Orbital Strike on all 32 of us.

21 gun salute for us. And a killmail that shows we existed and what our best/favorite gear we wore.

(For those who don't know, an EVE killmail is saved to the server which can be looked up via API like so.)

What do you guys think?

EDIT: So far, the response has been pretty positive. I've reached out to some of my Ivy League colleagues in EVE University to see if I can drum up some EVE support if they are willing to coordinate with us and drop the strikes.

Right now, I'm hoping if there's some more people out there with capture cards along with someone that can capture the sound.

Finally, if you are interested in being a part of it, be sure to comment! Also remember, it won't be just a single 21 gun salute... the idea can expand to a 21 gun salute across multiple districts. So if there are some corps out there willing to participate, let us know! Nothing like having multiple 21 gun salutes all across Molden Heath - a scorched earth and wall of tribute that every person participating can be on.

I just handed off my PS3 to a friend to play Tales of Xillia, so I can't join.

I can drop for you guys though if you want. I think I've still got a toon in MH with a Coercer.

Say we get 3 destroyers with 7 guns each (even though only one ship will shoot) there will be 21 guns pointed at the district xD. But they aren't firing all 21 guns at the same time.. In any case, there will be plenty of time to get off 3 strikes. We probably aren't even going to really fight for the districts either so we could drop more than just a 21 gun barrage.

If possible, one player stands back to get some screens of before and during them rushes in to die himself. If you get 7 turrets pointed at the ground it should be long enough. That's another thing I was thinking of and would love to do: 1) Hit the vehicle limit and let the fireworks be even bigger. 2) Get someone with a capture card to record all of it and put the shenanigans on Youtube for the memories. I can only imagine what the comms would be like too. I hope that can be captured as well! CB Vet // Logi Bro // @KazeEyrou Kaze's Helpful Links

If this gets more support there might be someone able to record comms. We have about a couple of months to plan this out anyways so I'm pretty sure we can get someone who can record the sound.

I can capture video and comms simultaneously and will willingly do so provided i can make the date! =ƒÿä Vlad! Good to see you buddy! That's great. That means we've got 2 people able to capture video! I've updated the OP and I hope to see more support for this. CB Vet // Logi Bro // @KazeEyrou Kaze's Helpful Links

A final battle on the final day (May 30th): https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=225243&find=unread I will still be keeping this idea alive, but the logistics of this operation far exceeds what Lightning's Final Quafe Battle.

Are we looking for the near future (before the end of February), staggered over several points in the next few months, or a songle date at the end of May? Just curious so I can plan accordingly. We're look at either on May 14th (since 514), or that date and on. Last few weeks of Dust to give it a feel of a final sendoff. But if there's a lot of support (which it looks like there is), we might start from May 14th and continue until the closing of the servers so everyone has a chance to do this. By the way, I'll be a little delayed on updating the list, but I'll make sure we have something to show there's plenty of support to do this (in case EVE pilots want to know).

Kaze Eyrou DUST University Ivy League 3436	Posted - 2016.05.14 06:14:00 - [13] - Quote Hey guys! I'm so glad to see the continued support for this thread! Seeing this support has lifted my spirits to make this be a thing and maybe even leave a dent in the EVE universe. One where we go out with a bang. I'll see what I can do for channel support as I'll need an EVE toon to help with moderating it. As for the dates, I'm looking at the calendar and the last weekend of May looks to be good. May 27th through May 30th seem to be good dates. Pencil it in for now but I might extend it back a bit to May 26th should there be time constraints for people. So please tentatively pencil in May 27th through May 30th. I'll be in contact with people and look to finalize those dates. I will also update my initial post with this info. Long live Dust through Project Nova. Bang.

An extra thank you also goes out to those of you that have EVE pilots and capture cards. Also, thanks to those corps who are willing to offer their districts to the event! It seems like many of you thought May 14th was Suicide Day - I should have been a little bit more clear! IGÇÖll have to scramble to organize something to allow us to do a mini event should you guys wish to a Suicide Day today. Since we canGÇÖt set up PC matches this late in the game, the only way we could do it today would be through Faction Warfare battle. IGÇÖll try to get in touch with some of you guys that have EVE pilots to see if we can scramble you to the different systems, but itGÇÖs highly unlikely weGÇÖll be able to pull this off today. Again, the dates are tentatively the 27th through the 30th. The channel name is still being decided upon. Those who have capture cards, EVE pilots, and are in connection with corporations willing to offer your districts for this event, please send me an in-game mail and weGÇÖll get the ball rolling on this.

We have some corporations that are willing to participate and are setting the timers. Right now I have them set to 20:00 and 21:00, but I know there might be some people not able to come at those times. If you can't make around those times, let me know here so I can set some up differently. Show's about to start! 2 more days until the event! Remember, anyone is welcome to come in and participate, but spots may be limited. We might have to start a priority queue from the sign-up list or a first-come first-serve basis in the channel. If we get more districts though, we might have to worry about that at all though! One more thing to note and put a little rule on: If you have already participated and someone else who hasn't wants the slot, please let them have it. It's common sense and courtesy, but I figured I'd put that out. Hype boosters activate!! Long live Dust through Project Nova. Bang.
