Regardless of what happens in the meantime, it's going to be interesting when all these guilds come together at fanfest in a couple of weeks.

what happens in-game should stay in-game.

but having said that, i hope CCP would put extra security and control especially when people started drinking or else it would be a very disastrous PR if something bad happens. this incident would even negatively affect, imho, Iceland.

Our objectives are pretty clear: Survive, and then retaliate once the MBC starts falling apart. If I was part of the MBC, I'd try and make sure the Imperium alliances end up completely broken and scattered afterwards. While the MBC, with their powers combined is a force to be reckoned with, this truce will likely not last long after the war is over, and most of the allied entities on their own are no match, even for a weakened FCON, Razor or Condi, and if we end up surviving, we'll have many a bone to pick.

Wew, there's enough salt there to fill five Dead Seas. It's completely understandable though. This war has gone totally pear-shaped for SMA, especially the poor line members.
Yes yes, I'm sure everything is salt to you. In what way has it gone pear shaped? We've temporarily lost some space to players who have no intention of holding it, and in the meantime we get loads of the content that we as EVE players enjoy. I've been in considerably worse situations than this in the past - including being cut off from nearly all of my assets and trying to evac through hostile space before my time in SMA - and at that point I wasn't even rolling around in enough isk to keep me subbed until I died of natural causes like I am now.

See what you're doing is projecting. Because if you were in the same situation you'd be bawling your eyes out and screaming about how it's the end of the game for you, you expect that's how we are dealing with it. But that's not who we are. We're battleworn veterans who can adapt to hard times. Sure, we won't win every fight and sometimes we have to suffer a loss, but in the long run we'll be back in fade, and your little coalition will be in pieces crying about the blue doughnut again. We weren't worried when you were BNI, you really think your name change worries us?

Ed: Omigodz sorry for all the salt there guys.

Aye, some people are so desperate for tears that they see them everywhere, even if there are none at times. It's rather embarassing, to be honest - but then again I am a bit prone to feeling embarassed on someone elses behalf. So far, we are pretty happy with this, except for that dude who randomly keeps crying for changes to Aegis to reduce timers and make Ihubs cheaper. He really needs to harden up.

There are people crying and people not crying. Everybody just borderline ignore one of those 2 group because of their respective narrative. The amount of spin this conflict has is just stupid by now imo. If we could apply all that spin to a dynamo, China could stop burning coal for electricity...

People are crying, people are not crying, fights are taken, blueball happen, systems are flipped, systems are saved, ....

They taking this time to blame it all on their allies apparently. So there is that.

http://pastebin.com/scKpkm6j

Totally not GSF leaderships fault, just all those ******** "valued allies" they have. Idiots acting like everything is fine, despite Mittens telling everyone for weeks everything is fine.

(warning lots of goon skyteam tears and blame game going on nah JK you don't need a warning its all gold.)

I am not sure where are the tears are. Being effectively immortal, the losses of property really are only transitional.

What is not transitional is the propaganda war. On that, I think the Imperium has not had much success, and in fact may have hurt their cause with some ill tempered remarks.

Before the war, I heard of the Mittani through some of his antics: the Space Pope, the Book, various mentions of him at player gatherings and so on. I imagined him to be like Les Grossman from the movie Tropic Thunder.

After reading the psychotic rant he put out about the goings on in the current conflict, I have a rather different view however. He now reminds me of Pee Wee Herman after his bike was stolen.

Me? I was never in BNI. I am ex-SMA, if only for a short time, so I know what the deal is inside your alliance. I don't even care about Horde's history -- that has nothing to do with me.

And as for your own claims about SMA: "Battleworn veterans" my posterior. You're a bunch of carebears. Own up to that; everyone in the universe knows it. And your line about coming back to Fade is straight from Mittani's lips. You've got to put all of your trust in him because that's all you've got right now. Maybe your alliance will survive this and you'll get Fade back, or part of it. Or maybe one of the MBC who have had no trouble taking it from you will decide they like living there and will want to stay. If that happens, I don't think SMA will be able to take it back. All your good FCs and PvP corps have left.

In any case, I wish you guys luck, I think you'll need it.

You can't really say that while being in BNI.

Proof enough that whatever time you were in SMA for was incredibly short and your exposure limited. MBC don't want the sov and even if they do want it they won't be able to keep it since fozziesov almost guarantees a loss for the defender in anything even resembling and even fight. And sure, maybe SMA won't survive, but the fun is in the trying. Anyone jumping ship now is simply proving they don't have what it takes to be an EVE player, let alone a wartime Imperium member.

What spin is needed? Every time anyone leaves SMA people keep throwing it about on reddit like it's the end of the alliance, and yet here we still are.

Tosses the bait....catches the fish.

Almost instantly. Spin to go with it as well.

I think I can go a lighter line next cast. Landing them is simple.

Although, at this rate: http://puu.sh/oart3/3516009094.png all the fish will be gone soon.

Sov in decline. Outposts in decline, corporations in decline. Rate of decline growing. Fail cascade on the cards.

Do you not see the irony in you spinning then claiming I'm spinning? We certainly may not survive this but as of yet that's not the case. As it stands some popular names have gone and we've lost a big chunk of space. We've still got active leadership, we're still operating under SRP and have solid logistics. That's the verifiable truth with zero spin.
