So yes my adoring fans, I will finally update my blog.
We did have a few encounters worth a mention, will start with the oldest.
Day 10:
Rustles, being the social guy he is, abandoned us this day for a drunken day. W00t. With rustles being unavailable I didn’t expect much to happen much since i won’t usually go it alone. Today was fairly inactive from what I was on, changing skills and such during my breaks in work. When i return from work i hear Dawood is online, so I log in and see what he’s up too.
He’s harassing battleships in a wolf shock horror! I call him crazy and try to save him before he’s dead. I’m 2 jumps out and race towards Ghesis in my slow assed rupture. He said he’s moved into scram the battle cruiser, which he said is a Myrmidon, crazy fool. Frigates vs. that is a no-no!
I’m about to enter system when he tells me to hurry, “yeah yeah, I’m jumping in now”. I warp to Dawood expecting to see a wolf in flames, but no, he’s still got his armour, go him. I lick the myrmidon and scram, drone, web and gun him as much as we can.
The wolf can’t hold up to this abuse much longer and goes pop, leaving me vs. the myrmidon and a newly emerged drake. Was only a matter of time before they came out I suppose. I kiss my Rupture good-bye and repeat the cycles on the myrmidon, hoping for a miracle. Nothing unexpected happened; I went pop with a few percent left on the myrmidons armour. I is a sads :(
We went to get more ships, i went scout this time and headed back. we arrived at their own system now, and i jump through, i am chased out by a drake. We wait by the gate to see who pops through. Mental as the tackle pops his head in. we get bored so before logging for the night i rushed mental hoping to get a kill before his corps jump through. No such luck. He burns away from me faster than i can catch him, which is followed by a scam and web by the battleship fleet which just landed on top of me. 3 losses today, oh noes! i say to Dawood to cut our loses and he falls back, picking your battles is a good skill to learn.
The losses today was all made better through with the news that Dawood took out a hostile battleship earlier. And so the world balances itself out again.would gladly lose an assault frigate, cruiser and destroyer is we killed a battleship everyday. this put us 30m of the 500m target. Didn't think it would be so quick.
Day 11:
Again work kept me away longer than I would have liked. Why can’t I pay my bills with ISK?!
So, I log on and rustles and Dawood are already roaming about somewhere. We form up and try locating the war targets. We go back and forth a few systems before we finally find one, warp jump. We guess he’s on this way to regroup with mental, as he’s coming from Ghesis towards citadel.
We set a course towards his system using the autopilot. This is where mistake number 1 happened. Our autopilot hiccupped and took us around the system he was coming from, so we had to 180 back on ourselves trying to catch him.
We catch up at Niraja or something. He tried to throw us off abit, and it worked to an extent, we didn’t know where he was going, but we knew it wasn’t to a gate. we have eyes on all gates now and see where hes heading. Back to ghesis we assume. We scramble back there as fast as we can. When we arrive no one was in system. Well, no reds.
We head back towards citadel and we meet mentals fleet he’s coming to meet us with. A few battle cruisers and a tackle ship. We wait patiently on the other side of the gate, rustles keeping point in next system. Rustles shouts they are coming and jumps through, and crashes. Yay.
The fleet jumps through and a teos creed breaks gate cloak. We lock and shoot, few follys and hes dead. 1 tackler down. The Brutix is targeted next, but I can’t shoot that far so I try getting closer. The fleet warps out before i get in range. Half way through this however, rustles logs on and comes back to the battlefield in the middle of all the hostile battle cruisers - Bad timing.
This was the end of the engagements for that day, we roam for a bit, but nothing happened.
So i leave you with this:

| Sailors Rupture |
With time to look at my rupture i noticed its rear end looks a bit like the back of a galley ship, so thought I’d add sails and a steering wheel thing. Looks more like a ship (with afterburners) now.
Tokish.
