Failure: Hide & Seek

Have you ever tried to hide your own ship from yourself? Nope?
Well. I did it. When we found a Covetor in a belt in Partod I quickly put my Warp Disruptor on it – sitting in my shiny Anathema – and waited for my corpmates to come and destroy the evil foe. Save the roids!, [...]

The Skill of Lucky Timing

Timing… the ultimate griefer of history. The top scorer in every battle and competition. Men worship it as ’skill’, ‘luck’ or just plain success.
In EVE, the timing is generally bad. If it was good, it doesn’t matter, the blob is already in warp right on top of you.
You activate your scram the second the prey [...]

Remote

Inactivity … the ghost of blogs. Well, I am still there. And no, this is not a copy/paste version of my last ‘I am still there’ post.
[p0int] is currently home of four fine pilots, and a few day ago we did a roam, Wolf, Vexor, Logistics Exequror, and myself in a gank Thorax.
As we were [...]

De/Ap Preciation

In my last post you were introduced to the Elite Trade Group, a local and quite large alliance with some interesting members.
They are somehow fun to fly against, especially when they fail. And with fail I don’t even mean that they don’t kill anything but how they kill something.
Today was one of those … interesting [...]

Elite Trade Group

Saturday I undocked Ash in his Vexor. I needed something else than frigate size all the time so I took my cruiser down to Partod, the last system of a dead end constellation.
In Anara, one jump before Partod, I had a Thorax on scan, apparently ratting. I fired up my thrusters and warped there. A [...]

Wormholism II

I died.
Well, to fifty percent. But I won’t tell you who died before I haven’t told you how I died. Very detailed, of course.
Today I logged in. First Romain, to scout the system I was still in. Nothing on scan but a Bustard, apparently at the very same POS as the Drake and Cormorant the [...]

Wormholism I

Yesterday I quickly scanned down a wormhole in Egghelende, leading into class 2 wormhole space.
Romain first, then Ash, I entered it. Literally deafened by the non-existent local channel (it is there, as a matter of fact, but does only show pilots actually talking in it), I quickly did a scan for ships.
Apparently I was all [...]

The Art of Baiting

‘I am back!’ he said and undocked his shiny Vexor. After I had scouted the system with my Incursus of course, never forget: Ash is a coward!
There was this Vexor Scal1 on my directional scanner. Trying to pinpoint him down he disappeared … I warped to the system’s centre, and the second before the belts [...]

Three

While I did some exploration with Romain, Rhiw’aow (I’ll copy this name to my clipboard …) asked in public if someone would like to roam with her. Well … Jyren and Nursultan had decided to start a roam themselves so I just passed her through to them and pushed 00sage00 right after her, as he [...]

Scallywag

I had a  1v1 yesterday. And, as usually, I failed horribly. First I still had an 18km orbit from earlier trips with my Vexor and using my Incursus’ standard commands I tried orbiting the opposing Rifter. But I didn’t realize I told the ship to orbit at 18km and just wondered why I always kept [...]
