bitter victory: a victory won at such great cost to the victor that it is tantamount(equivalent to a particular thing in effect, outcome, or value) to a defeat.
lost ? Oo

b) FE didnt hold the "battlefields, everyone in the fight will admit that FE pulled out to regroup after each engagement (apart maybe from the final one which i personally didnt follow anymore due to my ships death).
As you are correcting everyone else (and as this thread hasn't died the quick dead it deserved), I'd like to ask you about the first engagement at h-w gate? We got I think 2 kills before you warped away?
DIE THREAD, DIE
we warped away, thats correct. In the first battle we had 6 enemies on the overview after those targets were killed and bar 2-3 ppl noone could even see any other enemies we warped to regroup. In this battle i think 5 ships were killed since your pilots encountered a similar lag, according to the local chatter happening afterwards.

A Pyrrhic victory (pronounced pirric) is a victory which is won at too great a cost for the victor. The phrase is a reference to King Pyrrhus of Epirus, who defeated the Romans at Heraclea and Asculum in 279 BC, but suffered severe and irreplaceable casualties in the process, going on to eventually lose the Pyrrhic War. After the battle of Asculum, Plutarch relates a report by Dionysius that:
"The armies separated; and, it is said, Pyrrhus replied to one that gave him joy of his victory that one other such would utterly undo him. For he had lost a great part of the forces he brought with him, and almost all his particular friends and principal commanders; there were no others there to make recruits, and he found the confederates in Italy backward. On the other hand, as from a fountain continually flowing out of the city, the Roman camp was quickly and plentifully filled up with fresh men, not at all abating in courage for the loss they sustained, but even from their very anger gaining new force and resolution to go on with the war." The phrase is more often reported as "Another such victory over the Romans and we are undone". While it is most closely associated with a military battle, the term is used by analogy in fields such as business, politics, law or sport to describe any similar struggle which is ruinous for the victor. For example: "The football team gained a pyrrhic victory; they won the game but their star players broke their legs."

Originally by: Dr MOo You ATUK guys make me sick.
F-E post an honest and accurate account of what hapenned, and speak very favourably towards ATUK. F-E say gf etc. and all ATUK can do to return the favour is flame them like hell over what they define as a victory.
For a start get some manners and appreciate some kindness when it comes your way. Congratulations on your kills, but don't **** on your name by being immature on the forums.
Except they didnt post to say gf, they posted to go HAY GUYS LOOK WE BEAT ATUK despite not posting losing 150ships and killing 27 OH WHOOPS WE FORGOT DONT WORRY WE STILL WON!
As someone stated earlier, its called a Phyric victory.
So basicly your saying fe came here to claim victory and not say gf had fun as you were saying in your first statment. Contradiction 4tw!

Edited by: Talthrus on 22/12/2005 23:02:22 The battle was fun... I don't see why this thread needs to turn into a fight to determine who won more than the other. Not only did both sides feel like they won, but everyone had fun in the fight (which was surprisingly smack free!) Sounds like a victory for everyone to me. ----------------------

Its the style that you guys use in your titles and starting posts in threads
Such as ..."defeat surprise atack"....and "Surrendering of Shinra and Mcorp" few days ago by Pherashine.
Now, it ainght the way you would express GF and good fights. Its sarcastic way of expresing some facts....so dont judge us of returning posts in same way ...and then call us smackers and pretending you are here just to have good time in EVE and not Posting crap on forums Wierd, ainght?

Umm, when we lost BS we could¦t dock and grab another one?... wait thats too simple.
thats besides the point, the point is that everyone keeps saying that in the original fight F-E severely outnumbered [5], which, according to this screenshot taken by an ATUK member, is completely inaccurate.
And you guys say we spin things? Your own member disproved your own case that throughout the entire conflict F-E ournumbered you by a huge margin.

What are you saying? That one corp. with 50 in gang out-blobed your whole alliance in your home system?

ATUK just leave it alone... every PvP alliance knows that when you have a 48 person gang in an ALLIANCE's capital system and fight them outnumbered and only get 157 kills in 2 hrs you loose. So what if we only lost 20+ ships we lost!!!! We will try harder some other time.
Hopefully this wont be the end of arcane technologies as we know it.

I would like to Congratulate both F-E and the -5- on a wonderfully derailed smackfest we have put on display here. We have outdone ourselves this time.
<3 you guys.
Merry X-mas to all
