1dq1 in Delve. The hostiles are based in T5ZI literally next door, so that gate's likely going to be pretty hot for a neutral.

I do appreciate the invite, but I've never been one for MMOs. Thanks though!

I've never been into MMOs either. WoW never did it for me, or any of its billion clones. EVE doesn't really operate like any other MMO.

Take a Goon's invite code, give it a shot without paying a dime, and see if you like it.

Is there even really any offensive stuff goons can do while they have titan pilots trapped? Even with the humiliating loss, they can still outnumber you in a fight. Is the goon plan just keep making everyone in PAPI mad at TEST until the alliance breaks up and then go murder TEST?

We're currently running around in TEST's home regions setting poo poo on fire and nuking their poo poo in Delve because, well, they have a large part of their force multiplier unable to log off because it's trapped in bubbles that we will rage form to murder if we see so much as one titan log in

hey goons, congrats for going crazy with an orgy of killfrenzy on a never before seen scale.

hey goons, gently caress you for making me want to play this stupid game again. it's been over two years and I haven't once felt the desire to get back into eve until now. extra special gently caress you to rutibex for making a GBS thread where I would see it!

The jammer got paused at least 3 times in a row by different people:

quote:

(11:50:55 PM) harataka: It was perfect timing or luck to hit it between repair cycle done and someone pressing online
(11:51:18 PM) citlalli: they intentionally turned it off for a bit
(11:51:25 PM) vex_tsnipe: You catch it while it is being cycled.
(11:51:40 PM) vex_tsnipe: If I recall correctly, it was hit and then Acid's Jackdaw fleet came and fully paused it.
(11:51:42 PM) matahashi_satoa: that og propoganda piece is why i joined goons lol
(11:51:51 PM) wwhrbbrhcdechch: idk if hes talking about me but i shot at it before the fight began i died but i hit it
(11:52:17 PM) citlalli: yeah a few people went over and shot it if I recall
...
(11:55:33 PM) xttz: Here's what happened in M2: They dropped a new cynojammer because we had reinforced the original. I had a keepstar gunner alt in system already. When the jammer had about a minute left to anchor, i threw a civilian autocannon on my ceptor and pinged it to start a repair timer. As that was counting down in 15mins real time, tidi started to kick in from everyone jumping in from 5-C next door. Acid's fleet sent guys over to ping it a couple more times to delay them onlining it and by then we had cynos in place
(11:56:07 PM) xttz: credit to the later guys because those 2nd + 3rd pings were much harder to get
(11:56:19 PM) xttz: they had to be down to the exact second
