War

[tgr]

Christ you people are bad at posting good news.

Today's been very productive for the NC.

ROIR-Y 1:05-2:14: http://rawr.eve-kill.net/?a=kill_battle&kll_id=6453720&kll_times=2010-04-29%2001:05:00,2010-04-29%2002:14:00 :rape:
O-BYOY 11:52-13:17: http://rawr.eve-kill.net/?a=kill_battle&kll_id=6464009&kll_times=2010-04-29%2011:52:00,2010-04-29%2013:17:00 :rape:

10 POSes taken back from IT+friends, which I think leaves the KSC with 20-30 POSes gained so far, after a full month of fighting. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

[Phildo]

I think you're the only active member of this board who's currently involved in the fighting up north, tgr.  Does this mean that IT spent today rescuing their towers in Delve instead?

[tgr]

I would've thought at least endie would be active in the war as well, but no matter.

What I got out of yesterday was that IT got raped in 2 cap engagements, the first in ROIR (16 carriers), the second in O-BYOY (6 carriers and 38 dreads I think it was). They apparently saved 3 separate towers prior to the second rape, but there was seeminly no resistance at all for the remaining 10 or so towers that came out after DT.

I'm not sure if it's just a case of IT's back being broken for that day, or if it's a case of IT having to save POSes down south, which lead to the NC incapping tons of IT POSes in one go, which was capitalized upon when IT's capfleet was decimated by taking out 10 of them.

Either way, a serious setback for IT when so much of their progress was lost in one day.

Edit: Additionally, it apparently lost 2 mediums and 1 small in delve, of which 1 was on a highend. I think the mediums might've been CSAAs, but I'm not sure. Also looks like they might've taken/RF'd a few other moons, but I really haven't got anything other then kugu hearsay on that front.

I'm mildly active in-game, but the directorate thing means I spend tiny amounts of time logged in, and massive amounts doing other stuff, mainly around newbie retention.

New quick update. Current tally according to rawr KB is 23 towers, 507 modules and 5 territory modules killed this week alone.

I wish there was some IT forum porn available right about now.

[Simond]

There won't be any - they'll just stop posting and quit logging in.

[Sir T]

Thats their pattern. Anyone that says something bad on IT/Bobs board is booted and the post deleted. They want wall to wall happiness. That's why Yaay was booted. We don't know exactly what he said as his post was immediately scrubbed, but the reason he was kicked was a bad post on BOBs board.

Typically after a disaster they sit on their TS serves and IRC channels singing the praises of Mollie and how wonderful everything is really going, and then "forget" to log in.

[tgr]

Yay goon drama.

Apparently they've now reset stella polaris, since they ninja-anchored a tower at a highend which was killed, and which goons thought of as theirs.

[Numtini]

Isn't that going to make NC fleets kind of difficult?

[eldaec]

I don't think Goons are actual NC guests? So they wouldn't be in NC fleets.

[Endie]

I literally went away for two hours and that happened.  It's not going to be a huge deal but it was a silly way to deal with it and I think everyone knows that, now.

[tgr]

Goons are a bunch of kids which needs daddy endie to watch over them, c/d

[Numtini]

I don't think Goons are actual NC guests? So they wouldn't be in NC fleets.

I see a lot of them on killmails.

[tgr]

I ws going to say the very same thing. They may not be in the NC, but the NC is certainly not stopping them from running fleets and shooting clowns.

In other -worthy news, blast supercarrier down: https://www.pandemic-legion.com/killboard/view_kill.php?id=272200&r=55548

[tgr]

And apparently majesta empire's gone down to shoot at least one IT IHUB: http://www.killboard.it/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=155571

Isn't this more than IT's managed up north so far for the duration of this entire war, SOV-wise?

[tgr]

And what's this I hear about baby titans going kersplodie? And another supercarrier (a Hel this time)?

[Phildo]

I don't know either, but you could try posting your sources next time.

[Gets]

What's the first thing Star Fraction does when they take over Providence?

They build a station...

[Endie]

And what's this I hear about baby titans going kersplodie? And another supercarrier (a Hel this time)?

Majesta killed an IT CSAA that was definitely building either a supercarrier or a titan.  It belonged to Zero. so Molle didn't give a monkey.

PL and Brick killed a Hel from En Garde, I think in HED.  There were a pack of 20-odd carriers trying to save it but they started self-destructing when it was obvious that they were going to die.

[Meester]

Morsus Mihi lost a supercarrier to a bunch of ROL titans and assorted superfriends capitals. I believe the MM pilot didn't scout. Those ROL titans have been up blowing up random stuff up north for a few weeks now.

A MM carrier and dreadnought also went bye bye.

[Phildo]

You mean ROL is camping jump bridges with cloaked HICs again?

[Meester]

You mean ROL is camping jump bridges with cloaked HICs again?

It seems like it.

[Gets]

Camping jump bridges is lucrative as heck. (bombing run in this link)

A month after booting out LOVEU for being a load of pubbies Goonwaffe have come up with an inspired idea to rebuild themselves as a spaceholder - let's recruit a lot of pubbies!

http://www.kugutsumen.com/showthread.php?6108-Pubbieswarm-Darius-apologizes-for-not-leading-lays-out-plan-for-alliance

CEO Darius Johnson explains his genius thusly:

If Amok recruits a bunch of stupid faggots who post like shit then they'll be getting off on a bad foot and we'll have to deal with that as it comes. The dudes in Saga don't speak English to my knowledge so their posting shouldn't be a problem for you.

You know, I don't think he quite "gets" Goons.

[Simond]

Most of the "argh pubbies" people buggered off with Elitist Ops (following a pubbie to join an alliance run by a terrible pubbie) anyway.

[Numtini]

Ever get the feeling Darius drinks?

I'm pretty sure this was already discussed, but it was well-received and people are cool with it.  Now that the penifSmash types are gone people aren't that worked up about this stuff compared to getting the alliance working again.

It's you.  You're the one who doesn't "get" goons.  Although you might have a rough idea about FYAD goons.

[palmer_eldritch]

I get Goons but I'm not so sure about LODRA.

[Stabs]

Frankly Goon culture is a big myth.

It's like saying you don't get us people who shop at Sainsbury's or you don't get people who fly Ryan Air.

Something Awful has 100,000 accounts united by an enjoyment of arguing on the internet and schadenfreude. That's all. Oh, except 95,000 are also united by hating all the Eve nerds that keep turning up to boost postcount by randomly "contributing" to threads they never look at again.

[Endie]

Well that certainly is an interesting string of goonsay assertions.

You could try some more nuanced elements like "goon culture no longer serves as an adequate differentiating factor since their language and attitudes have infected even their enemies and the developers" or "their particular brand of 2006-era goon social mores, based as they are upon a mixture of the FYAD and D&D subforums of their times, is no longer representative of the greater SA culture, which has radically shifted since then", but your version was just daft.

[Pezzle]

Check this out, an argument about what goons really are? 

hahah Goons!

Indeed. This is the war thread! Isn't there any WAR in the EvE universe these days?

[Phildo]

Three or four, but none of us are in Sys-K, Primary., Stain Empire or c0ven.  Nor is anyone involved in the PL/Panda Team vs BLAST conflict.

[WindupAtheist]

I was under the impression that There Are No Goons.
