Ok so its been a while (again)

allright i think i keep starting this blog and burning out because i put to much effort in to makeing it sound good. also its a lot of work for me to make long texts that are spelt and gammicaly correct (as you can see in said example). but latey my writeing has inporved a lot so i was thinking i would fill you guys in (yer no one reads this so i am basicly talking to myself) about whats been going on with me and my eve life, without trying to go in to much detail and without trying to write long epic blogs...
i also like to post some new pics :D

so where did i leave off.... ahh PI.
so my PI stuff expanded quite a bit i now have 4 worlds mineing and 1 world puting everything toghter (which seems to be a very populer choice) i will get some photos toghere so you can see how my system works

so what has happend to my Alliance
as i have said i help run an alliance (VVA) which for all instisve resons is dead now (about 30 members all alts of the old directors (inc my own)). long story short: VVA takes in more carebear corps(than we allready have), VVA told to PvP more, VVA makes a massive push to PvP (which i might add starts to work), some people rage quit when we tell them they cant carebear 24/7 (carebear corps leave), others quit as we are pushing hard and they are working hard so they go somewhere else where they can relax a bit (i dont blam them that much), our leader lumis goes MIA (this is just before we are told to PvP more), with no order from up high people lose fiath and start looking else where, LOTS of people leave at once, VVA left with the hardcore (which are very very good PvPers and Eve players), we have a meeting and say we dont want to rebuild again so we will part ways...

thats a very long story cut short and maby i am talking about how i feel it happend.

so what is happening with my Corp
my corp FACTS on EVE... did not die with the alliance as most would think founding corps do, when VVA split ways we took in all the corps membership which was left and wanted to stay in NC space (XSI who our still our very good freinds left to go back to provi and help CVA i wish them much luck as i wish CVA luck as well).
so we said ok lets join another NC alliance, after a good look round and chat with lots of people (offers and such) we settle with OWN allaince... why you ask with all the news of them at late. OWN repesent for us a chanse to grow our name inside an alliance which is still growing and learning. we stand out more in OWN and we will help with whatever they tell us to do. i understand the stuff thats just gone on and see it from both sides, and to be honast i dont care as now i can grow my corp (which now has lots of members and fantasic ones as well its a real joy to see corp chat :D) while not haveing to deeply submit myself to alliance matters and politics.


so we are very happy

so whats been going on with me
well for a while now (ever since VVA droped sov and said to PvP more) iv been homeless new space is on the horazien but iv been pritty much soild PvPing (major fleets and such)
i trying to solo PvP more (and small gang) also keeping up my FCing skills and learning new stuff. like takeing down logi supported gangs and such.
here some stuff i been up to with PVP with pics..
such as bubbleing the crap out of stuff

titan brigeing

Big fleet movement

 Raining missles down on stations (oo yer i have trained missiles skills up and cand fly a tech 2 drake, i feel so very very wrong)
 Lazors on a Ihub!
 MOUR LAZORS on a IHUB

To end with
im still working on them guides (very slowley ofc) and i have a new plan for a maby new type of fleet style... but i will keep a lid on that coz if it works i dont want you to know :P

yer so i played with the new avitars a bit to much and made zama 2.0
  notice he looks sorta like zama but older and more strict (instead of zamas current im passive face)

till next time (which i think wont be that long)
fly sideways!

Back in here and in Provi again

iv been neglecting this blog

yes I have
is coz I’m a busy boy with a life?
Or am I just lazy

*voice in head* "LAZY!"

....
ok on to real things
one big update to make up for the lack of small ones
iv made them up in to the little titles I would of had if I was updating like I should

Fanfest

ok so I went to fanfest and iv come back its been about 3 weeks now :P and iv not told you about it
it was FANTASIC I will be going next year for sure I can’t believe how much fun such a geeky event can be
to start with all the jokes where eve related (my fav is the trip is taking so long I may as well pod myself home). everyone was pretty much talking eve talk tough the whole thing
it was my dream come true
from the moment you walk in the door and see the live feed for jita (lol so funny fights and ships 24/7) I felt at home as a demi-god of eve
you can hear my voice and see me on some of the YouTube videos out there (I leave you to guess that one)
I went to PvP talks, PvE talks, talks about the market, seen lots of new stuff talked to loads of eve fans
seen the most fantastic prestaions iv ever witnessed
... the back ground for the stage w as amazing and they guys at CCP know how to give a show
took part in the PvP torment
... PvP torment aaa yes I well ummm forgot my ammo :( and my other two team mates had no time to fit so we were kind of bummed out by that

Cap op
I can’t say much (as I would be skinned alive by our Cap ship FC) but I went on my 1st cap op in my carrier
it was fun (I know a lot of people think there not) but I enjoyed seeing all that power and jumping from system to system is cool
killed a Dark Blood Control Tower I am very happy about that
also almost got to hot drop a carrier group (but they were quick and jumped out before we could catch them

WH space

So we went in to another Unknown space system (a class 2 this time) with lots of plexs to run and one static link to low sec and another to class 3 WH.
I had planned to use the Class 3 link and do raids in to other systems (not PvP just run the plexs) but we never got around to it as we got a bit fed up after we had finished off the Class 2.
Note to everyone always check you directional scanner. I got lazy (so did my corp mates) and we did not notice the onyx, two nightmares (YES I know nightmares should not go unnoticed), Rapier and a Falcon. Who then came in to our complex we were running and killed Jorrel Baas in his Dominix (and got hits pod), which really sucks because I hate losing members and mainly as I was being lazy could of be avoided completely. Ooo well lesson learned.
lots of people do poke their heads in to WH space I never check there scanners I had a harbinger and a Bestower gas mining while I scanned them down checked them out and go in to bombing range on them with my nemesis (I really love that ship), I did not bomb them (I’m not a pirate) I private one of them then asked them to leave or die (I would of in fact let them finish gas mining if they asked). They closed chat and turned and left faster than I’ve ever seen a Bestower ever go

General musing about WH space
spamming the combat sites in a class 2 gets very boring and WH Large pos takes too much fuel for it to be worth the time for a class 2 WH
lots of people like to poke their heads in to class 2’s as well I think a class 3+ is much safer


Sitting outside stations bombing them is fun

a yes the more evil side to my latest WH trip
I found a link to null sec (red space to me Surprise!) with a station in system, I sat 32km off the station in my nemesis (which I love even more now) and bombs targets I think I could kill
I had a Helios undock I failed to kill (the bomb hit him but did not get the damage it needed)
then came a Bestower which the bomb did kill
I went back for more bombs come back in to system there was a banger mark II which held its docking timer (so took no damage)
after that the system started to light up and I thought it was time to get out

getting out of WH space

The class two is done time to get out
I haul the ships out Delta sorts out the POS
this is the last time we going to do a WH for some time there are other things we as a corp need to be getting on with and I am fed up of WH for the time being all the work of setting up a pos and scanning the system wears you down a bit (esspily if it comes solely down to you to do it)
this WH has not yield fantastic profit only shy of a billion

my friend rejoins VVA

My friend Cneagle has rejoined VVA (I know CN from real life and we are good friends) it’s just a shame he did not rejoin my corp (I duno really why he did not)

Back to provi
so now that all the WH stuff is sorted I head back to my real home of providence
I’m also back to doing a little ratting on the side to fund my ships and going to give the life of PvP a much harder try

Orders from a old friend
a hype and 20 Tristan (plus fits) for less than 84 mil my friend is crazy
I’m going to pay him 90 mil coz I can’t stand it feels like I’m stealing off him

Kills of late
I been flying around in my Ishtar (which I have finally sorted the fit for) and iv had a nice spree of kills
we had a Gallente Navy Comet and pod which got trapped by gate sling bubbles
Impairor I know it’s not worth anything but we got his pod as well (I larth about the noob ship)
2 ishtars and pod (ooo juicy) even 1 Ishtar I failed to do any damage to so no killmail for me for that one, but it was because I focused on the other :P like I should do
I have to put my hat off to my friends in provi of late they are getting good a PvP
1 fleet I ran which was made up of rag tag ships wonderful pilots they all knew exactly what we needed and we killed loads (I was honderd to command them around)
on that note I really love to FC small gangs (max of 20 people) it’s fun without having to go all all supper bossy FC mode (which I can do but don’t like to do)

FACTS and lack of members
I’m sure I’ve talked my corp. before but I think I will outline it again:
FACTS is older than eve we used to pay X games from egosoft way back in the day. FACTS was a clan so to speak (as none of the games are online we never played togever) with the sole aim of helping new players pick up and play X, like eve its very complex, FACTS stands for Free Advice Conquering The System and that’s what we do. As the X games started to lose our attention we as a group of friends started to break up and play other games, I started playing Eve and I was hocked. A few months past and DeltaW7 (known as Delta wolf on FACTS I was known as ZAMA) and we both joined a group called the triangle. Year later some more of our FACTS friends start playing and BAM we have our own "FACTS on EVE" corp (and for the 1st time ever we all start playing the same game online). the rest is as they say history, but after some time we as a corp. start breaking up (people want to do their own things in eve and everyone always moves on) as we have always been facts members we never looking in to getting new members so we are kind of low on numbers at the min and looking to go back to our roots and teach people how to play (on that note older members are welcome too :P).
Just hope we can keep going :)

VVA training op
last thing to note smally is VVA had a PvP training op which went very well
i was part of a red team they had to kill

So I will leave you with some last pics

And I hope to be updating very soon and very often
