Also what's up with the Eve Store? I've been playing since June last year and it seems like it's been down the whole time.

Orca safe. That is a success, I think.

I was ganked once by goons, while..... ekhm... sleeping like always.... while mining in orca, with drones, in a belt.

I didnt even heard the alarms. Just saw a lot of wrecks around me when I opened eyes. Orca was in structure. I salvaged every of 20 something destroyers, set 20 people killrights "free for all" because it didnt matter really, and warped away.
I later lost that orca while stealing some trash near station, hoping to warp away while looting.... Roll
Yes, i was totally thinking I am a master ninja orca pilot, faster than those 5 pilots who set the trap. Lol

May not belong here, but what the hell. Let me know what you think...

The Hounds of Hell

I can hear the hounds coming, it's distant though they're there.
Clawing, ripping, baying loudly, bloodstains in their hair.

I try to do the right thing, try to make them see.
Still I hear them barking, growling, headed straight for me.

Of course I love my family, more so than myself.
They can't stop the hounds of hell, it's me and no one else.

I can feel my heart is failing, my nerves are at an end.
They circle now, drawing close...my soul they wish to rend.

The fight has left my body, my will is growing weak.
Diving in with snapping fangs, tearing what is me.

I'm yelling out to God, "Please just make them quit!"
A little whisper says to me, you deserve just what you get.

Then **** it! Let them take me, drag me straight to Hell.
There I'll burn and twist and writhe, forever in my cell.

But you'd do well to watch me, for I may pick that lock.
Then grab the Devil's ears in hand and make him suck my ****.

A shout I throw to heaven, "Look I kicked his ass!"
A booming voice says to me, "Still you shall not pass."

Hell will never hold me and Heaven won't let me in.
A price I'll pay for empty faith and life I lived in sin...

Well, I was yellow, y'know. And all reds were long gone, y'know. So they kinda pew pewed my poor Tracksuit Ho. That was the name of the ship, y'know.

Yes, i was totally thinking I am a master ninja orca pilot, faster than those 5 pilots who set the trap. Lol


Ish is known to ninja, sometimes. Like when she ninja'ed 78 ice with the Orca... Lol

What is sad is the loss of manners. The guy placing MTUs used to hold public fleets and enforce the "no MTUs" rule for ice belts when I moved into Osmon. Now he'll wardec you for blowing his MTUs, like all other multiboxer jerks in the ice business.

Ish paid the MTU back, though, after the loss of Cecilia and learning that a MTU blown by Cecilia 2 weeks ago belonged to this guy's alt. He used to be a blue after all, so the MTU was paid back, even after a wardec and after pointing Cecilia.

Indeed. The lovely Shizuko sisters who're carrying out charity work in Matari space on behalf of my family only ever fly Skiffs and an Orca. Everything is fully tank fit, every rig, mid and low-slot. Survivability trumps profitability for them and they've never encountered a problem either in Empire space or even w-space.

It would take quite a fleet to gank such ships in Empire, and even more in w-space where each Skiff tanks like a battleship and does the damage of a Vexor. Not to mention the Loki and Tengu that're always cloaked nearby ready to assist.

Anyway, afternoon lovelies.

Seems I've made a new friend too and I've truly been enjoying his long comm-mails.

Meanwhile in the world of real (tm) I'm busy cleaning house with my daughter before she leaves me again tonight for another week. I already miss her, everything is so quiet and dull when she's not around.

Back to work tomorrow too. *sigh*
