Stupidest/Ballsiest: though the rest of my fleet was 12 jumps away, i solo tackled a carrier. after being popped i kept bumping the carrier in my pod and was being really annoying till they podded me.
Wierdest: My friend Breia Starbeam decided to autopilot from our home system in null to jita, something like 40+ jumps i think, in a shuttle. Somehow he made it there and then autopiloted the whole way back. |

When I was very new to the game I decided I wanted to see the EvE gate in the new Eden system. So I did. In a Rifter. I then found out about all the cans people had anchored there, some as memorials but most just like 'xxxx was here!!!'.
Wanting to do the same thing I started looking for a place to buy a small secure container. Erhm.....what?!? Nearest is 11 jumps out? Then and there I decided it would make me serious Isk if I would be the supplier of those containers in the nearest station, which happened to be in the Angur system. 'Ok, lets do this. Zip to Amarr, buy a Sigil, load it with all the small secure containers it can hold and zip back to Angur.'.....
In an unfitted Sigil, without having a clue about low-sec, and without getting shot at once.
It then took 3 whole months to sell 21 containers for a net profit of 4200 Isk....... Here I used to have a sig of our old Camper in space. Now it is disregarded as being the wrong format. Looking out the window I see one thing: Nothing wrong with the format of our Camper! Silly CCP......

It's hard to pick just 1 thing...
Taking an Apoc fitted with 1 ML and the rest large smart bombs 36 jumps through hostile 0.0 with no bookmarks before warp to 0km when there was only warp to 15km... and lived.
Taking a badger mark II through 40+ hostile 0.0 systems with a cloak on it to unanchor and retrieve a tower the alliance I was in had left behind... and lived.
Chasing a lone hostile through 0.0 for about 5 jumps in my Rifter and finding the other 300... then the station. |

Joined a new corp, moved down to their area and had a look around.
Went into a 0.4, and saw a ship many km away, so wasn't worried, and I sat there as he proceded to melt me from 150+km, I'd always flown ravens so had never heard of sniping ships.
I sat there stunned and didn't warp off, or even slow boat it back to the gate. Needless to say, I learned about snipers, and maybe it would be a good idea to move away when you're getting shot at.

Stupidest: I (drunk) once popped & podded my own alt while gate camping in AAS-BR. The alt was carting half a bill's worth of stuff to the local station in an Itty. Not a lot dropped.
The box said "Requires Windows-á2000 or better", so I installed Linux. |

-¦ had just enough skills to fly a harbinger and joined a corp. I was running lvl3 missions. Then my corp involved in a war. I thought hisec was safe and kept running lvl3 missions. One day i warped out of a mission pocket at half hull. When i reached the station I saw a red flashing player in my overview, i was just writing in the corp chat "What does a red flashing name in the overwiev represents when i noticed he was targetting me. I was in a big panic. I disconnected the internet cable and quit the game.
When i came back 5 minutes later i found out I had been killed and podded. I deleted that character and started this one. :) |

Not sure which you'd class this as, probably more stupid than ballsy with a touch of weird:
In an old corp of mine we got bored of chasing down our wartargets, so went into low sec for a change to see what we could find. When one pilot in the corp I shall only call Dax gets into a fight with a pirate at a belt... we go in to assist... more pirates show up and ends up in a fleet battle of which we were out numbered... the only person in our corp to get out was this Dax despite the pirates desperatly trying to catch and kill him. |

Probably worst ever though was a 3b tengu fit that was just pure tank for 10/10 plexes. Not in a null alliance so had no support or intell. Was scanning and tanking with the tengu and bringing an sb in for dps.
Actually worked ok for a whilekept having to replace the sb though and i eventually sobered up long enough to realise that having a ship like that in 0.0 was gonna end in tears.
I even had t1 rocket launchers on it cause i decided to refit it to take the frigs out and there wasn't much else for sale in the area.
So, 3b, t1 rocket tengu in null thats gotta be a contender, no?

Hmm. Don't know if this is ballsy, or stupid, or both...
While part of a draaaaake fleet roaming back in the old days, we were chased by Darkside. Into a PL fleet. I got seperated as the fleet I was in disintegrated - so I am sitting at this planet, the only guy not in Darkside on grid. Fortunately, I was a bit off, and had ECM drones - they didn't get me. I warp to the gate - and PL fleet is sitting on gate, with bubbles. I break my fingers hitting MWD and aligning to different gate, just manage to get out... and land on gate next to Darkside Fleet. I jump. They jump. I burn like hell back to the gate while my drake is melting into armor. I jump... and PL Fleet is on the gate. I align to another out gate, and manage to warp off to bookmark off gate. I think I'm good. Inties begin warping around me. I warp to another gate, jump, and keep running - and cross jump Darkside again.
The drake survived. I had to replace my chair. |

I was in a gang with a friend from a different corporation when somebody warped in and ganked her.
I went chasing after the rogue with all guns blazing, followed him into hyperspace to a nearby station, relocked and was promptly wasted by the Concorde turrets. Doh!
The swine mopped up my T2 wreckage and moved on. |

I have, and continue to do a lot of dumb things, that makes the game exciting. However My worst I ever did, without knowing what would happen is:
I had been mining in a Hulk for just a few days, and was a carebear at the time, not understanding agression. Had a guy in a rifter can flip me, so I figured I would let my drones chew on him while I waited for concord to show up....
They never came. That was an expensive mistake. |

back in 2004 in lowsec I was jumping some stuff a few jumps in my Badger II, I got attacked by a Battleship from about 200km afar (he only hit with his criticals I mean "wrecking shots") took him 3-4 shots to kill me: Stupidest because: Instead of just warping away I tried to fly the 15km to gate, most of his shots missed anyway but he got me 1000m from jumping range.
Lost quite a bit of money that day because I didn't think of warping away ;) |

I spent a month building 10,000 condors, 14 hours moving them to a POS with a rorqual and ejecting them into space, then blew up them with a manticore. Dotlan registered it as 20,000 kills due to the wrecks. I still think this is the largest number of kills in any one system in Eve history. This was done in DBRN a few months ago. |

Sucks that your computer was seriously flawed. Don't blame CQ, your GPU wasn't getting enough cooling. Honestly, I'm amazed how people can put blame on CCP for this. I stress test every comp I build for 12+ hours to make sure it's stable, and CQ comes nowhere close to stressing your gpu as a stress test does.
As for stupid things I've done... lets see. I logged out to avoid a 50+ roaming frgate fleet with my 3 accounts in nullesc, 2 domis and a drake. But then I logged on 10 minutes later because I was drunk and was only 1 jump from my destination. Got bubbled, lost it all and got podded on all 3 accounts.... ya that was awesome.
I should've just passed out and finished my trip in the moring, but instead I lost 500+ million isk.

I frankly run CQ and Eve in High with only a G-card and it has a built on fan Mine hasnt died yet and im on eve alot. And stress testing my computer has proved very good results. =) yey for new Gen-Tech-Durability.
My Worst situation was recruiting my RL friend to play eve and run his corp when he goes awol for 5 months after spend 400$ for PLEX's after running his corp to better standings. (he wanted a POS and was making me do all the work even though he was capable of doing it too). So I dropped from his corp and am waiting for him to give up paying for the game if he wont play. (he too complains about CQ -but keeps sayin his computer is better built then mine ) This is a Signature, It makes people Stare. (Man I gotta Make one , or Find one to steal) |

Long, long time ago, when I was a pilot in ASCN and we fought against BoB 1.0 I decided an AFK-travel to highsec in a shuttle. So I renamed my winged little coffin to "I don't care", set the route through the war-zone and let the autopilot move me. After a working day when I arrived at home I logged in, ready to buy a new clone, and it was a huge astonishment to see my shuttle intact and my poor clone alive in the hisec system, my destination. Made it through bubbles, gatecamps. :) Still I have that shuttle with the same name in the same system. |

Well the wiedest thing I have ever done was. When I was mining ore in high sec I was playing with my D-scan and saw an orca unmaned. I thought it was wierd so I move my miners to my Pos and got in a cloaked ship and started hitting the other belts. Low and behold I fine a miner mining in a hulk next to an unmaned orca. This guy fly out here in the orca launches his hulk gets out of orca in to hulk and starts to mine. Funnest dam thing I have ever seen. So I fly back to my POS after bookmarking the positon of orca leave my ship wait 20 sec then warp to the orca. I get there an able to get into orca and fly away with it. took it one jump dock it. And had to tell everyone. But wait it get better the next day the dumass is doing it again and again I steal the orca for him LOL greats two days in EVE so far. |
