Comic Con is only days out now and I think I'm not gonna be able to pull off the cosplay I was planning on. I ordered a few shirts from Under Armour and several custom patches online and I received two emails from each apologising that there were severe delays in shipping for both companies.

Bogus man, bogus...
Time for Plan B: Iwatobi swimming club member? :P
I considered it, believe me. But I'd have to shave the goatee, and that'd be a crime!

Evil twin of an Iwatobi swimming club member? :P

OT: 98% sure I'm going to have to push back the date on my next (and hopefully final) smut epic, because I'm just getting straight-up murdered by prose. So I'm having trouble delivering, on a hobby I have no obligation to anyone on. How's that for a first world problem? :grin:

Aye, it's my capsuleer. No small part of the efforts I exert towards shaping my real life appearance is directed at appearing as I do in EVE. The other not so small part is derived from my jealousy of the physique of the gentlemen from Free! Iwatobi Swim Club...

Heh, I recently redownloaded the game following the introduction of Free2Play - Only to find out that my capsuleer can't use her main ship due to Alpha Clone limitations

Hm? What were you trying to pilot? You should be able to eventually fly anything up through a cruiser within your race and I think the Venture for mining ops. If you were thinking you were gonna get to fly capitals and the like, then yeah, not happening. I've been playing for years and I've barely gotten to one dreadnaught for one race lol.

I have a Hurricane class battlecruiser as my main ship, a Thrasher class destroyer I kept from earlier after my first Hurricane got destroyed as well as a Primae class industrial transport

I already had that account from when I played EVE for a few months, years ago

Well, it was my own damn fault really. Kept scouring asteroid fields for hours to grab other peoples loot, until some guy in a decked out cruiser showed up. I had no chance against that ship, even though mine was one class higher, and he also had a damned warp disruptor.

Making yourself a suspect and pissing on people in a BC without a PvP ready fit? Yup, you were asking for it.

As for class disparity, s'why I like the game. If you know what you're doing and have the skills to pull it off, you can make miracles happen. Destroyers taking on Battleships solo and winning? A more beautiful sight nary has been seen.

My loadouts mostly boil down to filling up the high slots with the largest autocannons I can fit and then putting armor and shield reinforcments in mid and low along with whatever I currently have lying around. And I've never used the rigging slots on any of my ships so far because I have no friggin clue about those.

(TBH I never played EVE a lot. it sure is interesting, but the amount of grinding is just abysmal)

And I don't PvP unless forced, in any MMO. Also I always ride solo and don't join any guilds/clans/whatever it's called

:mrgrin: :mrgrin: :mrgrin:

What a beautiful disaster of an EVE ideology. Literally every word of that entire statement goes against common practice for a good EVE experience. And I love that for some sadistic reason. (Probably because I too was once afraid of such daunting ideas as rigging)

If it makes you feel any better, I believe I may hold the record for most expensive non-plex related and unintentional loss of a Rifter at about 63million isk and 100% lost. To an NPC no less. For the non-initiated, that's about 300 times more expensive than the base cost of the ship. I giggle every time I go back to that killmail.

63 million for a Rifter? dafuq? Losing my Hurricane was less expensive

If you think that's bad, I just lost a T3 Dessie for 170million just a few weeks ago in a DED site. I love making pretty little killmails of myself to giggle at.

I had some excess liquid isk and wanted to see how far I could get a pimped out Rifter in a L4 Burner mission. Not very far unfortunately.

I made it back pretty quick though. Currently sitting on about 15billon of asset investments and another 3billion in liquid isk.

Space Rich baby.

I have bad RAM in my computer. Looks like both sticks are bad, sadly. Gonna cost at least $60 to replace this stuff.
