At any rate it was fun, and Sibyyl showed more backbone then, well... I don't want the ISD to remove this post too. You all know who you are Blink


I still dont accept that backbone equates to agreeing to a fight you cant win


I totally agree with you.



I however and talking about rolling the dice on a fair bet. Sibyyl actually almost glass cannon ganked my thrasher with only 4 months of skill training. Very not bad if you ask me.

It doesn't.

Your perspective is wrong.

Imagine it as a Braveheart, not as a coward.


You go there to show him what you got.

And as you said, Sibyll has backbone by your measuring stick and you weren't talking about her.

Im talking about the people she apparently showed more backbone by your estimation than.

Like myself.

I'm all for going in balls deep but, even I'm not stupid enough to throw away perfectly good ships at OBVIOUSLY outrageous odds.

Tornado vs 10 eve uni members on the boundless creations grid.

I had lots of bookmarks... xD



The Tornado didn't pop, but I didn't get anything either,
until I jumped into a thrasher instead and engaged head on ...



Then they upped to around 30, camping the undock.
ECM and tracking disruptors.

Even hat higher range, I had no chance to hit and eventually got blobbed.


We all had a lot more fun than if I had been sitting inside the station for no reason.

Wut? I was responding to Ramona's point, and reiterating that fun PVP doesn't have to be suicidal PVP. Why are you yelling at me for that and wth does 'rolling the dice' mean? Dude, go have a drink, calm down, and come back when you no longer feel the need to mash the capslock key, for your own sake.

You'll find me there.

Hey, I'm not saying I've never whelped a ship before for ***** and giggles. (note: this is my own lossmail - I realise it's technically against the rules, but I'm sure we can agree that if we can't laugh at ourselves from time to time, who can we laugh at?)

Sorry every now and then my caps lock gets stuck, while simultaneously (for some unknown reason) old coke stains also makes the ! stick and turn into a 1.

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why you don't push the capslock key unnecessarily. Also, one of the reasons why I have a mechanical keyboard.
