"Internet space ships are big business," a phrase often thrown in EVE Online player circles. It is used for humorous purposes to include emotional engagement, dedicated time, and financial resources spent playing a game about remote divination with virtual kingdoms. Sometimes, this phrase goes beyond being a joke and having a great meaning, such as to prevent suicide, respect Dead players, or in today's case, spend $ 40,000 in a unique space to raise money for those affected by fires in Australia.
The CCP developer is currently using “PLEX for the goodAn event, a requested application EVE Online Players can donate their in-game currency in the official currency owned by the CCP. At the conclusion of the event, the CCP will convert all donations into an equal amount of real-world money and donate it to the Red Cross, in order to go to relief efforts for the Australian brush. One player, known in the gameplay as Kelon Darklight, has decided to send a very unusual ship auction and promised to donate the proceeds to PLEX for a Good drive, with an estimated savings of one of the ISK triggers – about $ 13,000.
In April of 2016, Blacks competed in a PvP tournament with a direct impact on the proceedings EVE Online the storyline. He and his team compete to honor the NPC's royal house and fight to assert their right to challenge the vacant Amarrian dynasty. When they said they won, he and his team were given one of the rare and special ships in the game, the Gold Magnate. Gold Magnates is not the largest, largest or most powerful ship EVE, but they are a rare exception. According to EVE University Shipwrecked, only five were ever known to be present, and three of them were destroyed.
The black light acknowledging the breakup with the Ultra-less-known charitable organization has caused a lot of work inside EVE Online. The auction has received a lot of attention Reddit, where performance was discussed for its long-term performance. Finally, the auction attracts the attention of Scott Manley, a Youtuber with over a million and previous subscribers EVE Online player. Manley posted on his Twitter account that he had been thinking of buying the ship, using the enormous wealth he had earned over the years, both from playing. EVE and as a reward for transferring from his days of posting videos about the game to his channel.
Manley opened his mind when the mind was crying 1,000,000 PLEX—A 3.5 trillion ISK, equivalent to 160 years EVE game time – which is somewhere around $ 40,000 USD. CCP sources have confirmed that Manley has PLEX in his account to complete the transaction. If it were not completed, it would be a large transaction carried out with one ship inside EVE OnlineHistory.
CCP Convict, Community Developer for EVE, you were told Kotaku, "If successful, this auction could result in tens of thousands of dollars in PLEX for WAM's fantastic campaign and at CCP we hope that both Kelon Darklight and Scott Manley are able to come to a good conclusion in the auction."
Lightlight is yet to officially approve the bid and conclude the auction but noted on the original Reddit thread that this exceeded his expectations and that he is looking to close the auction before the bid season. It is also worth noting that season EVE it's very popular with authors and it & # 39; er well done, any embarrassing attempts by PLEX for the Good are considered "very deleted" by the CCP and will be met with the "most powerful and fastest action possible," making this type easier of the scab in the hope that it is not unexpected. If Darklight accepts Manley's bid, the transaction would make this the most successful PLEX for the best events in game history.
