    so you aren't going where you have no access to internet for 10 months? great! you might just make the corvette after all...assuming you were pearl farming every day right up until you left

    I currently haz 165 lolnut pearls so I'm assuming I'll make it (considering it's more than a month until the event ends and I need 21 more dailies). I'm not really interested in the Corvette, I'm just getting it in case there's an accolade with it...

    err...the flying high mission only goes for 35 days, and you need 25 days worth of pearls to get the ship, so if you still need 21 more daily runs, you're not going to be able to get it unless you make up the difference with lobi

    Well, you could waste away a few keys. Open some boxes just for the Lobi. Trade in 5 Lobi for a box of lolnut pearls. Keep doing it until that armed cruise ship is yours. Problem solved! :D

    Keys are expensive...

    Also, it seems that I'm only one day behind for the Corvette (if my crappy calculations are correct). It would appear that I left just long enough to not get the Corvette...

    The cooldown is 18 hours. If you got on every 18 hours, you would have enough time.

    So, in other news: A player in EVE Online(aka SPREADSHEETS Online) lost a ship valued at ~USD 9,000. Here is a video of it:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?&v=6E1mL0h6z2I

    And the Forbes Article. YES! This made Forbes!:

    http://www.forbes.com/sites/davidthier/2013/07/09/eve-online-player-loses-a-spaceship-worth-approximately-9000/

    Let me get this straight. In EVE, you buy ships you can LOSE... permanently? And someone paid $9,000 on one of these things?

    Can you imagine the uproar if you had to buy a Scimitar every time you lost it?

    Yes. I mean I'm pretty sure you remember the uproar over the Odyssey and Bortasqu' packs. I imagine having to replace those ships everytime you lost them would cause those people to actually leave the game. I know I certainly would.

    Even more news, I got my army duty postponed for 1 year. I didn't ask for it but apparently a mix of my family's bad financial status (it would be very hard for them to support me over there), the army's bad financial status (it's Greek, 'nuff said) and the fact that I don't look like army material (I am weak and shy irl) made them reconsider if they truly wanted me.

    Who knows, if I go to (the Greek version of) college it will get postponed even more!

    Joy is in order.

    This is said a lot, but it is wrong. It's "WORTH' approx. 9k USD, but he did not spend approx. 9k USD. He got it either via a certain very rare drop in game or buying it with ingame currency. Similar to Lockbox ships and the Lobi Ships.

    Eh, they'll probably invite you and then laugh as they kick you out. If that's possible.

    They are probably doing it to make House of Beautiful Orions mad. HOBO and another fleet are pretty much acting silly because one person sets their price lower than the other.
    Resulting in them fighting.

    that doesn't explain all the people coming away with elite hangar pets...how would they have them if dental/NoP were kicking them off the base as soon as they get on it? no, this actually makes sense, what they're doing...by offering access for free, they're sticking it to HOBO, which i believe they don't have good relations with...but whatever their motivation for doing it, i applaud it, because i feel access to a base shouldn't be sold, especially not in a star trek game

    Well they did grind for it, they have a right to charge for entrance. My position is that if a T5 fleet wants to invite for free, good for them. If they want to charge for it, I don't hold it against them.
    I ask nothing but that you remember me.

    Law? Here?

    Laws are not enforced here mainly because the government has too many hands and each of these hands' fingers don't know what the rest of the fingers (let alone other hands) are doing. It's like a Nautilus (read part where it says it has up to than 90 tentacles) with each tentacle doing something different and none of them are connected to the brain.

    I'm not saying I'm going to bribe anyone, just saying that such things are commonplace and thousands of people take advantage of the inefficiency and laziness or Greek bureaucracy...

    Any case, I'm going to do a test run before I bother gathering an audience, all I have to do is pug it and do my best, and probably get a team that can't be bothered to continue and then I can have at the command ships and develop a unique tactic for dealing with them, doing what you guys did probably won't work so I'll need to experiment for a while on them and test various theories.

    Rumors of my death were slightly exaggerated. I only had a migraine (and it got bad because I wasn't paying attention and let it get too far for the medicine to stop it).

    But I'm feeling better this morning. Hope to get on a little this afternoon.

    You seem to have a lot of migraines.


    I might not be busy for the first time in two weeks later today, so I'll see if I can log on.

    This.

    Also, I got 6 mosquito bites last night. Seriously, this is the first time they have bitten me this summer and they seem to have decided to do it all at once. Damned mosquitoes! (I would have gotten 8 bites but I got tired of staying awake at 4 am trying to kill the last two so I just made my room a mosquito-lethal-spray-chamber and hid under the covers to survive)
