Well done sir. Well done.
I just re-read chapter 13 of "the art of war" in homage to this event. I think we should call this maneuver a "chapter 13".
As in "way to chapter 13 bob." (do you think this warrants a urban dictionary definition?)
You have successfully made use of all 5 types of spies, and have executed your battle tactic at the right moment :D
If this happened to me I'd be upset, but I would accept it, and so should you all. (looking forward to interesting game mechanics)

Originally by: DUCKFEATHERS Is it safe to say that this is as personal as it gets? ♥
I concur, now if it really one director going rogue. Yes, I expect many wont agree to that description and not accept the description of events we have so far. Especially that I expect the bizarre rumour mill we have in Eve will send more smokescreens here in the forum. No I'm not complaining, With one epic event like this one they certainly will be posting on double shifts. :p
And I still don't have the right portrait showing after many many months. :'( |

It was. But more importantly it opens up a Pandora's Box, or better yet a Paranoia's Box (see what I did there). If I were in Goon leadership I'd be weary of my directors now more than ever, precisely because of their success.

BOB were quite the nap lords themselves
But Flinx, I thought that most of those were irrelevant, weak, not really a threat. Thats what PL and goons and other have been on about (not without reason).
Surely such enemies don't need a napfest to deal with anymore. Time for a general reset, don'tcha think?

Hey, all of those entities are much better than most of our allies. They are definitely way better than us.

Originally by: el toppolino i dont think its cool. i dont think it will change anything.
Yes, it will, bob is dead.
Originally by: el toppolino things like this makes your enemy only stronger and shows how weak you are when it comes to actual fighting.
Not really, they've lost a lot of assets already, they are running out of delve top speed while we try to kill them.
Originally by: el toppolino
you cannot kill a spirit and you cannot steal a name and its history.
Well, we could argue about spirit, we took the name, history is written by the winners.
Originally by: el toppolino the good thing is Mittani burned his name in the world of eve and will never be trusted again.
Really? You think Mittani lost some trust?
Originally by: el toppolino dont get me wrong if it would happen to goon or anybody else i wouldnt call it good either.
I don't know, I'm gonna have to call shenannigans on that one.

Edited by: Cletus Graeme on 05/02/2009 18:47:09 Today has confirmed my love for EvE and Goons.
Espionage and intrigue has achieved what sheer force of numbers and willpower could not - no doubt helped, in no small measure, by a betrayal from within.
I personally think it's unlikely that this is the work of just one man. Rarely are such large scale endeavours achieved by lone individuals. Far more likely that a small group within BoB high command became increasingly disgruntled and decided to cause this implosion. Key members of BoB have been quietly leaving the alliance recently. The analogy of rats and a sinking ship comes to mind.
Haargoth and The Mittani will take the credit for this masterstroke - and rightly too! - but the silent consenters within BoB who facilited/allowed this to happen will remain anonymous, possibly for all time.
Now to the juicy speculation (which we all love)! Assuming, the whole thing was legit there are 3 obvious scenarios:
(1) Longtime sleeper, super-elite goon spy goes public with disasterous (for BoB) consequences
(2) Disenchanted, disgruntled BoB director savagely uber backstabs his own alliance of 4 years in a fit of mad emo rage at their arrogance
(3) Third party high level BoB spy decides to play his trump by making public his winning hand and chooses to do it VIA the goons for MAX effect (see what idid there?)
At this stage, which of these is the truth is anyone's total and utter complete guess but methinks it could actually be (3).
I see the guiding hand of a certain social club behind all this. Ifimrite I'm sure Istvaan will c/d? in due course Whatever the real cause EvE will never be the same again after today but all those people yelling that the sky if falling are full of ****.
EvE will survive this and more - however (HEALTH WARNING FOLLOWS) YOU might not!

Stop give goons credit, it was Harrgot on his own, So if you dont like someone and had the chance to do it, I would do the same. Dident Haargoth loose his titan, or was it his buddy that got it taken? Cant remember, but revange tastes always sweeter BoB got what they deserved, sadly I it will make eve bad due everyone is napped with everyone. Only thing is like the "powerhouse" aka minersquads will reset smaller alliance, just to show how big bad day are, and try to motivate their pvpers.
My dream is that the good pvpers in the big powerblck will leave 0.0 warefear and start smaller corps for some awsome smallgang pvp era
I will hopefully enjoy it, if I ever undock

remember when BoB didn't need our help to beat back the Goons all this year...well, I think they just threw that (unnecessary)mercy out the window like you said.
This will be interesting. Think of the Titans/blobs we will see die, again.
Ammunition. Check. ECM. Check. Fleet. Check. Destination. Check. FRAPS. Check. Plant-free head...maybe.
Still squinting for those end credits?
SO bob wouldnt accept you so now you hate them? Sounds about right for you bunch.

here's who gets props:
tamir lenk for recruitment-scamming haargoth
igne corp for convincing haargoth that goons are culturally superior
haargoth for doing the deed, stealing the isk, the caps, the towers, disbanding bob
my only part was to organize things, and to conceive of disbanding the alliance and stealing their name vOv
darius for doing making Internet Girlfriend and becoming CEO of Band of Brothers
zapawork for managing the forum archiving
the rest of the gia directorate who shall remain nameless for aiding in innumerable ways

I won a pretty epic game of CivIV the other day where I didn't fire a master stroke to take a capital or batter down a legion of enemy defenders. I just convinced the world to love me by building theaters and wonders, until I won by culture.
This is the Goons winning by culture, you can't fairly say they weren't involved. ♥ |

Well bottom line is Harrgoth may have been the one to open the door, but Goon and their allies are the ones running through and shooting everything in their path. So in the end whether they started it or not... Goon gets the victory and the glory. But I certainly dont think they (BoB) is just gonna curl up and die. We havent seen the last of them unfortunatly and even if we have, there is a new powerhouse to hate now. In the end we just trade one tyranical alliance for another, perhaps worse one. (and i consider myself an ally of the worse one) |

Originally by: CornerStoner Contract scams = no outrage Suicide ganks = no outrage Corp theft = no outrage Spies = no outrage
Alliance Director flushes = major outrage?
All the above is what makes EVE so different and better than the other MMOs. BOB was too big to be managed by one person I guess. Lesson learned for the other alliances I suppose.
Why shed tears over one and not the other? Because of scale? Hipocrisy is running rampant.
Continue with the "All that work lost by thousands of toons playing an internet spaceships game"
/me swims in river of tears
Please excuse me, had dinner (GF scares me far more than Goons, heck, telletubies scare me more than Goons) and need to play catchup. No no, we don't cry outrage for the treason done, which is of course still outrages, so are the others you mentioned. We, that is I, cry outrage because someone else claims ownership of said treason.
It's like this (hypothetically): Say the assassination attempt by the Germans on ****** succeeded (like the movie Valkyrie). And the Americans would have claimed that assassination attempt as their victory of their device. I would apploud the Germans for killing a tirant, not the Americans for 'succeeding', as they in fact they accomplished nothing. Same applies here. |
