For BoB, it isnt about holding space, it isnt about winning all the time, its all about having fun, theyve been saying this for years!

The reason we hold/held space is to get fights, and oft times we use space to support our infrastructure as resources allow.

---

We dont hold any space and still Dian makes threads on CAOD on how we spanked you

---

Your group used to hold space, or tried to.

Did those threads urinate in your cheerios in da mornin as you read them, and cause you to want to come kill us with a foul taste in your mouth?

I suspect yes.

Mission accomplished.

I know this is some kind of a joke and in reality BoB members can't be so stupid as to believe this new 'we meant to lose' line but I really want to believe they are really delusional nerds that can't get over being good at a video game.

I'm frankly shocked that this whole thing comes as a surprise to anyone.
I've been confessing to it at just about every Eve meet I have attended which involved consuming alcohol, which is to say every Eve meet I have attended.

What was unexpected for me was that we would still be fighting a year later against the wrong people.

The problem really came from overestimating our intended opponents.
I was under the impression that were were going to go full force against ASCN, whilst insulting D2 in to attacking us from the north (by claiming that we choose to attack ASCN because D2 would have been too easy).
ASCN would use its huge wealth and organisation to stall us (and they nearly did at the start), whilst D2 used it's PvP experience to charge towards Delve from the North.
Unfortunately ASCN pretty much fell apart and D2 had apparently been swamped by ship builders rather than pilots.
Shame really.
I guess we expected D2 to have been more like Evoke are now, and things would have worked out very differently.

Anyway, yes, the plan has always been pretty much to provoke an epic Eve vs BoB struggle, as much to generate some content and interest to Eve as to actually get lots of pew-pew (although that is great too).
I guess our goal would have been better achieved with different opponents (no offence to Goonswarm, but they are hardly the "epic content" I had in mind - I was thinking more Darth Vader than Jar-Jar Binks), and less lag; but they are still being achieved none the less.

With the turn of MC we may still get the Epic content, and I am keeping my fingers crossed on the Epic battles (which, it has to be said, have been much improved over recent days).

Yes, people got played - but it wasn't really a secret anyway. I'm sure many people were on to us pretty early on (in fact, I know some were, because we talked and laughed about it over drinks), I'm just shocked that so many people are having a hard time accepting that we are playing a game of internet spaceships, and trying to make it as fun and entertaining as possible.
Without a bit of drama Eve would be so dull.

The only thing you revealed at an Eve meet is that you're a tremendous nerd and you'll never feel the touch of a woman.
