Serious question?
BOB has been at the same 10 outpost mark for over a month.
Has GoonSwarm given up or are they still trying but just being efficiently repelled?

Anyone want to take a stab at a legitimate, mature answer?

I think you got your answer.
See? I figured we would start getting some decent hypothesis.
Anyone else?

BoB pushed the invaders back, alot of alliances are now slowing down or ending support to tend to personal matters.
BoB has tried to retake space but with little luck, that said the only bragging the coalition has been able to pull off lately is that BoB's own offensive isn't going well enough....dining nol much?
Thanks. I think these two posts make sense and seem to be consistent with each other.

Originally by: Tantaria I dont get why goons posting threads like this with alts. If you wana state that you pos spamed 31 towers in delve do it official and not with an alt :-)
As far as the bigest pos spamage I ve ever seen after the spam nerf, wtf, more towers to kill and nodes to die :-)
I have nothing to do with nor do I desire to have anything to do with - either corporation.
Nothing personal.

Short answer: because taking systems from an enemy compacted into a small area is not as easy as taking systems when your enemy has to run all over the map to defend themselves.
Somewhat longer answer: BoB is dug in well, and digging them out is probably not that easy. Aside from the advantage of Sov 3/4 systems, high mobility through jumpportals and titanbridges and large reserves of ships that BoB enjoys in its homesystems, their main achievement is not crumbling under the pressure, at least until now.
The Coalition has much longer supply lines, which may take some time to get up to speed, and some forces seem to have rotated out, at least for a while. The latest fight for QY6 does seem to indicate that the Coalition is not letting BoB take over the initiative.
Seeing the numerical advantage the Coalition currently enjoys, it is a viable strategy to just slowly grind BoB down, and give people time to recover isk by rotating them in and out of the combat zone. Of course, the success of this tactic depends on whether people will return to the frontlines after some time off.
Then again, I could be completely wrong and its simply because Goons needed to purchase and ship 2 billion metric tons of POS and fuel to their staging points and once that is done they might POS spam Delve to hell and back in a weeks time.
Or alternatively, the whole Coalition is bored out of their skulls and only days away from a total morale collapse after which BoB will sweep back into PB, PS, Esoteria and Feyth in the next month as noone shows up to fight them anymore. Also possible 
All are legimate and mature possibilities - thanks.
For the answer, it would take an extreme amount of candid comments by someone in the know from the coalition and diplomatically and strategically that is not likely to happen on this forum, naturally. So, a post like this one is as close as we will likely get to a solid stab at it. Thanks again.

These are just educated guesses from players on either side, guys.
Let's not point and counter-point directly to each other as we are just trying to uncover the thoughts from both sides of the fence as to their interpretation of the current state of the union.
So far, everyone has done a good job through this point.
