There are many that do not draw on the treasury... or only draw on it for ganks that were actually "worth" it. <br />And for those of us that are happy to pay mercs to war dec people... well that has nothing whatsoever to do with the treasury.<br /><br />There are also a number of solo gankers that do not loot the ships they kill, do not loot their own ganking ships (unless of course the miners are so AFK that one can fly out to the belt again after the timer has worn off).... and who gank out of belief. Spending private ISK for the cause... so that EVE is still, at least, fun!<br /><br />I know many more New Order gankers operating outside of CODE than inside...I think you have fundamentally misunderstood a couple of things... also what the New Order treasury is!Inquisitor Gnomonhttp://i.imgur.com/GgvqTTZ.jpgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359240470593955814.post-29745759099528173972014-05-24T06:26:11.224+00:002014-05-24T06:26:11.224+00:00"First of all, I don't consider the free ..."First of all, I don't consider the free miners or myself as rebels, we didn't vote for you, so you have no right to impose your will on us, so we will fight you until the end."<br /><br />Who do you think you're talking to?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359240470593955814.post-40847381668633352392014-05-24T03:16:37.238+00:002014-05-24T03:16:37.238+00:00First of all, I don't consider the free miners...First of all, I don't consider the free miners or myself as rebels, we didn't vote for you, so you have no right to impose your will on us, so we will fight you until the end.<br /><br />Secondly, if you knew anything about me or my team you would know that we are about saving miners.

That is why the treasury is a good indicator of who is winning.<br /><br />You'll keep reimbursing your gankers for their lost ships even though they are no longer making a profit, and then the most devout will have to start making donations out of their own pockets to make it seem like you are still winning. Finally they will become weary and give up ganking for something more fun in EVE. Like fighting gankers. Then there will be nothing left, or at least just a shell of the New Order's former glory.<br /><br />The Mittani says that war in EVE is a battle of wills, and I agree with him. I believe that the collective will of the Free Miners of Highsec is much stronger than the New Order. I don't believe you are up to the challenge of an organized resistance. <br /><br />But we will see soon enough won't we?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17629474829235255027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359240470593955814.post-37061653779115736782014-05-24T02:10:01.048+00:002014-05-24T02:10:01.048+00:00Alana, from what I know their main objective is to...Alana, from what I know their main objective is to prevent as many ganks as possible. My guess is they'll have very minor effect on certain areas, not affecting overall trend. It'll be hard to attribute any change in numbers of dead miners to CODE activity or Xan's counter-effort though - as we see, the natural fluctuations in ganking metrics are rather high.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359240470593955814.post-50085594851884468732014-05-24T02:06:29.690+00:002014-05-24T02:06:29.690+00:00Are you trying to raise cost-per-kill or to save r...Are you trying to raise cost-per-kill or to save rebel miners?<br />If the cost of ganking goes up but miners die in same amounts, do you consider your mission a success?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359240470593955814.post-82785900455670840252014-05-24T00:30:54.119+00:002014-05-24T00:30:54.119+00:00Let's try something simpler.

For example, you may concentrate on preventing specific Agents from carrying on their duty, yet less famous figures of New Order fill the niche, keeping the level of disassembled Retrievers intact.

Better yet, what do you think of using a sampling of just the top 20 or 40 revenue producing agents. Sort of like the Dow Jones. Can you eve-mail me a list of your top 40 agents?

Personally I would recommend against using solely CODE. killboard for this metric, since many of Agents of New Order operate from external corps. Probably fetching all the relevant ships' losses (mining barges, exhumers, freighters) from the zkillboard and then analyzing the composition of killing fleet will work, but again I'll be waiting for your updates on this topic.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359240470593955814.post-34800756691586541832014-05-23T19:47:47.290+00:002014-05-23T19:47:47.290+00:00Well I never thought I'd say this here but ah....Well I never thought I'd say this here but ah... that's not a bad idea.
