Having so many BOS members on my friends list was quiet amusing. They where logging on and off so quick that I couldn't really see which of them where coming and going.

As for the system count, it spiked 170 according to my screen, not that it did any good. We attempted to engage 4 separate times and where unable to do so 3 times.

Let's just put this in bullet form to save on space and hopefully clear up some of the factless statements coming from some in this thread:

1) I was in a gang doing local defense(not soloing) as one might expect any alliance member in any alliance that wishes to at least try and defend their space at any hour of the day.

2) I was unable to launch any drones at all. This was before and after local ballooned in count.

3) I never saw a single hostile fighter or drone on my display during the entire encounter.

4) I noted extremely poor tactics on the part of the hostile dictor force. They were orbitting about at 15km in a very nonchalant fashion. Had I been able to deploy drones, 1/2 to 3/4th of them would have been dead within 90 seconds to 2 minutes. TBH, BE have a much better command of their dictor tactics than what I saw from the hostiles last night.

5) I've survived three to four desynchs before. Never had I ever been without the ability to deploy drones and defend myself. Something else was going on with the node\TQ last night.

6) What saved snigg et al was their willingness to log out in combat and log back in to save their objective from failing. I never log in combat. I guess that's one difference between attackers and myself. Perhaps CCP can send some signals whether premeditated logging in and out from combat is acceptable or not. I think it shows weak character but I'm old and very old fashioned in that way :)
