During the fountain invasion I was doing some SC work and trying to stop TEST's well known fleet cyno dude at the time (I forgot his name, always flew a nullified tengu to bridge their fleets in) from getting into a system that the TCU was ticking over on, we had turned him back a few times because we had littered the gate with cans and wrecks at the standard decloak ranges, entre Eingang Vulpine who jumped into my op channel and started ordering my fleet around, and literally dropped a "You had better listen to me I'm a diplo" line when I told her to gently caress off, that we were busy, and I was in all the channels I needed to be in if someone wanted me to move legit (No one knew why she felt the need to flounce in and order someone around, sooo).

Better do what I say, or I'm gonna pull space rank on you!

maybe this winter. Summer is finally here (first week of warm temperature) and i'm enjoying my new ... bbq? Deadtear, did the thread ever reach concensus on what I bought? A grill or a bbq?

Grills have wheels on them in most cases, BBQs range from a variety of things ranging from huge brick monstrosities to literal dirt holes.

Can confirm, I wondered how Bisu ended up in the red, he's generally pretty funny (though I appreciate anyone who shits on Predator Elite on a regular basis).

Predator Elite hasn't been laughed out of the game yet?

AT is double-elimination so if we get poo poo on in the first round proper we could still pull ourselves out through the hell bracket.

I mean, yeah- if you forget about those try hard teams that lose intentionally before a tough match to preserve their god comp secret so they can dominate bad players with the same setup straight to the finals, yeah- never stop believing though.

Part of me wants Goons to win just so I can witness the sheer autistic rage r/eve would throw for at least 2 weeks. The other part of me knows it will never happen, and you should have held on to that 'oh lord, that stupid, irrelevant attempt at making EVE into an eSport? Yeah, we want nothing to do with that' card.

As for forcing fights - dropping a few stager Citadels on the doorstep of a group which actively defends its space is a good way to force a fight of some kind.

This works, for about a week.

Most people are willing to get farmed for a week, then they realize, 'well- they can't really do anything, so gently caress 'em'. No more 'content'.

Who's worse- DurrHurrDurr or Boat?

Its not even a fair comparison. Boat is likable.

I'd say they both have their moments, I played a lot of OG stuff with Durr back in the day- from Minecraft to Tropico, and it was usually pretty hilarious.

Why did they take this out? Seems like having vital infrastructure to attack would make for more interesting conflicts.

Because apparently paying billions of isk a month in Sov bills isn't enough to justify some sort of home-space advantage.

people with no infrastructure cried hard about how it made travel too safe

Clearly they never had the pleasure of fueling the loving things.

I had to see how greyscale put jump fatigue in Albion, and holy poo poo was I not let down. This is still the best thread in games.

I want to make a joke about 'Sub Fatigue' here, but I don't know poo poo about Albion Online.

Wait- Is AO just Torchlight online? Because it looks like Torchlight Online.

FC's used to trick us into escorting them. It was the only way they could get escort fleets.

A very middling piece of a rent check was enough encouragement for me.
