What I am curious about is the support fleet behind him that wouldn't engage a fleet 1/3 hostile.

Doesn't that sound like a good fight?

And as for proof of Goons trying to lag the fight with shuttles and noob ships just check out our killboards

19 shuttles killed and 45 rookie ships killed give or take a few that may not have been part of the battle but most were.

Way to go Goons you just lost a titan km :P and we didn't even want that titan anyway

Not as epic as you would think... 5 minutes to lock something, 30 minutes - 1 hour to jump into the system.... logging in dead.

They got lucky with the node crashing, regardless of who's fault it was, we had dreads in system 10 minutes before the node went down. Their support fleet could rep him through the damage of the BS fleet + support, but they wouldn't have lasted long against the DNs.

i was in a noobship because i had no remaining usable ships in 49-, got podded few mins before the fight started, docked, and wanted a piece of the cake rather than staying inside the station, guess I'm stupid right?

Shrike got lucky, that's about it.

If that gives a morale boost to BOB than I hope this luck doesn't disapear so soon because delve is becoming pretty blue without bobbits in it :(

This event started with our fleet (roughly 70 strong) got sandwiched in between two various fleets of 100+. Fleet was in 407, hostiles in 49 and 407.

We decided to set the hostiles up for some capital action, quickly gathered a few capitals, inclduing titan. 13 carriers/mommas and 1 titan prepared as the fleet warped to 49 gate, into a dictor bubble, and mwd'ed through the bubble to 49 gate.

On the other side, hostiel fleet is waiting for us, as well as the 49 hostiles. We fire the cyno in 49, drop titan in, and fire dd, carriers arrive on the scene anout 10 seconds after the titan. Most all hostiles are stuck in their own bubble, and as soon as the dd has been fired, our fleet jumps to 49 (loosing a few in the process of jumping, as the timing weas critical). This is the starting event.

We loot the field, and, camp the gate, dd hit well.
After about 15 minutes, the hostiles have gathered up more pilots, and they jump into us. Local goes from 80+ to about 250 in 10 minutes. We stand and fight on the gate. Me, personally, loaded perhaps 20 ships during this whole event, and targetcalling etc was not really possible, the standing order was "shoot whatever you load".

At 1 time, we had a carrier going to 30% armor before the spidertanks kicked in, at two different times, the titan was made primary, and stripped of shields, titan never came below 98% armor. Command modlue lag was 10 minutes more or less exactly, so dd-timing was more then tricky. I actually clicked the dd button 10 minutes before my timer was up, and the command went through 10 mins later.

3 doomsdays later, and 1 servercrash later, this is what you get.

The aftermath

After the servercrahs, the order was given to our capitals to hold, until we got a proper overview of the situation, ie, wtf is in there and how many? After about 25 minutes (yes, it took 25 mins to actually get a scan done), local is up to 700+ hostiles, and the call is given for capitals to go to rest, and for fleet to move to 8qt.

Serverlag aside, this would have been a much better fight, if both sides would have been able to load/jump/cyno into the system and actually load stuff.

I for one is happy with 3 very good dd's, and the scotch was good.
Capitals have now moved back to delve, for some much needed refueling.

There are ships killed on gate trying to get into 49-u. Add in the several dozen more inside 49. I almost thought this was kisigo....

In total - roughly 60+ noob/shuttle. Add in crappy frigs that cannot combat within smartbomb range and you are looking at several hundred useless people in system.

Bizarro Goon fantasy post. Here, you seem to have trouble using Bob's killboard:

Fleet Battle

Note that the board says 250-odd Coalition,w hen we know it was 500+, so the following numbers should be doubled:

14 Frigates
4 Noob ships
2 Shuttles
5 Assault Ships (we all know they are worthless, right?)

not to mention all the cruisers and crap that couldn't actually contribute to a cap battle anyway...

Unfortunatly , even with the API your killboard isnt accurate, you seem to have a problem with the code that means some losses are not posted,
Your board shows 2 battleship losses for today so far, there are at least 4 on other boards that dont use API.
So quoting your board as proof when it is flawed isnt helpful.

(Not smacking here, just pointing out the API isnt working as intended)

Good Luck all whom hunt the Big BoB Whale...

So he logged to save his ship, or did the node go down again...... conveniently

---

The node went down, I'm not really sure what to say - node crashes are not likely to happen when you have 900 in local.... must be dev hacks instead.

Still it does sort of suck that ccp creates ships that are impossible to kill without enormous numbers and then fails to build a system that allows you to get those numbers into the required system.

Ok how about this one:

Etc etc

Yet still the little Goonbleat warriors are whining about the lag and node overload. It's amazing that even with the odds stack so far in their favour they still manage to fail so badly.

---

So those three ships that weren't even in the target system managed to lag out 49-? I know eve has some server troubles from time to time but I've got a hunch they can handle THAT.

Yep did a doublecheck those three are the only rookie/shuttle kills on the board during that time period.

Requires Quality not quantitiy. Insted of 800+, most of which were crap (including 60+ noobship/shuttles), a group a fraction of that size in quality ships could have done the job.

Having the node crash is the worst outcome possible, because there's no resolution. It's like getting interrupted in the midst of sex by your parents.


The other big problem with BoB and node crashes is the lingering taint of previous favouritism by certain CCP employees.... And so now it makes a good perennial rallying cry irrespective of the actual truth.

So what if Goons bought heaps of rookie ships.... So what if Shrike didn't re-log after the node rebooted, to continue the fun. (Who the hell would??).

3 hours for a battle? That's epic.

There's an attribute they don't list in the Titan description:
"When deployed will attract so many friendly and enemy fleets that 'stellar events' (aka Node Crashes) inevitably occur"

I wonder how you store a titan when all of your POSes are blown up and you have no more space left. I guess you keep it logged off? Oh well, we'll find out in about a month or two.

Congratulations on not losing a titan, this must be a crowning achievement for the Band of Brothers alliance. I guess I'd be happy too if I had saved a titan after losing one previously and then losing a heapload of regions.

So, what you are saying is you are measuring your success by never having accomplished anything to begin with? Nice logic....

There are fair number of people who never try to succeed because they are afraid they will fail, I guess you fall into this category.

And to answer your question, we have lost 1 titan and 3 regions. But at least we keep going and trying . There was this one alliance that lost almost all of their regions once to. Their name was Red Alliance, you may want to look em up and see how they are doing now.

Theres all kinds of alliances that were great powers that have fell, there were also insignificant alliances that never really accomplished anything. Kind of like yours.

Argue against Bob all you want. Yes we lost regions, yes we lost a Titan. At least we have the balls to try to take it all in the first place. I just love all the people who jump on the Goons+RA bandwaggon and try to talk about how "they" beat bob.

The truth is, Molle almost lost his titan. He should have lost it. I mean, I played better than he did, i was sure of it! But thanks to my own stupidity and arrogance, I didn't see him controlling me the whole time.

I was getting a bigger pile of chips all night long, mocking him every time he lost a hand. I thought my mockery was working and his anger was apparent when he was about to fold his last possible hand. He was down to 4 blue chips, and the buy-in for the next round was 5 blue. So he put in his Avatar title as collateral for more funds I accepted with cloaked joy.. This was just what I had been planning. My smack talking had succeeded! The next round i would take the avatar from him in one fail swoop.

When I laid down my full house (aces high) and started to smile my "OMG I HAVE TO GO TO THE FORUMS AND POST HOW AWESOME I AM OVER AND OVER AND OVER" smile, i noticed that he was starting to smile too. After knowing him for nearly a decade, I knew this was bad for me. He laid down a royal flush.

He took every chip off the table, and his titan back as well. We were "all in" that last round. What the hell was I thinking? I was overconfident thanks to a whole night of kicking this Swedish meatball all over the place.

Wait, swedish meatball...

Dinner was good. A little too good. He's a good cook, but a lousy bartender.

I KNEW IT. HE GOT ME CRUNK. HE GOT ME CRUNK AND TOOK ADVANTAGE OF ME. AGAIN.

Bah whatever. I should have known it was coming. Abba knew exactly what he was doing the whole time. WHAT THE HELL WAS I THINKING? Why did i let him keep pouring me Turkish coffee? I thought I was crushing his ego with each pile of chips I took from him. The next morning as I nursed my Shrike-induced hangover I remembered that he didn't have an ego to begin with.

Why why why bring 600 ships if 50 dreads plus SOME support would have been enough?? Tackle titan, kill carriers and mothership and then the titan. Result: one dead titan, one dead mothership and several carriers.

And the most stupid thing is to whine on the forums about lag and accuse ccp of some evil node manipulation. That is just idiotic.

Maybe you're new to eve and the series of tubes. It's ok, I forgive you.

Carriers: ships meant to be used in combat. Yes, we like those. We use them in combat. They die and they kill you. Yours die and yours kill people. Good one.

Regions: territory. BoB was made to pvp. Lifting our leg and lubricating on your face by taking regions from you and others has given us what we desire and have always desired, pvp. We have regions and we have had regions. We have given, shared,and lost, and taken them. You have done the same.

Stations: see above. Back in the day I used to run around taking enemy stations by myself simply to provoke a response. Did I care when a mouthy 5th grader and his 17 friends came just for me and I left? (No.) But when they sent 1 or 2 mouthy newbies, I would enjoy dismantling them.

Ships: are carriers not ships? See above, bookend.

Allies: people to fight other people with. conversely, ex people to fight people with who we now fight. What I just said may be well above your intellect, but if you understood me explaining BoB's nature concerning pvp, please try harder to insinuate a loss.

Reputation: lol. yea, we've always cared about that.

Please tell me you are not the best of the Goon's elementary all star forum warriors. Please dear God.
