Loss mails on both sides didn't register. The kb numbers are suspect, whether you claim it went one way or the other.
Some folks had little lag, others were crippled by it regardless of dialing settings down to Doom1 mode. In the end, we ping ponged around the system and each time Goons/ZAF warped off the field.
In the end, it was just under 1000 in system. iHub was put into its second r/f cycle and towers on both sides were saved.
AFAIK, there was only one carrier lost last night, an unfortunate AAA carrier warped to a Goonie pos and was bbq'd. Both sides kept their cap ships off the field as there were tons of titans waiting in the wings. Carriers assigned fighters and rep'd friendlies was about it.
The station r/f timer is up in a few hours. ZAF and Goons have CTA's set around 0100 EvE to attempt to rescue the station.
Hopefully, the devs who were cruising around got some good data to address the silliness that is large fleet warfare (defined as more than 20 on 20 ships).

LOL Farham.
Lots of losses on both sides (check)
Good guys held the field with each battle (check)
Strategic objective met (check)
Its been reported by folks on both sides that lots of losses never generated mails. I know because my Claw mail never appeared-folks on the other side said the same. Even assuming (had all mails registered) that Goons killed more ships, we held the field and completed the r/f of the iHub.
There, that should be clear enough for you to understand.

Both sides are right in the fact the attacker must dominate the defender for days on end in order to take a station system. It was obviously intended to give the defender an advantage to marshal their forces and put the enemy to the test.
49- in a sense is no different than a pre-dominion fight; time zone wars gone wild! We wisely decided not to LEROY into a fleet several times larger than our own and Goons are rightfully happy that they got the peeps together to save the station. We'll see in the coming days what is to become of the iHub and SBUs.
In the big picture Goons made the call to let PL go down in a heap rather than try to marshal enough forces to defend both 49- and PL. You'd think the largest alliance in the game could easily field enough forces to do the job in both places (especially with your buddies from ZAF and the few blues you have left) but perhaps your leadership knew that would just turn out badly.

Don't forget Razor, they are floating around here too.
Yea I lol'd when the Phreeze, a Razor FC warped into the middle of us in the midst of shooting the iHub Saturday night. Razor might want to explore the depraved depths of whatever the Goons have going on in that station and come south on a vacation.
Update to the Update: While I was stuck at work, our US TZ layabouts and Euro m8's replaced the SBUs that were cruelly blown up by Goons last night after the station came out of r/f. Goonies repped the station last night. Apparantly we did have some decent numbers last night but many were stuck on the road back from an iHub shoot fest with AAA in SV5 and WD- against the Ammarian Opressors aka CVA/LF.
After the SBUs were onlined today, the station was again put into r/f with a timer for Wednesday night in North American Prime Time.
