Original post on Test forums by Johann Landier

I have spent forever getting the right skills to finally get my Carrier Pilot up to standard. As a matter of fact my corp has higher standards (Sentry 5/JDC5 for example) the our minimum's before we are allowed to join cap op's. Truth be told it always sort of upset me cause I wanted to fight my carrier.
Today I got my skills right and was allowed into the group.. It's also my birthday...so My fiancee was like do what ever you want today. So I went for a flight in my plane this morning and then logged on and waited for some kind of cap op so I could murder goons.. I was rewarded with a IHUB SHield rep op. A couple of alliance mates helped me get set up and off I went. Everything went well other then I felt like a 5 day old noob but I finally got everything set up just as we finished. I had not swapped to a cap fit (this later saved my ass) because I was just about to swap fits when we finished the op so I just left my combat fit in.
Anyways it was at this point when two things happen the FC called to jump home and my son who also was excitedly watching my first carrier op dumped water all over my mac.
My mic went dead, my screen started dimming and flashing, and I DC'd . As I got EVE open again on another computer I could still hear mumble on my waterlogged mac. I heard you have less then a minute to jump or don't log in. So I logged in and I hear jump as soon as you land. Easy enough and I start to relax... Problem is there is a Tengu waiting on me and I land to a point.
The FC is like jump I type (no mic remember) sorry can't...he is like why?...I type been tackled. I dropped sentries..start doing a scan to give intel when my overview went red, I was webbed, bubbled... I was tanking but I knew it was a matter of time.
This is where my CEO's instruction to always have a cyno fit and some ozone saved my life. The FC asked if I had a cyno I said yes but let me die. I did not want to risk any ships. The FC told me to shut up and light my cyno. So I did.
And the Rebel Cap fleet counter dropped the droppers. First thing they did was make sure I was getting reps and cap and then they went to work. Needless to say the Goons ran away and then TEST FC said get on the Cyno ship. So I keep looking for it and realize.. Oh thats me. So my TEST Brothers surround me (the autistic Tribe Cousin) and sit with me as my cyno burns out and we finally go home.
One thing I also realized later is someone was calling out shield status and I realized someone was monitoring my shields.
By the way once my son realized what his accident had done he started crying so I am having to do all this and console him. At the end he was like thats why I want to be TEST. They saved your ship and killed the Goons. Those who have read my prior post's know my son and his friends play's EVE with his lego's and he is always TEST and makes his friends play the Goons.
Anyways Thanks to Tribes real Bro's TEST and Thanks for riding in and saving my ass! My Birthday first cap op could have ended in rage but ya'll showed me again the reason I play this game.
I think the best phrase's I saw in chat was
Tribe bait best bait
The only casualty of the day was my old mac I was using is now dead. But the good thing is I got a new one for my Birthday! Will Fountain be Goonswarm's Waterloo?Read all about it in COAD. |
