Event Team

[Karlotta]

If you're interested in helping out with this tell me why you want to be part of this team and what you could bring to the team.

Back in the day I proposed something that as far as I know led to a few expansions of the previous "event" types, although it never really got implemented the way I had hoped for. I'd be interested in creating events that fulfill the following criteria:

- Events will be diverse, but the same type of event will be repeatable without much work. For example, a "Dublin Gold Rush" where every once in a while the gold price or drop rates are boosted for 2-3 days. Or a "major offensive" type event along a longer lasting conflict that gives a killcount+cash reward for a while, but the conflict will continue to happen for involved chars after the event too

- Most events will concentrate activity into places that are already busy, and easily accessible for new people, which will continue to be interesting after the event is ober. For example, a "gold rush" will encourage people to make new chars to mine/haul/pirate there, but the same route will continue to be a very good one also when the event isnt active, even if not as good as during the event-boost. Event will be a tool to create "habits" of players that concentrates activity into predictable and re-occurring every day patterns.

- Events will give an advantage through strength in numbers more than through strength in skill. For example, a jd4-jump trading+mining event between busy locations

- Making events open for as many factions as possible so people can use their favorite characters/factions instead of making throw-away chars so they can participate

- An additional kill counter for individual chars will continue to sum up over all events

- Before-hand "coincidental knowledge" such as "I wonder where those derelict stations or lootable wrecks may possible be" or "thank goodness events are always during times I can play and in places/factions where I have chars" so the same people make billions in scidata wont be a thing

- If there are lasting consequences for either side such as loss or gain of a base, official factions on both sides will have to agree to the terms, and indies on either side shouldnt be negatively affected by the outcome
