The Captains Log 30/9

 

Righteous Fury

Now that I have had a little taste for suicide ganking I decided to try it out some more. So I sent out Epimithius09 in his trusty mining Navitas to locate a nice target in a belt somewhere. I found one Hulk that had fitted two Gisti B-Type Small Shield Boosters; however I wouldn’t be able to take it on by myself so I left it alone. I then came across a mining op in progress consisting of two Hulks, a Retriever and an Orca. Scanning the Hulks revealed they did not have a tank so I should be able to gank them. So I parked Epimithius09 next to a hulk and proceeded to mine some Veldspar.

So there I was happily mining some Veldspar while I got Prometheus09 ready to suicide gank one of them, when all of a sudden a Tristan, flown by Moonfluff, warps in next to me. He proceeded to bump me around a little and then he can flipped me. Now what the hell is wrong with the universe when I get can flipped while trying to suicide gank someone? Well I couldn’t let this insult slide past so I fitted my suicide gank Vexor for frigate killing (badly fitted I might add, Epitmithius09 has terrible skills). I warped back to the belt where Moonfluff was flying around my can and proceeded to engage him. I managed to knock him down into structure before he managed to get out of point range (I did have a MWD but I ran out of Cap) and warp off. He then left the following messages in local, while comfortably docked up in station.

Moonfluff > `hahahahaha

Moonfluff > that was the biggest can flip beating i have ever seen hahaha

MouthofEternity > ?

Quickload > There was a guy that tried a cap flip trick. And failed badly

MouthofEternity > ah

Quickload > cap = can*

MouthofEternity > figured that was what you meant

draycot > i see thiarer doesnt change

Quickload > vexor vs silly frigat … he got me pointed and still i manage to escape hahaha

Well this is just adding insult onto injury and made me all the more determined to get revenge. It was at this time when Daquris logged on and I began to explain to him what happened. While going over the chat logs though I noticed something, Quickload was speaking for Moonfluff. This could mean only one thing: Moonfluff was Quickload. To make things even better Quickload was flying the Retriever in the mining fleet I was scouting out before. Well if I needed anymore reason to suicide gank that fleet I had just go it.

So Daquris and I warped into the belt with the mining fleet and proceeded to lock up one of the hulks. He wasn’t the guy that can flipped me but he was in the same corp and he was flying a more expensive ship. The Hulks armour and shields peeled right off the structure like banana skin of a banana, laying bare its delicate insides, which were quickly smashed to pieces.

Daquaris > HULKOMANIA IS RUNNIN WILD BROTHER

Prometheus09 > that poor poor hulk

Prometheus09 > I hope it is in hulk heaven

Prometheus09 > I guess that’s what happens to can flippers

GOSMIC > i dint flip,,,

Prometheus09 > your friend did

Prometheus09 > your ship was worth more

Prometheus09 > should spank him for bad behaviour

Moonfluff > hahah you guys are nubs

Moonfluff > I was the one that can fliped hahahah

Moonfluff > they just watched

Moonfluff > where not even in my fleet or anything

Epimithius09 > moofluff = quicload who was mining in the same fleet

Moonfluff > no

Moonfluff > lol

GOSMIC > u supid….

Epimithius09 > Quickload > vexor vs silly frigat … he got me pointed and still i manage to escape hahaha

Moonfluff > that was Moonfluff tho

 

Unholy Rage

Well after that encounter we decided to gank someone else, and now that there was two off us I felt we could take out that Hulk, flown by Jessy Parker, that had the two Gisti B-Type Small Shield Boosters. However, while we were tracking him down Daquirs had to leave. Not to be deterred I enlisted Die1 to the cause. Once we tracked down what belt he was in we warped to him ready to acquire some tasty loot. Jessy though had other ideas. While we had warped to 0 he had warped to bookmark and was 20km out for us. As soon as we arrived he warped out to a safespot and then back to the station where he docked up and then undocked and warped back the belt again. We followed him once more but he warped out again as soon as we landed. We continued this little dance for a little bit until we realised that his regular clockwork like movements meant only one thing: He was a macro miner. At this realisation all compassion I might have felt for him flew out the view port into the vacuum of space. This guy had to die no matter what. So instead of following him around after he left the belt we waited at the bookmark he warped to. Sure enough that’s where he landed when he warped back in, only this time he wouldn’t be warping back out.

Our ammunition lanced across the void slamming into Jessy’s hulk. Our damage though was being repaired by those damn shield boosters quite well. Sweat began to bead across my forward as I realised that we might not be able to kill him. We were half way through armour when concord arrived and proceed to jam my ship. I sat back in bitter disappointment, this macro miner was going to live another day. Then to my amazement my screen lit up in beautiful explosion. It took me a moment to comprehend that it was the hulk and not my Vexor. We had done it and to make it even better he dropped one of the boosters. So whoever says suicide gankers are the scum of the universe, just remember this, we are doing everyone a favour and killing all those macro miners.
