While I dont think Shad plays a lot, he does care about Dust. He provides about the only platform I know of that really talks about dust (podside, I've been listening to it for over a year now). Plus he went to FF and did a lot of lobbying for us mercs. I still don't know if I like him, but I believe he wants Dust/Legion to get better/succeed. I remember playing against Zion in the early days of PC, always brought their A game. They taught us some really good strats and were a pain to fight. We could clone them, but they would get us on MCC.
Zion also might play on Alts, which I would imagine Appia has about 10x more kills/WP/etc than that table alone shows.
I think the CPM needs great diversity and people who are willing to take on roles that will communicate with the community. Thats something Shad already does, so I think he deserves a place on CPM as long as he continues to communicate with us about Dust/Legion future. (I remember readings Hans blog but he stopped and had very infrequent posts) We really need someone who can communicate with us on CCPs progress and hold them accountable.

On the other hand it can also be a good way to mess up the opponent. "haha! I see you're in a Gal-Scout" *Swap to HMG* "crapcrapcrap!" *swap to Assault w/ ScR* "Wtf?!* *place REs in Logi suit* *boom! Appia Vibbia (Boundless Proximity Explosive) [infantry]* "How did she kill me with proxi's!?"

I'm on a list someone on the forums for my constant AWOXing of Minmatar Faction Warfare battles. I troll people in FW looking for REs to jump on. I run around with a plasma cannon. I stack complex armor plates on a sentinel suit and wait for people to TK me and get kicked for doing too much damage. I recorded a match where I committed suicide 10 times in a row because my KDR was getting too high.
what's the deal with those low numbers?

Speaking from a purely personal standpoint of what I think makes a good and effective candidate, I think having an understanding of current game mechanics through actual experience is a must. Good intentions and passion are of course essential as well, but knowing how to effectively put that passion to use on actual game mechanics is very important to me. I mean a mechanic may love cars very much and cares very much about giving me the best fix-up possible...but if they're not well versed in how my car works...do I really want him trying to fix my car?
Now I'm not saying everyone on CPM needs to be an expert, in fact I would prefer they not be super specialized but rather have a good working understanding of all aspects of the game; jack-of-all-trades sort of thing. This is key because while they may not be experts in any particular field, they will be able to talk to those who ARE experts, but also personally know enough to tell when someone is bullshitting them.
So I of course say I think this is ideal, because that's really what I personally represent. While I do have more focus on vehicles simply because I've been using them for so long, I pretty much play every playstyle with every suit type. I'm no expert by any means, but I know enough about everything to be dangerous. Obviously what criteria you choose for who makes a good and effective candidate is for each person to decide, but we were touching on the topic a bit so I thought I'd share my viewpoint.
Like my ideas?

Well... I will!
iOS development took a real interesting turn yesterday. I am already liking the new xcode, and am liking swift far more than objective-c. swift is kind of a slippery slope, because developing solely in swift is a good way to only have your products on apple devices. That's not too big of an issue right now. I was glad to see Unity was already working with apple on utilizing Metal. Metal is going to be awesome for game development on mobile devices... metal is basically a graphics/shading language like openGL.. thankfully, since unity is adopting it, I won't have to go under the hood :D At least not until I have issues with it. There's also sprite kits/scenes.. basically take a 2D scrolling/candy suck game and you can easily dev it.
but swift is going to be a big deal.

I talk to lots of developers. It tends to go either way- either love it or hate it.
FWIW- That is why I like Unity. No draconic royalty schedules and you can pretty much port your product to multiple platforms depending on your product/design.
The app store isn't the worst place in the world to have a product

I think i might need to go with swift, have no idea why i was unaware of Metal. But this is good news to me. Looks like I will have time to do some "hobby" work while I am at work and Metal will actually be something I could use.

So this week I joined what I now know to be as, the Plasma Cannon Master Race. While I am doing it the 'correct' way with a Gallente Commando, have you guys had any success with using it on a cloaky Scout?

If you use the cloak to sneak up on a tank, drop as many REs as you can on it, then shoot it, sure.
That's if you're using it for AV. It's pretty much cloak doesn't help or hinder use as AI.

Though I did uncloak in front of a forge heavy intending to suicide blap in his face, but we ended up shooting at the same time and both killed each other

Pretty much yes Also it works for driving off Dropships and ADSGǪ Not likely to kill them. Hell it takes the best of my focus to track and time the shot right, by the time you reload they are long gone.

They're totally fine for pub-match sentinel. Pub match sentinels usually aren't good enough to turn around and shoot before you get the second charge off.

Heavies are knifer food.
And it's not only that, Zns just mean it takes longer to kill things. Multiple targets? Those Zns are now a liability.
Zns are good for rookie n00bs who can only kill stationary unaware prey.
You aren't cool because it took you two extra hits to kill somebody. And it only costs 12k for IshNoks.
