The AMC is | Amarr Mning Camp Buy-back Program | ||
If you are a Fleet Commander (FC) that has run an operation but don't want to haul or contract the minerals to be hauled to market then you can take advantage of the AMC buy-back program, here's how it works: | |||
Fleet Commander contracts the ore to Bruce Industries (Item Exchange - Private contract) with the cost of the contract based on the prices in this thread (http://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewtopic.php?f=45&t=52275&sid=c413a1601115540fd4062aec82d6edf4) of the refined value of the ores being sold and 10,000 ISK to give to the corp for subsequent contracts. One of the characters in Bruce Industries will accept the contract thereby paying the Fleet Commander, the FC then pays the miners. The Fleet Commander's role stops at this point; the AMC organizers will have it refined, hauled, and sold. | |||
After your fleet is over and you've input all of the names, ship type/roles, hours in/out, the share weights in the participation tab (columns A-H), the ore amounts and prices in the Inventory tab the spreadsheet will automatically calculate the total weighting of the hours worked for each participants (column K) and how much you owe them. Here's how you go about figuring out how much to pay your miners and charge Bruce Industries. | |||
Spreadsheet Mechanics: | |||
1. Go to the Inventory tab, put the ore amount, in units, that your fleet mined in column E. | |||
2. Use the prices in the thread above to fill in the values of the ores (column H). | |||
3. You now have estimated values in ISK in column I for your ores, copy those values then paste them into column L. Just make sure it is ONLY the values you pasting, not the formulas. You can do this by right click the cell you want to paste into --> Paste Special --> Paste Values Only) of the inventory tab. | |||
4. In the inventory tab, Column L Row 1 (at the very top), you'll see the total ISK value of your ore; make a contract with all the ore, assign it to Bruce Industries and in the "I will pay" part of the contract, put 10,000 ISK while the "I will receive" part is the total value listed in Column L Row 1. Make sure you email Seranti Olerie and/or Vger Starseed to make sure they know that the contract was submitted. | |||
5. Bruce Industries will accept the contract and send you a lot of ISK (at this time, I'd like to say strippers and coke = bad investment for all that ISK, so don't do it!). | |||
6. There is no six, check your eyes again, they may have glazed over already (make sure to massage and stretch with deep, dramatic breaths). | |||
7. You have two options for the modules that were salvaged, you can sell them at AMC or reprocess them yourself, don't worry you don't lose much, then place the amount of minerals you gained from them in the Inventory tab Column E Rows 4-11. If you sell the modules then you will put the amount in the Extra ISK tab, see next step. | |||
8. Go to the Extra ISK tab and put in column A and B any income or expenses you had from rat loot/salvage, freighting, the contract, etc. | |||
9. In the Participation tab, you will see Column M is now filled in with totals that you are to pay your fleet. These totals include the ISK you charged Bruce Industries, items you sold and expenses paid from the Extra ISK tab, and any minerals you have sold or will sell on your own. | |||
10. In column P of the Participation tab, type in "y" or n" for yes and no if you have paid out the fleet members. You'd put 'n' for no if you have a character name misspelled or something similar. | |||
11. Once you're done, post the spreadsheet of the fleet in this thread [http://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewtopic.php?f=45&t=52718&sid=c413a1601115540fd4062aec82d6edf4] for historical record, T2 Module Lottery purposes, and so the organizer's eyes don't bleed as we desperately look for all the spreadsheets. | |||

=== T2 Lottery === | === Contests === | ||
The AMC is currently running several contests to encourage new miners to not only come out to the camp but also give them a chance to collect modules and ships they will need for their mining careers. One of our key initiatives is to reward miners just for participating in mining operations. However, we are not only focusing on the new miner, we also have contests geared to those individuals that are haulers or want to spread their wings and command fleets. | |||
==== T2 Lottery ==== | |||
A lottery is conducted for every shared can mining fleet in which all participants have a random (equal) chance of winning a T2 module from the following list: | A lottery is conducted for every shared can mining fleet in which all participants have a random (equal) chance of winning a T2 module from the following list: | ||

The purpose of this lottery is to give newer players a chance at acquiring T2 items while they gradually skill up and make enough ISK to get into bigger and better mining ships. | The purpose of this lottery is to give newer players a chance at acquiring T2 items while they gradually skill up and make enough ISK to get into bigger and better mining ships. | ||
=== Cruiser and Hauler Competition === | ==== Cruiser and Hauler Competition ==== | ||
This competition was to reward those with cruisers and haulers (industrial ships below level 5 skill) to come out and participate in the AMC shared can fleets. The idea was originally suggested and funded by an AMC member, Tacko Rhomsbeard (awesome name!); once the contest was advertised we were given a [http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Retriever Retriever] hull by Benny Jett to hand out as a first place prize. The organizers also decided to fit the hull with camp donations and give out four [http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Gallente_Mining_Lasers Gallente Mining Lasers]. We thought the lasers, which were donated by Cartilige Deninard, would make a nice keepsake item for new pilots since they are pretty rare. The competitors had one week to log the most hours in AMC shared can fleets. | This competition was to reward those with cruisers and haulers (industrial ships below level 5 skill) to come out and participate in the AMC shared can fleets.

=== Fleet Commander Contest === | ==== Fleet Commander Contest === = | ||
The AMC also tries to encourage and reward those that show particular initiative and competence in leading mining fleets; every month, the AMC awards three prizes to the three FCs that led fleets with the highest ISK/hour. A single character can only win one of these prizes (i.e. if one character has the top three best ISK/hour values, they will only get the single, top prize). The prizes are the following: | The AMC also tries to encourage and reward those that show particular initiative and competence in leading mining fleets; every month, the AMC awards three prizes to the three FCs that led fleets with the highest ISK/hour.

It is also important to emphasize that the Fleet Commander does not need ANY leadership skills whatsoever to lead a fleet; the role of the Fleet Commander is to make decisions for the fleet, manage the structure of the fleet (i.e. squads etc.) and typically, maintain the spreadsheet to determine hours worked, by whom, what quantity of ore has been collected and what payout the participants should get after the fleet operation is over. | It is also important to emphasize that the Fleet Commander does not need ANY leadership skills whatsoever to lead a fleet; the role of the Fleet Commander is to make decisions for the fleet, manage the structure of the fleet (i.e. squads etc.) and typically, maintain the spreadsheet to determine hours worked, by whom, what quantity of ore has been collected and what payout the participants should get after the fleet operation is over. | ||
