The Sixth Council of Stellar Management
On Wednesday 9th March, voting will begin for the 6th session of the Council of Stellar Management, the player advocacy council in Eve Online. Members of the council play a central role in working with CCP (the developers of Eve Online) to prioritise fixes, to act as a focus group for new suggestions and to carry the voice of the community into the development halls.
It shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone who knows my background that I am extremely interested in this system, both as a keen player of Eve Online and also as an industry professional who has worked in community and evangelises for community involvement in games design. For the last two sessions, I’ve been an alternate – a stand-in delegate who is allowed to take part in the discussions, is privy to the internal workings but doesn’t get to raise proposals directly nor to travel to Reykjavik for the regular developer summits (as it happens I was at the last summit but only because a full delegate couldn’t make the trip).
This time around, I am pitching for a third term and hopefully as a full delegate. If you are an Eve player with an account over 30 days old I would appreciate your vote for Helen Highwater, my main character in the game.
