Hello everyone, To start i will tell you i am a Junior in High School. In my Sci-fi & Fantasy class we are reading a book called Ender's Game, btw it is a great book. Back to the point though, i was going to recreate the last battle in the book were Ender attacks the Buggers home world. To do this i was going to use Eve's Test Server Singularity, but i need your help to this. I need people to play as the buggers and people to play as the humans fighting them. I need "actors" to fly ships, but so far i have no dates on when this will start i just know that the project is do on the 29th of February. And any help from CCP would be greatly appreciated and if you want to join me in this project just reply to this post and once i have enough people to start is when i will announce a date.
Thank you for reading and i hope you reply, Kuger

Actually, I thought it was a great book that opened people's thoughts about leadership and strategy; getting people to do something you want/need them to do, without actually asking or telling them...
Also good to note, the version I read had a forward written by Orson Scott Card, and he mentions how adults actually didn't really get the book, while kids loved it. (Adults scoffed, saying kids don't really think or talk like that.)

I just realized I was confusing books. For some reason Stephen R. Donaldson's Gap series popped into my head. Which if you've read it you'd probably realize why I was surprised at the thought of these being read in a high school classroom.
Sorry for the slight derailment. Good luck with your project.

Sounds interesting. I suggest you plan a specific time & date (use EVEtime as a reference), post again, and let people "sign up". It is easier for us to plan, if we knwo when it's gonna be.
P.S. I can fly a range of ships, and can put on a mean face if needed for the "acting" part

A) Great book.
B) Grab enders shadow - its from beans perspective of the same period and really adds depth to both books.
C) evemail me ingame and ill try to be there in time. Although from memory, enders fleet only had a few ''older'' style carriers with 4-5 ships each, while the bugger fleet had thousands, kinda hard to get a few thousand players in there :P
On a side note, you can extract the models from eve, and you said your doing graphics, why not import the models into a lighwave scene and render it that way? then you have full control over the camera/effects etc and dont have to worry about timing with players etc. Lightwave isnt hard to use, although a little expensive - but being a student would really lessen the cost.

You're a junior in high school, and you've already forgotten the rules of English spelling and grammar?
Scan your next book report for me, I need some lulz. ________________

Hi Kuger, i must say i admire your choice of a platform to use in demonstrating the battle, and if you need help, please let me know via EVEMail, as i rarely come back to a forum topic i've previously read.
Just to help you along, i can fly all Minmatar sub-capital T1 ships, and most T2 Frigs and Cruisers. I also fly all other racial T1 frigs/cruisers, plus several of their T2 counterparts.
