Because 75% of the active players joined Stimulus.
see you all in syndicate.
edit: since there's not a lot of better places to put a brief message, I have nothing really against CVA. The USTZ is a bit weak (and could use some new leadership) in total participation, but the alliance CVA itself is pretty good. I finally got tired of "herding cats" around though, despite the solid number of decent pilots.

I tried to be cool and all I got was a lousy warning about my sig being too big.
Can I join your marvelous organization?
Also big up m8s
TMA catching supercaps.
FAKDEEDIT: ilu really tyrus, gl
Tyrus (and his fellow Demoser) are, IMO, some of the coolest guys to play with, and fly with/for, in EVE.
It's guys like him that inevitably get me past any short term frustrations I have with CVA and make me come back to EVE.
I highly recommend checking out he opportunity should you get the chance.
Onlt drawback, you may end up in a fleet with me once in a while.....sorry in advance.

Bumping myself as we're still recruiting and have some stories to tell as far as what joining us might entail:
Last night (0133-0433 server) my night from 0133 - 0433 server time:
First loss was a maled: a lone ranis entered providence and I volunteered to 1v1 the ranis. TBH I lost, sad, but hey.
I then found another solo hostile in providence, offered another 1v1, and won with a harpy vs. a jaguar.
TBH there were, at this point, a bunch of blue fleets in near provi, so myself and a corpmate teamed up to go to Catch.
On our way out, a group of 3 reds from earlier in the night came back to provi on our route. We engaged omen/bb/drake with brutix/cane, I was jammed immediately of course, but since we jumped in separately the cane was able to start taking him down, jam missed, BB down, hostiles tackled: a couple more blues from intel channel warp in. Omen and drake down in short order.
Killcount: Jaguar, Omen, Blackbird, Drake
LossCount: Maled
We proceeded to Catch and engaged LEGIO. We engaged early and nailed a harpy and maled before being forced off the field by a blob with fighter support. We played aggro games but the size of the response fleet deterred us. With 3-4 more, we could have reasonably picked off nearly their whole fleet.
Killcount: +maled + harpy
We trolled through catch after evading LEGIO... we finally encountered a Demolition Dog fleet of Loki+Drake+Incursis+Crow. Cane (my wingman) was tackled, and brutix (me) barely missed scram on loki, who backed off. Cane died bringing down the incursis and crow as the loki webbed him and drake finished him off
Killcount + incursis and + crow
Losscount + cane
Cane pilot reshipped and we withdrew to HED, backing up a blue harassment fleet. Blue fleet was hanging back so my brutix jumped in to HED. Out of hostile curse/drake/cane/pilgrim, a hostile pilgrim came in to range of the on-gate static bubble, at which point we requested backup from blue fleet and downed the pilgrim. We withdrew to rep and drop loot.
Killcount +pilgrim
We returned to HED... my slicer scout corpmate ID'd several reds.... and then a falcon warped to gate, which was deterring us. However, i jumped the brutix back in since there was no immediate threat. A maelstrom landed. Since blue fleet was still nearby, we determined that mael was arty fit and engaged... en route i accidently decloaked falcon and screamed for blue backup, given that 2 more RED battlecruisers had landed 300km off gate but on grid. Blues engaged and killed falcon and corpmate maintained tackle on maelstrom.... who was unable to track my BC at close range, and soon died as well.
Killcount +mael +falcon.
Blue fleet disengaged and retreated at this point. I warped to outgate (Keberz)... intentionally landing in the outgate bubble. A hostile drake took this as a sign of idiocy, engaged, and promptly got owned by brutix+slicer... i didn't even leave shields
Killcount + drake
Hostile curse,cerb, and drake started toying with us.... curse was a huge problem, so we played range games for a few minutes, forced to not engage (with 1-2 more we could have taken them immediately).... luckily for us, curse docked and logged... so slicer pulled a brilliant run and got a warpin on the cerberus on a flyby. Brutix landed, overheated, ruined cerb, and rolled on through before drake managed to get a tackle.
Killcount + cerb
Throughout the night was a closerunning fleet of corpmates assisted by blue intel channels (with a bit of frustration early in providence avoiding some blue blobs) and something we want to expand on in the near future. We reshipped, rolled flexible engagement strategies, and had smart ideas about how to split and kill hostile campers.
Sound fun?
this is NRDS

Confirming I won the 1v1 against Tyrus. It was gf
So talked to you in teamminmatar the other day. http://eveboard.com/pilot/Varcaus http://eve-kill.net/?a=pilot_detail&plt_id=725338 if you didnt mind a bad that can bring a boosting tengu (with all but info maxed + mindlinks if wanted) id be happy to join. yes can get plently of recons exploded if you need someone to fly them.
We'll take bads as long as they show up in the right ships, learn decently, and want to PvP.
Mostly what we're trying to avoid is getting people in who don't fly recons and the like because it's "too expensive" to keep them on hand, or who straight up don't have enough SP to contribute to a fleet.
Jump in the public channel "cjevepublic" (or evemail/convo me) so we can talk a little further. I've been on baby duty and business trips since Wednesday-ish but I should be back online regularly starting Monday.

So we let Varcaus in because we're clearly terrible, and took him out on an inaugural roam.
We were just about hitting critical mass to do a CJEVE only roam, but naturally we hit a larger gang within a few jumps. Of course, the supposed intention of the OP was to get me to suicide the entire corp simultaneously, but Demoser claimed best ops were where nobody but me died....
The night started skirmishing 4v9 on a station... we were hoping to kill their bait and warp but the fight dragged in and out and after being variously being forced to warp out as their reinforcements arrive the skirmish ended as we docked. As we considered our options, the hostiles announced we were pussies in local (assuming we had roughly 4 times our actual strength available to fight them :X)... we opened the fleet up a bit, evened the odds, and pursued, only to withdraw quickly as they dropped a carrier on us. Fortunately, they pursued through 2 jumps, where our augmented fleet of 9 forced a cynabal off and then caught and killed an SFI. Hostiles withdrew temporarily to regroup and we continued on our earlier semi-suicide mission.
Killcount: +SFI
Entering HED, we did some tactical warping, and eventually decided to engage on slightly lopsided odds against the hostile camp. We successfully split their gang by using their own warp bubbles against them: by bouncing between Keberz and SV5 gate we were able to get a few to fight close against our combined force. Unfortunately Sabres are not highly resilient.... and there WERE quite a few of them... we came out minus a sabre and harbinger and killed a drake and binger....
Killcount: +Harbinger, +Drake
Losscount: -Sabre, -Harbinger.
Unsatisfied but with several of us having warped out in armor (in shield fleet), I sent Varcaus (who apparently had never flown a cloak recon before) to camp HED while we repped and reshipped slightly. Varcaus arranged a warpin on one of their sniping Tier3s... and in a perfectly executed maneuver, we returned to HED, Varcaus tackled, and we easily knocked out an oracle from the camp at no danger to ourselves.
Killcount: +Oracle.
We moved deeper in to catch hoping to find LEGIO, but they had cross-jumped us (while we were dicking around in HED) to get in to providence at 22 strong. Their sole representative in Catch was a vagabond... who quickly docked, and a nidhoggur. We stalemated a small goon fleet a couple jumps from LEGIO main systems, but as neither side wanted to engage, we went to harass the carrier. He deployed fighters, of which many died, before finally turtling on station. Satisfied we had annoyed him a bit, and getting intel from Goons that LEGIO main force was indeed heading towards provi, we started back.
Goons camped the gate with part of their force. Falcon + Sabre + Daredevil + 2x Tornado confronted our 8 man fleet on the way out, with falcon being the obvious primary. We took down the falcon but on my way out of the bubble I lost my Naga (Tyrus died, therefore OP SUCCESS!), and then warped out of the bubble to safety.
Killcount: +Falcon
Losscount: -Naga
We headed back towards Provi... we were camped in by LEGIO but lost nothing despite their probing. I managed to sneak my pod out, returned in vigilant, and baited out their only ceptor:
Killcount: +Maled
Losscount: -Time wasted waiting for the dipshits to move on.
All in all a successful introduction to the corp for Varcaus, who (sadly) did not lose his recon during the Op.

Was fun \o/. Just lost the Arazu though so all is not lost.
EDIT: No no no that was that first time in any recon :P

to be fair he lost his arazu in return for us killing scimi+drake+tornado. Overall fight was:Was fun \o/. Just lost the Arazu though so all is not lost.
EDIT: No no no that was that first time in any recon :P
killcount: Scimi, tornado, drake
Losscount: arazu, stiletto
so we came out ahead. Tonight we also had a ceptor pilot do a hero charge on a naga from 160km, tackle, and we got the kill on him (also in HED)
edit: plus a scrubby kill of an apoc who took some easy bait

Had fun against you guys last night. You caught us off guard just as we reapproached the gate, but props for sending the blob away to fight us in a fair fight.
just had a decent fight against a few of these guys
put up a damn good fight (i almost died twice - in hull both times lol)
props =) btw join this corp us reds needs more willing people to fight
We're having decent success with our recruiting drive so soon we might have a real corp!
We've recently acquired some targets to mess with, looking forward to moving a bit offensively, in a small/roaming/BOPS way.
Still recruiting as in the OP; prefer decent players with good SP who just want to get in to a bit of a different mindset. We're active, shoot things on a daily basis, and have plenty of both defensive and roaming targets.

now that is one timezone i like
Should join us Entrox its lotta fun.
Yeah you can help Varcaus ragequit again next time his microphone breaks :P
Also after starting the night out right with a couple of near-solo Cynabal kills (hi Varcaus' thrasher!) we ended up welping a small (4guard+7BS+2recon) fleet against a 30+fleet of LEGIO in y-mpwl. We went in outnumbered and gave a good account for ourselves but our 4 guardians had a couple of unfamiliar pilots and there was at least one episode of being jammed by the ever-present ECM drones. I was originally afraid they wouldnt engage, not realizing just how big their fleet was. In retrospect, 1 more hellcat and 1 more guardian would have easily won us the fight, even accounting for hyrdrara running down our 2 recons and killing them to fuck with out fleet.
In any case the fight was fun and we went in outnumbered for glory!

Chasing after reds and failing
Dieing in recons (it was the fucking falcon I swear)
Bagging a cyna
Welp
Lots of fights all the time. Come for sone awesome pvp
Oh yeah to clarify our earlier adventures, I was on for maybe 2-3 hours total.
Started chasing a cynabal immediately, and theorycrafting the minimum number of people needed to kill the roaming solo mach+loki combination. I caught the first cynabal, who decided it'd be a championship idea to engage a brutix at zero on a gate... he died of course.
On my way back to reship to kill the mach varcaus got a warpin on a vagabond+falcon combo, but when I tried to warp to varcaus i somehow ended up in a fucking drag bubble in the middle of nowhere, so of course he died hilariously.
We then proceeded to chase down 2x Cyna / Stiletto... jumped in on them, i tackled one of the cynabals, figured we'd trade thrasher+ 'tix for 1 cynabal.... They proceed to blow up Varcaus (again) in his thrasher... I kill first cynabal, second cynabal fucks off and disengages.
THEN we formed up the hellcat fleet, and promptly welped it horribly because we were jussstttt barreellllyyyy too outnumbered. Also Varcaus got my rapier exploded. In retrospect the bait prophecy of doom would have been a better idea.
