EZ currently only hold sov there due to more towers in place, however half of those are currently in reinforced mode.  IT have 10 towers placed, so once those in RF go down, and I can imagine they will - and IT replace them, just as dominion ticks, they may get PNQYY sov :D

Their killboard picture shows that Fountain may just be the staging area for attacking Goons, so wonder how long it will take till Goons interfere.

In the long run yes.
But we'll see how PL can handle them first. They did seem to lose a huge capfight the same day as the invasion started.

goons are already involved, if you check out the 30 apocs destroyed by a few Stealth bombers, some of the pilots there were goons.

Post by: Mangala on November 23, 2009, 04:01:37 PM
In terms of sheer skill PL DONT - and never really have - need Goons to help take down an entity like IT/Bob/Kenny etc inside PL's own borders; In terms of "ooh bob, lets roadtrip" then Goons will pop up (as they have done) and utilise their "blue against molle" status with PL/SoT to get some action going, but its not an actual request thing;

People go where the targets are and for Goons, IT are an old enemy, so make for good targets. 

Now as to whether Goons read as much into IT's banner as others do/will, we'll have to see.  Biggest test for IT, will be in the usual post-expansion haze that sees their biggest "enemies" likely to have more people back playing due to expansion newness - although EZ will be evicted by then (I hope).

Tower count in PNQYY is weighing more towards IT, so I can hope as I suggest above.

Hurley says:

Quote
Ok, its time to tell the whole true story and I joined my old corp for the sole purpose of being able to post here in CAOD.

First let's start with a history lesson.

Once upon a time I joined Black Nova Corp from Federation of Freedom Fighters since F-OFF was getting inactive at the time and we had been working with BoB for a while. I joined, enjoyed the pvp, made enough isk to buy a titan and had BNC build me one. It was used very little due to the fact that Molle always put every titan pilot on stand by ready to save him if something went wrong.

Time went by and one day an FC asked if hurley could doomsday a PL gang. The FC was asked 2 simple questions 1) Are goons gone? 2) Are there capitals on standby if this goes badly? Yes, Yes. Doomsday failed, goons were ready and had a spy within BoB for this very occasion. Titan died, Coranor kicked me from the corp. Coranor will say I was leaving anyways or that an example needed to be made of us, but all I did was follow orders and the FC was left unpunished.

This left a bitter hatred of BoB for them kicking me for losing 1 titan, not 5 and for no one amongst the BoB community standing up for me (except for Cleisthenes2). Let me repeat, I'd despise BoB.

I give 0.0 a shot under my own flag (Aggression.) and its fun for a while, but it required setting other alliances blue to accomplish anything which ultimately left us without space. This created a strong hate of Atlas/AAA/RO.

I decide I had been on the Bad side for far too long, I look across to Goons, PL, NC and ultimately choose SoT because I wasn't playing as much as I used to and figured I could play part time with this group more easily than the others.


Back to the Future:

I play part time with SoT just as I predicted, used the Titan once or twice and in September of this year I buy a house and RL calls me away from the game a bit more than normal. I sent a corp mail explaining that I would be absent from game until time allowed more play time. I also get a Great Dane puppy who really takes up my time and decide that life is just too busy anymore to be a Titan pilot. 2 weeks ago I decide that I do want to sell Hurley and the titan and just be a normal, everyday pilot.

As thanksgiving week approaches I log on and prepare a few bs's to join the fighting since thanksgiving break was going to give me that chance. I notice that my roles on all of my characters have been removed and decide to throw my navy apoc and paladin in, just in case they are really going to kick me out. Having your roles removed without any warning scares you into packing just a little bit.

As I place a 5 ships into my hangar I realize I don't have a cyno and decide that I'll just move stuff later and just before I decide to log off, the tower goes offline, fleet comes out of warp and I just sit in shock trying to ask why. PL cap fleet jumps in to finish me off and while I'm in structure I finally decide they really are going to kill me and set off the DD before I go down.

So, you probably know all of these details, so here are the ones you don't know.

1) I never did remove my roles, SoT didn't even verify this before they assumed I was leaving and had removed them myself.

2) Directly after the event, Jolinar and Sabre Wulf decide that they were wrong and killed me wrongfully and try to figure out compensation.

3) Jolinar ransoms all isk and assets of corp to cause a meeting and for grappler to appear.

4) grappler appears and comes out with new evidence to support his director post stating that upon logging in I must die. Directors agree that "what happened, happened and is in the past" and inform me that no, I can't stay in alliance or corp and that they will give me nothing. grappler also lies to other directors stating that he attempted to contact me through evemail and convo's to inquire of my inactivity, both of which never happened.

5) Evidence against me includes:

An IT forum post from someone asking if their quote friend "hurley" can rejoin IT 3 days before my death.

A corp history that includes BoB

The fact that several other ex f-off members have quit and joined IT

That I removed my roles and was evacuating (even though they later discovered that they had removed my roles)

6) Evidence that they were wrong:

Witness of Lanaqwik from 2 weeks earlier that I was looking for a buyer to hurley and the titan (why would I join a new alliance when I was selling)

My well documented history of hating BoB since my exile

I did not remove my roles

I was never planning on leaving DVRN, I was simply inactive due to RL.

I am not so stupid as to try to save low valued bs's with a titan when I am supposedly joining the enemy. I have 3 carriers in wy- to do that with at a cheaper and faster way.

IT never invited me to join nor did I ever ask.



So, in conclusion (yes I know this was long), SoT would rather sweep their mistake under the carpet than admit that they were stupid enough to fall for obvious propaganda/meta gaming. I mean, I didn't think when I joined that their leadership could be so gullible and stupid. I will most likely be selling Hurley without a titan or implants and Cosmo will be looking for a new corp as outlined in the recruitment thread. Any other specific questions, ask in here and I'll do my best to answer. However, the overall final answer is:

I WAS NOT QUITTING SoT AND WAS NOT THINKING ABOUT JOINING IT. PL/SoT MADE A MISTAKE AND ARE NOT MAN ENOUGH TO ADMIT IT OR FIX IT.

Found this post on COAD:

Quote
Event horizon pets lost a carrier in r3w. R3w is their jbridge to yrnj, and this was their last evacuation route.

What is left of their battered forces tried to fight IT, and lost horribly. The carrier was fit for RR armor with 2 cap RR reppers, BUT the rag-tag fleet they assembled had the rest of their shield tanking RAVENS.

In the end, it was another slaughter of the pets who finally had to learn PVP the hard way.

Event horizon still has 49 pos's in fountain AND about 20 low sec pos's in aridia, so the battle now moves to the "mop up" phases of moon grabbing, land grabbing, and popping corp hangers stuffed to the brim of rat loot.

Since the bob attack hit PNQ so fast after losing the dread fleet in syndicate, event horizon didnt take it seriously.

Almost their entire cap fleet is locked in pnq as sov flips. Rumors estimate over 50 cap ships are locked down in pnq, including 4 rorquals, 3 jfreighters 30+ carriers and the rest dreads.

Also event horizon put what is left of their building trit on market-over 500 000 000 units, and the stopped trying to make t1 ships to fight.

Last nite, a goon squad went to pnq with minor success but they lost, and also a pandemic legion medium POS as a staging base was destroyed.

Once sov flips the question is this:

1) will IT mop up some moons around pnq?
2) will they island hop deeper into fountain?
3) will they take g95 which is the renter center for all the rest of the PL Sot Pets

stay tuned!

Sums it up quite well :)

Overall PL seems actually "happy" with this invasion - its by an actually competent force (even after the large cap loss they suffered over the weekend they stepped up and did this) and is by all accounts giving good fights.
Title: Re: IT "invade" fountain"!!
Post by: peo on November 25, 2009, 06:48:55 PM
I seriously doubt eh had that amount of caps.
By all accounts when we were there (and I doubt they have increased it significantly since then) eh could field around 10 combat caps.
Several of those were in flashtrooper (which are in gpc now) and in the two corps they booted just before we left.
So I would guesstimate that they could at most field around 15-20 caps. (combat that is no clue about the non-combat ships).
In either case I suspect them to fold soonish.

They still have a few systems - 14 or so - but going on memory they were quiet overall, not used that much by anyone for much except sitting at poses. 

They'll lose them though as poses no longer count towards sov as we know, and theres no way they can safely jump in ships carrying the new infrastructure/flags etc without them getting popped by roaming gangs :)

Especially given that the I-hugs require a freighter ;) So they would need a titan JB to get it going and with the lack of cash they always had they can probably not afford a outpost anyway which makes sov basically worthless.

So a SOT corp leaves - also holds sov in Y-2 for the alliance.  Sov drops, IT cap the station then online a tcu.  The NC plus PL/Goons all decide they'll jump in to try and stop it last night in US prime.  IT had 600+ in system with a grid they'd been on all day (pos+TCU) including 200+ caps and 16-20 titans....

PL and friends lost 4 titans, stacks of caps etc as they tried to jump into a system whose node hadnt been reinforced and they subsequently lagged out something crazy. Unless you were already preloaded into the system by sitting there all day!

Quite amusing really. Espeically when those titans got DD'd by lots of other titans altogether.

Prost seem to have gone a step up though, Majesta Empire. (noemy etc)
The majority to the "exodus alliance" which I guess is a temporary alliance used while evacing stuff.

Look at fountain now:

IT are certainly showing up on there in the old familiar "bob" blue.

Basically its a clean up for them in Fountain now, SOT/PL gave up - SOT cos they cascaded, PL cos they "didnt want that space anyways"!!!

Yeah right  ::)

Their claims after the fact "we really didn't want that space" rings so damn hollow.

We didnt want that space anyway is an ongoing EVE joke/meme.  Bob started it way back when iirc :)

Perhaps, but take VS for example who basically has said in a few places that due to CCP nerfing their moon income they didn't think it was worth defending. Personally I think they are emo-rage-stopping to defend due to CCP changing the game they were used to.

(PL currently has 223 individuals in it, around 280 pre-Dominion,

Rather interesting tidbit about PL numbers from VS.

Would pan right to be honest as theres 949 pilots in PL. So roughly 1main+2alts each?.

The drop could be explained away by Section XIII leaving though.

Fallout from PL withdrawal is being seen.

Shamis is basically kicking OShit out of PL.

Quote from: Viper Shizzle
This is going to be a very long post so bear with me:

I've decided to not add any specific logs for the time being, I don't feel like digging most of them up right now but I'll probably post them sometime tomorrow.

During the initial stages of the Fountain invasion it was obvious (to most) that PL wasn't going to be able to hold space. Ops weren't being lead, our allies (SOT) were cascading and nobody was really dedicated to keeping a region few of us saw the value in. PL was burning out fairly quickly and OSHIT decided that we needed some time to "have fun".

If you've never played the sov warfare game, having fun has nothing to do with it. At this point neither side was really pushing and no ops were being posted for PL to join. Anyway, OSHIT heads to lowsec for a weekend and hotdrop people with faction BS. Shamis basically said this was me "killing PL" and that I took "half the alliance to lowsec" while they were "defending fountain". This is something he's still been going on about until today.

After Fountain, Shamis decided to move the alliance to Geminate and reset all standings so we could get "back to our roots". Most of OSHIT was cool with this until we got to Geminate, settled down and had, yet again, no ops posted. I decided that it was a better use of our time to secure some corp income that we'd lost during the Fountain invasion and, once again, Shamis felt as if we were "killing PL" by not having all of our members in Geminate while nothing was going on.

I'm not completely blameless in this. I could have been running ops the entire time we've been in Geminate, however I'm not much drawn to ~wulfpax~ and we lacked the numbers to do much more than that, even with the entirety of OSHIT in Geminate. Most of OSHIT was chilling around the same area of lowsec and we'd been putting some tech moons into reinforced (which nearly lost us three motherships and 15 carriers last weekend).

We openly talked about leaving during the latest op and Shamis decided to convo me about it

PL RE-ORG

So as most of you already know, due to some failtrain forum permissions, a post that I made, in snigg inner circle has been released to CAOD by viper. I can't say I blame him for releasing said post since he was the primary target of the post.

I had hoped to handle all these issues much more elegantly, but now that the dirt's out there is no point in hiding from it.

To the people of OSHIT
I feel that viper creates a hostile environment within PL. Trolling is fine when it's funny, but with viper it is typically malicious...usually with the intent of undermining the authority or reasoning of some other leader in PL, whether it be myself, or another ceo, or some FC. This had a great deal to do with why Angel resigned, and I hoped things would improve after that, but they haven't.

While OSHIT was a functioning member of the alliance, contributing a significant number (nearly 40%) of our active pilots, I was willing to put up with a lot, but now that viper and/or oshit has decided to isolate themselves from PL, there really is no point in tolerating the situation any longer.

There have always been several unwritten rules in PL. Use alliance voice comms, invite other people to your gangs, live in the same space as the rest of the alliance. These things help create unity in the alliance, and without that there is no point in being in an alliance at all.

So, to you the people of OSHIT: I very much like flying with your active pilots. I'm done with the trolls, and I'm done with the drama. If your corporation elects a new ceo that isn't an asshole, AND relocates to live with the alliance AND starts using alliance comms regularly, then you are welcome to stay. If your answer is no, then I would kindly like to invite any active oshit member to join snigg if you wish to stay with PL. Your are of course welcome to apply to other corps as well but I cannot speak for their ceo's/recruiters.

To the people of FCUK
Get your leadership and your capitals to geminate in the next 3 days or get out. If you cannot do this, or don't want to do this, then once again I would like to kindly invite any members that wish to stay in PL to join another corp.

To the people of NESW
You've been with us a long time. And you still have several awesome members. But as of late you typically have 1-2 guys online maximum, and you've been involved in a lot of activities that I really don't like very much such as running around in gangs with hostile entities and chilling in empire all day. Sort your corp out, and talk to me. This needs fixing. If you can't sort things out, then again, please join another PL corp if you wish to stay in the alliance. I expect some changes within the week.

To the rest of you, keep doing what you're doing, but keep looking for ways to improve your organizations. I'm sure many of you will ask why I'm not also raging at BOS/COVEN/Blabs so I'll explain: they don't have many active members, but the ones they do have, are active, and in PL fleets daily. They aren't fucking about on the other side of the universe and they aren't flying around with hostiles, and they are typically on PL comms... Obviously these corporations could all use some more active members, but that is a problem plaguing all of PL at the moment.

Another theme with the other corps is they tend not to cause me any drama, which I like very much.

Notice
Any corporations that wish to leave the alliance will be given safe passage out of geminate.

So? What will happen to PL now? Basically seems to be only Snigg left after this happens.
