The draw of 0.0 is strong indeed
I still feel it within me, empire carebear though I am.
I can only assume that the power of 0.0’s allure is what caused my Derelik Trading Company venture to go nowhere. Though I was quite capable of making money supplying the Derelik region, I was staggeringly unable to bring people to the corporation unless they were newbies (who proceeded to either quit without telling me or jump ship to their own corporation after I taught them how to play). I actually did get one good experienced player, but that was after a lot of effort chasing others.
So while there are tons of carebears in empire, they’re either new or in corps and not looking for another one. Bah, bah I say. Oh well, as anybody who’s read the two entries below this one can probably guess, I have a new project to step in to take place of DERTC. I’ll still be playing Eve, but I’m not going to have the time or inclination to be a CEO of an active corporation while doing the card game.
My new long-term in-Eve project: piloting a Nidhoggur. Yeah, I know they’re the worst carrier, but maybe CCP will fix it by the time I get it, and even then my tech 2 large artillery would benefit from Minmatar Battleship V quite nicely anyway. Of course Dominixes benefit from Gallente Battleship V plenty as well, but I’ll just try to put that one out of my mind.
Reading my thread in the market forum, it does make me feel good to hear that people would have been or still are willing to help out with DERTC, but DERTC would just be too time consuming for me with this new project that wasn’t on the horizon (for me, anyway) a month ago.
Thanks for the support anyway everybody, and may I get a chance to greet you on the space lanes some time in the future.
