Edited by: Raiden Kaine on 25/12/2009 17:43:12 TL;DR - Drake pilot gets blown up after a mid-flight switch from a Rifter to a Brutix with help from friends.
Over the last couple of weeks RVB has had a dip in community participation which has resulted in less fights and bored PVPers. All of this is of course due to the holidays. Some of us have tried to find fights elsewhere with a few low sec and nullsec runs that were not that eventful to say the least.
Xenofarion found some fun a few systems away, and it was attached to the end of his Rifter's warp scrambler in high-sec, a Drake. At the time I was station spinning (5000 revolutions makes you ISK!) and watching com channels. Xenofarion was calling for a pilot that can fly a Bruitx, so he can make a switch to it in mid-flight, re-tackle the Drake pilot and blast away. Very ballsy. I undocked my Punisher so I can get out there fast and see if I can do anything.
I arrive in the 0.5 system, get to the belt and burned towards the Rifter and Drake which were slow-boating at 167 m/s and 400 km off the belt they originated in. The Drake was aligned to another stargate. Xenofarion tried getting a ransom off the guy to no avail.

I warp off to go grab a BC a few systems out and I come back shortly in a Golden Chicken (Prophecy). After fitting the BC I notice we have an addition to the fleet. This new pilot (Who wishes not to be named :D) grabs the Brutix for Xenofarion, fits it to his specifications, and brings it back to the Rifter/Drake tackle alignment.
Moo Unit, another Blue Republic pilot, comes in with a Falcon. The plan is all set.
1. Xenofarion gives a countdown from 5. 2. On 2, Moo Unit rams in to bump the Drake pilot in the Falcon. 3. On 0, Raiden Kaine (Me) rams in to give an issurance bump to the Drake Pilot in the Prophecy. 4. Brutix pilot ejects, Xenofarion Ejects, Xenofarion jumps in the Brutix. 5. Xenofarion re-tackles the Drake pilot and starts to pew pew! or get a ransom. 6. ??? 7. Profit!

A few moments later after kindly asking for a 25 million ransom with the Drake pilot's decline.

BOOM!

All in all this took 90 minutes to complete (we were bored remember!).
PROOF OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN! A) Killboard - http://bluerep.eve-kill.net/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=5260545 B) Chatlogs - http://pastebin.com/f263a34c3 C) What moar do you want!!!
As an ending result of this ordeal, the Drake pilot emo-quits EVE and gives all his stuff to CVA
Happy Holidays C&P!
To all the lawless dirtbag scoundrels of EVE,
Eat, drink, and be merry!

I've never pirated myself, but it's people like you who keep the population of EvE healthy with strong willed players, and weed off the weak.
Thumbs up

Hahaha!
I especially love how he was all ****y and confident that Xeno couldn't kill him, and how sure he was that he would survive the engagement. On top of that, he blames the game's being "broken" on his failure to understand how it works. Classic.

Edited by: Xenofarion on 26/12/2009 13:04:24 Edited by: Xenofarion on 26/12/2009 12:57:44 Yo, look ma, I'm famous!
There also was his alt in an Enyo and at first I was a bit worried if he perhaps would take over the Brutix before me, but I quickly created a new overview for battlecruisers only. I excluded killrights and fleet from it, so that I basically had an overview tab for empty/neutral battlecruisers only and it worked pretty well
To be honest - I don't know if I would've honoured the very last ransom I made as he was in 20% structure.. He really went on my nerves at the end Sadly I didn't catch the pod, would've been worth the sec hit
But imo the best part was the convo I had with him about 30 minutes after the kill. I saw him coming back online:
Xenofarion > hey, welcome back :D Xenofarion > sisohiv is your alt i guess? emo > Just disbanding corp. Not staying long Xenofarion > lol :D Xenofarion > bitter much? :) emo > Been playing 5 years. Its all old. Xenofarion > Why? Xenofarion > (Can I have your stuff by the way?) emo > No. emo > CVA will get my stuff emo > good try though Xenofarion > ok, worth a try. I thought now, that we know each other.. emo > For another 24 hrs anyway emo > Looks like I need to wait for a stasis. Oh well, anyway. Enjoy whatever it is you do. Time to go MMO shopping. emo > 07
"Been playing 5 years" - perhaps he actually meant "Been mining 5 years"? c/d?
ninjaedit: love the screenshots, mate - especially number 6 and 7. Good Job!
edit¦: after re-reading the local log, I realize that he really had 4 EVE-O Accounts wtf.. I thought he meant me and my three corpmates at first. -- those who can, do those who can't, complain |

I like those people claiming "I played for X years" and still emo quit over XYZ loss.. bull****. If they played this game they'd know that losing stuff is part of it.
Tbh we need more suicide ganking in highsec so younger players stop feeling so darn safe, gives a poor initial impression of EVE. - I'd tell you why but then I'll have to kill you. And to kill you I'd have to log in. And to log in I'd have to stop browsing these forums. Both you and me knows that'll never happen. |
