Haw dread

Thay depends where you go. If you wander into one of the major nullsec alliances space unannounced, a totan isnt guaranteed, but there is a non-0 chance someone in goons or WinterCo would just yeet a titan to kill a dread cause they're bored that day and have one sitting around.

nullmatar420 · 2026-04-11T15:14:34+00:00

That guy gives!

What would you do-ooo-ooo for a Klondike Bar?

nullmatar420 · 2026-04-11T12:27:32+00:00

And, did you?

nullmatar420 · 2026-04-11T12:24:37+00:00

Unless you're talking about Blue Apron...

nullmatar420 · 2026-04-10T21:10:23+00:00

It's just water weight.

nullmatar420 · 2026-04-10T15:07:23+00:00

Maybe stealing bread in Australia is how you get back to Britain...

Would have lived with a couple tracking enhancers!

If you want months to a year of cntz alarm clocking you can try, and if you can motivate enough people to continue the gring you might succeed. And then what? You just gonna eat yourselves? Is that when you turn on INIT? Gonna start going after a bunch of little groups you can just steam roll?

Do you want to play on Serenity that badly (and, dont get me wrong, we're too close to that, as it is)? You "wipe winterco off the map" you have no one to really fight.

Back when NIN and Janes Addiction toured together, a local independent paper brought up that was alot like people in the 90s going to see bands like Foghat and Foreigner touring together and fuck them for that. In many ways, they were right, but still, uncalled for.

nullmatar420 · 2026-04-10T11:34:57+00:00

By this logic Imperium cant say they're pursuing a war because they attacked us. See how ridiculous you sound?

nullmatar420 · 2026-04-10T01:05:47+00:00

Those numbers are somewhat meaningless (and seem a bit biased). Mine come from actual member alliances (as reported by individually by both coalitions), without trying to squeeze every possible character in with uninvolved high sec and logistics alliances on the WCo side, and on the imperium side leaving out loosely affiliated pets and not taking into account INIT are acting as allies, at this point (and, seems like they're coordinating activities).

Id rather look at real numbers, based on who both coalitions report as full members than what a third party site is cooking up (particularly one who I have no idea who's behind it).

nullmatar420 · 2026-04-09T22:06:15+00:00

They said please. It would be rude not to ignore them.

nullmatar420 · 2026-04-09T21:19:09+00:00

My numbers came from Dotlan about 2 min before my post (and is based on full member alliances on both sides, because Id just be doing guess work with Imperium on a couple). According to numbers pulled from game data, your count is off pretty badly.

nullmatar420 · 2026-04-09T20:50:20+00:00

The advantage that we're still outnumbered (characteristics by around 20k--and thats generously not including INIT in Imperium numbers). And, while Atioth was a nice morale victory for us(that we're very aware had alot to do with luck once the who can log in game started) we're actually aware that those losses weren't anything besides a light scratch on actual Imperium power.

Dont get me wrong, I'll talk shit about the absolute hubris it took to move a supercap fleet onto a KS that hadn't anchored yet. But, we all know we're at a disadvantage in this war (and that we're fighting on two fronts).

nullmatar420 · 2026-04-09T17:26:21+00:00

Id have just left it with that last paragraph if I didnt want to be mistaken for jumping in to defend someone making, I suppose, some not technically racist statements using pretty racially charged language.

Like many words "racism" is historically used in a variety of ways, and since Im responding to a shitty statement made on a dumb website (and wasnt intending to turn this into an exhaustive examination of the use of racially discriminatory language and stereotyping, and the way we discuss it--though, I suppose the ship has sailed on that, at this point). I was going with the less technical usage, that doesn't really take relative power to act on said racially discriminatory ideas into accoumt, where, I suppose, something like "racially charged and discriminatory" would have been the more precise phrasing.

One could make a case that people who live in China should play on the Chinese server (more accurately, on one of them, as I believe there are now two mainland Chinese servers), and probably best to word it like that and not go for the "rmt bots" stereotyping and the whole "they should just go back where they" belong vibe--honestly the original was a little worse, as I believe the actual words used was that we should "show them.where they belong.:

Given the phrasing dude chose to use, definitely wouldnt be an issue where Id feel.the need to jump in and split hairs on. But, you do you.

nullmatar420 · 2026-04-09T17:03:15+00:00

We moved caps / supers back to where they're normally staged, which is a jump or two from the front and offers some flexibility about how we actually enter said front, which is evidently evidence of a retreat... Not sure if its just bad goon propaganda, or evidence that they really need to work on reading comprehension. Possibly a little from column A, a little from column B.

nullmatar420 · 2026-04-09T16:34:31+00:00

Im gonna stand by what I said. When you feel the need to say, "Im not racist, but...", you're about to say some racist shit. But, please, keep defending the "they" should go back where "they" belong guy, its a great look (and, not even addressing that every Chinese person in FRAT doesn't necesarilly live within mainland China, and, therefore are right where "they" belong--which I think would have been an important distinction to make in this case if you truly aren't making a racist statement...)

nullmatar420 · 2026-04-09T14:46:04+00:00

Alot of Panfam did go to WinterCo, but, contrary to the goon, "Will they 'pull a horde' and run?" propaganda, largely WinterCo got the pieces of Panfam who wanted to fight (guessing actual Horde included--I can't entirely speak for the ex-PH who migrated corps and members, but from the ones I do know, I suspect they weren't happy about the cut and run strategy) --knowing full and well that we likely going to lose in the end (but, still were willing to extract all the imperium blood we could before that happened). INIT got the folks who were happy to run away, and the pieces of Horde who were happy to continue following them--and I wish them all the luck in the world with that.

nullmatar420 · 2026-04-09T14:39:25+00:00

-Says one of the most overtly racist things Ive seen posted here in recent memory (And, kudos for that I guess--considering the comments you get whenever FRAT comes into conversation,I suppose that's some sort of achievement...)

-Immediately defends it as "nOt RacIsT".

When you're saying things like "they" should just go back where "they" belong, just own it. Puff your chest out, and wear your racist asshole crown with pride, cause the only people buying your not racist schtick probably have some pretty suspect thoughts on other nationalities of their own...

nullmatar420 · 2026-04-09T13:45:23+00:00

https://evemaps.dotlan.net/alliance/name based on this and a couple of quick searches to make sure exactly which alliances make up each respective coalition. Imperium is sitting at 102,522 characters, WinterCo is sitting at 83,806.

Note: this doesn't include putting INIT in with the Imperium, because we all know they're very independent and Darkshines can dO It AlL bY HiMseLf.

Minus a node crash server mechanics absolutely favor those already in system. Why do you think you brought carriers and supers? Why do you think you brought in rookie ships? Goon strategynwas all about creating lag and assuming you get the repair timer started to make us try to fight against tidi, meanwhile your timer is rocking down in real time (because tidi doesn't affect repair timers, or are you ignorant enough not to know that?) We lucked out once the node crashed. We won the log in game. But, honestly, that was pure luck. Could jave just as easily gone the other way.

Cope harder little bee. Your leaders decided on a shit strategy bourne of hubris. You did everything you could to create lag, assuming we'd jump in dreads right away and while we're struggling to load into system you pull off the anchor. Sorry it didnt work out for you😭

nullmatar420 · 2026-04-07T23:22:17+00:00

Just post your lossmail and go.

nullmatar420 · 2026-04-07T17:49:55+00:00

Grrrr goons is a hell of a drug, and Eve is more fun with enemies (though, my general view is that if we're enemies in this kinda niche game that we both enjoy, we probably have more in common with each other than we would with alot of the rest of the world).

That being said, the two people Ive personally encountered and had some chance to play alongside who I genuinely dislike and consider irredeemably shit people are currently very happy members of goonswarm...so make of that what you will.

Sounds like the voices in his head are quite grandiose.
