The really sad thing is that even though Happy assassinated his own team captain and then self-destructed, Frater STILL couldn't win the match. That is truly sad.

Beggers belief really. Must go down as one of the least successful assassinations ever. Hilarious though.

Eh, all we wanted to do was grease Issler. She got greased first, by a member of her own sad squad. What more could we ask for? We had no beef with the rest of her team - I think it's funny they still won. ;)

Quote: [16:47:07] Happy Joymaker > <br>You have been gagged by GM Zhainius until 2009.01.31 16:57:53. GM Zhainius's reason was: You were warned not to talk in local.
Yes. I was sent to kill Issler, whose alt is Denze. If you look, all my damage was done to Denze. After that, I turned off my hardeners and hit self destruct, although the other team choose to kill me instead of taking the chance. After that, I warped what I thought was to the exit in the system, but instead it was to the gate. Because of the large number of chat windows that appeared, I wasnÆt able to warp over to the exit in time before the GMÆs podded me (I missed their initial warning, and when I realized what was up, my pod was going down û lets hope CCP follows up and replaced the 300 odd mil in implants as they did say that there was no podding in the tournament, even if they are the ones that do it).
My corp, The Dead Parrot Shoppe, Inc., was the former leaders of Bruce. I was and am still a part of the corp leadership, even with Bruce having folded. Issler was in the Bruce Allinace, and made a lot of enemies at that time. Eventually, Issler did enough to actually be kicked out of the alliance. The last straw that got Issler removed was he bribed Huzzah Federation, our enemies at the time, to move a freighter around. But, that really was the last straw, there were many things that happened that drove the alliance to kicking Issler and her corp Tada-O out.
So, back to why: We, some the former leaders of Bruce just decided to try and see if it would work. Just for the fun of it. I sent Issler an evemail asking if I could join their team. No background check or anything, they just said yes. I kinda felt bad, as they are really a corp of industrialists mostly. So, I ended up giving them a lot of fitting advice and other good info, like how to reduce lag. I am also glad that it worked out for the Honda Accord at the end. I hear that they did win off of points after the fact, so, super grats to them. They had a big deficit, and they pulled it out.

The reasons behind it are known to the Honda Accord, who really are the ones that it matters to know to. How it happened is simple:
I sent Issler an evemail asking if I could join their team. No background check or anything, they just said yes. I kinda felt bad, as they are really a corp of industrialists mostly. So, I ended up giving them a lot of fitting advice and other good info, like how to reduce lag. I am also glad that it worked out for the Honda Accord at the end. I hear that they did win off of points after the fact, so, super grats to them. They had a big deficit, and they pulled it out.
So after our first match we discussed allowing new members to help the next team. When I got Happy's mail and thought back to our time in BRUCE and post BRUCE I couldn't think of any negative encounters and no other alliance member could think of any negative experiences with Happy so as to background check, seemed we had it handled. I am a trusting person and sometimes that can cause issues when you encounter folks with low character like the clowns that are some of the artifacts of BRUCE. I would point out that we put him in a dead corp with no roles and did watch him pretty carefully. At the most we felt he might leak our plans but felt the risk of that was minimal. Spies to help win a match we expected, spies to do something so silly we could not have imagined.
A sad panda epic fail assasination attempt as a result of a grudge held by a dead alliance? Wow! Well FOOM was named based on a Monti Python sketch so maybe humor was the goal.
As for advice, we had our plans in place before Happy joined and in fact our most amazing idea, the Blackbird of Counfoundment had nothing to do with Happy. So as to Happy's help in planning and fitting, it was minimal.
I hope that CCP does NOT reimburse. There are mentions in the rules about podding as a penalty. I also think these sorts of shenanigans are not in keeping with the spirit of the tourny. If the ghost of BRUCE had gripes they should have signed up as a team and settled it in the arena. Instead, in typical BRUCE epic fail fashion they manage the following:
- They raise the visibility of the match so this will be discussed for some time to come
- They make us look better at PvP than we could have ever expected
- They cost me nothing as my lost was insured
- They FAIL at assasination since I wasn't podded and Denz was a JC alt that wouldn't have mattered if they had
- And finally, they look like idiots for the worst assasination attempt ever
The only net negative is we likely don't advance and I never got to fire a shot this match. Well, there will be a next time.

Personally I think it was a pretty neat way of getting revenge, was a GHSC-esque assassination, infiltrate your team and then kill your fc.
When I was listening I thought you guys were intentionally killing off your own team to increase your chances of progressing. As if scores are tied who goes through is determined by how well their opponents scored.
Sounds like the other alliance failed to capitalize on the dramas and made a fair few mistakes.

Wow, that is a seriously good point! Happy could have easily helped this round, we would have advanced and the ACTUAL assasination could have occured live on Eve TV coverage. Much cooler for The Dead BRUCE Shop and a bigger dissappointment for us. Oh, Happy could have gotten a jump clone by then and saved the 300 mil (he claims) in implants he lost.
Sigh, now I remember why I lost faith in the BRUCE leadership, it was their nonstop bad idea factory. I guess FOOM took it with them and still have it fueled and online.

Yea, interesting match for sure.
Was a fun fight in the midst of all the confusion.
If the info of the internal malfunction had been leaked we wouldn't have wasted time on that target . . . maybe.
Kudos to the Blackbird. Had our Command ship pilot swearing on comms, lol.

We went into this with very low expectations. We are basically industrialist that are just learning how to make things go boom. We did want to leave an impression and we definitely will have done that for some time to come!

You did not simply warp once and then get podded - you were moved to a beacon, warped to a gate, and asked again to not move and you did not comply. You were podded in accordance with tournament rules. Therefore, your implants will not be reimbursed.

Originally by: Faraelle Brightman Ok, I heard the match but someone give me the tl;dr summary of who hates who and why here? And what the heck FOOM have to do with it?
Tada O was one of the founding corporations of BRUCE and played a major part in getting BRUCE established in Syndicate. The management styles of BRUCE and Tada O were horribly incompatible and Tada O was tossed out of BRUCE. Tada O went on to form The Honda Accord and proceeded to forget about the sadness of BRUCE. For some reason FREED and some of the other "Ghosts of Failed BRUCE" still have an axe to grind, got a spy on our team (because by now we figured bygones are bygones and trusted Happy) Happy the spy tried to assasinate me when the match started.
I am going to say the concept was great but the execution was horrible and in the end our team still went on to win.
So Happy didn't matter, he lost a ship and 300 mil in implants when he couldn't comply with the GM's instructions and was podded.
Just another day in space,
Denz

Honestly, I could not give a rats ass as to whether or not Honda continues. That was not the purpose of this exercise. I do not speak for FOOM, but I believe we did it because it was funny as hell for us and to enact some late revenge for the really stupid things Issler did in Bruce. You all want to keep dwelling on it, thats fine. Our point was made, our wallets are fine, and we had a jolly good time. "We are here for our fun, not yours". |

We really do care, so we feel the need to post to clarify things. We lost more isk value and effectively didn't matter (because they still won and our spy didn't even do the most damage to a target he was setup to kill), but we can laugh at anything if we try hard enough.

Originally by: Happy Joymaker I wasnÆt able to warp over to the exit in time before the GMÆs podded me (I missed their initial warning, and when I realized what was up, my pod was going down û lets hope CCP follows up and replaced the 300 odd mil in implants as they did say that there was no podding in the tournament, even if they are the ones that do it).
You did not simply warp once and then get podded - you were moved to a beacon, warped to a gate, and asked again to not move and you did not comply. You were podded in accordance with tournament rules. Therefore, your implants will not be reimbursed.
Um, really? OK. Don't remember seeing the teleport at all. Was this before or after the ship blew up? Because as soon as I saw I was in my pod, I for some reason didn't think of the exit beacon. I warped to the single gate in the system (habit, I guess, warp to some celestial to get out of the battle zone). Then I was busy for a few minutes with various convo's and setting a new skill (the last one just finished - great timing). At that time a GM (name withheld) came over and said to move to the exit, but by the time I noticed it he was in the process of podding me. Other than that one single warp I did, I didn't move or hit any sort of movement commands. I donÆt remember any ôstay stillö orders, and I checked my logs, it was defiantly:
Quote:
[ 2009.01.31 16:29:18 ] GM XXXXX > Happy Joymaker warp to the exit beacon [ 2009.01.31 16:29:26 ] GM XXXXX > Or you will be podded
Podding happened about 3 minutes later. No pod mail, so not sure of the actual time (guess I could check the logs to see when the session change happened if it is important).
I am not fighting. Not arguing at all. A set of +4's and some missile implants that I bought just for this fight are not worth it. This is just an internet spaceship game after all, and the 300-odd mil I can earn back in a day or so of Jita trading. I am just curious is all, because from how I am reading what youÆre saying isn't jiving with what I saw and did? Could I have missed the teleport? Yes, easily. I was rather distracted at the moment. I donÆt think I did miss it, but it is a definite possibility particularly if you didnÆt use the Cyno graphic. I also freely admit to warping to the gate on accident and missing the request to move to the exit beacon until too late. However, as to moving or not moving once I was there, it did not happen. I didnÆt notice that someone was shooting me until I saw the pod shields and armor going; then ended up in the system I was jumped to the Tournament grounds from, not my normal clone station, all before I could react. It wasnÆt until after that I even realized it was a GM that shot me and not a member of the Honda Accord that warped to me as I originally assumed (I was in gang still).
I do apologize for going to the wrong spot, definitely my bad there. However, if there is more to it than that and I did another warp or some other movement, something that perhaps might be a mechanic issue, I would appreciate the chance to help fix it or to better understand what happened. Because other than what I freely admitted above, I donÆt believe any game rules were broken, and definitely none were done intentionally or maliciously. It is my opinion that CCP has done a great job with EVE, there is no other game that can compare to it, and if there is a chance to help improve it, I will gladly spend some of my time to do so.
BTW, as the drama llama is really what this thread is about, feel free to evemail me or convo me in game to help keep this clean for folks to brag, cry, or whatever. Far as I am concerned, the event & the minor issue of the implants are past and over. I am far more interested in improving the game than helping with the forum wars.

I want to say that the honda accord did a really nice job of keeping some of our BS's damped down and range on them to keep them from locking them. Congratz on your win and we wish that the drama that happened had not. We came into the turny to have fun and we did as I hope that your guys did. |

I think most people did have fun. I was still on their vent, and it wasn't until well along/after the fight was mostly over that most of the Honda folks realised what had happened - the reason I did the 2nd typing in local that got me smacked down for half an hour. The fact that they still won in the end they really are rejoicing about, as I think they have a right to do. Probably the only person that didn't have fun was Issler, who, after all, was the target (not the Honda Accord).
Personally, I would love to see a rematch on test. Both of your alliances are fairly even I would guess, being industrial based. The BB that Honda came up with was pure genious, with both shield extenders and plates, to make it a pure damage soak. Doubt it will ever work for them again, but I wouldn't be surprised to see a few alliances come up with similar concepts in future events.
The jams you guys landed were downright wicked - I had to relock 3 times as I only had one single ECCM installed. Issler indicated that she never even got a single shot off.
Overall, it was an an event that will be remembered in EVE lore that I think all involved with can be glad to have had fun in being a part thereof.
Oh, and a couple of folks were glad to see Pie Eyed is still around. He has tought many folks how to mine over the years, despite his joining of the Caldari Militia.... ;) ________________________

Originally by: Happy Joymaker I wasnÆt able to warp over to the exit in time before the GMÆs podded me (I missed their initial warning, and when I realized what was up, my pod was going down û lets hope CCP follows up and replaced the 300 odd mil in implants as they did say that there was no podding in the tournament, even if they are the ones that do it).
You did not simply warp once and then get podded - you were moved to a beacon, warped to a gate, and asked again to not move and you did not comply. You were podded in accordance with tournament rules. Therefore, your implants will not be reimbursed.
So it's okay for a GM to bring up private petition answers out in the open with being asked or given permission??
Double-standard? CCP GM's? Never would have thought that.. |

You lost the match despite having a spy shoot the FC, cry about some implants, then make snide comments about a GM.

How could I not have had a blast! Seeing the latest epic BRUCE fail and my team do so well. It hardly gets better! Especially once I learned that the Happy stunt made no difference in my experience. I was primary and my doom was destined to happen. Kill mail says it all. Frater had my number. Props to them!
And seeing the late whining about the GM call and a sad attempt to rewrite the early contributions of Tada O to BRUCE just makes my smile even bigger!
Great time, thanks Dead Bruce Shop for making our first attempt at the Eve PvP tournament something that will stand out in the history of Eve!
This is one CEO that is all smiles!

Originally by: Norwood Franskly Personally I think it was a pretty neat way of getting revenge, was a GHSC-esque assassination, infiltrate your team and then kill your fc.
this was hardly an GHSC-esque assassination, cause if it was they would have infiltrated the both teams fully and THA alliance. and on the moment the tourney began, Cleaned it out kiled sizzler in one volley and ceased fire as soon as she was in pod.
But a BB of DOOM.... EPIC |

Did I miss something? There's really no information except to say the implants won't be reimbursed and why. Which was the subject of a question posted by Happy in this thread.
I couldn't see anything else that might have been private in a petition, or that I couldn't have gathered from this thread.

If it was petitioned then Claw shouldn't have said anything, at least not specific to this case.
That going by CCP's standard procedure which is subject to change at their whim so w/e.
I've been warped by ccp guys on the test server before, its actually kind of easy to miss their warnings. Personally I'd have had local chat minimised and have always had blink off.
Not that it matters, Claw has spoken there will be no more done about it. |

Good idea, horrible execution, poor show in the aftermath.
For some strange reason I feel tempted to try to assassinate Issler (who ever that is) my self just to prove that it easily can be done better. |

Well it is a two way street if it was petitioned then happy should not have brought it up in this thread either. But Claw being a DEV and the guy running the turney it doesn't matter anyway.. What he says goes. |

Less than 9000 out of 43,000 damage? Didn't lay the final blow? And you call that an assassination? Now, if Happy Joymaker was a spy for AdHuc, *and* AdHuc had won the match because of it, I might be applauding Happy Joymaker. But Honda won in spite of HJ, so I can just laugh at a failed assassination attempt, and swift justice from CCP Claw.

Heh. This was an amusing read since I last left it. Here's the bottom line:
1- We were there to kill Issler. No one else. We don't give two hoots about BEEP except as a means to cause Issler pain. We had mild misgivings about shooting the others, so we settled for goal one. Believe that or not as you like; don't much give a damn. We've got long-standing disagreements with her and her (lack) of corporation, as well as the staggering stupidity and ridicule she's brought to the CSM (a point which seems almost universally agreed upon, judging by some posts in other threads.)
2- We can't help that Frater Ad couldn't kill a team down two battleships in 30 seconds. We didn't account for their impressive degree of suck; can't really be blamed for that. Most of us actually found it funny that they were that bad and still were allowed in the tourney. We didn't kill her team in a "later, more important round" because we knew that a team like hers would never SEE a later, more important round.
3- Happy's implants are his own issue. I figured he'd be podded too, just by different people.
4- Don't blame us for not getting top damage; we didn't figure Issler would be dumb enough to accept ANY FOOM... nevermind an old-vetted one, so we didn't send a high SP player. As I recall Happy got jammed by Frater at some point - but that could be complete rubbish, too.
5- We find the publicity as amusing as the next person; heck, we've never had so many recruits and spies sitting in our applicant channel as we do now. Relevance! Heh.
6- Near as I can tell, some people hate it, some people love it, some people are unimpressed, and some people just don't care. That strikes me as a pretty normal day in EVE.
/me makes a note to come back in two weeks with another box of popcorn.
Good stuff. |
