Thank you. I kept meaning to edit my original post say that. However, as with many things it kept slipping my mind.

Nice job identifying it. :-)


The reason I chose "Far Over The Misty Mountains Cold" for my inspiration is that song was written by tolken as a oral history of the Dwarves from the Misty Mountain. The song told the history of their rise and fall, and the wounds that were left on the the tribe as a whole for the loss of their home and fortunes.

When CCP announced Jamyl was confirmed dead, I felt all of that. The rise of the Empire and the strength that Jamyl had brought with her coronation, and now the loss and permanent wound that has been inflicted upon all of us who consider the Empire our origin point....our first home in EVE.

Post with your NPC alt main and not your main main alt!

There once was an Empress not from Nantucket
Who rode in a starship not a rocket
The Sleepers did appear
Her body did smear
and now she ships in a bucket.


Sorry that CCP took the easy way out; she deserved better.....

To buck the popular trend, I began to Rage Start instead of Rage Quit.

...and every time I get another piece of Carbon, I know exactly what CCP is getting this Christmas.

Nice limerick. It did make me cringe at the end. Still a painful memory.
