Originally by: Captain Thunk Where do these "Bobs fighting 70-80% of Eve" figures come from?
Official CCP figures show that there's only around 8% of Eve in 0.0 - infact more live in low sec. This 8% of course includes a large amount of NPC ratters of dubious origin, untrained scouting alts and a fair amount of people who've travelled out into deep space to see what it's like and then Ctrl+Q'd and have never logged back in since.
Seems like BoBs fighting 1%-2% of Eve if you ask me - *lying* good luck and stuff, let me know how the 1.5hr jump lag goes for you. */lying*
Thunk!
Ah... a semantics attack! The implicit meaning of 70-80% is the 0.0 population. Who in their right mind would argue that the empire population has anything to do with this war? Apart from those who would use it with weak forum-fu naturally.

More than semantics, as I said - there's a lot of untrained alts, NPC ratters and people just living in 0.0 and steering clear of the whole great war thing. It's still nowhere near "70-80%"

That may be. But it's definitely a lot more than 1-2%.

The 1-2% was when I mistakenly believed the phrase "Eve population" to mean exactly that.

Goons are doing what they think they need to do to win.
They had alot of discussions about how to beat us from meatgrinding to being very very careful not to engage in fights where things could go badly.
They chose meatgrind, a bold and gutsy decision in my mind. Its something that needs dedication to the cause and utter reliance on your members to keep coming back to the field with new BS.
Goons think they can achieve this and you have to hand it to them, if they manage to completely take our space in this manner it will be an achievement, a costly one but still its isk nothing else to do with it.
From might point of view, Ive enjoyed the build up to all of this, I cant play as much as I would like but yesterday I was allowed by the other half to indulge and It was a truely great EVE sunday.
Lots of fleet movements, lots of intel coming in, lots of decisions to make. Some of you might not like him but you have to give it to Molle on a day like that with so many enemey fleets around he got us to where we had to be all day without any mishap.
Equally goons mc and others did their bits to make it an epic day.
All in all, I hope every one enjoys this epic fight for delve. As some one that has witnessed a few wars this is by far the most interesting. Ive lost all of my space before to the russians and Ive taken space from alot of alliances. What happens after isnt really important.
Hats of to every one.
See you in space. _______________________________________________ S T A N Former DICE ceo Former ATUK director Former MACE ceo

A # of players fighting on each side would be more accurate. Unless you imply that those "lot of untrained alts, NPC ratters and people just living in 0.0 and steering clear of the whole great war thing" are all actually inside the coalition ?

Originally by: Knocturnal
Originally by: Fred0 How can you be that naive. Goons is the biggest driving force between both in Raw manpower and Planning and Hosting. If anyone deserves bragging rights from this it is them.
Not to mention that organising 5% (2k out of 40k online last night) of EVE is a feat in itself. BOB tried 2+ years ago in their quest to take over all of 0.0 eve but failed and was left alone to die.
Sorry but i miss the fun of the game when i'm in a gang with 2k people and system lag and can't do nothing ... ffs even 50man gang is to big for meh ... :( But what do i know about ...
I hope you give goonz they`re credit when they come and blob and lag you do death aswell . Dunno why but i got a feeling i`ll feel those blobs and lag soon enough on my skin ..
Best Regards.
There's a couple of different funs. Lot's of people find more than just straight small gang, twitch based pew pew fun. That's totally up to you though but sooner or later you're gonna have to embrace and compete at all kinds of EVE Warfare because if you don't. Chances are someone else will and you will loose by default 
In all honesty I would rather lose by default. In fact I know we will lose by default and it will probably be very soon. Losing doesn't matter I am sure we are going to stick to our guns. I don't think we should let anyone dictate our gameplay.
The blob will get us eventually. We are to juicy a target to miss, not to mention we don't like friending up with everyone and their mother.
Hey but who cares, it's evolution, we will just move on if/when it happens. ----------

Please keep going, it's worked wonders for you and your alliance so far.

Originally by: Fred0 Yesterday you said you were gonna win. Now you say you are gonna loose but you are gonna have an awesome K/D Ratio. Given up already? There can only be one conclusion. You don't have what it takes dbp.
Go back and read what I wrote fred0. You obviously missed the point. You've read between my lines and unfortunately there must have been some small oonswarm postings there because you didn't get it. I never said we were going to win, I never said we were going to lose. I simply said that while you guys try and take delve BoB are going to make you bleed worse than you've ever bled before. Not that you personally have bled much of course, we know you are far more interested in bandwagonning then running away when it looks like the going is getting tough.
Originally by: Fred0 We have 20+ regions to loose and we're fully prepared to fight for each one of those and loose them only to come back and be here again in 12 months time.
Yah yah, course you have. Let me tell you something that it seems you have missed. You don't have 20+ regions. You aren't part of the coalition's big plans. You are simply another tool brought in to try and dismantle our pos and then you'll be discarded back to running away from other alliances.
Anyway, I'm enjoying this thread, it's like a big bath full of goons frothing each other up. Unfortunately, they are only lubing themselves up in preparation for their next slaughter but, by jove, it's fun to watch.
Keep going guys but please, please, remember to get your ships replaced for tonight.
It's going to be LEGEN - wait for it -

I don't think you 'get' goons.
Also, we have had something for at least a year now that you have never had. Allies who like us, not because we are 'The Endgame' or we play with Ehonor, but because we are chill brosefs. We have fought and died along side these guys week after week, month after month and have been damn happy to have each other around. Whereas you treat any potential ally like a lesser because of your own conceded narcisism.
You can blather on about your K/D ratio and how you planned this all back at the great BoB bbq of 1812, and how we are just a bunch of waterheaded idiots, but guess what? That bunch of idiots will be living in delve.
Anyway, I'm not that great at this hurf blurf stuff, so just keep doing your Tokyo Rose impression, it's pretty laffo.

Hey guys the coalition just got a bit ahead in this.
We just killed a guardian repping some guns in qy6, and I looted his warden I's (Traded them with 5 hammerhead II's later with some vexor that wanted to shot pos).
So hey, we didn't do too bad I guess (if you don't count regions)

I'd also like to see them make it so that only people with > 20m skill points can enter 0.0 and that fleet battles are only allowed to use T2 hulls or battleships.

That's a nice start for us. You see, while you mock LV, we couldn't careless what you say because this is now ALL about the kills for us. The space, the pos, it's all defunct and we're simply going to bleed you like stuck pigs. So keep coming and keep dying. My guys have NEVER had it so good.
this paragraph is a special paragraph

What interests me is that at one point, Goonswarm was pushed out of 0.0 space altogether. They had nothing. Now look where they are - steamrolling the whole southern area of our internet spaceship game, and now they want to push into Delve, chucking BoB out of 0.0 altogether.
Why do some of them now assume that pushing BoB back into Empire will kill them, when it didn't kill Goonswarm back when it happened to them? ----- "I am prepared to meet my maker; whether my maker is prepared for the great ordeal of meeting me is another matter." |

those threads you are referencing was the directorate trolling the membership (and you i guess) before unveiling the titan and had nothing to do with strategy vOv

Edited by: dr shark on 28/01/2008 13:32:41 Im willing to play Russian Roullete as any individual in here (or in RL as well, whole world).
We can play 1 rounds, or even 2 rounds (1 bullet in the gun).
First round will be left with only 3 billion ppl after.
Judging by the percentage of braindamge in these corners of virtual world, i think 3 bill is still to dangerous for clarity of human mind.
Ergo, one more round will be needed.
Please, be aware, that i dont separate right from wrong, better from worst. I give 50% chances to everyone involved.
But please, please, please...think about humanity, not about your sorry a.s.s....I hope you are up for it
