As the Oracle of Bob, he would like me to clarify a little on the standard sacrifice required for Minor Infractions in His Holey W-space. I was under the influence of His Most Delicious of Saponified Liquors... and this is the vision that was bestowed upon me.

You must purchase the Most Sacred and Salubrious of warships. The Rifter.

Then you must fit The Holy Rifter properly for Sacrificial PvP. This means as many big guns and big engines as you can cram onto that hull. Bob does not approve of "Tank" on his Sacrificial Rifters. It's all about the DakkaDakkaDakka and ZooOOoom!.

You must load it's cargo bay with equal amounts of ammo, Quafe, and Exotic Dancers.

You must name your ship: [your name]'s Sacrificial Rifter.

Then you must find a system belonging one of His Chosen. You can tell if they are one of his Chosen. They will try to kill you.

You must then apologize for your Minor Infraction in Local. And then challenge said Chosen to fight you to the death 100 km from the sun. You must fight any and all Chosen that land on grid with you. You must fight back. You must explode.

You may try to get away in your pod. But Bob finds it more pleasing if you sacrifice yourself in totality. Your appeal for Leniency may be heard and he may grant you His Sacred Sleeper Indulgences once again. Or his Chosen may divine Bob's Will and escort your pod back to your home or to "Kay Spayce".

To prove your Loyalty and Faith. You must post your killmail and apology here in the forums.

I see one major problem with this. The heretical prophet demands ammo, Quafe and Exotic Dancers.

Bob demands frozen corpses, at least a dozen of them, and frozen corpses only. Nothing else matters, as long as there are explosions and corpses involved.

Burn the heretic, for his misguided advice may have led to the damnation of several capsuleers!

Remember to loot corpses folks, they may some day save you from undesirable wormhole connections, not to mention saving your immortal ISK wallet.

Heresy?

What is this heresy thou speaketh of? For it is impossible to Follow Bob and be a heretic!

My Dear Brother. I verily asketh thou this question; If thou hath not both ammo for shooting, and thou haveth no prop mod for zooming... would not the Making of corpses be quite impossible?

The whole necessity for the making of a Sacrifice is that thouest hath failed in thy Manifest Destiny!

It is through our Sacred Service of the Explosinations of the Ships and of the Pods that brings upon us the Indulgences of Bob. It is to curry the Favor of Bob. So that he may grant upon us, His Chosen, the Sublime Indulgences of Sleepers, and the Succor of Talocan Battleship Wrecks.

So if thouest hath not Explosinated any pods, and Bob hath focused His Wrath upon you because of this failure to appease Him through the Sacred Service of the Explosination of Pods. And it is summarily the Ritual of the Explosionation of Pods that procures forth Frozen Corpses... Whereforest are thou to procure Frozen Corpses to substitute for Exotic Dancers?

For if thou hath Frozen Corpses, then thouest would have placated the Great and Powerful Bob with your Offerings of Biomass and the Sacred Unguents of Pod Goo. And thou wouldest not be in the position to rectify thine Disfavor and placate His Wrath. Bob would instead Bless thee, and thine Capital Escalations would be indeed Abundant! And thine Magnetometic sites would bear much fruit!

Truly I say to you Brother. There is no heresy in my words. For it is impossible to be a Follower of Bob and to be a heretic. He demands not the pitiful bleating of prayer. Nor the banality of worship. It is through the Sacred Ritual of Explosination that Bob is Placated, and thus grants upon us His Boons and Indulgences.

Brother Maus,

As a humble and novice initiate in His Most Holy Service, I have strived to learn the Will of Bob, and to make His Will the guide of my thoughts and actions, that He might smile upon me, and bless me with pewpew and the explosions of ships.

To that end - along with the lessons in the fitting of ships to be pleasing to His Eyes, and of the scanning of His Sacred Places, and of the keeping silent in His Local - I have sought out the testimony of other pilots, to learn of His Wisdom that He has revealed.

I have read the witness of some pilots who claim that the Displeasure of Bob can be appeased, simply by self-destructing their ship, even though that ship may be an unfit noobship or shuttle, and without the presence of other pilots to aid them on their way.

Brother Maus, my question is, can this be true? Can it be true that Bob is pleased by a pilot choosing to self-destruct, rather than seeking pewpew with His other Servants? For His Dominion is Vast, and there is much that He watches over. So how then would I draw His Attention, without the activation of the highslots He has provided for pewpew and the midslots given for zoooom? Surely, it is only when pilots meet for pew that His Gaze is drawn, and then might the offending pilot be tested and found fit to remain in His Domain or, if unfit to remain, returned to the barren of K? For His Space is Dark, and are not the flames of a ship in hull a Beacon in His Sight?

Brother Tanner, never once have I stateth that one must beg.

No. Truly I say to you Brother. Bob the God of Wormholes, the Most Majestic of Magnetars, the Prodigal Sun-God of Pulsars, the Regal Lord of Red Giants, The Bane of Black Holes, the Wayfaring Wanderer of Wolf-Rayets... Does not demand prayers, or worship, or the bowing and licking of boots.

It is through our actions, and the Ministering of Dakka and Zoom upon each other that we attract His Steely Gaze and the Clammy Embrace of His Amorphous Appendages.

It is through the displays of our Martial Skill that he extends to us the Boons and Indulgences.

To Follow Bob is to understand the Balance of His Way. To engage in the Sacred Ritual of the Explosination of Ships and of the Pods, his Chosen must utilise the ISK that Bob Provides to aquire the Ships and the Pods and the Implants and the Modules.

Bob Provides for his Chosen with the Boons and Indulgences of His Anomalies and Salubrious Signatures. Whereby His Chosen may aquire the Tools and Impliments of Explosination. For without the ISK, Explosination would not happen, and Bob would NOT Provide for His Chosen.

It is through the lack of Balance that Bob grows wrathful. If one were to impugn upon the His Generosity too much, commit the Sins of Saint Bloobaal and of Saint Flash Crash. He will deny them His Clammy Embrace. To not engage in the Sacred Ritual of the Explosination of Ships and of Pods when given the opportunity is the Sin of Saint Bloobaal.

One must Explosionate both Sleepers and Explosionate the Ships and the Pods. The Explosionation of Sleepers gives us the ISK to provide the Tools of Explosionation to engage in the Sacred Ritual of the Explosionation of the Ships and of the Pods. Which releases the Rarefied Ethers of Frozen Corpses and the Sacred Unguents of Pod Goo. Bob is attracted to the Rarefied Ethers of Frozen Corpses and the scent of the Sacred Unguents of Pod Goo. He then extends futher to His Chosen the Boons and Indulgences of ISK so His Chosen may make further Offerings of Frozen Corpses and of the Pod Goo.

To Deny the Sacred Ritual of the Explosionation of the Ships and of the Pods is to break the cycle of Favor.

Therefore to restore the Balance of Bob's Way, one must prepare the Standard Sacrifice to Bob, and engage in The Sacred Ritual of the Explosionation of the Ships and of the Pods.

Self-Destructifination releases the Rarefied Ethers of the Frozen Corpses and the Sacred Unguents of Pod Goo into the Void.

This too attracts the Steely Gaze of Bob, and the Embrace of His Amorphous Appendages.

However, my Good Brother. It is more fitting to engage in the Sacred Ritual of the Explosionation of the Ships and of the Pods.

The Act of Self-Destructifination is a measure of last resort to Return to the Balance of Bob's Way. An act of desperation.

Some of His Chosen may take the Vow of Local Silence. It is not compulsory. But it is an... informal Tradition of Bob to Bless others of His Chosen with a Salubrious Good Fight even if one has been Explosionated. Be mindful of the Sin of Saint Shiptoaster, for he did have a most foul of minds and Cursed and spread a Malediction in Local. Bob punished him through expulsion to the Insufferable Pit of Boredom known as Kayspayce. It is a terrible thing. A most horrid of punishments.

The flames of Ships in Structure are a beacon for His Steely Gaze, indeed! It is not displeasing to Bob, to attempt to seek the Succor of one's W-space Bothers and to return to engage in The Sacred Ritual of the Explosionation of the Ships and of the Pods. For both sides of the Holy Conflict will attract Bob's Favor and the Balance of His Way may continue until time indefinite.

Thank Bob because I love to sing in local when I'm far far away from my own hole that I have now lost. I see now my transgressions and why I lost it in the first place.

Am I allowed to fit a probe launcher so that I may bring my rifter to be explosionated for my sins or should I scan first then go?

I really wish life would end so i could have more time for eve.

Dear Brother Kalel,

Like so many positions of authority in The Kingdom of Bob, one merely has to take Purple Haze, invoke the Spirit of Bob, and poast on the forums.

If thou desireth to be the Pope of Bob, you merely proclaim yourself to be The Pope of Bob!

I am the Oracle of Bob.

So far we have no Bishops or Cardinals of Bob. Bob likes fancy titles that have no meaning.

So if thou desireth to be The Pope of Bob, a more Grandiose and Pontificating title would most appropriate.

I shall provide an example.

Brother Nimrot, Possessor of the Holy Codpeice. Chancellor of Ladars. Holy Talocan Pope of Bob.

See?

Now that you are the Pope of Bob you must make a Decree. What do you Decree? For this Fortuitous Forum Thread must have more contributions to the Understanding and Knowledge of Bob the God of Wormholes. Bob speaks to His Chosen.

Brother Patater.

May Bob Embrace you with His Amorphous Appendages.

Thouest may fit A Holey Scan Probe Launcher. But it may be more practical to scan first, and then seek to engage in the Sacred Ritual of the Explosination of the Ships and of the Pods.

For if thouest know where to find His Chosen, thou may needest the Knowledge and the Beneficent Bookmarks to find your way back to The Kingdom of Bob if thouest get thine Ship and thine Pod Explosionated. To be accidentally banished to Kay Spayce would be a fate most horrid and unimaginable.
