Nothing like fighting in treacle...

Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.

Sometimes when I post, I look at my sig and wish that I'd follow my own god damned advice.

Tell someone you love them today, because life is short. But scream it at them in Esperanto, because life is also terrifying and confusing.

i was there (c)

Video doesn't show how huge was this lag fest..... When i felt out it was like "i'm alive again!!!". It was great to be in normal space when you don't need to wait, wait and wait until your frigate follows your command.....

Going to name my next hulls "Vandervecken" and "Flying Dutchman"

Tried to take command of the fleet when it was in an unorganised shambles.

I was instantly primaried by PL Oops

I was there...there was a group of four of us...i was the only one to die...and get podded..."damn you Pandemic Legion" *shakes fist* haha my fleetmates knew I was dead before I did...

But regardless, although I didnt get on the KM, I shot the Nyx a fair few times dealing 27 damage each hit haha

And it was my first major battle too (is that what nullsec wars are like? Blobed and TiDi'd to hell?)

It's human nature to want to explore. To find your line and go beyond it. The only limit, is the one you set yourself.

The nail that stands up is the one that will get hammered down.
PL had spais in-fleet, of course.

We pretty much went distance down on our overviews and free fired, no spies necessary.

I personally took it upon myself to kill every stealth bomber and faction frigate that I could find, no fun allowed
