Well, that escalated quickly.
So if people see us as the bad guys in pocket Eve, and we leave the fake PL/Goons/Valfucks and join the splinter group real Goons, are we now the anti-heroes, or the real heroes? Little bees want to know.

I'm waiting for there to be enough splinter corps that we can super glue them all together and build one big happy goon tree.

If we're trying to speedrun EE at this point we're doing great. We've got a group of people trying to take advantage of playing EE from the start and getting setup as the old guard with overbearing control in Delve aiming to treat allies and sub corps like poo poo. The we also have a group of Goons bothered by that who want to try and actually enjoy the game instead.

Well with EO there are still the standard BoB etc people there, they are still around. With this game? I think the most important thing is we take the piss out of the fact around people taking it signficiantly serious enough and run full systems of "you must get this amount of fleet battles to stay / contribute this / tax at 100%" kind of thing. I was seeing the previous corporation/alliance going down the path of serious business so I am happy to see that this is less serious business.

Serious business is alright, but I not longer have the time to sit floating in space for 5 hours orbiting a gate while someone comes online occasionally and yells "STOP making GBS threads UP COMMS"

That is my throughts around it anyway.

Yeah right now we’re just finding out how to have fun as goons and all work together. We have people like Kris who have been in multiple goon games who are stepping up and making cool tools so goons can do cool things.

It’s the first time I have felt good about our direction yet, and that’s because we’re working with familiar faces trying to help.

I had so much fun playing talking to goons on EVE Echoes that I got my fully fitted Coercer II - which was equivalent to half of my total wealth - blown up by an incoming wave of rats on a tier 5 mission. And there's no insurance. Good game, would get popped again.

last I saw in the notgoons discord before i got turbobanned for calling valador a pubbie gently caress was that everything is NBSI, and they pointedly have not set GROO or Ten Dollar Bond blue, so yeah you're probably gonna have nerds shooting at you, both pubbies and low info goons.

It was like a xoom meeting about spreadsheets and spaceships. But no video so couldn't tell if anyone was jerkin it.

If anyone is still on the fence, this already seems more organized than any other clan/guild I've been involved with, but with no high pressure stakes. I have no idea what I'm doing and just spinning my ship while doing highsec missions and I still feel like a member of the team.

Greater Goon Emergency Leadership Council: Transparency Announcement

2020-08-25: Today, Pharnakes and the Emergency Leadership Council were approached by SonBanana as an envoy of what he termed as the GSE’s Leadership Council. He was the polite, earnest, and passionate Banana many know him to be.

Banana explained that Valador has stepped down both as leader of the alliance, and that their council consisting of SonBanana, Valador, Skew, Silmerias, Chillmatica, Bravo, and Clare Scarlet, and among other asks, are requesting that Greater Goon (re)join the alliance.

SonBanana also pledged his word that he - and they - want us to all be “blue forever”, in his words. The Emergency Leadership Council is in mutual agreement that all Goons should remain blue to one another.

Upon consideration, and for avoidance of all doubt - the Emergency Leadership Council categorically rejects the proposal made by GSE. Their proposal is at the bottom of this announcement per the screenshot provided by SonBanana.

The GROO Emergency Leadership Council rejects this proposal on the grounds that the self-described GSE Leadership Council is not representing the legitimate will of EE Goons.

Per the GROO’s Fireside Chat this evening, Greater Goon will be returning the assets back to GSE that were held for safekeeping by Pharnakes.

We are, however, intent on maintaining the status quo and staying blue to GSE and its constituent corps, for a period of a week, during which time further discussions on the part of the Emergency Leadership Council and legitimate representatives of the remaining GSE members may revisit this subject.

Greater Goon has in a scant 24 hours demonstrated that you - the members of EE Goons - are the heart of Goons in EE, and the Emergency Leadership Council intends to continue to honor your collective will.
