Nin, has your 2012/2013 been so uneventful that your most invigorating memory was teaming up with an enemy militia to blob a roaming gang on a training op over a year ago? I think you need to spend less time circling beacons my friend! Perhaps if you pursued a more relevant EVE career path someone would care about you enough to hire us in your direction and we could give you a proper first impression ^^
And for the record, there's no such thing as too many carriers for a Hans Jagerblitzen kill mail 
RE BL: On the PVP side of things, everything was clicking and we were doing well. But there was a lot of friction with NA. coming from a few BL members. I'd sum it up as cultural differences, which one BL corp elected to express by shooting their own alliance during fleets. It's no worries though, much love for Elo and the rest of BL (especially MVN and VAF); it just wasn't for us. "Alekseyev Karrde: mercenary of my heart."-á -Arydanika, Voices from the Void

'Podding their client for fun. ' 'Not our fault ' - I know. However I would have thought blowing up your client would be bad for business. Oh wait you want paying for that?
'Trying extort money for a really **** poor job. ' 'I look forward to the coming weeks. See you on the battlefield. Or maybe not. Up to you guys.' - So not trying to extort money from a dissatistisfied client.
'Not our fault that Goblin has an alt in Lemmings after he said he was cutting ties with them. ' So why would I be seeing you if the Lemmings have nothing to do with Gevlon?
1. They knew about it because as has been mentioned a zillion times, Goblin cursed me out, told me he wouldn't be paying, then blocked me when I tried to talk to him about it. So I told the EVE Podpack channel and #tweetfleet. It's not a conspiracy it's called social media and Goblin being a jackass.
2. We are punishing a scammer at this point.
3. Gevlon founded lemmings but made a big blog post, as well as some private mails to me, about how you guys were going off doing your own thing. That was like 2 months ago. We're not psychic, if he doesn't tell us things have changed how are we supposed to know?
4. I maintain Lemmings is mad at the wrong person. Goblin hired us when you couldn't get the job done fast enough on the Goon POCO thing, Goblin left you out in the cold during his Burn Jita contract talks with me not finding you relevant enough to mention. I understand that Lemmings pride is a bit hurt but you're making fools of yourselves by raging at us for it. Talk to your boss, not me.

Our main BJ contract explicity had us attacking Goons during suicide ganks. I just did a quick courtesy check for a repeat client to make sure going after the Goons more aggressively (as Goblin wanted) wouldn't bother him. It didn't, he seemed pretty enthused about it actually.
Goblin's initial offer for an ECM jamming contract was declined (I'd never have accepted such a pointless contract because I understand suicide ganking mechanics from having fought CFC in Jita twice before). The counter offer of 2m/catalyst, 5m Brutix, 10m Talos, and 20% the value of the pods was accepted. This is clearly seen in the mails. Unless you're implying Goblin wanted us to jam pods to death?

Full quote:
Quote:I'll accept a bounty contract on Goon suicide gankers but Scorps and BB's are a bit pedestrian for us. Much prefer to do things with EAF and be more mobile. But we do things a little differently as you know ;p
As in ways that work. Attempting to jam a target after it's already fired in a .9 is pointless, especially Tornados/Talos/Brutix. Using AF/Interceptor teams to hit them at their safe spots you lower their ability to get setup and their max alpha.
You're also fast enough to follow them around allowing you to trigger kill rights before they shoot further reducing their damage and ability to coordinate fire.
And finally using inties you have a much higher chance of chasing and catching their pods after the gank which adds massively to the cost of the gank (Catalysts are 2m and given out for free, pods cost 20, 30, even 40m to replace and come out of the pilots wallet)
Goons started suicide ganking our frigate fleets to keep us off them. They left Gevlon's Orca untouched throughout the whole event. Lemmings didnt try to ECM anything. So out of those three methods, the one which caused Goons to change their strategy and spend resources to stop, the one which they ignored, and the one you're talking about which even your own alliance didnt use, which one do you think works best?
Again, 1900 dead CFC. 25B worth. Pew. "Alekseyev Karrde: mercenary of my heart." -Arydanika, Voices from the Void

I had to switch to an alt to ecm as some mercs were shooting lemmings so I WAS ecming quite well thank you. Also were there three contracts because on your podcast at about the 38th minute you state the you had a contract to shoot the guys shooting goons. So doesn't that make three contracts? 1.The 'main' one shooting goons. 2.Gevlons contract 3.and the one 'shooting the guys' shooting goonswarm contract (38 min on the podcast).
1 and 3 is the same contract. I know this is very difficult to follow, but we got hired BY THE SAME PERSON to shoot ganking CFCers
AND
wait for it
AND shoot people war decing GSF. At the same time. Like one after the other after the other. All weekend.
It's a difficult concept but some players like to watch ships blow up and the more the better. We delivered on that contract and went over the top on punishing/harassing GSF fleets for Goblin. It's ironic he thinks Goonswarm hired us, a notoriously scammy alliance, yet Goblin is behaving like a Goon recruitment officer.

Inventing a third contract we had which involved protecting Goonswarm or B. Overlooking the fact Goblin withheld important information from us about his involvement with other groups
It's important to remember when hiring Noir. or any other merc that they're often only as familiar with your cause, coalition, or plans as you make them. It's considered unreasonable to expect them to "just know" where you have alts, who your blues are, whether those blues know to work with you or if they will shoot you, and if you've got other operations or deals going on.
The only alternative to that understanding is having the mercs get the APIs for all of your accounts and put an alt into your corp before taking your contract. While I'm sure PL's spy network might be good enough for that to be no big deal, it would be prohibitive for little guys like us.

I'm throwing virtual poo at both of you. -We didn't reveal the contract till Goblin went off the handle declaring he would not pay and blocking (literally in game, not allowed to contact him at all) any attempt to discuss the issue.

I would agree with you 1000% Reppy if either of those things were the case. I've been in the biz over 8 years, I know what not to do.

We were not hired by Goons and we did not check with Goons. We were hired by a private individual, who has allowed me to say that much and discuss some of his contract details because he thinks Goblin is being a douchebag.
The contract with that individual specified we were to shoot Goons after they went GCC for ganks. He was checked with more or less like this: "Someone's offering isk for every Goon killed during Burn Jita. You mind if we attack them before/after ganks too so we can try get some of that?"

Good faith efforts to contact Goblin even after that he has either ignored or openly mocked on his blog.
If anything Noir. has gone above and beyond the call to be patient with Goblin and try to bring him to the table to talk it out. At this point, though, I'm growing increasingly convinced he was negotiating out of bad faith to begin with. "Alekseyev Karrde: mercenary of my heart." -Arydanika, Voices from the Void

Fascinating, how you try to avoid the issue, at least Fayral admitted that it could have been handled better and +1 to him for that. Actually its irrelevant, the question is all about your relationship with certain entities in the game, when a client has a potential contract against the Goons, especially a contract touching upon Goons and their status/propaganda, they have to question the level of trust that they can expect from your alliance in carrying out the contract, especially if they are generally despised by the in-crowd. As the Obsidian Front is not CFC aligned and not one of the illuminati, or a CSM / ex-CSM, there was no chance of you being untrustworthy in any shape or form.

I think the issue is that clients expect their mercs to try to do their job as best as they can. So let me ask you something.
Do you think you could have killed/jammed goon flashies in Jita better with or without also taking the time to shoot targets that you were hired by them to shoot?
Do you think you could have killed goon enemies better with or without also trying to jam/kill out the goon flashies in Jita?
Our contract required us to fight CFC and the people shooting them at the same time. Goblin's contract was a per kill reward for each CFC ganking ship and pod we could nab.
As you say, clients expect us to do the best we can. We DID kill Goons better with taking the time to shoot the handful of Lemmings that wandered into JIta after their alliance stood down because fighting GSF in tidi was "too hard." We did better vs Goons this year than last year. Our best just happened to be awesome :)
I appreciate your trolling Seraph but I think you can stop trying to float the "Gevlon hired Noir. to jam Goons after they suicide ganked" and "Noir. hired by Goons to protect them" canards.

So many personal feelings don't have place in such a discussion be it Goblin calling Alek a goon pet (did he?) or other childish name calling. IMHO one cannot do 2 jobs as well as they can do 1. If i'm respectfully asking a question I don't see why people need to get personal.  You have lost all expectation of respect or civility in your dealings with Noir. a long time ago. Your question is nonsensical considering he took the contract in the first place. The question was answered way before you even asked it. If you're asking for him to give you a wrap up of the contract then I'd imagine tuning into DoW will take care of that. I know you're a syndicated journalist for the award winning website EN24 but simply asking a question does not entitle you to an answer. Hey Pepizaur, I read all your comments. I get your point of view I really do, and I understand you dont like gevlon. Heres a question for you though, if you were mercing and I agreed to pay you oh say lets say 10 billion isk? and for that kill I want a "carebear menace" super killed, I'll give you the co-ord and drop the cyno on it. Or maybe its a c3 wormhole, I need you to clear it. Or maybe its the plan custom offices around rens. I want rens and all the systems within 5 jumps cleaned out, I pay war decced fees plus handsome bounty and I want you to kill those pocos. I want enemy pocos dead for a 6 week period, war decs are on me. Now assume you accept that contract. would you AT THE SAME TIME accept a contract from my enemies to repeatly pod me. to kill me and my implants. Do you think thats ok? This is a genuine question, Im not trying to be sarcastic or troll you or alex (though he keeps ignoring my question). Alex took gevlons contract then went and killed him repeatly. Alex is on those gevlon kill mails. Is this normal for mercs? do you pod yr clients if its unrelated or casually related to your contracts? What is pandemic legions policy on this? If I floated 200 bill by grath in return for a null sec system does that only get me ratting rats but snigwaffe fleets are still cool to come and welp my carrier? Oh and alex, Im deadly serious here, can I ask you for a contract in the future? feel free to charge me extra for the clause that says noir wont pod me. I need my +1 charisma implant of it will take forever for me to get mining connections V  :puts on the flame suit:
If you dont mind my saying it's a very academic point because Goblin did not hand us 10 billion ISK. He set out criteria within which we would earn an amount of ISK based on how much of those criteria we filled. We filled 2b ISK worth and he didn't pay that either ;p
It also assumes we know all Gevlon's alts. We didn't and probably still don't. We certainly didn't know he would be trying to PVP against Goons himself in the event. Probably something he should have mentioned so his mercs could blue the characters he would be using, have him on comms, etc.
It assumes Noir. pilots were told our employer. They never are unless that person has disclosed themselves or allowed me to disclose them. Or Door #3 which is they have broken contract with us and need to be exposed.
If you are worried about hiring Noir. and then us podding your secret alt, it is easily solved by informing us who we need to blue for your contract. Simple as that.
Also you might want to refrain from looking to Sniggwaffe for moral guidance...
Re Seraph: If you'd like to have a further discussion about the virtues of exclusively taking one contract at a time, I think Marmite Collective, Darwin's Lemmings, The Devil's Warriors, and nearly every empire merc in the Merc Contracts channel would love to talk to you about it.

Hey Alex thanks for taking the time to reply, I appreciate that. You made a number of points, If I may I want to reply to them in full. "you dont mind my saying it's a very academic point because Goblin did not hand us 10 billion ISK" well he made a contract with you. If I make a contract with you can I ask for good faith as part of the terms?
You make the point about "secret alts" and I agree as far as that goes. His main is gevlon goblin though, his blog is the greedy goblin and his main high sec war toon is botmuncher goblin, which is the one you repeatly pwned. He has blogged extensivley about it and Im surprised you profess ignorance that it was him you were killing. Espec as he told you on the friday about it. That said Im not interested in how you would treat my undisclosed kitty567 alt: You havent said if its safe as YOUR employer to join your fleet as my main char Tarojan, in my little ferox. If my enemies throw x iskies your way are you going to kill and pod me while taking a wormhole for me "cos filling both contracts"? You havent confirmed or denied that this is in actual fact, your corp policy.
Gobs laid out extremely basic, limited terms (kill x, get y, repeat) and we did our very best to kill X. Employers should expect good faith without asking, but so should mercs. Obviously it's in dispute but from our POV Goblin did not extend that good faith to us because he lied about his connection to DL, hired us for one thing in hopes we'd still do the thing we declined then getting mad at us when we did the thing we agreed to, expecting us to disclose his identity to our pilots then accusing us of disclosing it to his targets (we did neither), and cut off all communication before I could even convo him.
Good rule of thumb: When you hire a merc, assume they don't read your blog. The **** are we supposed to know if he's Botslayer, Botmuncher, or Buttmuncher in the middle of a 2k pop system with people going GCC all over the place. It's not rocket science, just be up front about what you're doing. If you intentionally keep your mercs in the dark you only have yourself to blame.
I'm sorry if that wasn't clear by now, but no, that is not our corp policy nor has it ever been in 8 years of doing business. Once you pay Noir. you are "locked in" for the contract duration and we will not be bought out. "Alekseyev Karrde: mercenary of my heart." -Arydanika, Voices from the Void

So you felt it was in your client's interest to ask if another contract was OK, but you didn't think to ask in Goblin's case? For the nth time no details were leaked.

Are you trolling? List of blues in highsec? You can't shoot anyone in highsec unless you go out of your way to get into war. Which you did. You try to make this look like a nullsec "standings were not set, neuts shown up, mistakes were made" issue. No. You purposefully allied with Goonswarm (the target of the contract) to shoot anyone who is shooting Goons. Also, your job was to jam Goons which you didn't even attempted. The only way to stay in business after this mess would have been a public apology and a new CEO. Instead you tried to finish the scam and demanded payment for nothing under threats. The topic title should be changed to "Noir 2008-2014". You are done. Considering you forced us to set Darwins Lemmings for a previous contract in highsec your outrage at the concept is more than a little amusing.
Also amusing is the continued demonstration of ignorance about suicide gank mechanics, that EVE mails dont disappear after you close them, what scamming is, what a contract is, Noir. history, etc. There's also the troubling matter of you not taking ownership of words you admit you wrote or your own blog where you admit to owing 2b in fees for services rendered.
I apologize to all future Goblin enemies for breaking the poor guy's mind.
And if you think we're "done.." Well, I'm afraid I've got some bad news. During the "Goblin Didn't Want These POCOs Anyway" repo operation we already took another contract. That employer has posted on this thread, a very satisfied customer like the +250 before him. We have recruits coming into our forums and I am looking at easily half a dozen contract request mails in my inbox since last night.
I point out the above not to convince Goblin, who is proud of his ignorance, lack of social capacity, and the fact that he's never changed his mind not matter what. Let's not beat around the Bush, some of those are very presidential qualities.
But for the rest of us, sit back and enjoy. Win, lose, really lose, public embarrassment, or choke on a pretzel Goblin and his highsec pets (i cant believe there is such a thing but here we are) will continue to entertain. "Alekseyev Karrde: mercenary of my heart." -Arydanika, Voices from the Void

Yes Joseph as you can see from the mails posted from the very beginning Goblin said he would not be paying what he owed and blocking us as we tried to talk to him. This went on till Tues where we made the call this was no misunderstanding he was just breaking contract. Welcome to like a week ago...
If Gobs had a legit concern or there was a simple misunderstanding he'd have talked to me about it. If he wasnt comfortable doing that for whaetever reason he would have tried to involve the Merc Contracts Channel mods to arbitrate (which I tried to do on our end, obviously they didnt have much success bringing Goblin to the table either).

I like how all of Gevlon's excuses now boil down to "Noir. had a secret contract from Goons to accept any contract I gave them so I could scam them"
What it REALLY boils down to is you never want to admit when you're wrong. Even at the very basic idea of your ECM fleet; it just doesn't work. Anyone with knowledge of suicide gank mechanics knows it doesnt work. That's why I said we'd prefer to do it our own way and agreed to your pay per kill counter offer.
But you don't want to accept that anyone knows something you don't, so instead of going "yeah I didn't think about the fact they'd already be done shooting when the jams activate" you stand by your ignorance of how the game works and blame everyone else for undermining your genius plan.
Obviously any mistakes you made negotiating the contract or in handling simple conversation with the mercs in your employ are inconsequential, because secretly Goons hired us to be hired by you so you could... not pay us anything after we do the work? I'm not clear on my end of the plan, sorry.
If your ECM fleet was such a great concept, why didn't Darwin's Lemmings which you were still secretly directly running and flying with use it? Can you point to any example in your EVE or personal life when you took responsibility for your own actions and outcomes? By crap posting against Seraph are you determined to systematically alienate everyone remotely sympathetic to you? Do you understand you can't scam someone when they haven't given you any money or services? "Alekseyev Karrde: mercenary of my heart." -Arydanika, Voices from the Void

We've been transparent throughout the entire process, defending against Goblin's accusations with raw info including his own words. His own blogging admits that he owes us money but he refuses to pay it because of an increasingly elaborate set of excuses ranging from "they were protecting Goons" to "Alek is Erotica 1." We have tried contacting him multiple times to negotiate with him including involving the Merc Contract channel mods to arbitrate and inviting Gevlon on Declarations of War (as well as Legacy of a Capsuleer or EVE Radio to be released shortly) all of which he has ignored or declined.
From our POV it's over. Nothing will change Goblin's mind, we've already inflicted an appropriate penalty for his actions, and he doesn't seem to care about repairing his reputation. I doubt anyone will kill our titan any time soon and if they did, I strongly doubt it will be because of Goblin's "bounty" since the whole incident spawned out of him refusing to pay bounties in the first place. He and his readers/pets can continue to bleat but the story is pretty much played out and I expect anyone who cares about it has made up their mind one way or the other how to interpret events.
As we've said, if you think and behave like Goblin did/does we are as uninterested in having you as a client as you are hiring us. "Alekseyev Karrde: mercenary of my heart." -Arydanika, Voices from the Void

I'm inclined to say Goblin is just the nasty exception. He's the only repeat customer we've had scam like that. I don't think there's any policy change we could implement that would have changed the outcome there, aside from not accepting any ppk stuff at all. Maybe that will have to be the case going forward, but for now I'm thinking we just be much more selective in who we do business with and move on.
I want to answer your hypothetical, but first should point out the obvious that it bears little relation to the situation with Goblin.
The short answer is we would not take that contract against you. We don't accept concurrent contracts from current targets nor contracts against our current employer, nor do contracts for so little isk ;p Goblin would like to believe otherwise of course but that's unchanged from when we've opened the doors.

But anyway yes Noir. has mothballed Noir. Mercenary Group, our effectively one-corp-and-a-training-corp alliance in favor of a project we've been working on for quite a while now.
HERE:
Quote:The rumors of a super alliance are true!
Noir. and Suddenly Spaceships have teamed up to form a merc powerhouse for all your small gang needs.
This partnership has been in the works since the run up to the CSM9 elections.
Buhhdust Princess and I were on a mercenary panel where we talked through a lot of issues facing our community. Turns out we had a lot in common and have since been working behind the scenes on ways to adapt EVE mercs to the changing needs of the game.
We're all pretty stoked at this development and tbh it's long overdue. "Suddenly Noir." will combine the best of Suddenly Spaceships' hard hitting hot drop tactics with Noir.'s small gang + cloaky skirmishing supported by upgraded communication tools. Our combined member bases will allow for solid fleets in the EU, US, AND Pacific TZ's.
We will continue both units' traditions of delivering exceptional results on contracts anywhere in the game with the highest standards of professionalism in the industry.
For contracts, contact myself or Buhhdust Princess.
Want the skinny on all the build up and prep to this? Catch the next episode of Declarations of War to be released sometime this weekend.
For those interested in Noir. Academy the program is still running, we've just housed it within Of Sound Mind to provide a more learning-friendly training environment. "Alekseyev Karrde: mercenary of my heart." -Arydanika, Voices from the Void

NOIR. still carries the tradition. You get what you pay for. Unlike the high sec hub camping wannabes of today who use high sec to protect their back from anything other than war targets, and let's face it, their war targets aren't those that will shoot back. NOIR. will expose themselves to get the job done.
I've always been a fan of NOIR. Not so much publicly, but privately. Fanboi, whatever shittler respose you may have. Aleks is a quality dude and positive force for Eve. Thanks for that Harri.
If I still had a heart, it would be fluttering.

Well guys it's true, it's true.
Later this week I will be stepping down as CEO of Noir.
I'm retiring so I can pass the torch onto a new generation of merc leadership, namely my XO Deletor.
Noir. will continue to bring the same level of trustworthy service and brutal efficiency you've come to expect over the years.
Declarations of War will still continue as a podcast, as I begin a new stage of EVE life: enjoying my retirement with old friends, fun fleet concepts, and a constant feed of killmails.
