replaced once they go down. Yes, being Agents of Chaos here is definitely the way to go.
01:01:56 So, as an Agent of Chaos, how many people do you regularly talk to about EVE? Is it just like the Pochfin crew, or do you also talk to the players outside of Pochfin? And how would you communicate with those particularly, should you get elected? So it is definitely primarily Pochfin. I think that the most outreach that I've had has been through the Drifter Crisis event that was happening here through the beginning of last year and the beginning of this year.
01:02:25 Und das war ein sehr guter Zeit, besonders für viele Trigg Leute, die nicht in Potchfin, weil sie aus der Woodwork kommen, um zu unterstützen Trigg. Und so, wir haben eine Discord, die Trigg-Leaving Collective, in order zu orchestrieren und alle organisieren für das Event. Und so, ich denke, dass meine Constituency ist, Majority Potchfin, weil das die Majority der Leute, die ich zu sprechen, leben.
01:02:54 die kam von All Walks of Eve, und ich denke, dass...
01:03:00 Talking to them through the Trigolaming Collective Discord has been, at least in the past, very enlightening in terms of what people do. But how I outreach to people mostly is just through the normal Pochman channels through either the EVE Discord or through the individual alliances and corporations, Discord, and just interacting through them like that. And very rarely do I pop into Praise Zoria because of the dumpster fire that is that Discord server.
01:03:29 Do you think this Pochfin base of yours is going to be enough of a support base for your ideas to get you in? Potentially not. I think that I want to run more on the small gang content more than anything. I talk about it in my forum post. There is small gang content that was released here, at least nominally, for the Revenant and Equinox expansions through the Skyhooks and Mercenary Dens, and I think that there's stuff that needs to be worked on there.
01:03:58 But I think that because I primarily want to do small gang content and because I have a good perspective on that, I think that that is my constituency more than anything. Because Pochfin can be boiled down to either people who are running OBSs for the payouts and people who actually want to interact with the region and see it thrive. And so I think that I want to cater to the latter in Pochfin and then small gang beyond that.
01:04:28 So I think it's gonna be enough who knows I'm just in it for fun. That's good. I mean part of the like the one of the most important parts of the CSM is the election process things like this because you know you are raising a lot of conversations these are things that people are going to be talking about in the community for the next few weeks and months So like even if you don't get the number one amount of votes you still do impact some change by participating in the CSM process so
01:04:57 We are personally very happy to have everyone running in there to learn more about what makes the Eve tick for your area of space. You mentioned Drake before, who is currently on the CSM, who represents Poppin. Is there another candidate that's running for CSM that you would envision yourself working really well with, or someone that you would like to work with?
01:05:26 So, honestly, I only really know Drake. I'm going to be very real. CSM is something that has not been on my radar in the past. And if they aren't coming from Pochfin, I probably haven't interacted with them on a personal basis. So I think Drake is probably the ideal CSM candidate to be working with. I'm sure I've heard great things from third parties about other CSM candidates, and I'm sure that they're great too. But Drake 100% is the main squeeze. Yeah. I'm sure he'll very...
01:05:56 Vielen Dank.
01:06:24 you know during these this like election cycle are you going to be appearing on any other podcasts have you been on any
01:06:30 Ja, so ich war bei Loru hier letzte Woche. Ich weiß nicht, was es war. Und irgendwann wird ein YouTube-Video geöffnet mit dem Interview geöffnet werden. Ich hatte euch heute und dann später this evening, ich werde einen Interview mit Shad, Shadsquatch, um, bei der gleichen Zeit, wie er, wie he ist, in der CSM-Kanadette. Und für alles andere, ich werde es bei der Eier spielen, in welchen Möglichkeiten es gibt.
01:06:56 If you want to get in contact with me directly, you can always join the Triglavian Collective Discord server or the Virage Discord server, which is the alliance of which I'm a part of. Right on. Well, Colt, thank you so much for chatting with us, taking that time. We will look forward to the Totality Day events later this weekend and just hearing more about you on Shad and wherever else we might see you appearing. So make sure to keep your eyes out before you might hear more from Coltitis Mando.
01:07:29 Thanks so much. Thank you for your time. And we'll be on the usual holding screen while we get the next candidate ready for his interview. Thank you. Welcome back, everyone. We've got even more CSM20 candidate interviews coming your way. We're about halfway through. These things just blitz by so fast. I cannot believe it. But we are joined right now with Fluffy Necco. Fluffy, how are you?
Interview mit Fluffy Necco: Wormholer und New Player Advocate
01:11:15
01:11:15 Vielen Dank für mich. Ich bin sehr gut, es ist ein sehr gut. Ich hoffe, ihr seid auch fantastisch. Und ich hoffe, dass alle die Zuschauer auch fantastisch sind. Ich denke, ich kann für CZP-Swift und mich zu sagen, dass wir sind. Das ist eine unserer Favourite times. Ich werde nicht sagen, die Favourite, weil wir viele Favourites haben. So, wir beginnen. Können Sie sich ein bisschen vorstellen? Was ist Ihr Background in EVE?
01:11:41 So, my name is Fluffy and I've been in EVE for close to two years at this point. I have started that in a little wormhole corp, which has now grown into a much bigger wormhole corp. And like about the last year, I've also been involved with EVE Rookies, getting new players up to speed and running NPSI fleets for them. Sounds good. I know EVE Rookies is doing a lot of hard work to make EVE more accessible to us new folks.
01:12:09 Would you say that the new player experience then is one of the topics you will be running for?
01:12:16 Yes, I would obviously love to change the new player experience. I do think there are a lot of ways the game could be improved. I do think that there could be some more like advertising for these big communities that do this, because obviously you generally always see like Yves University, that's a big corp that does people's stuff. But there's also a lot of other communities and I would like to...
01:12:40 Get them together as well. Get CCP to get them together as well. Sit down and get new people up to speed faster. The tutorial I think is very short. I would love to have that changed if that's possible at all. A longer tutorial is probably one of the...
01:13:00 The things I've never heard said before from Eve players, but you are absolutely right. You know, some of the best ways that new players can stick with the game and something we've seen so often is when they find an amazing group like Eve Rookies, like Eve University, like the countless other groups that are welcoming and onboarding to new players.
01:13:21 You guys do so much of a better job making sure that these players have their questions answered, they feel comfortable, they know what to do next, and just have all the support that they need. So just pat yourself on the back. You guys are doing a fantastic job.
01:13:39 Wir lieben mit neuen Leuten, weil das ist wirklich eine Art, die Leute zu spielen und spielen. Und das ist wirklich ein Punkt für mich. Ich möchte die neuen Leute, die kleinen Annoienzen haben in den Spiel. Und ich liebe sie, die Spiel ist nicht nur für große Fights. Ich denke, die Spiel ist eher in der Community.
01:14:07 especially small to mid-sized communities. Right on. So you mentioned this, but why now? Why are you running for the CSM right now? What inspired you to run for CSM20?
01:14:21 So, one of my big inspirations had been talking with Cashal about how things were when she did this and how things are right now. And I obviously talked with a lot of new people and how they're feeling about the things. And they kind of said that they feel left out from all the conversations because they don't have the experience. They feel like don't have a voice. And I think I would love to be that voice. I would love to represent them. And obviously...
01:14:47 Ich denke, ich könnte es. Ich würde gerne gerne gerne gerne gerne gerne gerne gerne gerne gerne gerne gerne gerne gerne gerne gerne gerne gerne gerne
01:15:10 So besides the new players, because I understand they're definitely one of your constituencies, who else would you say you plan on representing? Any specific areas of space or playstyles? Hell yeah. So I'm an avid wormholer. I love living in wormholes. I live in a wormhole full-time. I have a lot of fun. I live in a wormhole group, so obviously that's kind of obvious. So I would love to see some wormhole stuff, and so I heard from others.
01:15:38 Wormhold changes might be on the table, so I would also love to get on that, get into testing, designing, maybe as much as CCP lets CSM do things, get onto it and get some thought into that as well. Is there a specific change you'd really love to see as a wormholder?
01:16:02 So, I don't really do PvP, I'll tell you that much, so I'm not really PvP-dude. I do a lot of PvE and I do feel that the PvE side of Ramos is quite lacking compared to whatever is in any other parts of New Eden, so if I were to be asked, like, one thing, I would say probably, like, redesign the whole PvE aspect, like, how money-making works there, make it a bit more streamlined, get it up to speed, because it hasn't really been changed in the past.
01:16:35 All I'm hearing is nerf blue loot. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. No, I'm not saying to nerf it. I just want a bit more dynamic content. Because right now you go and shoot three things and that's it. I want a bit more dynamic thing. So, for example, there was the Drifter Crisis and there was that one...
01:16:54 mit dem Verve-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense-Defense
01:17:23 Und wenn wir die Drifter Crisis side haben, viele Leute sagten, wir können auch das machen. Das ist so viel mehr Spaß. Und ich denke, ja, dynamic content ist, glaube ich, sehr sad. Ja, das ist gut. Die Labyrinths und die Labyrinths waren viel Spaß. Ich weiß, dass wir sie nicht mehr wissen können. Wir wussten, dass wir das nicht mehr wissen können. Wir wussten, dass wir besser wissen können. Wir wussten, dass wir das besser wissen können. Wir wussten besser, dass wir das besser wissen können.
01:17:52 Ja, es hat uns viel Zeit gemacht, aber das war viel Spaß, um neue Content zu finden, um es zu finden, um es zu finden, um es zu finden, etc. Es war sehr schön, ich denke.
01:18:05 So wormholers, you guys are weird, respectfully. Don't chat in local too much or, you know, kind of squirrelly, hard to find where you guys are at, sometimes cloaked all the time. But on the CSM, communication's a huge element. So if you're elected, how do you plan on chatting with the players and just the people who elected you and just everyone else that you'll represent?
01:18:31 So obviously, as everyone else also said, I am also very much open to any kind of communications. If you find me by sending me a mail, I will most certainly reply to you. You can also find me and a lot of other CSM candidates and even some CSM members in the Ebrookies Discord as well. We are very open to that. And obviously, you can reach out to me directly if that's something that you want. And I like to talk with people, so...
01:19:01 So, again, if you have any questions, any issues, I'd be happy to talk with anyone, get something done about that. Right on. I can anticipate that your Discord DMs are going to blow up in the next few weeks as people learn more and more about the candidates running for CSM20. So, just a bit of a fortune for you. You're going to have a lot of alert sounds coming in.
01:19:28 Let me just go into learning more about you. Have you been on any interviews in the past few weeks, or are you going to be? Oh, yes. So I started out obviously, because Kishol is in Ebrookies, she's the boss lady. I had to do the first one with her, just to make her happy. And after that, I had one done with the Federation Frontline Report, and I just had one two days ago done with Sasquatch.
01:19:55 Für heute ist das letzte Mal. Ich habe es schon gesagt, aber es ist in den Negotiating-Phase. Wir werden sehen. Wir werden noch mehr sehen. Wir werden sehen.
01:20:11 Sounds really good. And for those who missed those interviews, they're either on YouTube or in the Twitch video recordings, so you can definitely check them out there. For now, it's almost time to wrap up our interview because time does fly by really fast. Before we go away, is there anything else you'd like to talk about?
01:20:31 Ja, so I would like you as a community as a whole. There are a lot of CSM candidates. You guys want to go out, you want to look at every single candidate. Make sure you guys watch the interviews, etc. Make sure you're getting 10 votes. Every single vote counts. And just make sure you guys get somebody who caters to the New Bros as well, because New Bros are what makes Eve Eve.
01:20:58 und das macht die Community. So, wenn ihr euch nicht möchtet, einfach mal bitte, dass ihr euch jemanden habt, die sich über die Neubrow-Experienz interessiert. Das ist wirklich was ich. Ich will Neubrow-Experienz, und ich will neue Leute in den Spiel. So, Leute, bitte, ihr Teil. Ich liebe euch, everyone. Good luck.
01:21:18 That is the best closing statement I've heard so far. So with that, we'll go back to the holding screen and get ourselves a new candidate ready. Thank you so much for your time, Fluffy. Thank you guys for having me. Good luck. We are back with the one, the only Mike Azariah, continuing on with our CSM20 election coverage. Mike, how are you doing? I'm doing great. Thank you for asking. So this is Mike.
Interview mit Mike Azariah: Repräsentation der Casual-Spieler
01:27:27
01:27:27 I just wanted to throw Mike a bit of a curveball to start this interview off, as I know you've answered many of these questions before that we're about to ask, but first, Chad would really like to know what is your favorite flavor of Starseed? Old school. I drink Quaife. That's fair. A galente man through and through. We somehow all knew it.
01:27:54 Sie sind sehr disappointed mit dem Antworten. Du hast einen Enem aus dem Thunder Daddy. Aber es ist okay. Es ist okay. Ich bin fast. Wave zero. So Mike, du hast hier schon. Du bist hier schon. Wenn du jemanden warst, sind Sie jetzt. Sie sind jetzt oder sind jetzt. Warum sind Sie jetzt? Warum CSM 20?
01:28:22 Oh, that's a tough question, because some of the comments in some of the various things have asked, you've had your turn, give somebody else a turn. I enjoy being on the CSM, I think I'm helping, and I like to represent an underrepresented part of the game, casuals, the new bros, that sort of thing. I live in rookie help chat, occasionally chat with people in other communities as I wander around, but...
01:28:49 Ich denke, ich bin gut an das, oder leiseweise. Sie haben mich nicht aus dem Ausland gebracht. Es ist nicht, warum jetzt? Es ist, das ist, warum ich immer wieder mache. Und es gibt jemanden eine Turn. Es gibt 12 Seats dieses Jahr. Jeder kann eine Turn auf der gleichen Zeit, wenn sie eine gute Kampagne und wenn sie können.
01:29:11 And you have to accept the fact, I ran last year, I am not on CSM19, because sometimes when you run an election, you lose. So that's why I'm running. Sounds good to me. So those, besides the new players, what are those other underrepresented areas of space that you were mentioning?
01:29:35 Well, if you listen to the people who need a good roll of tinfoil to make their headwear, anyone other than Null needs representation, because the Null people have already decided or are in the process of deciding what their ballots are going to be, and they swap their little votes, so you vote this, us, two and three, and we'll vote you two and three on our massive ballots, and they get elected. It's the little groups that need representation, small gangs.
01:30:04 Die Menschen in Cochfin haben endlich eine Repräsentation bekommen. Die Wormholz haben endlich gegründet genug, um ihre eigene Repräsentation zu bekommen. Aber manchmal werden die Menschen aus der Kandidaten beurteilen, wo sie leben. Und eigentlich, das ist eine große Wormholz. Es ist besser, dass sie aus dem Kandidaten beurteilen.
01:30:25 So I don't care whether you live in low-sec, null-sec, high-sec, Pochfen. Are you an industry person? Do you play with the economy? Are you flying in small gangs or are you just an F1 monkey flying with the huge groups? Both of those need, all of those need representation, but it's playstyle that we need. Now on the other hand, the playstyle that I'm doing isn't necessarily a playstyle, it's the introduction to playstyles.
01:30:51 So it's people who are just starting out the game, and you would not believe how often we have people in Rookie Help Chat who say, well, I finished a tutorial, now what? And they are expecting some sort of train that will lead them all the way through the game until they get to kill the dragon at the end. We have to tell them there is no dragon, and that there is no train track. At this point, it's open territory, start wandering.
Verbesserung des New Player Experiences durch PVP
01:31:15
01:31:15 The NPE could do a better job of showing some of that. One of the things I'd like to push for, which will probably shock the pants off of some people if they're wearing pants, is I honestly think there should be a PVP element in the new player experience, even if it's in an arena or something like that. So they get a chance to see what happens when you fly against somebody else rather than their first PVP experience being a gate camp.
01:31:42 in some system when they're trying to go to Gita to go shopping. Gustav Manfred, you look very different than how I'm used to seeing you. I'm just kidding, of course. Gustav is another CSM representative or a CSM candidate who kind of has a very similar idea when it comes to getting people introduced into arena-type PVP.
01:32:09 Sorry, I'm squirreling all over the place, Mike. I'm just so happy seeing you. I lose track of everything I'm supposed to say, and it goes all out the window. You've had the pleasure of serving on several councils in your time. Six. Six? That's crazy. That seems like a lot. That seems like too much. It feels like we shouldn't let you run again. But no, your insights are always valuable.
01:32:36 der CSM hat eine Tremendung, und es ist nicht nur auf die Terme der CSM sind, sondern wir schauen uns an die Informationen, die CSM 16, 17, 18 haben uns gegeben, und sogar bevor das. Aber das ist... Oh, sorry. Das ist eine der Dinge, die ich bringe zu CSM, und Sie wissen das von Meetings, ist,
01:33:02 Das hat sich schon versucht, das hat sich schon versucht, oder das hat sich schon versucht, das von CSM 10 oder von CSM 8. Das ist, zu einer bestimmten Art, ich bin die Archival-Memorie der CSM. Ich habe tatsächlich studiert die Geschichte und habe alle Minuten, die vor allem, bis zu CSM 1 und 2. Es ist toll, dass jemand jemanden, wo wir kamen, wo wir kamen. Ich freue mich sehr, wie CSM hat sich verändert und verändert.
01:33:29 Die CSM hat immer besser gesagt, dass die CSM besser gesagt hat, dass die CSM besser gesagt hat, dass die CSM besser gesagt hat.
01:33:49 So kind of the dovetailing on that for this election, is there a CSM candidate who's running who you're kind of excited to potentially be on the council with?
01:34:02 Gott, Sie haben uns das Frage gestellt, und ich sagte, dass es wirklich schwer wäre, weil es viele sehr gute Spieler gibt, die auf der CSM sind, und das sind in der CSM. Es hat mir eine halbe Stunde von Soul-Searching gemacht, und der eine, die ich wirklich gerne arbeite mit, weil wir so gut sind, ist Kaschal. Und sie hat gesagt,
01:34:27 I'm the person who gets the players to realize there's a social aspect of the game and talking to them. Then she picks it up and puts them into groups and organizes and shows them there's a big game out there. So it's almost like we tag team the new bros into joining Eve as a large game. From there, once they've gone through Cashel's new bro experience and they've done home fronts or incursions, then they can go out into the brighter world finding or universe finding that there's stuff to do.
01:34:56 We seem to connect well and work as a team to get the word out of what EVE is and try to decrease the churn that happens. If you had to pick someone who is more on the opposite side of the spectrum as you, who would that be?
01:35:17 Ken Feld. Ken Feld would be the big one then, because industry, I did industry for six months making Warp Scrambler 2s and selling them in Gita, and anyone who can stay at that for more than six months has my utmost respect, and he seems to have...
01:35:35 All the numbers memorized. It's scary when you guys get in a conversation about building things and he'll rattle off what the expense is, where the choke points are, all of that without seeming to consult any paper. It's like he's got all of that stuff right at his fingertips. So he'd be a good one.
CSM-Erfahrung und Kandidaten-Kooperationen
01:35:58
01:35:58 All right, thank you for that. Then maybe one of our more final questions for today's interview. During this campaign period, where else can people find you? Are you doing any other interviews? Are you in particular places where people can talk to you? You can always find me in EVE mail, that sort of thing. You can send me, I'm on Twitter. I do a weekly...
01:36:21 EVE News Sports & Weather cast. I don't know if anyone in Iceland watches it, but I do it anyways. I have done an interview with Cashel, so that'll be coming out hopefully when she finishes editing, but she's got a lot of busy stuff right now, so I am not rushing her. I'm hoping to do a little chat at EVE Uni, explaining what the CSM is, how the votes go, and how...
01:36:48 STV works over all that sort of thing. If somebody else wants to invite me to come and talk the rear off about Eve, I'm always open. But to a certain extent, I'm amazed that my wife puts up with the amount of time I talk about Eve and yell in the den. So I'm not trying to push my limits too much. Happy wife, I get to live.
01:37:11 Very well said, Mike. Well, we are looking forward to the rest of the CSM20 campaign. We know we're going to hear a lot more from you on, as you said, places like Eve University. And yeah, it's just always wonderful chatting with you and all of our CSM20 candidates. So we are going to just wave a big 07 to you, Mike. We will see you out there on the campaign trail. And we'll be back in just a couple minutes with our next candidate.
01:37:42 Thank you.
01:42:40 Wir sind sehr busy, ja. Ich bin froh, dass wir viel mehr Zeit bekommen, mit all den Interviewen du hast. Wir sind froh, dass du Zeit für uns gemacht hast. Absolut, immer. Das ist mein Favourite Teil der CSN-Campagnen.
Vorstellung von Kaschal und ihrer CSM-Agenda
01:42:55
01:42:55 So, let's start campaigning then. Who are you and what do you do in EVE? Introduce yourself. I don't know, can we book off a double time slot, triple time slot here? No, my name is Cashal Adron. I am the founder and the CEO of EVE Rookies, which is a public community that gets players into fleets. At this point, we're running fleets of every single type that you can possibly think of, over a hundred a month.
01:43:23 Und ja, ich habe ihn in die Gruppe. Und das Jahr, ich wurde der CEO von Wormlife, eine sehr große, um, öffentliche Community. Aber dieses Mal ist es mit C1, C2, C3 und C4 Wormhole, mit Freeport Sinema. So, das ist sehr interessant, denn ich bin natürlich nicht ein Wormholer. So, das war eine interessante Entscheidung. Nicht auf meine 2025 BingoCard, aber hier sind wir, und ich bin bereit für die Challenge.
01:43:52 Out of nowhere, just become a wormhole. I'm told it's more of a mentality than anything else. So, you know, that's at least what CCP Jotun says. I don't know what he means by it, but it's provocative. I'll channel my inner CCP Jotun here. I will just sit up a little bit straighter to try and feel like less of a short king.
01:44:18 Kaschal, du hast du für CSM-20 runn. Du hast du für CSM-20 runn. Was hast du für CSM-20 geholfen, was du für CSM-20 geholfen hast?
01:44:31 You know, my work from CSM18 isn't done. There was the freelance projects, which, as you know, I advocated for pretty hard, that I saw coming to Frutation for CSM19. I would love to get my fingers into that and have a little bit more part of it. I see huge potential for communities to interact with new players and players in general. But my big thing is getting players to talk. And, of course, Everkies Bean.
01:45:00 4.5 years old now, I think. We have players that aren't just brand new anymore, but are kind of like EVE teenagers now. So we want to see them undock and thrive in the game and have activities to do. So, you know, anything to get players undocked is on my agenda this year.
01:45:23 Das ist eigentlich eine interessante Art, wo es zu sagen, es war als EVE Rookies, aber jetzt ist EVE Adolescens. Sie sind ja, sie sind nicht in der Nähe. Sie haben nur neue Herausforderungen und neue Dinge.
01:45:39 Right on. So, what types of gameplay areas? Obviously, we know where your strengths are. You run Incursion fleets, NPSI fleets, 100 a month. That's absolutely bonkers. What are some areas of the game where you're not nearly as involved in or maybe a little bit weaker in, if we want to say weak? So, of course, anything having to do with an Olsav.
01:46:08 Of course, I had to deal with that on CSM18 quite a bit, so I learned a lot. But that is something that I'm not involved in. That's not my day-to-day, and it's one of my weakest points, and I have to rely on other people to teach me. I would say Pokvin is also a very weak area, but I think that's probably the neat thing about, you know, the CSM. There's 12 of us.
01:46:29 So, where, you know, my strength is obviously in the new player experience and community building and getting players in fleets at this point. You know, someone else can be the expert in those things that I'm the weakest at.
01:46:44 Yeah, really well said. We like to have a really well-rounded CSM to cover many experience levels. We know there's never going to be a single candidate that can represent every area of space or just every little element. Eve is very different to almost every single person. Everyone's version of Eve is a little bit different than everyone else's version of Eve. So having rounded experience, incredibly, incredibly important. Indeed.
01:47:13 So, Kshol, you have been on the CSM before, you have watched from the sidelines. What do you think we as CCP and as the CSM together should change in our collaboration to get the most effective way of having this cooperation between us?
01:47:35 I think it goes back to, you know, what Mike was saying earlier in his interview. It's, you know, getting more even representation across the CSM. You know, it's great that NOLSEC goes and gets eight candidates on there, but how many candidates do we need that are small gang and capital warfare?
01:47:57 Wir brauchen die Ariel-Wrens, die Ozs, die Angry Mustaches, um, zu kommen und haben diese Überzeugung der Überzeugung, um, dass CCP kann wirklich in und mine, und, you know, extrakt, dass, uh, die Skills, so dass sie sie, um, um, und nutzen sie, um, in anderen Plätzen.
01:48:21 Ja, es ist eigentlich nett, wenn wir nach, wenn wir nach dem CSM sehen, dass wir nach 2012 haben, sehr viel diversität auf den CSM haben, und ich glaube, es macht den CSM wirklich gut mit CCP. Und ich denke, die Spieler können sehen, dass das auch. Oder wir hoffen, dass das der Fall ist. Aber du hast schon ein paar CSM-Members already. Von den Leuten für CSM 20.
01:48:49 Du hast du mit einem anderen Kandidaten? Ich habe bereits mit meinem Dream Team gespielt. Ich würde wirklich gerne mit Drake, YoungPuke, Mike und natürlich Jujek.
01:49:12 Weil wir alle zusammenarbeiten, die gleiche sind. MPUK ist Faktor Warfare, das ich in diesem Jahr habe. Es hat ein Blast, aber natürlich hat es seine Probleme. Mike, oder Mick, sorry, Mick, weil es die Wormholes ist. Drake, er ist, glaube ich, in die Accessibility und zu denken, über die Spieler mit Disabilities, das ist, auf meine Agenda, constantly mit diesen Spielern. Und natürlich, Dujek, weil...
01:49:41 Er represents die New Player Experience, aber in einem anderen Bereich. None of uns kann eigentlich sein Experten in all der New Borough Experience, weil es so viele Aspects gibt. Es ist einfach so, dass es alles zusammenarbeitet ist und meshes ist. So, ja, das ist mein Dream Team. Ich kann nicht nur einen.
01:50:02 Alright, ich will nicht, wenn ich mich für deine Fähigkeit zwischen den Leuten auswählen, aber... Please don't. Okay, ich will nicht be mean. Instead, ich will nur fragen, wo andere Leute finden dich in dieser Kampf-Pierre? Ich weiß, dass du auch andere Kanäle bist, aber was für dich? So, ich habe viele Interviews jetzt gemacht. Ich habe die Declaration of War in der Mitte der Woche gearbeitet. Ich habe auf Untethered, was, zwei Wochen später, glaube ich. Ich war auf...
01:50:32 The Frontline Federation Report. I was on Shadex Twitch stream. And of course I'm interviewing myself. You can find me on Discord. I am in tons and tons and tons of communities. Discords, including the Eve. I do answer my Eve mail if that one is coming. So yeah, you can find me pretty much anywhere. I'll answer my candidate thread. And yeah, come talk to me. Tell me why you don't undock.
01:51:00 Let's work together. Nice. That's a really good group of podcasts and stuff that you've already been on. Declarations of War is a really cool one. Alexia of Card, people may not know this, but was also on CSM. On CSM, I think, 4 way back in the day. And CSM 7 with some very, very, very cool people, or so I'm told.
01:51:27 I was on that CSM, that's why. Just in case that wasn't... I was just not gonna bring it up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I saw people just like eyes glossing over, but I had to get that one in there. A little brag. So, Cashel, before we leave our interview, do you have any closing remarks you wanna make? You know, even if you don't wanna vote for me because of whatever reason, look at the candidate's expertise and choose your candidates that fit...
01:51:56 dass sie ihre Gainplay-Style representieren. Und bitte vote für all 10. Nicht nur 1 oder 2, weil diese Votes eigentlich matter.
01:52:06 Ja, wirklich gut gesagt. Und es ist eigentlich so schön zu sehen, wie viele candidatoren sind hier auch, zu sagen, hey, wenn du nicht wählst, einfach nur für mich. Das ist super wichtig. Und ich weiß, die Community, Yves University und ein paar anderen, werden ein rundown auf wie die Voting System funktioniert. Die Ranked STV, wie Kachau war, ist es. Du hast 10 candidatoren in Ranked Order gewonnen. So fill es all aus. Es ist wichtig für die Entscheidung.
01:52:36 Vielen Dank.
01:52:57 There's always a few candidates that are within like a handful of votes of getting there. So it's super important. Don't just put your top one, just put a bunch of them in there. All right. On that note, we'll be going back to the holding screen to get the last candidate for today's stream ready. Kachel, thank you so much for your time. Thank you for having me.
Viola Terras CSM-Kampagne für neue Spieler und Klein-Gruppen
01:57:23
01:57:23 Welcome back, everyone. I am CCP Swift, joined by CCP Lumi. I almost just slapped the desk because I'm so excited that I would have deafened you all at home. We are coming to the end of our Day 1 CSN 20 Candidate coverage, where we've had some great interviews going on. But don't worry, we still have Day 2 and Day 3 coming up tomorrow and the day after.
01:57:44 And if it's, you know, not enough of an incentive to hear from some amazing EVE players and CSM20 candidates, there's also some drops that you can win to just be that much cooler as well. Just cherry on top. But without further ado, we've got our final candidate of the day, Viola Terra. How are you doing?
01:58:08 I am doing fine, thank you. I am Viola Teller, CEO of Red of Horizon, living in high-sec and remote space, while also focusing on small-scale content for my corporation and teaching newer players that just recently joined the game or returned after some years, came back, and we're trying to get them into a good position where they can move on and be something great.
01:58:37 So it's your first time running for CSM. Can you tell us a bit about why now? Why CSM20? So I've thought about running for CSM earlier, but I didn't have quite the motivation to go with it. And now I think it's a good year to actually try and run. It's my first run. And yeah.
01:59:07 Joining these interviews is always a good way to get your voice out to our voters. So to inform them a bit better about your campaigning, what topics are you running on? What do you think is most important for you as a CSM candidate? Obviously it's the new player experience.
01:59:32 Wir haben auch viele CSM-Candidaten, die neue Spieler sind. Ich bin auch einer von denen, weil ich glaube, dass neue Spieler sind die Zukunft der EVE Online. Die Zukunft der FCs sind, die die Empty Spaces haben, die Corporations, die einfachen Dinge gehen und in kleinen Gruppen.
02:00:01 That is absolutely right. They are a great counter to the old boomers like me. We can't have just like the old ones just hanging around forever. We need some new blood in there. And that's why it's also great to see new people running for CSM20 as well. It really shakes things up, adds a new great perspective to what people are talking about and just make sure we're staying current on everything.
02:00:25 Das ist absolut der Grund, warum ich für das bin. Die neue Spieler-Experience ist, um die Spieler zu eigentlich bleiben und nicht quittieren, weil sie ein schlechtes Treak hatten. Das kann sofort die Spieler aufhören, und dann wird sie nicht mehr touchieren. Und wir wollen das nicht. Das ist das, was ich für mich. Und wenn ich die Lichte, dann muss ich...
02:00:54 So should you get elected, who are the type of people that you can see yourself representing? And you've already answered that a little bit, but how do you plan to communicate with them and relay information between CCP and those players?
02:01:21 So communication, of course, I'm open for everything. You can write me a mail, you can write me on Discord, I have a Reddit account. Just get it going and I will be open about anything, but it's still under the NDA that comes setting your way, because it's not the best thing to break, but exit.
02:01:49 The second thing that I also want to support are smaller groups, because I'm running a smaller corporation, like I said, living in Wermhall and Isaac, so you will need to obviously work together more in those spaces and basically
02:02:12 So we just have more working together instead of working alone. And just spending your day alone, that's not what we want of a game that we all love and play for years now. So if there's one specific change you could be the driver behind in your time on the CSM, what would that be?
02:02:43 Das wäre absolut die introduction zu dem Spiel für neue Spieler. Das ist etwas, das braucht viel Arbeit.
02:02:52 und kann sich noch ein bisschen verbessern. Aber mit den neuen Features, wie den AIR Career Programmen und die Spieler eine Richtung zu gehen. Und auch für die kleine Gruppen, Sie brauchen Visibilität. Also, wenn ein neues Spieler nicht weiß, EVE-Universität, sie wissen nicht die Community, EVE-RUKIE, das ist auch da, für die Spieler, wo sie ihre Füße gehen können.
02:03:21 Und ich würde gerne sehen, dass es mehr Visibilität gibt, dass sie ihren Platz besser finden und besser finden und die anderen Gruppen haben mehr Spieler.
02:03:40 Yeah, really well said. It's always like a struggle to find like a player and their perfect match with a corporation. And it can be really intimidating for some people. It's like kind of choosing like a university or a sports team or just any number of things. It's a hard decision that a lot of people think of. Speaking of hard decisions, voting for a CSN20 candidate.
02:04:08 Es ist wirklich schwierig. Du musst jemanden mit deinem Interesse bestellen, jemanden mit deinem Interesse bestellen, jemanden mit deinem Interesse bestellen, jemanden mit deinem Interesse bestellen, jemanden mit deinem Interesse bestellen, jemanden mit deinem Interesse bestellen, jemanden mit deinem Interesse bestellen, jemanden mit deinem Interesse bestellen, jemanden mit deinem Interesse bestellen, jemanden mit deinem Interesse bestellen, jemanden mit deinem Interesse bestellen.
02:04:29 Das wäre Kershal, die auch eine Plattform für andere CSMs und die OpenThread in ihrer Discord, während sie selbst selbst für CSM ist. Das ist eine große Ehre, und ich würde gerne sehen. Kershal hat heute schon sehr viel genannt, also ich bin sicher, dass du nicht die einzige, die gerne mit ihr gerne mit ihr werdet. Oh ja.
02:04:58 So maybe from the people who are less on the same page as you, say, the low seconded, like the bigger groups, the null side groups maybe, which one of those would you possibly like to work with as a counterpoint to your new player platform? That would most likely be the Youngpuk, what's his name? I really like what he is standing for.
02:05:33 Okay. Oh, we were just saying YoungPuke2, we were agreeing, yeah, CSM 19 alum YoungPuke2. Exactly. That's someone I would like to happen to have or happen to work with. Right on. Yeah, it's cool to see just, you know, people come from different areas of space that kind of have the same methodology between how they approach the CSM.
02:06:05 Reaching out to players in their communities, be they friends or foes alike, and trying to distill some problem statements, share it with CCP, and then share what they're working with on the CSM to those players and beyond. It's a really cool way to do it, and it makes for very effective CSM. So you've made some excellent choices there. Kashal and Youngpuk are both phenomenal at doing that. Exactly.
02:06:37 And then lastly, we're always running out of time on these things. I wish we could expand them to be 20 minutes, but then it would just be, excuse me, Lumie and I talking for like 30 hours straight. And most people don't want that. I'm sure they have enough of us after this weekend already. Yeah, but are there any closing statements? Are there any shows that you would like to be featured on or that you already are featured on?
02:07:07 um to so i kind of can learn a little bit more about you
02:07:11 I mean, I would be glad to be on any shows. I'm planning to actually go on more interviews. As you said, not the time as of now to do that. It's like the first thing now going forward. And even as a closing, if you don't want to vote for me, it's totally fine. But do make sure you get your vote out. It's very important that everyone, even new players, get their vote out. Make sure you read everyone's campaign.
02:07:41 View the interviews and make your own pictures of them. Don't be influenced by others that may not like them and just talk them down. Just make your own picture, vote for yourself and you think be more fitting to you and make sure, just make sure you vote. That is very important.
Wichtige Informationen zur CSM-20-Wahl
02:08:03
02:08:03 It is. And the voting period actually starts on the 27th of October. So after the Alliance Tournament voting period will start on the 27th of October and then run for two weeks this year. Sometimes we only have the CSN voting running for one week, but it's actually going to be running from the 27th until the 10th of November this time. So as Viola was mentioning, make sure to vote as soon as the elections open. And as other candidates were very humbly saying, if you're not going to vote for them, just make sure to vote.
02:08:32 Fill out as many as you can on your ballot from 1 through 10. All right. All right. But that will close this interview. We'll go back to a quick holding screen and then CCP Swift and I will appear for one last time tonight, but more tomorrow. Thank you so much for your time, Fiola. Thank you for having me.
Abschluss und Ankündigung weiterer CSM-20-Coverage
02:10:14
02:10:14 All right, everyone. Thank you for watching this first batch of CSM20 interviews. There will be two more to come. Tomorrow we're back at 1400 UTC for, I believe, seven interviews. And then later that day will be back for more. And of course, we'll also be back on Sunday.
02:10:36 Do you have any last remarks for the people watching now? No, just thanks for watching, guys. It's really, really fun to be able to do this, to learn more about some candidates. There are a lot of people running for the first time, which is always a fantastic part of the CSM experience. And we have some names that you've seen before as well. As Lumia was saying, we're going to be back here right in just the blink of an eye.
02:11:04 So, yeah, there will be a lot of CSM still ahead of us.
02:11:34 So thank you all for watching. Thank you all for continuing to watch. It is amazing that you guys are willing to chat with us for so long just so you can make some informed decisions when CSM voting does come around, just around the corner on the 27th, just like a little bit over a week away. But for now, we will see you. We'll let you go play Spaceships.
02:12:00 Undock, have some fun, and we'll see you bright and early here tomorrow afternoon. See you tomorrow.
