And I lost a lot of Myrmidons before Gamertrav taught me how to minimize my chances of death whilst staying in the fight as long as possible.

Compared to some of what others have done in game, this one is nothing..but it was rather embarasing. I blew up the BC of an ally's alt before I realized it was his alt. It wasn't until after the fact I learned it was a friend. Weak, I know...but I have luckily been rather derp free in my Eve career..so far 
If I had a nickel for every time someone said women don't play eve, I'd have a bag of nickels to whack the next person who said it..

Lies. Everyone derps in EVE. The learning curve is so harsh, it practically FORCES you to derp.

I didn't say I have never derped..just rather derp free...as any derp I may have done did not cost myself or anyone else....luckily. So I have no story to tell about a tragic derp that cost xxx their xxx....just to clarify

I have played this game since 2005. I've been living in null sec for a few years ... and I've NEVER lit a cyno. Not one time. I don't even know how much fuel to have or what fuel to use.
I do not like the men on this spaceship. They are uncouth and fail to appreciate my better qualities. I have something of value to contribute to this mission if only they would realize it.

In no particular order :
1. Lost a Command Ship to concord attacking a player who had left the corp I was deccing, but who still had terrible standings. Saw red and scrammed it, died hard seconds later. 600mil loss, scramming a 2mil destroyer.
2. As a newbro I ran my first lvl4 in a medium artillery Abaddon :P (duel tanked too).
3. I can fly a freighter, but have NEVER had to use one since I just like to hurt people :(
4. I cross trained to Amarr based purely on the aesthetic value of 1 battleship.
5. I can fit and use a mining laser.. The shame.

In no particular order:
1. I have lost unfit ships in nullsec as I was moving them from the station I bought them in to the station where my modules were.
2. I tried to speed tank losec gate guns in 'ceptors a few times before I realized that that wasn't really a thing.
3. I used to run level 4 missions in a 4/4 rail/cruise Rokh.
4. I brought sniper Eagles to old-school battleship sniper fights before it was cool. Or effective.
5. I have been suicide-ganked while autopiloting along major pipes.
6. I nearly lost out on an Arazu kill because I assumed that my drones would, you know, attack the Arazu I was engaging and not the losec gate guns that were firing on me.
7. I shot the sheriff.
8. I have looted roughly half a billion ISK worth of stuff in the past month from offline POS arrays.
9. I hull tank, and I like it.
10. I've made most of my long-term friends in EvE by shooting at them or being shot at by them.

Bailed on an alliance op with a really crappy excuse. Actual reason for bailing was because spouse was feeling frisky. Engaged in marital relations. Forgot that I had teamspeak on at the time, set to voice activation, with laptop sitting on stand next to bed.
Came back to eve later and got quite a few tips and suggestions on coital relations from corpmates.
Sweet Baby Jesus, I laughed so hard when I read that!

Once I ran up against low-sec and needed a warp core stab. I was soooooooooo happy to find one in system I didn't notice the price was almost a billion ISK. 
Even worse, I bought TWO. 
To this day I triple check the price of anything I buy lol. |

I actually have one for this.
It covers both.
The good news is that I talked some drunken long term player out of a lot of money. Let's say I am good at that, but this time it caught me by surprise, because after I came back from work I suddenly had a billion ISK bounty on my head for ***** and giggles.
This was under the old bounty system.

I had a ********* relationship with somebody's ***, or so I was told. I was too drunk to remember anything but the virtual rash I had for weeks. (No one should be so digitally crotch-oriented for so long.) I'm sure it was nothing.
Treason never prospers. What is the reason?
Why, if it prospers, none dare call it "treason."

I lost a 250 mil isk BS on the first day I could fly BSs ever, to a can flipping Thorax. Granted this was back in the 0m bug where you guns stopped tracking at 0 m.
I once podded myself by blowing a huge fart.

I've trashed a 4bil isk Naglfar, a 6bil isk Ark, and a fully researched orginal T2 Warden bpo which I won through the lottery.
As CEO I rigged the elections in my corp for the "co-ceo" because the idea of the "other guy" winning made my eyes bleed, and the other guy was such a flake he'd never show up anyways, and I used an alt in corp to prop the guy up and get him hot to run for Co-Ceo.

One time I left my hammerhead I's in space.
Don't think I've ever done anything beyond that aside from maybe accidentally buying 8000 Meta1 cap batteries for 700,000isk a pop instead of 7000isk but that doesn't really count since I blot the memory from my consciousness and rock back and forth in the fetal position shivering & crying when I do happen to recall it. |

Just remembered one of my worst. So we are lowsec dudes right? Often we have killrights on us, so we are supposed to know how they work. OK, so this corpmate got himself ganked somewhere in hisec hauling stuff. I ask him to open up the KR so we can go hunt down the ganker in question. We find him and I start killing him...
Had I bothered to actually activate the KR I would still have that Hurricane. Instead I got CONCORDed and a KR was placed on me for illegal agression. I looked like a right fool and our marks off course laughed in local at my incompetence.

I remember being in jita, as a girl contacted me.
I am sure she kept an eye at me for a while already,
because it was really obvious what she was about ...
... and that she knew what I was about as well.
We didn't even talk for ten minutes and I already started moving to her home place,
a rather highly populated gallente station.
After arrival, it didn't take too long until we established a person connection.
She wanted me to stay... I wanted to stay at her side ...
... and the only requirement for me to stay in her quarters ...
... was to always run around naked.......

Did my PI runs in lowsec, all was fine until I see that I completely forgot to hit F1 this day... you know, the one linked with the Covert cloak I prayed the Eve's gods for not having been ganked like a fool 
The most recent one, already talked about in C&P; expedition in lowsec with my T3 and logi, began the exp, seen combat probes in DScan, gtfo as it should be, once warped off I warped back to the exp gate because hey they lost my location or something  finally lost my T2 logi into a failfight Since I adapted my T3 fit for solo op and I setup a gtfo option BEFORE doing any PVe. This is Eve. |
