I was kinda hoping there was going to be more to the interview than a questionnaire, so, i guess i/we might as well use this space to field any questions that didn't get asked and should have, or any follow ups to questions already asked. |

This special issue publishes interviews with only a bit more then half of the candidates. Will there be a second issue with interviews of the other half?

Thank you for your question. To do this issue,I used the CSM thread on these forums and also the eve-csm.com website,where one can find the current candidates. What i have done is I have contacted all listed candidates.Then I forwarded the questions only to those that replied and agreed to answer.The candidates you see are those that accepted and responded to the questions. Is it possible I have missed someone while contacting the candidates?Entirely possible. Now,this said,as indicated in my original post,what will happen is that when candidates send me their answers,I will update this special issue and post on this thread which candidate was added and on which page they can be found. --------------------------------------------
The issue was just updated with the added responses of Shatana Fulfairs. Her answers can be found on page 48
Also,as you can see, I have added a 3rd download location in EveFiles. All download urls have been updated

Edited by: Zapatero on 07/04/2008 03:24:11EveMag eh? You do realise I'm going to have to have you killed?  Nah, I jest of course. Good job on organising and collating all those interviews. You could have done an editorial to give that mag a voice, and maybe chosen a layout that was... um, prettier - but I'm sure the mag will develop over time. Keep up the good work and welcome to the murky world of EVE journalism  - Z |

Thank you for the comments Zapatero. I was actually thinking of doing what you suggested,but I decided against it for the simple reason that this issue was about CSM and the candidates, and not really about how pretty EveMag is/was. My goal was to try and provide simple interviews with simple questions, that would allow the Eve community to either decide on whom to vote or raise a discussion on each of candidates positions. That is the basic reason for me going simple on this one. Thank you again for your comments Zapatero |

LOL.Well I did say to write as much or as little as one wished. Now,with this said,if you and the other candidates wish, please do feel free to expand on your positions on this thread.Just make sure that you direct any of your supporters/readers to this thread :) |

I've just seen a typo in my answer to question #6. It of course should read: "...In a corporation the size of CCP you can't avoid such activities among your employees."

Unfortunately I had some issues with my out of game eve mail and then my ISP crashed - resulting in the need to change ISP. So atm my internet access is restricted to work which isn't really ideal and VERY poor timing!  Apologies for not answering the questions yet, I am hoping that I can get back online properly by Monday! |

Edited by: Ankhesentapemkah on 10/04/2008 22:26:28Excellent to be featured in the magazine, and I really like to learn about the other candidates as well. The layout could use some work for the next version though, this isn't just a wall of text, it's a fortress of text, I'm glad I came second as I'm sure that a lot of people will not read it all, and they'll at least get my interview  Still, great work compiling all the interviews. |

Thank you for the comments and thank you for the participation. The way I did this issue was to feature the candidates answers. I wanted for the reader for concentrate on comparing the candidates. But I also agree that the layout needs more work :) As far as the order of the interviews, it was quite simple. I followed the order in which I received the answers |
