Sorry, I've been moving this week, I haven't been on the Internet much. I have 1285 unread messages in the Biomassed Skype channel too. Will probably be 2000 before I have the time to read through them.

Finished listening to the episode, didn't know I sounded that loud and clear lol. But ya earlier with talk about those strongboxes they do need to do something about us having so many of these boxes. Maybe increasing the drop rate of keys or with player trading enabling us to trade isk for keys and/or some sort of key crafting.
Should Legion be on the ps4?

Another great episode. Good work guys.
As for the boxes, I think CCP should add key fragments, and make them drop more regularly (or make them more common for mission rewards). That way there's still a significant benefit to buying the AUR keys, but acquiring keys isn't such a lottery.
Best PvE idea ever!

I think either significantly more keys or much higher grade of loot from the chests. Either way they need to adjust something.
299 boxes and about 5 keys.

I worry about the pay-to-win factor coming into play with increasing the loot too much. The last thing we want is to have a situation where officer gear became the standard for PC, and everyone was expected to shell out a few bucks before each match. I think officer gear works really well as being very rare and very powerful, that you're afraid to loose. I wouldn't have a problem with more PRO gear though, since that's available to everyone.

That's a valid point, Vell0cet. As a lottery, it's arguably much less pay-to-winnable. But the price for keys is also a bit high for a lottery ticket, in my book.

Poor Hynox sounded like he fell down a well. Once he climbs out, you guys should let him do a live reading of one of his fictions 
Glad Mass Effect was brought up. As Jaysyn would say, that multiplayer was "legit". Would be cool to see Dust take some queues from it.

I am finally getting around to listening to last week's episode.
Strongboxes:
- I have suggested that sometimes sets of 1 to 5 keys should drop in the boxes, so that you feel like if you buy a key you might get lucky and get more keys.
- Greater drop rates on keys in normal salvage would help too.
More involved Strongbox ideas:
- I like the idea of having Faction specific strongboxes where at least you know what faction the loot will be fore. This could also allow faction specific keys to be purchased from the LP store, while having the AUR keys be able to open any box.
- If there were Standard, Rare, and Epic Strongboxes, people would be likely to buy keys to open the Epic Strongboxes. The Rarity would have to govern the minimum rather than the maximum level of the gear, otherwise people would never bother opening Standard Strongboxes.

Awesome episode. The only thing I disagree with was the pushback against the ISK efficiency stat. I get that this would be low for Logis, although they do have crazy WPs to make up for it. One solution would be to give them a commission ISK value on every kill made by the guy they're repping. I'm not sure what would be balanced but anywhere from 25%-100% might work. It would be a "guardian" analog for ISK efficiency.
Best PvE idea ever!

That just means that if it is busy at work and I keep getting interrupted it might take me two days to get through it.

Multistage Approach to taking Districts in PC
I would like to propose a Planetary Conquest winning condition revamp to make Clones a secondary wining condition rather than the primary winning condition as they are in PC now. This is based on Aero Yassavi's well known proposal for Multi Stage Faction Warfare Battles.
Multi Stage Approach:
- Phase 1 (Beachhead):
Modified Ambush match to take a beachhead. 15 minute notification to the defenders (No timer). 8 v 8 battle, with 50 clones available (Possibly give the defenders 60 or 70 clones) After 5 minutes a CRU is dropped. The attacking team needs to hack the CRU and hold it for 3 minutes, or clone the defenders to win. If the attackers win, then the 24 hour timber is started. If the defenders win, there are no further battles.
- Phase 2 (Take down the Defense Network):
If the Attackers win the Beachhead, then after a timer there will be a Domination style match, where the attackers are trying to take out the defender's District Defense Computer. 16 v 16 with 180 clones. Only the Attackers have an MCC. The defenders hold the point at the start of the match, and the Null cannons fire at the attacker's MCC as long as the Defenders control the point. When the Attackers hack the objective the Null cannons stop firing and after 5 minutes the virus will take out the District Defense Computer. So attackers need to hold the point for 5 minutes to win. Defenders need to destroy the attacker's MCC to win. If the attackers win, a timer for Phase 3 begins. If the defenders win the match is followed by a 16 v 16 Ambush match 5 minutes later where the defenders have to drive out the last holdouts from the attacking force. If the attackers win the Ambush match, then it spawns a new Domination match after 5 minutes.
- Phase 3 (Final Push):
Once the District Defense Network is down, control of the Null cannons revert to the local terminals, and the Defenders have to stage from an MCC. So you have a standard Skirmish match. If the attackers win they get the District. If the Defenders win, they can reboot their District Defense Network, and 5 minutes later a Phase 2 Domination match begins.
- Summery:
To take a district you must win an Ambush, timer, Domination, timer, Skirmish.
To defend a district you must drive them back in revers order and win the final Ambush.
Battle progression happens over 3 days. First Ambush is immediate, then Dom after a timber, then Skirm after a timber.
There is only 5 minutes between battles when the Defenders win and the progression goes back a step.
- Narrative:
To take a district you have to win a Beachhead, Take down the District Defense Computer, and Push the defenders out of the District.

I was too busy working on my full Planetary Conquest proposal to read the rest of the forums, so I am only seeing this post now.
I do have to give you guys credit for providing many great ideas and getting me thinking on this topic. I really like how people on your broadcast usually argue both sides of an issue and provide a lot of supporting detail. Much of my work involved synthesizing other people's ideas, and a lot of the original stuff I come up with involves how to link other people's seemingly unrelated idea together in an unified whole.

Just finally listened to the "Praise Be to the Fish Lord" episode.
Lol, @ Soraya. He gets stuck on something and there is just simply nobody that can convince him he's wrong.
Window timers are bad, but setting default timers that are locked to districts based upon player participation in the game from throughout the world. Please CCP, please, please, please, please just ignore any and all recommendations from that dude.
Low payouts ensure that only the best are running decent gear.
