Mine was selecting a null system at random after DT, putting a shuttle on AP and going off to the movies. A few hours and over 50 jumps later, came home to find myself deep in null. In my shuttle.
Set AP back where I started - went to bed, got up in the morning, found myself back home - still in my shuttle.

Went solo into red-occupied Syndicate space in a nano and MWD Drake with a cloak (experimental fit  ) and had a few friends in various ships with me.
All the rest of them got popped by a red Cerberus and friends, and I managed to get home in one piece. |

Tried to get an Orca through a section of dodgy 0.0 systems while the server shutdown countdown was on. Figured people would be logging out, and even if they did get me i could survive until the shutdown happened. I was wrong. |

Back in my first couple of days , I went mining in some 0.0 ( after I finally figured out how to leave a system) in a velator. I was mining a big veldspar roid since I thought a bigger roid would be worth more. Then this ship shows up as I'm mining. I was thinking hmm why is that guy shooting me. I got worried when I was down to half armor. I tried to warp away but I was pointed and ended up getting podded. I didn't even know about about warp scrambling and disruption. I was so pissed I ripped out my mouse and threw it at the wall. After calming down and talking to my friend, I finally figured out how to play. Then I found out that it was him that killed me. I'm waiting, waiting patiently for the day when I enact my revenge.
I'm thinking back as I write this, and I can't help but think man what a noob. |

Perhaps my weirdest escapade started in my second month in EVE and lasted for a month. I'd gotten into an Iteron III and trained a couple of anchoring skills, so I was good to go on moon goo. I practiced mining a cheap metal for a few weeks with a small tower that I'd earned from missioning, and that eventually gave me enough to get a medium.
So I started doing a 3-input complex reaction on the medium tower -- Phenolic Composites, having determined that this was the reaction that produced the highest profit going from raws bought off the market.
But wait, I hear you cry - you can't do a 3-input complex reaction on a medium -- they don't have enough CPU. Well, yes: a Caldari medium has 3750 tf CPU. Here was my setup:
Input: Three coupling arrays at 155 tf each: 465 tf
Complex reactor: 3000 tf
Output: One coupling array at 155 tf
Total: 3620 tf -- 130 to spare!
However, there's a catch, which is what made it weird: each hour the reactor produces 2200 Phenolic Composites, at 0.2 m3 each. That's 440 m3 per hour into the 1500 m3 output coupling array. This means that if you don't clear it every three hours you'll lose product. And that's what I did for a month between my low-sec runs back and forth to Jita to buy raws and sell Phenolics. I didn't run it 23/7, quite -- I shut it down before bedtime each night, then fired it up again in the morning.
I was very glad when I'd finally earned enough for my first large tower at the end of the month! |

Stupidest: Not checking intel.
Woke up, logged on, jumped Nanopest into 75 strong PL gatecamp (note to self, always check intel channels). Jumped camped gate and bravely ran away to search for fresh underwear.
Still can't figure out how I wasn't insta popped. |

Nothing BIG...
Saw an ORCA mining in a belt with 5 Harvester Drones. The ORCA Pilot was afk so I stated bumping the orca to get him of grid so I can pick up the Drones to sell them since they sell for 80mil each.
Got him 260km of the belt before he woke up and realized what is going on. Missed out on alot of isk, Should have fitted a better Bumping ship.
I did manage to get harvester Drones from Retriever. Used a Legion with Medium Lasorz... The Sound those lasorz make is just awesome. Warped into belt targeted the retriever and the closest roid... Shot the roid right next to him. Retriever pilot must have pissed himself since he warped away really fast.
Picked up his Harvester Drones.... Scored many iskies.
I will add that under weirdest....

Weirdest - Self destructing a jump freighter with a full cargo for no apparent reason, I can't remember what possessed me to do that... I wasn't being attacked or anything.
Stupidest - If not the above event with the jump freighter, the stupidest thing I've done would probably going into a Wormhole without a scanner... I got lost in there for a couple of days.
Ballsiest - Probably one of my old sabotage assignments during the days when I did RP; the task was to fly through a gate guarded by a corporation's security division, gain access to their POS, loot it and then casually stroll on by the security again as I leave with the goods. Sadly the job failed as they had a habit of scanning anyone who left the system. |

An unnamed individual podded me.
As in CCP Prism X, not my player character.
Twice.
The same day.
In the same location.
While I was trying to do my new job.
It was my second day here at CCP.
That's more ballsy than anything I've ever done in-game.

Flew a Hulk through like 10 jumps in hostile low security space with no real tank, thinking warp core stabilizers would protect me. Only met one person, he tried chasing me down, but I was too quick for him. This was when Hulks were still over 400 million. I guess I was lucky.  Dunno if you would consider it ballsy, or stupid. I lean toward stupid now that I look back on it.

My low-sec tower was reinforced by some lowlifes. Come timer, I put a cloaky cyno alt 100k off the tower and waited.
Sure enough, in came a dread with rep carrier and about 20 subcaps. Logged in 2 x POS gunners and tried my best to take out some of the subcaps. Repping carrier just kept repping them because locktime on POS guns is pathetic.
All the while I was getting angrier and angrier about why my tower was being hit! So I did something really stupid.
I got sooooo angry, I logged the POS gunners and jumped in my Chimera and cynoed myself in on a guaranteed suicide mission, determined to take someone out.
Warped right on top of the subcaps and started discoing while I put the fighters on the carrier. Total waste but I had a ball when they saw the cyno and thought a fleet was coming in to pop them. The reaction in local was priceless.
I did get kudos in local for being so brave but the +-2b ISK loss hurt after I calmed down and realised how stupid I was. Been hoping they get caps out of low ever since. That's if they want low to be populated anyway.

I once jumped to a random IT system when I was but a fresh young t2 frig pilot and started shooting one of their poses in my SB until someone came to check it out. When they did, it was a carrier.
I engaged.

If this ever happens, ask around. There are many, many groups that love to drop on small groups bashing poses in Lowsec and will happily assist you pro bono at the chance for some cap kills. Ask around a bit and you should get connected with the right people. It helps to have a reputation of being reliable, but even if you just provide intel it'll probably get checked out.
