How were the fireworks?

Using a weapon as a deterrent in a diplomatic situation is only viable when you have proven that you have deployed it in the past and are willing to use it in the future.

I must admit Goonswarm provided nice fireworks of exploding ships, including mine. But since you did not use missiles for the lightshow, your organization is not eligible to earn the 200mill isk reward offered.

Pity I missed them.
I assume you suicide ganked a bunch of navy cruisers or something? Did you get any battleships?

Oh Goonswarm, you silly bunch.

Pardon me good sir, but my sturdy destroyer, while primarily fitted with 280mm artillery devices, was also fitted with a small rocket launcher. That rocket launcher fired several times to create a small but still enjoyable show of fireworks. Several of my associates participated as well in the launching of a wide variety of rockets. I believe my associates and I are entitled to the 200 million isk reward, as we did provide fireworks via our rocket launchers.

Playing music for Dodixie was an absolute blast! I'm glad everyone enjoyed the show!

It was Federation Day today? I suppose I didn't notice with Alain Colcer fighting for the Minmatar these days after all. . .

I missed the excitement of people getting goonswarmed. Though maybe that was for the best. Congrats to all who participated, it was an ace event as usual. Here's to Federation Day YC115! :D

Amusing, coming from you Soter, considering half your pilots are off doing the same.

There were 2 Providence freighters at once! Kinda stole the show for a moment.

This was alot of fun, especially with Andreus Ixiris DJing on a live-stream! Was really funny to have Goons show up...and take out a Widow who was trying to get people to blow up my party-rocking Hyperion. :P

This was great! I enjoyed it, although I don't think I saw the fireworks since my settings were down to lowest ebb possible. Stupid laptop.

Let's do this again!

Recommendations:

-enable ships wobbling in hangar view (pre-Captains Quarters)

-add more missions (NPC fleet vs. NPC fleets that actually shoot)

-STOP NERFING EVERYTHING!

Not sure where you're getting that information, Mr. Caman, considering our alliance is actually PART of the Federal Defense Union, and engaged in nearly continuous combat with the enemy in Black Rise.

I actually talked to the guy who lost that Widow later that night, apparently it took 880 million ISK worth of ships to take him down. He purchased a new one right after he lost it though.

Yeah, I remember his name.

Hey, you took some great screenshots, by the way.

My apologies, Soter. I seem to have mixed you up with other elements of the militia.

Rest assured I will be holding myself up to my own rigorous standards of fact-checking in the future.

Ah, goons patheticly commit massmurders to get publicity...
Capsuleers responding with lighthearted banter...

Sansha sounds pretty reasonable right now.

Understandable sentiment, but there are many alternatives to Sansha. One need not lose your soul to find it redeemed.

This is what I keep telling people, but then they crow on about free will and other such nonsense.

This is what free will gets you. Debaucherous displays, attacked by psychopaths, followed by witty banter on the IGS.
