[Poag]

7 titans from a number of alliances.

or

7 titans from one alliance sitting under a cyno jammer DDing


I'll let you add names to those two :>

As far as I read it it was:

7 titans from one alliance sitting under a cyno jammer DDing

Mmm, i'd take that a dubious fact, as afaik theres no GS/NC sov 3 systems in Delve/Q yet, but I maybe wrong on that, i'd have to check.

Regardless, sitting under a cyno jammer with 6+ titans is somehting BoB did to Goonies during the first delve war...it worked well and ground down the moral of goons fairly quickly as it just became pointless....so its a fairly good tactic of sapping your enemies will to fight i guess :s

 

[Sharkith]

So Bob have won - they turned Goons into Bob.

 

[Poag]

Could also by that point argue that the mould on a wall is just as good as cheese...after all they are both mould

 

[Sharkith]

Actually no - its not the same thing. As far as I remember Goons started in the spirit of proving you didn't need 30million sp to do well in eve. It was a stroke of genious actually and I still love the fact that they could go around killing CNR's with 15 frigates. I really liked that Goonswarm.

However this all changed after they fought Bob the first time. Bob of course did what Bob has always done - they went out of their way to grief the shit out of Goons. They played nasty.

Now Goons and friends are playing the way Bob play. Ergo Bob has beget Eve in its own image.

Sadly the one thing that seems to have been lost is Goons spirit. All of this is of course from an outsider's perspective. I suspect it is very different inside the alliance. It is sad to see that old Goon identity go. Not a lot of people see them as a good thing anymore.

Pity that. I honestly did like them.

 

[Poag]

I persoanlly dont think goon spirit has lost more evolved with that they ahd to face....but its apples and oranges of opinion :>


Regardless some breaking news.

BoB/Kenny are trying to break our of PR- at this exact moment, goons have nipped it in the bud thus far but theres a fleet roaming around with the intent of a break out.

 

[Poag]

Can't edit my post so..its all over, some caps undocked...got shot at..redocked couple of bubbles got popped but have been replaced now.


All is well.

 

[Sharkith]

oO keep us posted

I agree they had to evolve but they just didn't have to turn into something that is not really liked anymore. Something went wrong.

 

[Sharkith]

I see Boob broke out last night.

 

[popa]

i dont understand why you say boob ...

 

[Poag]

I see Boob broke out last night.

I donno if they broke out really. I was away over the weekend so didn't see it, but theres a post on the Goon forums that the PR- camp was to be pulled down and everyone there was to return to normal fleets.

It seems that Goons are close enough now to Sov3 all over the place that they can afford to let BoB get there caps out of the station.

Either way its pretty much to late to save Delve

 

[Sharkith]

'Boob' is another word for woman's breast - its one of those things you see in eve a lot. People use nicknames for alliances they fly against. In this sense its poking fun at Bob.

As for Bob - they did break out and from scrapheap challenge they did appear to beat GS, PL and TCF in what was a fairly even fight. PL once more having the balls on them to bring 7 titans to the table. On the one hand playing with titans in such numbers is extremely lame but on the other it does show PL have a lot of guts.

So Bob have won - they turned Goons into Bob.

did you expect anything else? SOMEONE has to take their place now when BoB is dead, i mean, we cant have this game and not have a M0o/CA/BoB/etc to whine at.
