This week on Talking in Stations, Harvey Skywarker dubs the war in the south The Trinosaur War, wherein TEST alliance and Legacy Coalition are engaged against a myriad of enemies. Pandemic Legion has officially joined the fight over Immensea by moving a massive fleet of supercarriers, titans, and force auxiliaries down to Tenerfis to join Fraternity and Holy League against Legacy Coalition. On the other side of the map in Eha, The Bloc – a Caldari Militia corporation – successfully defended a fortizar with NC again Gallante Militia.

This week on Talking in Stations, we look down South – in the region of Immensea – where there have been some strategic alliance movements. We will talk with Vily from TEST and Garst Tyrell from Triumvirate. Are these activities the opening shots to something much bigger? In our second half, we look at the diversity of CSM 2018 and what it means for the soul of Eve. Is Eve missing out on opportunities for player engagement and interaction because most of the CSM candidates are very homogeneous in their thinking?

This week on Talking in Stations we are going to look at the comeback of Circle of Two with Da Winci. Then we’ll discuss the unfolding drama between the Eve Online and Star Citizen communities with Jibrish. We’ll take a look at the CSM election results with Suitonia and with the player one old chat log away from the CSM, Tikktokk. Rounding out today’s show to give us this week’s News of the Universe we have Hugh Caswakk.

The election results are in for CSM13. The council of stellar management, CSM for short, has concluded with a live-streamed broadcast of the winners. Voting tallies were released a day later.

This is the 13th time in 10 years that players of EVE online have elected a select group of representatives to be their voice at the table with CCP, the makers of EVE online, plan new features for the game.

Thirty thousand votes were cast for 48 candidates. Ten of those candidates become full CSM members. Seven of the 10 were incumbent CSM members. Of the three new arrivals, all were from null-sec.

Large null-sec alliances now have eight of the ten seats on CSM, half of those were from a single alliance – Goonswarm. Goonswarm is by far the largest Alliance in EVE when measured by players count. They have over 30,000 characters. That is more than second and third place combined, Pandemic Horde, TEST alliance, respectively.

Of the ten CSM, all but one consider themselves active player versus player combatants. Absent from CSM were players that specialized in specific playstyles – faction war, wormholes, exploration, small-scale production, mining, small corporations, solo or casual playing.

The worry for some players is that representation is not balanced, those with specific playstyles will either take a back seat or be satisfied with proxy representation from null-sec delegates.

On this episode of CONVERSTATIONS, we’ll talk to winners and losers of CSM. First, we’ll hear from Commander Aze who has unsuccessfully campaigned for a seat at the table for five years. We’ll also hear from New CSM Member Killah Bee, along with Lady Scarlet, a veteran EVE diplomat that put Killah Bee at the top of several alliance ballots.
