Here’s my recommended ballot.

Candidates are linked to their Eve-O threads. You should NEVER blindly follow someone else’s ballot. All votes you place should be based on your own thoughts on the candidates. Please do familiarise yourself with them at least a little if you are going to place them in your ballot.

As ever, please vote. Please vote with ALL of your available accounts.

If you like this list, here’s a link to pre-select the candidates to vote more easily.

Phantomite
If you are finally ready to vote for a candidate who takes projection and structures seriously, I am the guy for you.
I have plans for ship and weapon balance, Faction war changes to lean in to incentivising PvP over farming, CSM transparency desires and a multitude of UX improvement, to name just a few. My changes aim to improve the landscape across ALL of New Eden and Jspace by not fearing the complexity of addressing heavy, complex subjects.

Drake Iddon
Drake is smart, witty and never confused by bad faith arguments. He wants Eve to be more PvP centric and rewarding for skilled play.

Mick fightmaster
Mick’s approach to the CSM is attentive, interested and logical. From wormholers who want that pure Jspace focus, he’s your guy.

Seddow
Seddow’s approach to changing Eve is based on furthering fleet PvP opportunities.

Itaer
An expert smallgang pilot who wants to push for fair opportunities.

Kshal Aideron
Kshal’s tone and approach is calm and knowledgeable.

Aurous Victoirespere
Aurous performs well in interviews, and he would make a good addition to the CSM.

Gideon Zendikar
Gideon’s aims for the CSM are commendable.

Luke Anninan
Luke is easily the fairest, most reasonable and smartest nullbloc candidate for the CSM. He would be higher, but he’s all but guaranteed a spot anyway.
