Ice Mining Policy

Spirit of these Rules

The spirit of the rules within this page are to provide a system where rocks are available to all time zones, enable fair ways to make ISK, and prevent cherry-picking. If you interpret these rules in any other way, and attempt to rules lawyer, you will likely be subject to commissar.

These rules only apply to ice belts within the NEU-UD Supercapital Umbrella.

§1 Ice Mining Rules & Guidelines

  1. Don't be a dick.
  2. It is strongly suggested that you be in Outer Passage Standing Fleet in game, in the Standing fleet TEST Mumble comms, and in the NEU-UD Supercap Umbrella: NEU-UD Super Range.
  3. Sub-capital miners are encouraged to focus on those icebelts that are outside of NEU-UD Super capital range:
  4. All Glare Crust in the anom must be mined prior to any other type of iceberg. If there are any Glare Crust icebergs left in the anom everyone must double up until the Glare Crust is cleared.
    • Individuals who wait until the Glare Crust is cleared risk being shot by a Diplomat
  5. The first person to begin mining an iceberg (or who lands on an iceberg) gets that iceberg
  6. You may not double up on icebergs being mined by another player without their permission until the ice belt is out of free icebergs.
  7. If you are using multiple subcap miners you must focus fire on one iceberg at a time in groups of up to 10 barges before mining an additional iceberg
    • If you are ice mining with a fleet of alts in 22 barges you may split these across up to 3 icebergs 10 each on 2 icebergs and 2 on a final iceberg.
    • If you are ice mining with a fleet of alts in 4 barges, all 4 barges must focus on one iceberg.
    • You CANNOT mine one iceberg per toon you have in the belt.
  8. Your ice mining drones must be focused on the iceberg you are mining
  9. You should be able to identify who is mining an iceberg at any time. At a minimum this means you must have turret and launcher effects enabled on a single account. “I don't have turret effects on” will not be an excuse for non-compliance with these rules.
