I'd go with Kagehoshi who gave good and constant feedback during the whole beta process. Garret Blacknova said good stuff as well. Nova knife, grideris for cast 514 stuff. and the list could be much much longer if i were too give it a good thought.

Let's not mix up player skill and corporation CEO with good CSM-like material please. That's a mistake well too often noticed.

Iron Wolf Saber - maybe, does transcripts but thats about it, i dont see much else
Kain Spero - created tourneys and OB tests and i think also knows about the workings on EVE
Bojo the Mighty - no
KalOfTheRathi - no, who the **** is that?
Vermaak Doe - no, who the **** is that?
Free Healing - no
Maken Tosch - no

I nominate Contrabandjoe.

I think Mavado V Noriega would be a decent member; just looking at the hard work he put into his tank feedback shows he's got the know-how and will put the effort in.

You said Contra-Band-Joe .

Are you plan on making PRO Dust's first 1000+ marching band platoon?

Trumpets, drums, all that jazz with CBJ as the band master doing all those funky tricks with his stick

LMAO. I was j/k btw. :P

I nominate Contrabandjoe.

Iron Wolf Saber
Kain Spero
Noc tempre
Nova Knife
xprotoman23
Regnum DEI
Icy Tiger
Free Beers
Mavado V Noriega

Now that CCP has announced a War Council - Beta to help develop Dust's version of the CSM, I am curious who people think would likely be nominated.

The nominations are internal to CCP, so we have to guess at it from their perspective. I'm also not sure how many people they are going to pick.

The first names that jump to mind for me are:



I'm sure I'm leaving out a ton of people, but that's what I could come up with off the top of my head.

People I've forgotten so far ( ):

free healing was the person I thought of first after IWS
EDIT: Did you just ninja edit bojo into there?

Wait you added me? And CCP Dolan already said that those involved have been emailed and I have received no such email

free healing was the person I thought of first after IWS

I did! I did! I did saw a putty tat!

Man I don't know how much time this requires. If it's not a constant thing more like a meet once every two weeks I'd be up for it. Beware Vaerana, I made a thread similar to this...it did not go well....

How could any of your threads not go well? Lies, I say!

I feel like you mainly have the forum warriors on here. What about the people who are really into the meeting the needs of new players like the tutorial makers and Dust University folks. I wouldn't be surprised if half the team or more aren't on there yet.

I am interested to see who CCP thinks will be good candidates, as well as who their successors will be. I think it will be interesting if a low-profile person with solid commitment and logic gets added, because that will give them more exposure and also potentially bring stability and/or moderation to the table.

Iron Wolf Saber - maybe, does transcripts
Kain Spero - yes, did community events
Bojo the Mighty - no
KalOfTheRathi - no
Vermaak Doe - no
Free Healing - no
Maken Tosch - no
KAGEHOSHI Horned Wolf - no
Garret Blacknova - no
Nova Knife - no
Grideris/Gridboss - no, biased as ****
xprotoman23 - no
Regnum DEI - no
Beren Hurin - no
Pays 2 Win - no
Icy Tiger - no
Free Beers - no
Mithridates VI - no
Mavado V Noriega - yes, for tank/AV balancing
Contrabanjoe - no
DUST Fiend - no
gbghg - no
Sentient Archon - no

Could I just out this on record and say Dust uni < Bojo's school of the trades.

This really shows that your opinion is terrible. Having a no for me is absolutely ok but no to Maken Tosch and KAGEHOSHI horned wolf! Biomass yourself

Who is maken and kage spurts out ideas, good or bad but that doesnt make em a good candiate

Who is maken and kage spurts out ideas, good or bad but that doesnt make em a good candiate

That isn't what makes them good candidates, it's their levelheadedness and ability too provide logical reasons behind those ideas

Easy

I havnt seen enough of them to warrent a place, a few ideas here and ther doesnt mean ****, if it does then im also on the list which you will find lolworthy

Ive also explained any ideas ive had logically mostly, so am i included? lolno i havnt done enough and neither have these lot either

What ever happens with the 'war council' we wont get a say and i believe that CCP may pick a few ppl not right for the job which will make it worse

If it was down to player voting at least i could deal with the wrong ppl on the council because it was down to a vote

Either way if it does go up **** creek we the playerbase lose out and the game does too

Especially after that stupid birthday stunt I pulled a few hours ago. That was so unprofessional.

To be honest, Vaerana should be in the Council Beta because of the firm grasp on integrating Eve and Dust.

I'm... not sure why I'm on the list.

I mostly throw myself into the role of contrarian/devil's advocate where I can see a potential gap in the weave of someone's logic. Nothing I've contributed would be of any value without someone else creating the scenario into which I'm stepping. Even when I'm creating threads, they're usually spinning off from someone else's suggestion in another thread that put my mind onto a slightly different track from the main topic.

If CCP did approach me (and they haven't), I'd probably go with it, because I think it would be pretty cool, and because I think I'd probably be capable of living up to the responsibilities of such a position, but I'd be more surprised at them approaching me than I am to see my name on here.
