I've been thinking..... wait what? never-mind.... I hear all the time of EVE corporations having practically limitless funding and that they could "buy out all the mercenary corps of dust" if they so pleased. Well when things go on their way why don't we all agree that's just what we will do. If the EVE side wants DUST help and they could just buy us out if they wanted well then all DUST corps should pass up contracts until they surpass some respectable ISK number EVE side. Maybe 10 billion ISK a contract?
Seems they laugh at our "expensive" tanks at 1.8+ mil ISK and I just cant help but think of us DUSTers as Dr. Evil asking for one million dollars as the EVE guys sit there giggling.
So we put aside what makes sense DUST wise and start charging them, when the time comes, EVE amounts of billions of ISK for a single contract.
- Average for all characters: 588tn ISK / 8.17 mil = 72 million ISK
- Average for characters on active accounts: 372tn ISK / 745,000 = 499 million ISK
- Average for 200 richest: 588tn ISK * 0.0598 / 200 = 176 billion ISK
- Average for 100 richest: 588tn ISK * 0.0413 / 100 = 243 billion ISK
- Average for 50 richest: 588tn ISK * 0.0282 / 50 = 332 billion ISK
- Average for 51..100 richest: 588tn ISK * (0.0413 - 0.0282) / 50 = 154 billion ISK
- Average for 101..200 richest: 588tn ISK * (0.0598 - 0.0413) / 100 = 109 billion ISK
Crap does this mean I'm starting to get sucked into EVE? |

Which is the reason the DUST side has to all agree, if DUST side agrees then what ever price they set wil be the price EVE would have to pay or no services.
Just as in real life say gas prices, everyone sells gas at $4/gal everyone pays it to all gas stations, one station charges $2/gal well then all the other gas stations grap torches and pitchforks and hang the $2 guy. lol |

All I can say is in the beginning I know we will be getting chump change from EVE side, once everyone figures out how important or not hiring DUST corps. can be then hopefully the payments will sway in the right direction.
Its like introducing the car for the first time. No one knows what to charge at first so its just for manufacture and labor of making it, but once the potential is realized on what it can do (get people places fast) then its like a luxury and people start charging more for it.
Fighting for EVE on the ground what does it do for them EVE side? How much is the outcome of the winner worth? |

You would undercut other mercs sure, I probably would too. But I know I'm not smart enough in the field of economics to do otherwise. A smart businessman probably wouldn't undercut other corporations but prove to the buyer reasons for buying what they have to offer is greater than what the "cheaper" alternatives can provide. |
