1: What is the EXACT goal for CPM 0, what did CCP tell you your mission was when they gave you the position?
The two main goals of CPM0 is To set the standard for the future practice and protocol for the future CPM and to come up with a fair and effective method of choosing the next CPM council. Think of us as a beta version of dust's CSM as unlike the eve devs, the shanghai dudes have not been working with a CSM type since 2008-2009 and doing their own thing more or less.
Quote:2: How often does CPM meet?
We have a shared skype channel, One for CPM only, one for CPM and CSM, and one for CPM and CCP. we talk about stuff fairly regularly but because 4 of us are US and 2 of us are EU and most of the dust devs are shanghai, it can be a bit awkward getting meetings together for stuff at times. The last time we all met face to face was fanfest.
Quote:3: What are the issues on the table?
Im not really sure what we are allowed to talk about on that as unless CCP gives a nod, all the stuff in those channels are covered by NDA
Quote:4: How often do you meet with CCP?
The Skype channel makes talking to CCP often fairly easy asside from timezones, even then the true grit dudes are in iceland so its not so bad
I'm Jenza aranda, we are actually in the progess of making an intro thread that will be stickied at the top of this channel
Anyway, while its sort of true that we are not here for balance, we are there to set fires under people's ass when **** goes wrong |

Which makes me sort of scratch my head as the only thing they'd really be after that is the harbinger of new content, something CCP isn't really too crazy about.
So, to be honest, I think the CPM is a small select group of people that has more flash and pizzazz whenever they post on the forums, makes their alliance (Cronos) look more important and gets a free trip to Iceland. Also, they talk to Devs about the same boring **** we talk about.
Then again I could be wrong and they might actually be doing a lot of things that -are- important to the game like... Whatever is not balancing proposals and new content implementation. So that narrows it down to nodding in agreement with whatever CCP says and smiling at the things they don't like.
One of the infuriating parts of this job is that we cant really go into specifics about what we do and some of the ways we are working to try and make the game better, which means some people assume we are doing nothing.
Also, why would we go to iceland? Dust is developed in shanghai... |
