Quote:
YES! Oh, I do so love answering this question!
Did you notice the quote by Patton about teamwork? That's what BDCI and Sharks are all about. We get paid to destroy the enemy. We are always on the clock and don't have time to worry about things like if something was "fair" or any of the other words that are not normally associated with war. I will always warp in with five to one odds if possible because that means we're getting a kill. It means we're doing our job for our client. It means we're probably not going to lose any ships, which means we're making maximum profit from the contract.
Will we do a fair fight? Will we fight outnumbered? Absolutely. We will and have on more than one occasion, but when given a choice, I will "gank" for wo weeks solid. What you or others call ganking, I call efficiency. What some call cowardice, I call "smart tactics". Just check out Viceroy's quote in my siggy below. It pretty much says it all.
ahh , but you missunderstand me miss . i am all up for ganking , it is how you put it "efficient"
however , as someone else said once .. "a ganking is NEVER enough for a movie" . plainly speaking , it gets a bit boring to watch gank-movies. after the initial OH ,and AHH and WOW it all boils down to "oh another poor bastard got ganked and lost his ship .. yawn"
i liked the EV movie for its background story , TS recordings and the story progression . this movie is somewhat "slim" on content . -------------------------

No, I understood you perfectly, well. I just wanted to use the opportunity to lay out our philosophy on the subject.
As for the vid, yes I can see how you might feel this one is a bit slim. However, not every war lends itself to be an epic. EV is one of the oldest corps in EVE, they fought back a lot more and the war itself lasted longer. There were also the political elements from the NCA in play, etc... Was just much easier to construct a story around all of those events than the six nights we went after TheMM.
I'm glad you liked the EV vids. They are closer to what I'd like all of my vids to be like, which is why I went ahead with a story intro sequence in this vid as well. You haven't seen the last of the TS-usage, I promise. Our next contract is likely to generate quite a bit of footage and TS recordings.
As for story, I have already started plans on something rather monumental that will probably be out right after Shiva hits.
Thanks for taking the time to comment, though. Posts like yours are a big help in knowing what people like and don't like. -

Well the BDCI/Sharks contract taught me a lesson. WCS SAVE LIVES. I believe I had 3 on when I was ganked. But come on Seleen you know I had said that you couldn't warp scarm me 2j from my destination when you only fieloded 3 ships though I will admit this you laid a great trap and I had absolutely no chance in hades of getting out. Good fight,GREAT VID. Thanks for makin me a movie star and I have a business propsition for you.
Please stop being a third rate flamer,I am tired of reactivating my account just to kick your ass. |

Originally by: Seleene No, Olyyy, no alts in XETIC. Oh, and you still owe me a Rifter from several months ago when Miso told me, "Olyyy is a friendly." and then you came out of cloak and ganked my ass with a pair of Cruise Missiles.
Ok first you were heading toward Xetic space (well i realized it could have been CA space, but in fact you wouldn't have made the difference when facing ships=) and I hadn't got miso on convo so basicly, I saw a dozen of ships at a stargate, put my war hat and went out as fast as I could while shooting the first thing i saw
Btw did miso finaly quit Eve ? I saw account had been deleted
As for Xetic carebear alt, sometimes I wonder if I'm not my own carebear alt
Galaga (Galaxian - XIF corp) And yes, Olyyy is on our KOS list so she enjoys stirring the "flames" ( 2004.05.25 ) |

Quote: A simple check of the BDCI and FRICK kill lists will reflect that there were more than a few of your PvPers present and attempting to put up a fight, Cabadrin.
Oh I know, but I'm just trying to make myself feel better about being pwned so badly in empire At least we can boast the corp survived 5 empire wars at one time! -----------------------------------------------
