What’s more annoying is I’m starting to think about turning one of my two combat pilots into something far more fun and have her do the responsible thing. That is, cleaning up all those navigation hazards.

A wonderful blog. I cannot remember how I got here but I’ve spent the past hour or so reading back entries and I not only love the antics, I’ve rather enjoyed the style in which you present them.

Finally, I do so enjoy that you realise the first to lose is the first to resort to profanity. Together with that you not only enjoy a great fight and even look forward to wardec’s but you give credit when it’s due and play the sport well.

After all these years, it has taken only one blog to change a mind set in concrete with regard to can flipping – I salute you O7

I’m indeed suspicious that he may have come out with just the ammo in his guns, with no reloads; it’s an easy mistake to make when you leave the hangar in a hurry.

I can think of only 3 reasons why the fight played out the way it did:
1. The guy came out in such a panic he forgot to load any ammo on board,
2. His skills were so horribly deficient he figured he may as well leave you to it and not risk losing his ship/time.
3. He had it fitted with civillian modules and warp stabilisers

Personally, I’d go with all of the above.

Good work! Once upon a time I despised ‘flippers’ and ‘pirates’, but they taught me valuable lessons and made me a better person, and we can all benefit from the clearer spacelanes ;)
