It is 'WWBee' because we all know that Imperium membership is under the Goons' thumb anyway, thus making all of them only marginally relevant anyway.

Sorry who?

I think you mean, that Emporium membership is under the thumbs of those bee guys anyway...

"The Mercenary War", whilst perhaps technically correct, doesn't really have much pizazz to it. (plus, nothing wrong with being a mercenary in EvE anyway, eh?)

"Easter War" also sounds a bit *meh, imo (leaving aside silly mental images of killer rabbits throwing pastel-coloured eggs at each other)

I suppose "The War of Northern Aggression is right out y'all?

The best I've heard so far is The Mercenary War. Although now it has turned into more of a general uprising fuelled by hatred despite mercenaries still playing a large role. For now something like Northern War, or perhaps War of the Betrayer considering how big a role the turning of CO2 played in the events.

In the end history will probably name this war based upon how it turns out.

CFC were losing before CO2 switched. Yes it accelerated their losses and put their morale into freefall but you can't really say the war was going well before that.

but what would I know, I'm just a salvager

Its a cool name. Fits the theme of a "Great War" in EVE's history. Works well as a hashtag. Isn't what goons want it called, apparently because they didn't think of it first? Pretty straightforward.


Yea, "World War" as in reference to World War 1 and World War 2.

I can see the similarities, oh no wait, where is the world.

Oh, in case this eludes you, world in this context refers to a war on a planetary scale.

How does it feel to lose Kyle, Zack, and Ivory all in the same evening. RIP SMA.

World war Bee is a cool name because it mentions a big War (World War) and gives it a weird turn (Bee) not to mention that bee rhymes on three.

These are the names that stay. Not because they are accurate but because they cling to the brain cells because they are weired. Take any advertisment you remember and think about WHY you remember this one out of 10.000+. Its the same reason.

We sh*t on you and your labels.

Also, that invasion... please sirs, can we have some more?

Remember that whenever you have a bad day in EVE, the correct reponse is "Thank you CCP, may I please have another?"

It's so unfair. All we wanted to do was rent out low sec and cull the weak. Hopefully history will remember us as the benevolent overlords we were. Toppled by peasant hordes out of jealousy for our wealth and beauty.

The very sun of heaven seemed distorted when viewed through the polarising miasma welling out from this sea-soaked perversion, and twisted menace and suspense lurked leeringly in those crazily elusive angles of carven rock where a second glance shewed concavity after the first shewed convexity.

I'm not certain about the war, but GSF could rename their capital ChernoBeel. Looks like it will end up like the original soon anyway.

I'm gonna go with "All right", yup, I feel all right with losing Kyle, Zack and Ivory all in the same evening. If I'm being completely honest I thought Ivory had already left a while back Lol. I don't think it will be the end of SMA, I'm sure we'll plod on and recover.

Well the weak are certainly being culled right now.

You failed, dredging an alliance name out of the trash doesn't mean you recovered. Only you used the name again.

Worked for test though.

They prefer the term meat shield. When your usefulness is done, well look at the Space Monkeys among others. They just don't make good meat shields anymore.

Hush now irrelevant NPC trash.

Heh, amusingly the only people with less relevance in this war are MoA Smile

That might be, but if you're continue losing members in that rapid numbers, you'll have less members than MoA about 9pm tomorrow.
