Let's see, enemies declaring victory and leaving (TEST, other random garbage), enemies fighting each other instead of us (Snuff/Shadow Cartel, TISHU vs Culture), increased desperation from Horde as they can't decide between us being totally ineffective and begging for PL to save them (or now having PL beg to get bailed out from 'the next BR-5'), GSF and friends retaining the ability to flashform 3 fleets to facefuck overconfident bad guys with.

It's almost like we spelled out that we'd be executing a Fabian strategy and have done exactly that since the C02 backstab, and all what we've predicted is coming to pass.

That should help balance the books on the war overall. Congrats on your victory, MBC looks forward to more fights.

I looked for drama, and couldn't find any.

I did give some random goon 50m (lol), chill chats with Lyris (♥), and talked about weird EDM with Wyld for an hour.

Maybe tomorrow.

Oh, the network slogan is true -- "watch FOX and be damned for all eternity!"

Okay, serious talk. What the gently caress is with these loving pants ridiculous inconsistent PL/NC capital fits. Seems like 3/4 of them are significantly different (i.e. not just varying degrees of pimping) from each other. In order of death:

* HYDRA Apostle -- no capital capacitor mids, got neuted out instantly
* PL Revelation -- HAW -- Heavy injectors, double rep but triple heatsink, heavy neut
* PL Naglfar -- Not HAW -- Cheapo T1 guns / T2 tank fit, no option high; armor tank fit on a postpatch Nag = took less damage than most clownshoes
* PL Naglfar -- Not HAW -- 500MN MWD, no option high, but at least he has the right tank fit, and took 3x the damage of the above clown before he died
* PL Naglfar -- HAW -- Probably the best fit thus far, although capital core defense capacitor safeguard rigs seem questionable.
* PL Revelation -- Not HAW -- 4.7B X-type fit, no injectors, no option high
* NC Apostle -- Reactor control? Large (battleship-sized) capacitor battery? Local tank rigs? I mean, sure, you're trying to cram on 8 cap mods onto one hull, but this seems less than ideal
* PL Apostle -- pretty normal two-rep-one-transfer fit
* PL Apostle -- pretty normal three-rep fit
* NC Apostle -- Another weird NC one
* PL Apostle -- super weak cap regen, triple stacked EANMs
* NC Apostle -- Another weird NC one, this one crams NINE capital mods onto the hull with that RCU. Three cap reps, a cap transfer, two cap injectors, two cap reps, and the capital hull energizer.
* NC Apostle -- Yet another NC reactor control fit, but far fewer capital modules; it's actually only 2% over on grid with the RCU offlined. Waste of a perfectly good lowslot, honestly.
* PL Apostle -- Two empty highs, smartbombs/etc are clearly overrated
* PL Thanatos -- capital AB is weird, but okay, I can at least see where he was going with this one
* PL Revelation -- Not HAW -- no capital capacitor mods, but tbh, he was disconnected, so he'd have died anyways
* NC Apostle -- Yet another weird NC one
* PL Thanatos -- Mixed shield and armor tank
* PL Apostle -- Semi standard three rep fit

So, not only are they widely inconsistent, but the dreads who were dropped to blap hurricanes were predominantly not fitted with HAWs.

The NCDOT Apostle fit is probably the weirdest of this session -- they all have reactor controls fit. I'm trying to think of the bright side of it, and well, some of them have managed to successfully fit a metric buttload of capital modules onto one hull. (Others have it just vestigally -- i.e. one guy's only 2% over on grid without the RCU.) I think most of them are there because they're trying to fit the anti-DD hull energizer module to every Apostle... which makes no sense at a planning level, because who's gonna attempt to driveby a NC FAX in the North? It's not like Goons are throwing around supers (other than Zungen), and NC's blue to anyone else in the area with supers.

Like, I know that we're the Hivemind on Theorycraft Mountain in Goonlandia and we're total idiots who never do anything sensible, but we've been hearing for months that we're screwed because everyone else in the game is standardizing on the best capital fits and will be prepared... so what is this?

I'm sure you'll come to love our strategy of weaponized sadism, since its innocent precursor - weaponized boredom - got so much screaming and howling about lack of fairness and a dearth of self-esteem trophies for your whole class that it was all you lot could whine about for years.
