For everyone looking for a fight:
I'm on a pseudo-break, but send me the mails, and I'll get to them, and to your fights. ISK is certainly not in short supply to pay people, no worry on that end, and the break isn't due to me losing ships recently, those are easy to shrug off. =p
As for spectating, you can believe what you will about the cloak and random passerbys...but my lowsec fights are quite unlikely to generate the possiblity of someone stumbling into local.
The systems are scouted out in advance, are intentionally picked because they are out of the way, and when they are clear, the mercenaries pour in and lock the system down. All this takes place in secret before the fight, so the chance of someone having advance warning of where it is so they can set up a trap is just about null. Even the contestant doesn't know where the exact system in advance.
I've literally taken every possible precaution against our 1v1s being violated...intentionally or not.

Thanks Curzon Dax for the best read in years. I love how you troll back at the forum "Overlord Shadow Hax0rs Killers 15 year olds Pirate Kings wannabes".. I must say that I secretly admire you :)

Feel free to read the thread; I answer this in several places - I will setup individial requests for deviations via EVEmail. Yes, I'll fight in whatever ship class you like, provided that I can pilot one as well. I can't fly much of anything tech2 (except for mining barges), so keep it simple. :)

Edited by: Catov on 14/08/2007 15:28:13 If you think pvp in a bs is fun try a commandship, tanking 7 other ships, or a carrier, couple of bs etc and wondering at which point you can perma tank them. so far most fun was tanking a astarte, rook, lacherous, myrmidon, flycatcher, rifter and a huggin for 20 minutes and lauching becuase i went afk for 10 minutes and they were still wasting ammo. And if you die its only tech 2 stuff so 150m isk loss so you can go ganking all the time. |

Not to Hijack, but someone with this publicity, would you by chance be interested in Frigate Fights at all? Or are they below you?
Impressive record, by the way. I wish I had the SP and the ISK to face you, would be a fun go round.

Sounds like an easy 250 mil :), If curzon doesn't take it up I'll happily accept.

Will need a few days to build a ship/raise sec. As you are ruling out domi's i'd like to rule out passive shield myrms, have flown one myself and know how cheap they are 1v1. You are not required to fill a mid with a warp disruptor and can use damps if you need them. I will send you an evemail next time i'm on.

Also, somewhere in lowsec will be fine, as long as it's not a very populated system. Doesn't have to be highsec: we can flag to each other on a gate, and let sentry guns take care of 'tards who try to interrupt it. --- What doesn't manage to kill you... has made a tactical error.

Fight went down, I came packing 4x large smartbombs and 4x nos.. After 2 desynchs we continued on.. at 5% structure Siren warped out feigning a desynch of his own (but his ship did not autowarp back to our safespot.. which means he warped from the duel).
He then declared the duel invalid and refused to pay up the 250 mil or faction ship mods (domination web).

Restarting the fight should not have happened after even the first desync that you had. Additionally, my rate of cap loss from before you desync'd to after you desync'd was way, way off balance. You claim letting your cap run dry, yet I remained webbed?
The fight is void. You keep your ship, and I keep mine. You obviously came to this fight not looking for a legitimate duel, but a gank of faction gear. As if I would fit a Domination web in a duel I know will be against a battleship.
Good day to you, sir. --- What doesn't manage to kill you... has made a tactical error.

Edited by: Siren Sylvanis on 23/08/2007 05:52:22 Edited by: Siren Sylvanis on 23/08/2007 05:50:06 Battleship challenge, dishonored?
The scenario is this.
I challenged Curzon Dax, both on his Battleship Challenge thread and through Eve-mail, with a wager of 250 mill. Payout, given Curzon Dax's 5:1 odds, would be 1.25 bill. My conditions were that I would be battling in my Myrmidon against Dax's battleship, and second, that the battleship of his choice would not be a NosDomi.
Before the duel, we negotiated that Nos-fitted Dominixes would be ruled out, but battleship-sized Nosferatu would still be allowed. We negotiated, further, a few more conditions.
-No ECM -Curzon Dax can fire the first shot
In addition, Curzon asked me to up the ante, and I raised the bet to 500 mill. Curzon then, and I quote, saud,
"will you settle for 2.5:1 odds? Let me rephrase. You WILL settle for 2.5:1 odds."
I figured I didn't have a choice, so I accepted. Curzon undocked his ship, we flagged aggro to each other, and warped off to the engagement spot (P5, M1). There were two spectators: boogaboob (who had both of us locked) and TheBinary (who didn't).
I warped into the moon at 0, and find his Scorpion 100km away. He locks me, and I find myself suddenly sensor damped. I MWD towards him. At 30km, I find myself dual webbed (dual officer web) and hit by a rack of Nos. At 24km, I'm scrammed. My cap dies fast, and I'm hitting boosters to keep my MWD up (240m/s). With my MWD active, I gain on him, but the cycle ends and he gains again. It ends with me out of boosters, and him in a 15km orbit around me, plinking me with two torpedo launchers.
With my shields at 50%, he offers surrender to me. I refuse. He tells me he doesn't want to kill my ship, and has only killed 1 in all of his challenges. I tell him that I refuse.
With my armor at 80%, he tries to ransom me for 50 mill. Declares that if I pay him 50m, he'll let my ship live. I refuse, and tell him to fight it to the end.
As I'm 80% into structure, I launch drones, while watching my cap and waiting for the 1 point of cap I need to keep my DCU going. My drones aggro and zoom towards him after a while, and they start chewing at him. He switches targets, hitting my Ogre II with torpedoes (it doesn't work). boogaboob, in a shuttle, confirms that his shields are disappearing, and he warps out with his armor at 75-90%.
I claim a victory. He claims that his Overview was bugged, and that his drone control window was missing though he had drones in his ship. Furthermore, he claims I had an advantage, in that he hasn't undocked in 3 months and barely knows how to fly in space. On these terms, he claims that the fight was not fair.
Though he returned the 500 mill I transferred to him for good faith before the fight, he has yet to pay me the 1.25 billion which was promised before the duel.
Curzon, please see the thread in Crime and Punishment. --- What doesn't manage to kill you... has made a tactical error.

*sigh*
An unhappy resolution to a fight is never a good thing.
When the fight started, and I went to unleash my drones, my drone menu was missing. My choices were to leave the fight, or fight on. Since Siren didn't bring out drones, I decided to continue. My drones (5x tech2 mediums and 5x tech2 lights) would have ended the fight 5 minutes earlier, and if necessary, killed your own drones.
I'm not a cheating kind of person - you play poker with me, I've paid out billions before in losing - hell, even General Starscream, whose only acquaintance I have is that he showed up and flamed/bragged on my thread here -- took 2 billion from me in one hand of poker. The problem is that a display bug, or whatever happened, resulted in my drones being unusable.
I can't in good faith declare it a valid fight; sorry. My petition ended in repackaging my ship and getting reimbursed for the insurance. I tried to write this story last night, but about 10 minutes after the fight 0530ish - I got booted from Eve, and the server stopped taking connections. And the forums were 404. Guess it wasn't just me.
*shrugs* Regardless, I will proceed how I feel I must. Sorry that you feel burned Siren. I'd have expected better from you given our history playing poker together; you of all people should know I'm not a cheat.

Edited by: Skaaj on 23/08/2007 18:18:38 I am actually a fan of yours Curzon, I can't fly battleships myself but one day when I can I was planning on challenging you, however I do wish anyone who wants to challenge in the meantime to read this.
However please don't get caught up in the flames, this is not the point of my post, I like to think of myself as level headed and fair. I just believe that Curzon acting as his conscience deems he should has led him astray.
I will happily retract this post if curzon can show me fair logic in the arguement, however I agree with alot of the other people on the forums, that he knew the problem he had before the fight started, he even says that he told his opponent, however he continued with the dual and should have gone down with pride and in flames (not the kind you find on the CandP section of the forums!!)
I have just one question to ask of you Curzon, when you told Siren Sylvanis that you were having problems, did you both agree to a different set of rules? where neither of you used drones? because unless you did (and have proof) then the fact you lost to Siren is clear.
I would ask a Dev to lock this thread and any future threads of it's kind from Curzon, purely because Scam threads are not allowed and Siren Sylvanis was definately scammed... however Dev's hardly ever do anything when asked anyway

Fair logic: Sure. :)
I told Siren last night that I would deal with it. I got disconnected from Eve, the server stopped taking connection, and the forums were 404. I wake up this morning to a 3 page thread in C&P where he's calling me a scammer.
At that point, my sympathy went to 0. The chance of him getting paid went from...probably around 98% to 0%. I intended to deal with it as I did the last one - leaving it up to the community to decide the right course of action. He chose to preempt that course of action by spinning a tale with partial chat logs, heavily biased, missing some critical details, etc.
Unfortunate that I got into it so late into the game, however he chose not to wait for me to get back into Eve and deal with it. At this point, I'm not rewarding him for his actions. Patience is a virtue. Whining and libel is not. To be frank; if I had known this was going to develop, I would have kept his entry fee instead of refunding it. :)

Originally by: Curzon Dax Fair logic: Sure. :)
You tried to ransom the guy during the fight then realized you were going to loose so you warped off and told him the game was bugged.
You are a scam artist. You were happy to take his ISK then broke your word when you realized you were going to loose.
Fact is you should have called the fight off or postponed it until the bug was resolved, you did not. You went in confident you could win, so confident you tried to ransom him during the fight.
This event needs to be locked as it is a scam.

You know, I think you're lieing. I believe you had no intention of paying him a dime, as per your post in the other thread where you state this:
Originally by: Curzon Dax Sorry - there is no more resolution now than you being refunded your entry fee - which was done last night.
Originally by: Curzon Dax He chose to preempt that course of action by spinning a tale with partial chat logs, heavily biased, missing some critical details, etc.
Sure. Your word vs. his, and you're looking worse with every post. Open mouth, insert foot...

You know, you could do the right thing and just pay him. Everything was nice and fine until you started getting beat down like a red-headed step-child, by your own admission, no less. You agreed to go forward with the duel, even after supposedly 'finding a bug with your overview missing the drones tab' (which I'm inclined to think it's also BS; you probably forgot to put them on). You still haven't posted any links to screenshots so the 'community can make a decision'.
I believe the community is now coming to the conclusion that you're a half-baked arrogant rich mongrel that will run at the first sign that things are not going his way, and cry 'FOUL!' as soon as someone puts a hurtin' on you.
I think your reputation went from... 95% decent to around 0%.
Note: these are my personal views and in no way should be taken as those of my corp or alliance.

No, he's already been paid;
My objection was to him taking to the forums and calling me a scammer while I was incapable of getting into Eve to resolve this with him.
Eh...
