Is there the necessary core voter base to support a candidate on a platform primarily consisting of trolling the other candidates?
I don't mean actually undermining the CSM process itself, I mean puncturing the self-importance and combo-breaking the circle jerk of the other members in particularly bombastic, trolling style.
CCP doesn't actually have to divulge information with the council, let alone actually allow anyone into the CSM.Originally Posted by Lallante
The only purpose troll candidates serve is to gum up the works for the first little bit or so, then they'd be ignored and communication would be cut off by the CSM/CCP.
All in all, a waste of a vote.
Just like CSM 6...
good idea bro
I doubt they'd get enough votes to be any use. I think serious platform would probably give the troll more chance of getting in, people take the CSM way to seriously now to allow this to happen again.
A combination of serious views on the actual gamedesign issues, and a promise of not taking the other candidates seriously (including doing, for example, dares voted for in an FHC poll such as attempting to flash hilmar etc) then?
Although then you aren't particularly different from several of the other candidates.
Pretty sure his name was Darius III and he got a free trip to Iceland out of it.

Just a quick question along those lines, how many votes do you get? And when is voting day? And can you vote for someone multiple times?
mazz's platform was trolling the entire EVE player base, rather than just the rest of the CSM, as Darius did.

There should have been a FHC Collective Candidate, whose stance on every issue was decided via forum polls. eg.Failheap Challenge StatisticsFailheap Challenge Statistics

a) boost lowsec
b) boost nullsec
c) push hilmar down the stairs at lunch
I might be a pvp-minded candidate who also kinda hates ccp and other players
