So who here has strange little quirks/habits/compulsions/rituals that they perform whenever they play EVE? Let me elaborate by giving an example;

After I login on this toon and she's standing around in her captain's quarters, I play the song "Starships" by Nicki Minage with the volume cranked up while I make her strut down the hallway towards her pod. I dunno why but I find it suits Cosmic really well, considering she's a wild thing.

Don't diss that song, its catchy as hell with a great beat and it sounds great when you're hammered!!

When I am in a wormhole, I always play creepy music in the background to keep myself alert.

I log in, announce "OP success" in local and update my skills then log out. The only way to play EVE.

I randomly spin my ship occasionally. Every now and then I just give it a flick my mouse. I do this without thinking about it.

I was quite upset when CCP introduced the captain's quarters and removed ship spinning.

You can still click "<<< Enter Ship Hangar" and go do all the ship spinning you want.

Sometimes, when I've had a rough night, I put on my robe and wizard hat...



More seriously, before any expected difficult fight, I go and sacrifice a miner. Preferably more than one.

Right before I log in, I pour myself an alcoholic beverage. As I play, I ritualistically refill the glass every time it gets empty.

I thought playing EVE was a weird ritual.

I do this too! Well until my alt politely requests that I stop yellowboxing him and spamming duel requests for no apparent reason.

Come hell or high water, this sick world will know I was here.

Wat?

Fried chicken is way to greasy to eat at the computer.
