Geminate 05-06 as I remember it. FE alliance perspective
post FoE, post FE corp.
FE alliance swipes geminate.
Mid 05 (if my memory serves me), after some alliance got bored of claiming Geminate (CI I believe but I don't remember tbh) they vacated it leaving geminate virtually abandon of all live. I then decided that all FE alliance had to do to own geminate was for me to say "I claim geminate" in the map thread. So I did. And so with out sending so much as one ship there we owned it.
The SNU days.
Then about 2-3 month later UAxDeath (of RA at the time) said he wanted a new alliance called SNU to hold southern geminate. We made a compromise. They were allowed to live in southern geminate but as residents since Krullz [CDI] proclaimed that "FE (alliance) were the rightful owners of Germinate (germinate = geminate in krullz speak) and will never give it up!" After living down in geminate for about 4 months RA's meatshields started to get a little mouthy talking about how they own southern geminate. We warned them that threating our sovereignty would result in war. They quickly retracted their statements. At this time in tribute we had a war against ATUK so SNU was real low on our list of priorities. So when The End [B-MC] came on our TS and said "hey. How good of friends are you with SNU? You guys dont care if we kill them do you?" I replied "sn-who? on yeah, them. Whatever. We are supposed to be napped with them er somthing but if you think they need to go, then I guess they need to go". So BioMass Cartel with a few of their friends (couldn't be more than 10-20 pilots) promptly dismantled their 600man alliance in a few weeks. Despite popular believe, no I didn't hire biomass cartel as my uber top sekret mercs to do our dirty work. Krullz and I simply liked them more than SNU. /shrugs
Khatred's curse and the arrival of 4s
Long before the many, many follies of the BWF station there was another outpost seeded in Geminate. Unfortunately a seed was all it would ever be. The notoriously eccentric billionaire Khatred and seemingly on a whim decided he wanted his own station in geminate to sell his vast array of t2 ships and mods. I absolutely loved the idea and I'm still bumbed it didn't work out. Khtred sold his goods very cheap and I thought the idea of pilots having to brave travel through pirate infested geminate to aquire one of these discount ships added a neat new element to eve. Unfortunately 4s corp who recently came to the area from fountain did not see it that way. Soon after deployment of the egg 4s corp sent their fleet down and destroyed it. A historical event considering it was the first time an outpost was destroyed before completion. Khatred then hired MC to get his revenge on 4s corp. Unfortunately for him 4s just played the docking game for a couple months in FDZ. After realizing he was wasting his time and isk in geminate Khatred wondered off into the sunset never to be seen again. I belive that before he left he placed the curse on whom ever holds the geminate stations that so many people talk about.
The blue Pill
At fanfest MLM ceo Zzazzt had a nice chat with Freewheelin from NAGA. They began talking about the future of t2 production and sales. FreeWheelin had mentioned the idea of a 0.0 t2 megastore. We all agreed that letting NAGA grab a system in our space for this wouldn't hurt us in anyway and perhaps a long term relationship would be beneficial. The Big Blue was formed and their dream became a reality in BWF with the constrution of The Blue Pill.
Soon after FE alliance was disbanded by Krullz and I. So that's all I know.
FE alliance were the owners of Geminate for almost a full year. I never once ordered a single ship to defend Geminate in that time. I had never even set foot in the region untill 2007. Ive still never been south or east of BWF.

... Khatred then hired MC to get his revenge on 4s corp. Unfortunately for him 4s just played the docking game for a couple months in FDZ. ...
It was the other way around. Khatred hired MC to clean Geminate for 4S presence. MC failed to do that and had an argument with khatred where they pulled out of the contract. Lacuna tried to deploy the egg alone and 4s/hirr killed it as a revenge for him hiring MC to remove 4s. The outpost would have been finished 6th of november 2005.
Even though 4s and and FE where hostiles they both agreed to let BB have IPS and build an outpost there. Maybe Khatred could have done the same if he had tried to talk instead of hiring MC.
If I remember correctly FE gave up their claim on geminate early march 2006 in an agreement with Morsus Mihi. (correct me if I am wrong persh). 4s and MM then moved further north and left the region early april 2006. you'll never jump alone

and no. BoB is seeing alot of the north if not all of it. the difference is they hold slightly more space than you did... and have far more allies.
and unfortunately for you nothing they said confirms your continuing spewage. Perhaps they should add astral wolves to the wiki, alliance of noobie corps that rented space in geminate from cdc corps and never did much of anything except get ganked and spanked. Your pvp is limited to the forums.

GENIOUS PVPING! WHY DIDNT I THINK OF SUCH A SOUND MOVE? further your friends in smash are absolutly obsurd... well the ones i ran across anyway... the flew huggins that had 2 wcs on them... (at least) Also interesting to note is the several fleet battles that are noticably missing from the smash killboards. There where several battles where we absolutly mopped the floor with you guys and they where oddly missing from the killboards.
further for a group of noobs who couldnt pvp for the life of us... we sure held our own against the brunt of RK SMASH and your pets for quite a while. simple fact is Astral Wolves never prided itself on pvp yet when we got our stuff together we didnt do too badly.
its a great thing you dont have the r0adkill ticker anymore cos your mindless trolling is weak n00b.
lol
get over yourselves, I baited myself trying to buy time for an rk gang to get there, unfortunately they were about 1 jump to far away and my tank gave out first. A-w put out some of the worst pvp i've ever seen, you never held your own, when the pressure came you whimpered and collapsed.
You of all people complaining about mindless trolling is classic, you put out more drivel on these forums than all the posting alt corps combined. I wonder if Hydra realizes how poorly their inclusion of you reflects on their alliance, they should deal with you before you do to their reputation what R0ot did to Xelas.

SNU deserve a little bit more props than persh is giving. Them and the alliance they descended from (forget it's name) lived in a collection of starbases deep in lower-Eastern Geminate for a long time far from stations. They survived a fair amount of bashing around from MC, BMC, and 4S, but they weren't your regular POS-huggers, they always came out for a fight in my experience. I remember congratulating them when they took down our first BS, and then went on to down a few more. They were weak fighters, no doubt about it, but BMC certainly did not dismantle them. Their morale was strong throughout, especially when they switched from F-E allegiance to Morsus Mihi side and firmly believed they were with the good guys.
Point is they took the attitude that they were gonna learn, even if they lost a lot. At one point they even had enough balls to attack our well armed medium-starbase with a battleship only fleet. By the time Morsus Mihi attacked Vale and seiged the LS-JEP station, SNU were in decent shape and provdided much needed backup for us. Probably their two best corps, Foundation and Legion Du Lys, went on to join Roadkill and TCF respectively. _

I'm told internal disagreements about the future of the alliance killed SNU in the end, but they certainly did come under a lot of pressure from a resurgent CI once Morsus Mihi left Gem. _

Edited by: Kal''Kalagan on 02/05/2007 14:35:29 Edited by: Kal''Kalagan on 02/05/2007 14:34:16 There was actually qute a bit of F-E alliance activity in Geminate and more precisely in LS-JEP. While F-E were embrolied in the war with ATUK who were fighting out of H-PA in Venal, 4S and their Morsus Mihi alliance made an attempt on that system.
MM were not that good back then, dedicated I'll give them that but no match for the F-E veterans who were using all the lessons we were learning from ATUK (learning the hard way I might add)on Morsus Mihi. F-E forces lost LS-JEP station due to commitments in Tribute and if I remember correctly most of F-E spent a couple of weeks living in a POS there playing station ping pong. Ultimately though it was ATUK's invasion of Tribute that forced F-E to retreat back to D7-ZAC. Krullz did a deal with MM allowing then to own the station for a period of time before giving back the station to F-E.
M-M occupied LS-JEP for a period of time and when F-E disbanded CDI and one or two other ex F-E corps resided there under the VOID banner with the remainder of VOID living in JZV in the Vale. Eventually CDI collapsed (I think Krullz went nuts tbh and hope he is ok out there as I quite liked him). Cruel Intentions then for a short while took control but after that I don't know as by this time I had moved on to -V- and was happily surrounding myself with RaGoon corpses.

As far as I remember regarding the LVA proposed Outposts (was supposed to have been multiple outposts) Geminate was to have been a mercenary haven with Khatred providing the funding for the removal of the current occupants prior to its creation.
Khatred decided to move several haulers through Geminate with a load of components for the outposts and got ****y with MC when his haulers - that he hadnt told them he was moving - got destroyed, MC backed out of teh contract.
Sometime later Celtic Anarchy decided to move into FDZ, it was nice, a thriving market, loads of people to kill, then it all went quiet, cant remember time line on when this was, but it was immediately before we left for Syndicate.

Lots of great information guys and girls. Thank you for continueing to add it. Feel free to add some of this to the wiki entry that is linked in my original post.
Remember to give us the name of a corp or alliance with the tag in parenthesis first. Then you can use the tag from there on out. That way we know who you are talking about.
I believe everyone who has contributed so far has tried to be as accurate as possible. I've altered the format a bit to try to take in as much information as possible in the easiest fashion.
When did Morsus Mihi come to Geminate and when did they leave?

Originally by: zincol We also helped remove Void from geminate
Actually VOID helped remove VOID from geminate. SAS had nothing to do with it... It started to crumble when ERA pulled out of Trubute and the treats of VOID being next made people want to put stuff in NPC stations instead of fighting.... Thats when we decided to leave.
So some more missing items... Not sure about timeframes though.
F-E Fell because of plans to NAP with D2 (Or was it still G then?) and Friends and go after BoB failed. Also they never really got the capital ship program going and were in no position to counter dreads and carriers. I was not involved in the politics then so I can only give my POV as a grunt. A few people didn't want to NAP D2 and refused to stop firing on them. They were booted from F-E and other corps left shortly thereafter. F-E then collapsed and mostly the industrial part of F-E became VOID lead by Krimson Blade.
VOID controlled Vale and part of Geminate for maybe 3 months?? We left shortly before the collapse of VOID.
If I remember correctly 4s decided to take LS-JEP and fight F-E when Krullz said some comment about a serbian mailorder bride or something like that, which understandability upset some 4s members. With F-E fighting G in Tribute it was just SOD and maybe one or two other corps in the area to fight so there wasn't much of one. 4s agreed to give back the station after a two week NAP period to accomplish some goals they had at the time. They then left the Vale/geminate area.
Feel free to correct any mistakes... Like I said.. I was just a grunt and not even an officer of SOD at the time. Was a month old char when we went to 0.0 so I know some of it could be incorrect.

no im pretty sure there was no RK gang you delusional wierdo... and that was the single worst bit of pvp ive ever seen in my life. you never shot back once in the whole thing.
ontop of all this... i dont know if oyu realise this but even an RK guy has agreed with me and said the north didnt get stuck into you... you completely disregarded this and if anyone is makeing is alliance look bad it is you... especialy posting from a noob alt. hows it the the fantastic graalum isnt in an alliance?
to us whimpering and dieing... are you kidding me... there was a period of 2 months where you guys completely killed mining and ratting in q-t and the surrounding areas and we all fought! we where prepared to continue fighting too! but other things happend and we where asked to blue you with astral wolves.
you show a complete and total lack of understanding which i expect from anyone not capable of any real thinking.
all you can do is so confidently speek of our ineptness when it is in fact you who made the single most horific pvp choice ive seen in my life! back up what you've said with real evidance or go home noob.

I added a link at the bottom of the Geminate region page to the history of Geminate from the perspective of individual pilots. Pleae come over and make an entry. :)
Or you can get to it here.
Here is mine:
Entering 0.0/Geminate Entry #1 Character: Da'iel Zehn Alliance: None Corporation: Pinnacle Sun Industries Date: December 2005-February 2006 Location: BWF-ZZ / IPS Constellation
My first corporation when I started playing Eve was Two Guys Mining. They were descended from the old Curse Alliance that had broken up and had many of its people return to Empire. TGM had no interest in 0.0 or joining another alliance. They even shunned contact with other corporations in the area where they lived. Eve politics were bad from what they told me. I only got into the corporation because I was RL friends with a couple of its members.
I felt like I was missing out on the great mysteries and opportunities in the galaxy being a brand new player. Just before I left TGM, I took a shuttle and flew out to the edge of the galaxy as far east and then as far south as I could go. I had no idea who controlled what or where anyone was. I flew over 100 jumps and only ran into a few people along my way. I didn't have visual on their ships, just people in local. I was surprised and excited about how large the galaxy seemed to be. Knowing what I know now I realize how small the galaxy truly is, and how lucky I was I didn't get blasted into sparkling, space dust.
On my second trip out, I ventured into the Great Wildlands where I got swatted by some gate rats in my shuttle. I flew over to the nearest station, bought a new shuttle, and started heading out of the system. Veritas Immortalis caught me at the gate and quickly ended that venture. Oh the bliss of being a noob. :-)
During my third trip out to explore I ended up going into Geminate a few jumps in my Osprey looking for some good ore to mine. I ran into 4s that informed me I was in a war zone. I don't remember who they were fighting at the time, but I was glad they didn't shoot neutrals when one of them warped into the belt I was in. I got attacked at a gate by someone I don't remember and jumped through. Luckily I had warp stabs on.
My itching wander lust led me to leave TGM and head north to The Forge. After all I was Cadari and wanted to see my homeland. I ended up in a really good, quiet system about 5 jumps away from Geminate and 0.0. There I founded Pinnacle Sun Industries, which had a good run of about 7-8 months.
Some of my noob corp mates and I wanted to mine out in 0.0. I had mined some in low sec back in Heimatar before I moved, and knew how much ISK could be made doing so. A few of my corp mates and I attempted on numerous occasions to mine out in BWF for Crokite. A few times we lost a mate here and there, and other times we successfully filled up our haulers with Crokite and other valuable ores.
I had a deep dislike for Cruel Intentions, S.A.S., and Quam Singularity (along with the rest of FoE) for all the gate camps and all, but at the same time it was a lot of fun running blockades or playing cat and mouse. I came to realize that is all part of the game, and I don't hold any hard feelings against any of them. Though if I am ever in a gang and we pop some of them, I will be very pleased. :-)
In December sometime, Big Blue entered IPS. That was fantastic for the local pilots who like my corp really needed an organized group to help us into 0.0. I will never be able to express how much I appreciated Big Blue and all they did for Geminate. We mined a lot of ore and got to rat big ships for the first time. It was a blast.

Continued from above...
My first fleet operations were with Big Blue. I remember being amazed that they would let me join their camps on the Oij gate. There were many hours spent by PSN pilots on that gate and in the surrounding area helping out TBB. The first fleet commander I flew under was Jirad TiSalver. I personally think Jirad was and still is one of the best FCs in Eve. He has a great TS voice too, and I never felt confused or lost in a TBB gang.
I wanted to formalize PSN's relationship with TBB because my 40+ active members were all doing well, and the majority of us wanted to move out into 0.0. Unfortunately, TBB never did accept our application for membership, and I ended up making the decision to join my corp to Gemini Federation. When the MC went to war with TBB on contract, PSN's hands were tied by our alliance who said we would not interfere in TBB space. I regret not coming to TBB's aid, but we had 7 months of ISK saved up from operations and stock sales to put our POS in GF space at jeopardy.
When TBB withdrew from the area, I considered it a very sad day. PSN ended up splitting because GF got war decced by -V-, LV, and whoever else. I did the best thing I could do for my shattered corp and merged those who wanted to stay in 0.0 into Foundation, in Gemini Federation at the time.
After a while I got tired of 0.0 and the constant assault. Plus Gemini Federation was not that strong and bigger alliances were pushing us around. I returned to the edge of Empire and founded another corp. That one grew to 20+, but I was disatisfied with somethings and closed it down. I was too strong to have fun in empire, but too weak to venture out in 0.0 alone. So I decided to join back up with Foundation that had recently joined Roadkill. That was a good decision.
I would have never thought that I would be in the corp that would own the BWF station or the alliance that would bring stability to Geminate. Its been a great ride.

The story of the almost first outpost in Geminate.
Mercenary Coalition was hired by me to try and clear out the region while I was preparing 5 "dread star" POSes and building the outpost egg. The contract was going ok, during peak hours MC was pretty much controlling Geminate and we were on friendly terms with FE. However especially during the mornings hirr and 4s were an annoyance. Also BYDI were involved (as in hired) and a bit later Celtic Anarchy arrived as well. The initial master plan was basicaly that I will create the logistics for the region (outposts and market) and mercenaries will have a place to hang out between contracts. After about 3 weeks of contract, I decided to cancel it. I was starting to be aware what I got involved in (logistics wise) and I had the feeling that going that route will make the game look like a job. I've also came to the conclusion (probably a wrong one as Seleene disagreed) that hirr and 4s will stay docked in FDZ4-A for as long as it takes thus making them unremovable. However since I have already deployed the POSes and the egg was built, I went along and tried to deploy it. I claimed sovereignity and next day industrials moved along with the neccesary stuff. After moving about half of the materials, 4s were starting to have quite a presence on the route to the outpost and I decided to wait for the next day. The egg remained undiscovered. Next day started quite well, also had one friend helping with his haulers. By around 9 AM there were only 9 million tritanium left to haul but I was totaly wasted after 48 hours of being awake and 4s made an appearance again. After downtime the rest was hauled and the outpost started to hatch. Only around 20 hours to go. And then came a 4s scout, on the 3rd day. Several hours later a small hirr/4s fleet started to pound it and that was the end of it.
