CCP hypocrisy is hardly new.

The second time I did the fiction competition, Zapatero got in touch to have the winner potentially be published in EON. I've never heard anything from CCP as far as items for Backstage, but then we also don't run a lot of contests or giveaways.

1) Having someone who writes a piece of Eve Fiction potentially included in EON is a cool, but it seems like that takes a bit of effort on the winners part.

2) Clearly the staff need to run some contests/giveaways!

24 hours old now and the source is TMC so get out your salt lick and all of that.

The ships tend to sell for 10-20 billion ISK meaning that the gift was worth 300-600 billion ISK.

That is upwards of 1000 plex!  Or if you bought 28 chucks... 35 x 28 pack @ ~$490 +1 x 12 pack @ ~$210 + 1 x 6 pack @ ~$105 + 1 x 2 pack @ ~$35.

The gift CCP gave these guys is worth ~$17,500.

A question to the live events team about possible rewards for live events, received a response that said that the events team are unable to provide rewards that have an ingame value attached, and that the only direct item rewards would be any loot from destroyed actor ships, which is strictly limited to T1/meta and T2 items.

I'm tempted to ask the same question, waiting for the answer, and then asking why is that Blink is getting a different answer.

Given that the Live Events team did do that 'scavenger hunt' giveaway over the summer, I suspect this probably falls into the issue of internal rules regarding which teams are allowed to do giveaways - i.e., reward giveaways probably have to be run past marketing and/or IA before they can be done.

I'm trying so hard to not bittervet these days and find fresh fun. It's really hard when you come from the blooder background
