I'm an the fence about its success.
Regardless, your analysis is way off. How much of what do they need to kill to shut down traffic? Answer that, then see if they can do it.

They can get 'pvp wins' just by getting you to lose ships via blowing up their lesser value ships. Kind of a reverse cash dispenser. I fully intend to get my own first pvp victories this way
Nobody has ever lost a war because of ISK or killboard stats.
The nullsec war game is all about morale; getting your guys to log in and x up for fleets, and making the enemy players not want to. A large element of Mittani's Goonswarm is regular demonstrations that they are not super-serious space faggots, while they spend the other 99% of their time acting like super-serious space faggots.

Naw, not really.
Their current enemies aren't very creative in the image game as it is and what you're talking about is a bit of a stretch, so even if there is admittedly an opportunity there, they don't have the talent to exploit it. |

Ya, this was pretty poor as far as analysis goes.
Again, I'm not convinced either way, but the initial argument adds next to nothing to the discussion.
I do like the point raised about the player cap in Jita. If I were involved in the planning, I'd be talking to CCP's "planned fight" department because piling in to exclude other people entering may cause some issues, and it could also hypothetically be done back at them with minimum coordination among Jita users. |
