Conga Line at the Incursion Rally Point
by Angus McDecoy on Dec.11, 2010, under Filthy RolePlayer
Hey everybody. Angus here.
As some of you may know, I’ve been taking up the art of combat photography in EVE recently. Mostly that means I show up to fleet fights completely unarmed with my graphics set to 11.
Most times, it’s all excitement and really awesome shots.
Sometimes, it’s hurry up and wait. You should never leave a group of capsuleers to their own devices for too long.
I didn’t figure most of what follows was worth submitting to EON, ihavereturned.com or any of those ‘reputable’ news sources, so here you are, just for laughs with special thanks to the FCORD Anti Sansha fleet:
By the way, hey Ghost Hunter, let me know next time you Nation boys fleet up. I’m curious how the other half bides its time.
 Earlybirds align to a potential target |
 I dunno. It just looked cool. |
 We begin practicing formations. |
 Cheater! |
 A pattern emerges... |
 Fairly long, I'd say. |
 Hey boss... you sure Sansha's this way? |
 Dip! |
 This SoE station is safe tonight. |
 Don't we just look all brave. |
 Angelo427 blazed the trail. |
 Because Resistance is Less Entertaining. |
 We tried to recapture the magic... but didn't. |
 We were all set, except there were no enemies. |
 Come on, guys... IReallyHaveToPee! |
 Hey Sansha. Seriously? Hurry up already. |
 We waited so long, we did it twice. |
 It was a fairly decent line. |
 We just went home again. |
 The fleet had an emergency huddle. |
 Dogpile on the photographer... |
 And then we went mining. wtf? |
 We decided the rock was an alt-spy for Nation. |
 The first Nightmare all day wasn't even Nation. |
 We decided to swarm him in shuttles... |
 ...and blew ourselves up IN HIS FACE! |
 Then things just really weird. |

Retrospectively, the bit where we swarmed Sansha will probably be used as a visual analogy by the Nation supporters out there.
Geeze if that wasn’t a -wholly- unproductive day.

Damn skippy.
Also, for those with an interest in keeping up with Nation activities, I’ve been turned onto icanhazreturned.com
Wait, that’s not it…
ihavereturned.com That’s the one. Basically, it’s an ‘officially unofficial’ viral site for gathering information on the live events related to Sansha’s Nation. IHR is aimed mostly at the resistance forces, so if you fancy spikey rusted implants, it might rub you the wrong way. Still, it regularly features cryptic bits of information relating to upcoming events, which everyone then goes nuts trying to translate.
And there’s a pretty, pretty image gallery with not-goofy pictures.
