corp
Still waiting.
I went looking through the thread last night and it turns out that
Zehive is the current CEO of Hidden Fun Stuff, which is the previous bay12 corp. He's obviously stopped playing Eve, but if he's willing if can get a free four hour reactivation which would be long enough to transfer the corp over. But he hasn't logged on here in a week and a half and I haven't received a response from him.
We could of course make a new corp, but last I heard there was no consensus either on name nor base of operations. As for name, I think Armok's Beard, Armok's Salvage and Mining, and Armoks-something or another which still being considered. But nobody really seemed to like any of the proposed names.
As to location, two have been proposed: Ordion, which has four people very vocally insisting that they like it...mostly because that happens to be where they already are. And Vourassi, which nobody is very enthusiastic about, but a few people have expressed willingness. The most most common two opinion I've heard so far are either "don't know, don't care" or "no strong opinions, but don't like Ordion because of X and/or don't like Vuorassi because of Y."
The problems with Ordion are that it's:
* In the middle of absolutely nowhere
* Is far from nullsec
* Has a weak trade market
The problems with Vuorassi are:
* Local pirates are Guristas, which means they jam
* Local pirates are Guristas, which means Amarr players are stuck doing weak damage because Guristas resist lasers
Running proposed solution is to have multiple offices, but spreading ourselves out with a 45 minute jump distance seems like a bad idea to me.
EDIT: Disregard below.
Mostyn has to be CEO.
Also, we need a CEO still. Mostyn, despite being the one pushing most strongly for us to form a corp rather than use the one I volunteered a week ago, says he doesn't want to be CEO. I won't be leaving the corp I'm presently CEO of myself. And I think Anja has said she won't be leaving hers either. So if we're going to do this we need a volunteer.
If Zehive doesn't show up soon to transfer Hidden Fun Stuff over, then probably what needs to happen is for somebody to decide on a name, make a corp and start telling everyone "This is the corp. Join it." Base of operations can be decided later. Though if we end up stuck in Ordion just because of the people who are already there, odds are good that a few people won't bother to make the move. It's a lousy system.
