Wormholes

Not a whole lot of fail going on lately. We need to spice it up a bit.

Then how about we reminisce about some older fails.

About 2 years ago my corp discovers a VERY juicy pos inside of a c3 wormhole with little defenses and very few people active inside. (A weeks worth of scouting revealed that only 4 people were inside the hole and active) We moved in and started to hit the pos. The guns were improperly set up and for the first hour, nothing was shooting us. So we decided to take a chance and just shoot the pos, ignore the defenses since it clearly wasnt firing at us.

While shooting the pos and setting up our bubbles, a pod warps intot he pos and quickly jumps into an orca. He starts gathering up everything into his orca and is about to warp out when our bubble came online and trapped him into the pos. It was at this point that the guy realized he derped his pos setup and reconfigured the guns to shoot us. We lost one raven before we were able to reform into a tight little RR BS ball. We then take out all of the guns and go back to the pos.

Fast forward a few days to when the pos is coming out of reinforce. During the reinforcement timer we had fought off a few fleets trying to take advantage of our "inactivity" and try and sneak in a fleet of their own. Except we never left the hole and just remained on batphone until the time came.

So the time was almost upon us. The c3 had a static HS, which we crit, then miraculously put 6 BCs through coming inside without it popping when the timer finally ran out. We finished off the tower and collected the goods, well most of the goods... some of the modules remained online even after the tower was destroyed. (logs show nothing)

Now before you all start jumping at me saying there wasnt any fail involved here, take a look at the screenshots I provided in the bottom of this post. These guys had THAT pos with no defenses inside a c3 with only 4 people who could possibly defend .

It's an old gank you were a part of. It was with temporal abyss.

Having consulted with wide range of experts, there seems to be some disagreement about what, if anything, is noteworthy about this kill?

Pls help us understand! For science!

He's complaining the guy is mining Scordite (a very low ISK/hr highsec ore) and not, say, many of the plentyful ABC's you would find in the same anom.

If he's building in the WH and needs Trit/Pye then it actually makes sense over hauling it in, I guess v0v

Why you wouldn't just mine ABCs at 2x the ISK/hr and then sell, and buy the minerals needed? Because carebears don't understand opportunity cost and the minerals I mine are free, etc.

ed: I once saw the same thing, these guys were mining sodding OMBER in a newly spawned grav. Even I know this is the worst thing you can possibly mine.

i love this

Five destroyers attacked a Hyperion in a C3, the Hyperion sort of just sat there in WTF mode.


Then killed all five of the destroyers in very quick order.

About a month ago, I was dual boxing a C4 with a pair of RR tengus. I came to one of my radar sites which I thought was the "trinary". Needless to say it was the digital nexus type. I was pounding away not only at the rats but also at some very delicious Liengugels Summer Shandy (If that is how you spell it). Anyways, on the second wave up pops a Sleepless Safeguard. I think to myself no problem since I am invincible! Summer Shandy will do that to. He come screaming at me all the while I am firing at him. He then comes into warp scram range and locks one of my tengus down. I am losing shields pretty quickly and thought that I should warp one tengu out and let the other die. That would have been the sensible thing. I thought to myself that I can still take him down........One tengu goes down, then the other. That was a bad night and an aweful next morning.

This was almost two years ago, but imo still worth showing.

We attacked the Chained Reactions WH, caged their POSes had a few engagements - all nothing special, but still fun.
During the nightshift, an orca pilot decided he wanted to grab a few things out of the corp hangar and slowboat out of the bubbles. Granted, the apoc was too far away to get a scram on him, but when he saw the loki uncloak, he turned around in an attempt to reach the shields again. We managed to pop the orca right on the pos shields. 1 second later, he would have been inside.

After he died, he petitioned CCP that he supposedly drifted outside of the POS shields after login, without wanting to move the ship at all.

Öhhh, must try......to resist......quote....reply
