CSM 8 Results
Well, they've released the ballots for CSM 8, and unsurprisingly, I still haven't won. What you can get from the ballots, after processing them, is the following output . So, there were a total of 17 rounds, With 31 candidates, and 14 being elected, this is pretty obvious stuff. With the way the Wright STV […] Read more
Using the Eve Central API with PHP
We're going back to basics here. One thing that many sites, which are using the SDE from Eve, want to do, is access price data from EVE Central api . I don't do this myself, having a EMDR relay , and consumer to provide my market data, but back when I was starting out, I […] Read more
Personal Disappointment - CSM8
Well, I didn't get elected. It's a disappointment, but I have to admit, not an unexpected outcome. I still think it was worth doing however. This is obviously the fault of my Goonswarm paymasters (That check bounced, you bastards! I'm waiting on my replacement!) who didn't tell their people to vote for me. But in […] Read more
Dev Track Day 2 - Part 2
This was the WebGL session. It's great. Really really great. The only problem is, potentially, delivering the models to the clients. Other than that, it's wonderful. If you can take the loading time, it's great. https://github.com/ccpgames/ go fork it. Not a huge amount to say really. It was demos of graphics stuff. which looked great. Read more
Dev Track - Day 2 - Part 1
Just a small gap between the SSO session and the WebGL session. The SSO looks to be fairly simple to work with. It's a shame that the demo mobile applications which were demonstrated didn't use a native browser, using an embedded one, which is far from good practice with OAUTH2, but they do make them […] Read more
Dev Track - Day 1
Just a quick post, jotted down before I go to get some lunch this morning. the Dirty breakfast at the laundromat is calling my name, and it's quite persuasive. You can see the sessions at http://www.twitch.tv/ccpdevtrack , just hit the videos link on the right hand side. I'd especially recommend you watch the legal one, […] Read more
Cache Scraping - Worrying your Players and Third Party Developers
First off, I'll reference t his post which removes a lot of the concerns which this raised. If you're fully up on what's going on, skip ahead to the suggestions I have made below. This means you, CCP . The short version is: If you're not doing anything else that's banned, cache scraping will not […] Read more
Manufacturing 101
The basics of manufacturing in EVE are pretty simple at their core: Get a blueprint, get some minerals/components, put in a manufacturing job, deliver it when it completes. But as with most things in EVE, there are little twiddly bits to take into account, various bits of maths it's helpful to know. This post is […] Read more
Suggested Ballot: CSM8 trail
Well, me at or near the top of the ballot sheet would be good.. That'd be good. As for the rest, well, I like to think that the people who are going to vote for me don't need to be told which way to vote for anyone else. That they're the kind of people who […] Read more
Possible new contract types
This isn't a CSM post. Though if I do get in, I'd certainly be suggesting them. There's been a suggestion in past CSM minutes that they're going to be looking at the contract system, adding new contract types into it. I've had a few thoughts on this, in part spurred on by a discussion with […] Read more
