New Eden ice bot lottery!

Posted on 22:00 by Unknown
Update: the lottery is cancelled due to lack of interest

I want to give more support to the New Order than ganking bots and AFK-leeches myself (flashy red when less than a week old) and seeding the market of the HQs. I've already donated ISK and could more, but you might noticed that I'm rather fan of business solutions than bureaucratic.

So I hereby announce the New Eden ice bot lottery! Every Sunday one billion ISK will be randomly distributed. To enter the lottery for the one billion prize you have to do the following:

Gank a Code violating (bot or AFK leech) miner in the ice belt. To verify that he was in the ice belt, he must have ice in the cargohold on the kill report. We don't have the numbers to cover every belt and grav site, we must focus our efforts to one zone and now that's ice. Also, Ice mining has the most bots. If he just started mining and is empty, you are out of luck. T1 barges are ineligible, an Orca or Ice-hauling freighter worth 3 tickets (if they have ice in them).

Find the kill on zkillboard.com. If it's not there, then no one loaded it up. Go and bug the guy with the killing blow to add his limited API to zkillboard.com. If it's done, the kill will be uploaded.

Copy and paste the following to an eve-mail:
Dear former owner of the following items,
[shipkill zkillboard link], [podkill zkillboard link if any]

You were terminated because you violated the New Halaima Code of Conduct http://www.minerbumping.com/p/the-code.html

The New Order is fighting against botting and AFK leeching and NOT to grief people. We are for the betterment of miners. Less bots/leeches: higher prices for active players! http://greedygoblin.blogspot.com/2013/01/why-was-i-ganked-while-mining.html

Also please look up your kill reports on the zkillboard link and see how many other Code violators were slain by us. We are mighty and will continue pursue inappropriate behavior. Please read the linked posts and think about your mining future!

Send this EVE-mail to the target and Botslayer Goblin. This is needed to verify that the letter actually reached the target.

I will collect these mails and do a Sunday extra post of the ganks of the week. People don't really read my blog on weekends so it's a good place for the kills. After that I'll make a random roll and select the winner. I'll figure out how to use the dice of Chribba.

To encourage people do the smart thing and fit for T2 or high meta (see tomorrows post), the distribution of the 1B: everyone on the kill report receives the money directly from me, 8M for every % damage they caused. The better you are, the more money. The remaining 200M is given to the guy who first sent me the kill. 100M for his extra efforts of submitting the mail and 100M with the instruction to forward it to the scout of the gank! If I'm on the kill, still do the same, I won't process it automatically. If the winner kill includes me, I won't get a share.

PS: Sugar wrote a great post how a mining op should look like. Hint: not with AFK-leeching Macks. Feel free to recommend it to miners.
