Lowering expectations across the board

Posted on January 25, 2012 by SynCaine

EVE: There will be… wrecks

Posted on January 24, 2012 by SynCaine

Last night we got a little PvP crew together to see what fireworks we could create in the last few hours of our current war-decs. We knew at least one target was active in our home system, and we also … Continue reading →

EVE: Didn’t want that faction ship anyway

Posted on January 20, 2012 by SynCaine

I interrupt the fail-cascade reporting (they haven’t said/done anything embarrassing today, have they?) to talk about an MMO, PvP, and expectations. Last night was INQ-E’s second PvP roam night, and again we had a good turnout. We started off once … Continue reading →

EVE: Down the rabbit hole we go

Posted on January 18, 2012 by SynCaine

Last night I went into wormhole (WH) space for the first, and it was pretty impressive. The thing that hits you immediately is how different the space functions and feels. You don’t see people in local, you don’t see items … Continue reading →

EVE: Pirating and War-Decs

Posted on January 17, 2012 by SynCaine

Last Thursday INQ-E had its first PvP night, and it went great. We put together a balanced fleet of BCs and tacklers, and went into some local low-sec systems to see if we could cause some destruction. We started things … Continue reading →

I’m kind of a big deal

Posted on January 16, 2012 by SynCaine

I often state that I’m kind of a big deal. I usually say it in jest, but for this post I’m being serious. I’m kind of a big deal. Some facts (since those are trending of late). At last count … Continue reading →

Quick update

Posted on January 10, 2012 by SynCaine

Sorry for the lack of posts of late, been under the weather a bit. First a quick note about TW Shogun 2; it’s more fun than I initially though. Once I figured most of the systems out, and got the … Continue reading →

EVE: The story behind the killmail

Posted on January 5, 2012 by SynCaine

Yesterday I posted my first-ever EVE killmail. Here is how it all went down. I logged in and was informed a few Corp members were planning a little convoy into low-sec. Having a bunch of PvP-ready ships just sitting around, … Continue reading →

EVE: PLEX and Power

Posted on January 3, 2012 by SynCaine

On two separate occasions, I’ve been invited to a convo with a corp mate, where said pilot sheepishly admitted to buying PLEX to fund some in-game activity. Both times they were sorta asking for permission / seeing if it was … Continue reading →

EVE: Goals goals goals

Posted on January 3, 2012 by SynCaine

The biggest danger anyone faces in EVE is not suicide ganking, scams, or getting podded. It’s not having a goal. Or multiple goals, both short-term and long. When you run out of goals, or don’t have any that really motivate … Continue reading →
