So, I decided to plug in a set of +4 imps. Before I do, I need to unplug the +3s. So I do that, and then it suddenly dawns on me......I've only got cybernetics III....I need IV to plug in the +4s! LOL. What a doofus!
So what's the stupidest thing you've done? C'mon.....make me feel better

Edited by: VeNT on 09/03/2007 17:27:58 also you could have just installed a jump clone in another station and put the +4s in that and then you'ed have a backup set rather than losing the +3s totaly.
I bubbled my own faction fitted sabre when a hostile blob jumped in
then aggressed them

I've never done anything that stupid as I'm Great, but I can reassure you that many other people have. -
If you go into your options menu, there's a difficulty slider. Put that all the way over to the easiest setting and you'll be fine. |

Been there, done that. Not with a Hulk though, and I didn't lose nearly as much as you (about 1/10 actually). I was putting a sell order on some Gyrostab II's, and pressed enter one zero too early. 66 of them sold for 160k each 
Fi T'Zeh is the leader so far, though, ouch.

Before I was fully enlightened about things related to Gunnery:
Gyrostabs on a Moa. And thought it was completely fine, until I actually LOOKED at the description of a gyrostab. I'm quite glad I didn't actually get killed in that configuration, because my enemies would have had a hell of a laugh.

Anything you need to complete a mission and give to your agent, you'll have left it back in deadspace somewhere. However anything you need to take on a mission, it will be safely tucked away back at base, right next to your agent's desk.
The closer you are to your mission bonus running out, the more chance you'll have to go through a few linked deadspaces via accel gates miles apart to get what you need.
You'll then get your pants stuck on the prongs of the acceleration gate, and spend ages untangling yourself.
You'll still be in your industrial that you've picked the loot up in, that has to make the 90km to the second acceleration gate at 90m/s.
Then of course there's a big roid in your path, so your ships computer that has a brain the size of a planet ... spends 5 minutes just bouncing into the roid. While you're grabbing a beer from the fridge to pass that 5 minutes.
Then 4 weedy 9,000 ISK Angel pirate frigates pop up and procede to fry your ship. You could usually shield boost but you're picking your nose, having a wee and surfing the web with Eve backgrounded while your ship is slowboating the 90km.
Then you make it back just after the bonus has expired, or you're about 2 seconds from docking when downtime starts. Delete the one least likely to annoy you.
Edit: To the guy at the top who said about keeping +3's in a clone. Good work fella! Had never thought of that. Cheers mate.

I once ejected from my vagabond by mistake in jita with about 50 pilots close enough to eject and steal it from me.
Nobody did though. :) A lucky newbie could have made a nice bunch of iskies if he had...

Before I quite understood how rare Tech II BPO's were , I nearly turned down my research agent's offer of a small ammo BPO, thinking "that's not so great, something better will come along surely?"

Reading the mission notes here http://eveinfo.com/missions/3/ for my first run in a new BS that cost about 500M and 3 weeks of agonizing (testing on lev 3 before using it on lev 4) and not checking the rat type. I think cool! I can pick off those sentry guns without approaching. 100% swarm and pew pew from hell with my 10% explosive resistance. I literally had 9% structure and maybe 0.5 seconds between me and BBQ.
That make you feel better hehe?

I failed a storyline Mission, because I waited too long then misred the time, THEN raced to complete it.
While chewing away at the last Boss, maybe 20 seconds more damage to go, BAM everything disapeared...
No idea how to calculate such a standings los.

I was in some random low sec station and I saw there were only about 30 shuttles so I snatched them up to resell for a profit!
Then I remembered it meant 30 for that partiular price, and there were tousands 1 isk more expensive in the same station.
That and I don't know how to make a sell order

When i was new, i started with belt-ratting (becaus a fanpage-guide suggested so) with a kestrel in 0.6-0.4 and then with a caracal in 0.3, making money with selling the loot from beltrats. I remember every few hours i looted items that were diffrent from others and had names beginning with "true sansha" / "dread gurista" /"dark blood". Unfortunately i didn't see any buy-offers for them on the market (they were only tradable in escrow by then), so i started to reprocess them to minerals and sold the minerals instead.
