well.. this seems like an interesting contract.
so.. FIX want the outpost in G-7 and MC are contracted to knock out any static defenses in the system. It makes sense that with MC + FIX combined, IAC don't really stand a chance....
One has to wonder though, what happens when MC's contract runs out...
Very interesting indeed.

So what EXACTLY is the point of this contract?
can someone lay it out?
Someone has hired MC to shoot IAC, for some reason.
FIX, for some reason, has decided to help.
Those reasons, of course, aren't public. And most people in MC probably don't know either, simply because contract details are generally kept secret.
... that was hardly worth posting DS

Can someone that is not FIX nor MC explain this guy that all he is doing is appearing ridicolous?
... against my better judgement, caution would warn me to clear stear of this subject, I am gonna try and explain to some of the FIX guys why USN CVN72 is still so worked up. He is an ex-FIX officer, so IMO it deserves some explanation...
USN CVN72 left FIX such a long time ago that any of the reasons for his departure are now irrelevant for the most part anyhow.
I cannot place the exact date of USN CVN72's departure, but I do remember what may be the issue that started his love/hate relationship with FIX.
USN CVN72 as I remember was a good pilot, stand-up guy always ready for a scrap and with quite a good grasp of command. He was also in the FIX chain of command with the rank of Captain (not sure if he made low-level admiral at one point).
Anyway suffice to say that USN enjoyed FIX and FIX benefitted from his presence, he lead FAT gangs during the Coaltion war (Species, Mass etc..)
I believe USN's trouble with FIX started on account of a run-in with Cougar One, who was then FIX's first admiral. Basically Cougar One and USN would have ended beating eachothers head into a pulp in RL, such was the animosity.
I remember sitting down and talking to USN, and trying to calm things down etc.. but ultimatley as a JCoS at that time, I had no real alternative but to stand behind our First Admiral. I think things just got worse and worse with Cougar One until USN left FIX...probably with a very bad taste in his mouth.
Sometimes when the entity you pour your heart and soul into turns her back on you (for whatever reason)... you can get a little miffed.
Anyways I hope that sheds some light on USN and why he may still be ****ed off.
Though, as Tequllapaper says.... he isnt doing himself any favours. 
(.. think I'm gonna throw him a convo at some point, just for old times sake..)

My memory is cloudy becasue I haven't been in FIX along time myself but I can rememebr the exact week he left FIX because he was rather unpleasantly ganked in a2- by FIX forces , and I'll say deservedly so from what he was saying in local to Wraith and about FIX .
Looking at the employment records, USN did leave FIX in 2004 to come back in 2005 for a brief period only to leave again..
You are right I do remember something about TS passwords and FZN and USN being involved.. he did protest his innocence vigorously.. its quite possible FZN were lying. I had already left by that time...
So its quite possible that he left the first time on account of Cougar and the second time on account of the TS episode.. both times, it could be argued that he was not intrinsically at fault... which might make somebody pretty angry.
Anyways.. back on topic.. HF all. \o

No that is as it should be.. an attacker SHOULD take HEAVY losses when assaulting a Heavily Reinforced Defensive Position.. the current implementation means a large enough fleet (10+) can take any POS without ANY Risk at all.. and that is ludicrous.
IAC now complaining about POS being underpowered is laughable and ludicrous. For the last 6 months or more every entity in EVE from LV to D2 has been complaining about how impossible to kill L Death Star POS's are. Heck in the TCF <> D2 conflict, the running joke was that TCF's kb leader was a L minmatar POS.
Now you guys are whining that they are too weak??
Have you been living on the moon?
Yes you are outumbered by FIX and MC, both in capitals and in support.. but to start blaming POS is just making your alliance look like bunch of noobs with no business in 0.0 at all... a bit like RISE.

So you honestly think it's completely ok for a large pos to go into reinforced in 15 minutes?
If you use enough frigates you can melt a BS in under a minute.
If you use enough fighters you can melt a DN in a few minutes.
If you bring enough DN's you can kill a L POS in under 15 min.
If you bring enough ships to a system you can crash a node.
Whats your point?

I dont know where this idea of McFix outnumbering IAC + Snigg + CVA has come from, throughout most the day they've been hiding at pos with 2:1 odds in their favour, i'm not *****ing about being outnumbered but we certainly dont outnumber them
.. gee then they don't even have that excuse... perhaps IAC leadership should tell their lower ranking members to stay off the forums.. cause they are making the whole alliance look a bit silly...

hmm this is getting more and more interesting by the day....
IAC seem to have a lot more friends than perhaps was expected.
Will this be MC's toughest contract yet?
/emote watches with baited breath...
