Dumbest thing:
Fell for a goons recruitment scam. oh god.
(In my defence, I was 95% sure I'd be blown up and never see my ISK again. I had a lot of ISK at the time, so I just wanted to see what would happen. I'm approximately 1.6bil less rich now.)
Ballsiest thing:
Dunno if this is ballsy or dumb, but I decided it was ballsy.
As was my wont up until a few months ago, I was sitting on the Hek undock (yes, reading this thread a lot of bad **** goes down in Hek) swearing at the locals until someone grabbed my can. I saw a damnation flashing red and consulted various sources as to whether my proteus could kill this damnation. They said yes, due to small DPS giving me enough time to redock against my gigantic buffer, so I engaged. The damnation pilot started with smacktalk that became less and less frequent as his armor dropped to 20%, then 10%, then 5%, while his frigate-sized missiles only got mine to 35%. The reason for his silence suddenly became apparent to me as three repair battleships dropped out of nowhere and started repping the bastard. I was forced to dock up. I was ten minutes in to my aggro expiring, then I thought "Maybe I could kill one of those RR battleships before I have to redock."
So, I undocked and commenced firing on one repair geddon. His compatriot was nowhere to be seen, and the damnation pilot had also made himself scarce. I was having fun, and had him at 50% armor when he docked. For ten seconds, I sat there doing nothing. Then I saw the vagabond speeding towards me at 4km/s, 50km away from me. I realised **** was going down, so I did what every station brawler does and desperately tried to get on top of the station to prevent being bumped away.
As I climbed the sides of the station, more flashy red things appeared on my overview. Two more. A vindicator and a bhaalgorn. In my haste, I realised my drones were still out from fighting the geddon, and they automatically engaged the vindi pilot, who had until recently been flying a damnation. I quickly got the wee flying bastards to get back in my drone bay (ungrateful *******) and set about determinedly spamming "fly upwards" to prevent myself from being bumped off the safety of the undock. Then, the two battleships opened fire and, safe to say, I was shitting my pants. at 5% armor with a 3% structure bleed, I finally managed to dock up, having shaken off the relentless bumping of the vagabond.
All I have to say is "thank **** it wasn't a machariel".
Weirdest thing:
Me and some mates were setting up a wormhole POS. We had an orca full of POS parts, and all the rest of us had jumped inside the wormhole and were awaiting the orca's arrival. As it warped to the hole, one idiot in a raven suddenly shouted "****, I forgot torps!" and jumped out of the hole. It collapsed.We had one scanner frigate left, who promptly scanned us an exit, deep in lowsec space. We decided, for some ******* stupid reason, to get the orca pilot to fly through low to this new wormhole.Three jumps into the journey, he was locked, webbed, scrammed and generally ****** from moving by pirates. Long story short, they accepted his ransom and let him go. He arrived at the wormhole safely.
I didn't know you got pirates who still honoured ransoms these days, but there you go. |
