You are correct, good sir.
Ordo also had about 30billion isk worth of loans from goons as well. So far two aeons and a nyx. http://eve-kill.net/?a=kill_related&kll_id=9800115(2:20:30 PM) Ordo (FREE ME) GArr: who feels like doing a small "thing" in 30-40min

This "Supercaps are overpowered" argument is gay. Save it for another thread. It's only relevence to NC is that you didn't speak up while you were happy with having one of the largest SC fleets in the game.

They had reasonably close to parity then. They don't now. It's all well and good to say that more aggressive leadership might pull a victory out of the fire and restore morale, but it looks more like Custer charging the Lakota/Cheyenne/whatever the other one was at this point. Give them a reason to believe they can win and they'll bring them out.
Yes yes, you were 'active' by having *goodfites* while losing all the tech right back to the NC and then went and picked on the hapless western NC for a while. PL will never have any trouble keeping subcap morale high, especially against the NC. At the strategic level, though, the fight ended right there.Your memory is as bad as your opinions, we were active for a very long time after the 2nd welp, its been pointed out already but since you're not paying attention I'll remind you:
For nearly 30 days after the Venal welp we were still in Venal, then we moved to Pure Blind, ONE FUCKING JUMP AWAY, and stayed there for another month and a half.
I wouldn't call that 'ending our operations in that area', I'd call that you believing the bullshit you are spoon fed.
Expecting the NC to gain morale from losing a supercap fight indicates a major disconnect with how the NC thinks and doesn't jive well with how other groups have responded to it either...
Ordo GArr basically said 'hey guys i have a recruitment scam, come gank this dude's carrier/rorqual with me' and then got hotdropped by real goons
The Aeon dropped a full slave set.
Anyone care to speculate just how much of PLs supercap power was deployed to roflstomp the goon ships? I'm trying to make an accurate assessment of the number of supers they have, so far seems around fifty.
fuck beaten to it
Stop being so serious. What a bunch of killjoys.
[05:28:32] Damienwhat Solette > friend said, if only they didn't have those 2 falcons there, i said they have 3, and he said that just says they don't want to do anything fair, just want to be dicks about it like not normal dicks but big black huge cocks
(21:52:34) the_mittani: also the nc is totally shitting the bed, not even posting ops to save their own shit anymore
(21:52:36) the_mittani: that's over
(21:52:51) the_mittani: morsus is basically done
Welp, we're fucked, there goes 6 regions of buffer.
did goons just reset nc then?

you guys have no honour
berius you troller of troll, will there be announcements or are you just trying to give us false hope (((((
I think it's probably safe to say we'll probably be resetting ordo garr.
Calling it now, Mittens will establish DBRB as the new monarch of the NC
Tribute going to become the free fall area Delve was supposed to be when IT died?
RzR is snatching up empty sov in Tenal like its going out of style. Anyone care to elaborate?
http://evemaps.dotlan.net/sovereignty
well, I guess I got mine
Probably a silly attempt to harden Tenal. Because if Tribute falls I'm sure the NC will band around Tenal o protect their [s]ANZA[/s] Razor BFFs.
I think the current trend is to lower rent cost for the first month if the new inhabitants have to clean up themselves.
Last time I/GSRecon looked into it (and this was 6 months ago) they had 21 titans and 102 supercarriers active across all timezones. They'll only have been acquiring more since, of course.
They seem to have a strong preference for Gallente.![]()
....and why have they (RZR) asked for a translator? I was not choosen because I post too much![]()
Your avatar would be too distracting.
I'm so totally going to found a Jabber Alliance just to repay all the confusion![]()
Actually RZR are putting up TCUs so they can install hubs. That way Stellar Polaris, WI, MM, RAGE, ME and whoever else will be crashing on their couch will have sanctums to run.

In his own words:
Here's basically what happened:
Back around the end of april I decided to ask a question about why we have so many regions blue, and when was it going to stop. Instead of answering my question mittani made up some shit about me and perma-readonly'd me, so heh.
Later I was told we had so many blues because they were valuable in our war against the DRF/PL and without them we'd be screwed, as they are all amazing spaceship warriors who can win. Well, they didn't win, and some of these shitty allies that I despise are still blue, so heh.
I then decided to make a bond, with no intention of what to do with it, I thought maybe I'd pull through, or maybe I'd fuck goons. After I got 30bil isk in roughly 14 hours (without posting once), I decided to talk to salastil+phreeze+penif, and it was suggested that I should awox supers, which I thought would be hilarious.
Later on I came up with a relatively believable back story as to why I needed a whole pile of supers, so I said there was some sort of scam going down. After I got a few people to commit I talked to penif+salastil+bmerc (topgoon[555], youtuber and suxpool on SA, respectively) and we set up logged off hictors where I'd cyno our supers into. Once our supers landed shit got real really fast, and a massive PL super fleet showed up and raped face, and I danced off into the sunset. I'm now going to ISRAD to carry the torch that burns with the true flame of gooniness.
Total isk haul: 29.5bil
Dead supers: 2 dead aeons, 1 dead nyx
Guy convos me (Salastil) and says he wants to join ISRAD, I looked through his API and shit and it appears he can pass the initial hurdle of competency and even has a Nyx albeit on a very shit character only good for holding it. However since he is apart of people we're actively fighting, I was hesitant to accept him directly to corp. I tell him we're probably going to send him to Sniggwaffe until this Northern shit pans out unless he can do some serious fucking bridge burning. He tells me he has taken out 30b in loans before he even contacted me. I don't really view cash scams even on that level as good bridge burning material. "Scammed" cash could be returned after you insert a spy into the corp after all. I ask Penifsmash what would be decent enough bridge burning material to get into EO without our usual trial run in Sniggwaffe. He says outright Supercap kills, awoxing sub caps is pointless since bots generate so much fucking cash that it's replaced before you even get home. I chat him up and try running him through possible options for snaring them. All the while he is leaking shit like this. I invite Penifsmash(corp CEO) and Phreeze(FC opinion to coordinate a gank) to the convo and come to a consensus that supercaps are the best means. We give him information to contact us and we leave it at that.
Next day he convos me while I was afk which autoaccepted and says he could potentially get supers to come if it was no threat PvP like a recruitment scam killing a JF+Carrier. He wants to do it on Friday the 27th which was supposed to be the big throwdown fight night. Phreeze asks it to be postponed until Saturday since the fight was supposed to be a big one and would need full attention. We move the gank to 4pm EST on the 28th. Penifsmash posts the op since he has more e-cred than I do in PL and would swing bigger numbers to fleet. At about 2pm Penifsmash gets Billy Merc in on the deal to watch for counter drops via spies and to assist with getting shit hammered down on our end. So after that point we have to wait and hope for morons to join Ordo's fleets. At 3:45pm all we had was a single Aeon which was rather disappointing. However most people know that NC/Goons are notorious for showing up 30min after an op's scheduled start time so we wait. At 4pm on the nose we have 2 Aeons and a Nyx. Call to light cynos are up and we have the goons jump to Ordo's Hictor and we jump to our cyno immediately next to it. Goons shit pants and we kill them while spamming local calling goons pubbies.
Oddly enough we (Goonswarm) had a small shield HAC roam going which jumped into EWOK literally by coincidence as this was all going down. It was a bit of a pants-shitting moment to jump in on our way to lowsec and see cynos and 100 reds in local. Unfortunately we arrived too late to do anything (not that 20 guys in Vagabonds could have done much to hictors and supercaps in any case), but one of the super pilots was on our TS as he went down. He sounded pretty chill about it, actually.
Darwin took his cut in Vale and now look at the NC position, and he also helped Atlas' pets out before they themselves were pushed off a cliff.
Strengthening your satellite alliances is a worthwhile goal, but simply losing them weakens the core. The kind of positive culling you're referring to is when they don't even participate in fleets at all (so its just the same as you never having them anyway) - but at bloc level combat esp. NC pre-DRF invasion you can expect good turnout from all the satellite alliances, even if they weren't very good. As Kaeydan once put it, 10 idiots being told what to do will more often than not outweigh that awesome 1 elite guy.
Leaving allies or pets hang out to dry is generally bad policy unless they genuinely are useless or better replacements are available.
