Jazz why is it that you find yourself running these MMO games? Is the leadership pool in SA that shallow?

My understanding is that with the groon leadership actively cannibalizing itself and basically everyone else stepping down this afternoon/evening, WanderingBishop messaged some people with SA goon game leadership experience they trusted to steer things.

I'm kinda disappointed in how Pharnakes is handling all of this, but it is what it is. We'll move on and keep dealing with poo poo.

so far every leadership meltdown has been the result of that leadership completely failing to read the room and assuming the alliance was with them.

The one thing I absolutely, 100% trust Jazz to do is never make that assumption, at least. :D

I'm talking about the skill chip. The day 21 Omega bonus is a skill chip for level 4 Battlecruiser Command, which my skill page says is a T7 skill.

It may not let you use it until you hit t7, or it may let you do it anyway as an exception and just not let you train the skill further. The 30 day omega bonus reward is a battlecruiser with T0 requirements so that may be a special bonus thing for people who aren't T7 yet to use battlecruisers anyway.

The as-yet-unnamed coalition has 4 corps as of the end of tonight, since there were space issues before. [HONK], [HAUS], [XBUX], and [MEAN]. When everyone gets off their 24 hour cooldown from leaving or getting kicked from Groon, both of the new ones should be at a decent capacity and we'll have plenty of room for more new people to filter in before we need to think about adding more.

Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with POOH. I saw a bunch of gross character names and there were a couple people kicked from our discord because they were members, but then nothing came of that because the leadership explosion happened immediately following it.

If y'all are goons and not total shitters then I don't think there's any reason to go after you, and I think there may have been miscommunication there. I dunno how leadership feels or what they know.


LOL never mind I guess, see below.

Hello friendo, glad you joined our merry band here at somethingawful.com . I regret to inform you that folks who play eve are loving obsessed about folks who join something awful to get into the eve corps. Due to this unhealthy obsession, you probably won't ever be able to join any of the "cool" corps. Some of this is due to "spying", but the majority of it is because eve folks are loving CREEPY.

Explore the forum, learn to not get probed too often, and forget about eve gaming with goons.

After the past couple weeks I think people are more than justified to be suspicious of fresh registrations trying to get into an eve corp, tbh.

Also for most goon gaming groups, the idea is to play with other members of Something Awful, not people who see how big we are in a game and decide to pay 10 dollars so they can play with us. Not saying that's the case for this particular guy, but with old EvE Online and WoW groups that was definitely common. Hell, we had it happen multiple times when the Politics and War alliance was going, they even posted j4g threads in GBS. And that was a crappy browser game that we were playing specifically to gently caress with people.

I'm a bit behind on the goings and such, why did we move to Taisy? It's not a trading station and seems like an interesting choice for base of operations. I moved my stuff there but just wondering the reason.

It's a lowsec station adjacent to both nullsec and highsec, it's fairly close to Alikara and then Jita which are both ITCs, the nullsec space it's right next to is extremely valuable and Taisy is one of the only entrances into it so it's easy to control once we start patrolling it.

We've popped like 6 deadspace anomalies since friday night in Tribute (the null region next to Taisy) and by all accounts we're kicking the asses of any pubbies that try to mine there.
