Bizarre night. Johnny perked up and said he'd convinced some guy that he was a part of The Hatchery and that we were a merc corp and we'd battle his enemies for money. This is the kind of thing that happens all the time with Johnny but most the time we didn't even know about it because he manages to close the deal without even talking to us or actually getting anyone in The Hatchery to vouch for him (actually pretty impressive cause the toon he uses for it has no Hatchery affiliation or history). Anyway, I was asked to vouch for us being a merc corp etc, despite the complete lack of past contracts or advertising or anything. I did so and he negotiated a deal. Unfortunately he didn't want to pay up front and instead offered to pay half after first blood.

Normally I'd just give up but the guys he wanted us to kill were really bad and really local. We quickly got a roam up to cruise on down and grab a kill. Oddly enough he wanted to come with me which was a bit weird. I explained that as a corp we have a way of doing things and he wouldn't really fit in with us roaming on down. He then said "ah, but I have a carrier, maybe some reps would help you win the battles". Still wanting to finish the scam I didn't have the heart to go "you want to come on our roam... in your carrier??? and you expect me to bring you because you're so good at eve you have a carrier...".

Anyway, we cruised on down and sniped this to get the first payment of our contract.

I split it 50-50 with Johnny and our work there was done.

However we noticed another gang of them nearby and thought we might as well hit it. It went decently well although Body fucked up pointing shit, first claiming that he wasn't pointing the target (it warped off) because he was pointing some other guy and then falling silent as the other guy also warped.

Then we got the guy to cyno his carrier to us and we tried to ransom it but he SDed. A good night's work.

Seems like that might marginally endanger Johnny's scheme?

Hi all,

I recently re-subbed to EvE after a 2-years break. I used to be part of a 0.0 alliance so I joined back with them. But, I'd also like to pew pew alongside TL members. Would you guys accept a pvp alt in your corp or mains only?

The more the merrier, if you ask me.

I have yet to overthrow Kwark, though.

I'd imagine it would depend on which. If you're rejoining the elite pvp~~ of MoA you might have some trouble getting into 9Pool alongside that.

Also listening to you guys trying to get a cyno was so fun.

Warri don't you notice a scheme here? You don't even need a watch. When people call for roam in GA it's _always_ around 2am our time. Just logoffski at 1:45am and you get some sleep...

Why do you think it's been weeks since I last went on a roam.
