This is what happens when I try to take a day off.
Oh, all dreads were insured and was running out. Needed to get them popped quick so the pilots can get new ones and fit them properly.
duders didn't wanna destroy rigs.
(amongst other poor choices)
Back in 2006 there was a alliance called ASCN. They had ideas of colonizing space and creating real 0.0 markets that were self-sufficient. They generally talked a big game about how tough they were but were basically just bears. BOB decided to push there shit in about it enter stage left the ASCN public information officer John McCreedy. This chucklefuck would write multiple page long morale blogs explaining away why they were getting curbstomped. I mean it was bad and the more he wrote the more the Eve community laughed at him for it. Ever since the term "McCreedy" means to morale blob while being anally violated in internet spaceships.
I seem to remember snigg dropping some dreads on some publords tower in aridia a few months ago (which then consequently got butt-raped by the then moving in test) so please remember pl were doing dumb before it was hipster and cool.
I still think you have to be a spy to be that stupid on so many levels.

FA are composed entirely of spies spying on spies. It's completely possible that this was actually the actions of a non-spy and all the spies just went along with it.
x up if you're a spy.

John McCreedy is - and I am in no way trolling here - working extremely hard at shitting on the FA/GSF relationship right now, via some horrible convos with our diplomats. One might expect a man who was in Xetic, Ascn, Pure, Iron, Insurgency, Resurgency, Sys-K and Demon Hunters to have a deft touch and a fine judge of political realities but, surprisingly, it's not so!

So can we complain about metagaming instead of supercaps yet?

Not to mention that was a HABIT fuck up, god damn Centra spike, they were however Snigg corp dreads.
On that note, with all of the organization that goes on in these coalitions I was honestly shocked to find that dreads were still being counted as personal assets instead of the alliance level asset that they are.
I mean, wouldn't it be better to keep an average sized stock pile of dreads around that could easily be doled out by directors, each with the EXACT desired fit, instead of hoping your members pool enough dreads of the non shit fit type?
PL's been doing this for as long as we've really had the money to buy dreads afaik, and we move like 5 times a year. Back when fountain was worth a shit ton, we had dread cache's all across EVE, but even now we move the 100 or so dreads each time, just seems that an in place alliance would have a much better time of adopting our alliance dread plan as you hopefully wouldn't have to move them around much after the initial purchase.
things are pretty chill and i'm just waiting for vee to pop on and then we're probably yanking the cages down out of sheer boredom (plus some eager goons hictortrapping or trying to, no doubt)
re: mcreedy, i have kept an eye on the situation (some minor loot scuffle best sorted by our junior diplos, iirc). it doesn't reflect on fa or my love for zagdul. but i noticed because of the history - i remember mcreedy, i remember ascn, i remember the battleship fleet they promised us in XZH and i remember the BoB-fellating reset they sent us instead; i remember virtuozzo begging us to send help as their empire burned and i remember laughing as they died
fuck ascn

FA probably doesn't have the cash to have a dread cache, and they're a tremendous theft risk. If you're rolling in alliance tournament ships or whatever a dread cache is nbd, but keep in mind that GSF (the richest member of the clusterfuck by far) barely has 100b liquid. as a coalition we pretty much blow our cash on lavishing our line members with reimbursable ships
my directors periodically poke me about a dread cache but i've shot it down repeatedly, idk maybe we should do it finally but eeeeeeeeeeenh

Confirming we are still space-broke. We've been talking about alliance / corporate dreads for a while, but income keeps getting diverted elsewhere. This will probably be changing thanks to Technetium™.
Ironically; EDF (McCreedy's corp) actually do have a corporate dread cache.
He probably doesn't have to worry about people going fuckgoons and stealing his wallet either.
Yea, I got to know him a bit when his corp joined IAC in the last months. Massive ego, always threatening to kill people with rusty spoons if they did not do what he told them to do. His view of his corp was so wildly disproportionated with the actual output, it was hilarious really. EDF had like 300 peeps, I saw 10 of them in space. 3 of them joined fleets. Still he maintained that EDF was one of the premier corps of eve.No FC, did not join fleets, their industrial capacity dwarfed by Genco and Minc.
I have seen noob empire mining corps that were better...
I can only speak for my corp, so one of the welped dreads was corp-funded, it makes sense and I certainly hope it's true also for the rest of the -FA- corps.
Supply them with one Dread and say no touchy unless it's playtime, if they lose it up their butts they have to replace it.
It's a rather naive approach, because if said members simply don't have the cash to replace it and cba to work for it, you're still stuck on the cost.
