This is how I see it.
They used to be bffs; some got a little bored so they came up with this great idea of staged phoney wars which quickly became less staged and phoney and what you now see is the end result. As always, some entities were a bit coy with their real intentions through the whole process Cool

You missed a war (or three).

very short version: TEST couldn't defend their space vs. CFC once their allies lost interest in the war (PL due to the Alliance Tournament - which was very good, I suggest you watch it on youtube - and N3 coalition due to being sidetracked to hold on to their own sov), after an initially quite interesting and closely fought campaign (with PIZZA bombing whoever provided the best target).

If you want to know the story on how it came to blows between CFC and TEST... very complicated, with months of confusing leadership changes within TEST and many other shenanigans closely followed but not understood by the wider public (incl. me)... I refuse to tell this tale (that I couldn't give justice to).

If you want details, you might start here: http://news.enl-i.com/tag/test/, then click Older Posts a few times and start reading a few months back. Or just read the disaster unfold backwards in time from the end.


Thanks. That explains it.

Goons have taken lots of space from all sorts of forgotten alliances. The only possible reason people might remember TEST is all of the hilarious failures in that war by the defending alliance.

See Bio for isk doubling rules. If you didn't read bio, chances are you funded those who did.

I see 3 big yellow blobs on the first SOV map from Google. Yellow is Goon..so...did Goon inherit TEST space?

(I am behind on other null alliances and corporations, so I'm merely curious)


We didn't inherit it. We exterminated the pests who were living there and are in the process of moving in some friends and family.



So renters are now called friends and family got it.

It's funny to read this thread a bit late. He's now in SMA so it made no sense at all when reading.

That's kind of harsh ..
