Over One Trillion Two Hundred Six Billion in Shares Sold


Pow! There it is.

Black Pedro kept the spirit of EVE alive with his purchase of an additional 1,000 shares. Said purchase sent us past the 1,205 billion isk mark, but more importantly, it was made with pure intentions. That's the real reason Black Pedro earned a Supreme Protector's Tip of the Hat™.

Another milestone reached: zyk0 purchased his first 1,000 shares, thereby sending us past the 1,206 billion isk mark. But zyk0 didn't earn a Supreme Protector's Tip of the Hat™.

Are you awake and fully alert, dear reader? These posts don't contain boilerplate, no matter how often we pass a billion isk mark. If you weren't paying close attention, reread the previous paragraph, because something unprecedented occurred here.


At the very moment I was processing new share purchases, I saw an unusual event unfolding live in MinerBumping chat.


A freighter belonging to zyk0 had just been destroyed! Controversy ensued.


zyk0 was a new shareholder. I mean, he was really new--brand ganking new.


I had a hunch about what was going on. Agents of the New Order, always trust your hunches. They're practically facts.


zyk0 immediately confessed that his purchase of 1,000 shares occurred after his freighter started getting bumped.


As always, perfect justice prevailed. Everyone walked away happy. zyk0 was allowed to keep his shares, but he didn't get a Supreme Protector's Tip of the Hat™ due to the circumstances surrounding the purchase.


In a world where the powerful are so often marked by corruption and incompetence, it's nice to see a regime where everything goes the way it's supposed to. Simply put, the Code works.

  8. This story shall the good man teach his son,
    And Crispin Crispian shall ne'er go by,
    From this day to the ending of the world,
    But we in it shall be remembered;
    We few, we happy few, we band of brothers.
    For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
    Shall be my brother.

    2. Why? Our current content keeps you crawling to our blog to whine and fill our buckets with your tears.

  17. At the end, zyk0 appeared to be repentant for his attempted act of deceit. He might need a probationary period, but otherwise he might be back on track to being CODE. compliant once again. \o/

  22. "I had a hunch about what was going on. Agents of the New Order, always trust your hunches. They're practically facts."

    my hunch: most code pilots are inhumane people that get a kick out of harrasing people online deu to the simple fact that there can never be a person that can retaliate

    Ergo Fact by your own admission and statement.

    1. Welcome, registered user Icey. It's not harassment--it's elite PvP--exactly the sort of thing that EVE Online is famous for. We prey on bad pilots and enjoy the thrill of the hunt. Some capsuleers improve and become compliant, some of them double down on bad choices and write angry tear mails, and some of them dedicate themselves to opposing us. In James 315 Territory citizens and squatters alike have something to feel passionate about. The Code Always Wins!

    2. Dear lawrence,

      The "ingame" mechanic called elite pvp equals the personal wish of the controlling person to harras people please do understand the difference although i must understand this might be hard for you.

      also on a side note i do whole heartedly support your efforts to kill bad players in an attempt for them to learn and get better at it.

    3. Dear professor Lawton if killing people who do not have the ability to fight back is elite PvP then shooting unarmed people is elite warfare. You see how it does not add up right. If you make the statement that this is roleplay then try roleplaying as a real person who actually says that they are being elite by killing unarmed people.

      If your still ok with roleplaying as a person who thinks it is ok to kill unarmed people then it means your ok with it in real life because you can accept it.

      The point of sandbox games is to allow you to be who you are deep down inside. So that is you deep down inside, a person who thinks its good to kill unarmed people.

    4. Dear anon 8:11.

      the concept of a pirate killing a unarmed defensless target is allot older than the concept of eve, if said target would pay attention said target would never get killed.

  24. Yeah, you should see this POG's tears on the previous post. And out of all of his new wall of tears he only capitalized nazis and isis. Sad.
    And he still has yet to address the fact that he misattributed a Shakespeare quote to US Soldiers and got super upset about it.
    True grunts wouldn't whine anonymously on a blog about a video game.
