Seems I cant post in CAOD because I am NPCed for the moment.
My last log-on was late Jan 2008. Took a year's break because of work. Just came back yesterday. The influence map has changed quite a bit. Politics are one of the most interesting part of EVE, so I am curious as to what I have missed.
I was in The Graduates in BRUCE at the time. I went back and found a thread or two on what happened there, but I have many other questions: So, PL kick BRUCE out of Fountain? I dont see TRI anymore - what happened? What happened to Roadkill/Smashkill? Where are the Tortuga entities? BOB still alive and kicking? Did the Goon/RA alliance fall apart, turn on itself, spawn beautiful love children? What the hell happened in the East? I dont recognize any of those new folks. What are the current major powerblocs/wars? And if anyone knows, is EUNI still alive and kicking?
Thanks in advance for the replys, and inevitble trolls (which are just as entertaining as the truth).

Yes PL kicked BRUCE out of Fountain. There were a number of factors that sped up the process, BRUCE leadership burned out, PL hacked our forums, etc., but in the end they probably would have kicked us out anyway. |

i find myself in the same position as you Hrett. Been gone since last spring, and need to catch up.
Can someone list the main powerblocks for us pls?
What made me come back? New sever technology and hopefully less lag because of it. And i saw 2008's fanfest vids on youtube |

Edited by: Scatim Helicon on 15/01/2009 22:44:49 PL kicked BRUCE out of Fountain, and BRUCE promptly fell apart.
Tri broke up due to drama, reformed, broke up again. A bunch of Tri refugee corps ended up in ATLAS (lol)
SMASH and Roadkill got booted out of Geminate by Goonswarm. A bunch of their members joined ATLAS (seeing a pattern here?)
Tortuga ... *MC died because they were terrible and successfully alienated both sides of the war, some of their member corps briefly joined some hilariously dreadful trainwreck of an alliance called Requiem, BDCI are now back to their rightful status as BoB subordinates and the other ex-member corps are doing other stuff. *Outbreak and Evoke went back to doing what they did before (in Evoke's case, failing to take space off perceived weak targets, and exploiting moon-duping bugs). *KIA and Daisho moved into Geminate after SMASH and Roadkill got booted out, Daisho then self destructed after getting a titan pilot banned for RMT. *Was there another Tortuga alliance in the mix at some point? I lose track.
BoB survived, built a million Titans and another million outposts and filled their ranks with more ex-RISE, MC and YouWhat refugees. They then invaded the North, beat up some smaller residents then got stomped on by the rest of the North. Shrike lost 2 titans in a week, a couple of motherships and 100 or so caps went down too.
Goonswarm are still in one piece, somehow.
RA splintered into RA, Solar Wing and XDeathX, and then splintered again into RA and Red.OverLord (nync and his band of complex farmers). Goonswarm is still friends with RA and the drone Region russians, but are fighting R.OL and AAA.
Current Big Fight is AAA+co, Stain Empire+co and GBC on one side vs our South Eastern bloc and the guys from the North. Fighting is mostly is Curse, Detorid, Wicked Creek, Feythabolis, Catch and Esoteria. Some elements of the GBC are also doing stuff against PL in Fountain.
No idea who EUNI are/were, sorry. -----------

Thanks Scatium. Exactly what I was looking for. And from a Goon no less!
And just so you know, EUNI is EvE University. A corp that teaches noobs to the game (including myself) the basics. Great bunch of folks.
The Graduates were/are a Corp of EUNI graduates at the core.
Thanks again.

I'm not the goon but...
They fell apart, leaving the Reckoning in charge of XZ etc in Cloud Ring, one or two corps joined Recon. Didn't last long though, Bruce shifted them out, iirc shortly after the OP went Awol. -----------------------------

B.L.A.C.K. (periods added to "look cool" - it has no meaning) has some ex-IAC corps, two of which were active pvp corps. Mix of others in there.
They're living in Curse helping GS/NC/Drone v. GBC/AAA in hopes of being given Catch when/if -A- are defeated. Is it possible? No opinion, other than I can't see a minor player keeping good moons. |
