That's exactly what I was thinking.

So, what have we learned?

Well, Drake was orbiting the Dev actors and the NPC's they spawned in did not target him.

CCP now has the ability to set NPC's to selectively target.

This means that next time there is a Sansha event, TS-F can do more than act like howler monkeys in local.

Is this extending beyond Guristas and Angels? Or can we assume they'll get 'all' the piwates involved?

Also, glad you got to be there TSF :P

I did like the 'arms length' comment though hee hee

They changed their stance p. quickly once Drake started owning faces.

In all serious though they need to employ cyno jammers for the 'small scale' live events or it will be TEST alliance ASCI penises in permanent local  for each and every event

Yeah, that's not a horrible idea, though the locals will complain.

The hell with the locals?

They can bring a conventional fleet and dedicate some time to the event like everyone else.

If you are going to troll you should at least have to spend some time to do it.

Not keen on a cynojammer idea.

First of all, I can just see how the WH low and null player populations will absolutely hate our guts for it (because, we all know, live event = large RP crowd playing along) not to mention the repercussions that CCP would have to pay for it.

Well, once low-sec Cynojammers are a thing, theres really no reason why the live event actors couldn't shove one up.

But this system was really populated with Evokes to?

Incursions are cynojammed, so this is nothing new.
By this analogy, other pirates might want to jam system before declaring about their attack intentions, since this will definitely bring attention of 'cyno-capable' alliances.

For residents, it will be in their own interests to join defenders side, to deal with pirates faster and remove cyno jammer.

And only one system should be jammed, so other systems can be used to jump carriers in with subcaps inside.

This.

I don't see why an event that will last maybe one hour in a single system or constellation, with a cynojammer, will annoy people. People just love to complain, and you can make that statement x100 with nullsec whinners. They are so used to see CCP answering their slighest whims that they behave like spoiled brats.

So how's the post-op?

Any resolution with the planetside Guristas?

Confirming CCP can tell the NPCs not to shoot you. I had was never even aggroed once during the entire course of both the angel events.

Could this be DUST tied events?

I'm rating that as fairly likely tbh.

Seeing as the actors themselves weren't shot by the NPCs since sansha live events started a year or so ago, and the actors were players in game mechanics sense, they had to have that thingie to stop sansha rats from aggressing those Revneants.

As for the cyno jammer, I guess it's not worth the hassle for CCP. Actors don't have crazy faction loot, so they're not drawing PLesque attention, and cynojamming systems would prevent some people from coming and witnessing the live event DUST advertising (all the events so far included orbit to ground actions, so it's fairly obvious), thus it would be counterproductive.
