A slight delay

Alot has been happening lately, with my hunt for war targets becoming more and more successful as the alliance fleets grew in size, it actually was rather disappointing to see the mail announcing their surrender, though i was rather pleased to get back to my trading.

Shortly after the news was heard i decided i would train up for Gallente ships (being a Caldari pilot) and that i would do missions for the federation navy in the hopes of piloting a Navy issue Megathron and eventually a Rattlesnake.

Mission after mission passed as my mind wandered vacantly to how cool a Rattlesnake would be, and unfortunately my absent mind didn't remember to check for war targets (having been less then 24 hours after their surrender) and as i undocked i was locked and popped by a Dramiel.

Losing a frigate is no big deal, your unlikely to lose more then a few mil if one explodes on you, on the other hand you are likely to notice the incredible tracking speed of a Dramiel as it destroys your pod with 60 million in implants. And to top things off we were war decced soon after by a much larger merc alliance, seems someone has a grudge against us.

With that all said, the once wide eyed new capsuleer to the EVE universe has had his spirit crushed in a rather lame glittery explosion, now only having 2 million isk after replacing all my implants it seemed a rather gloomy future.

At least until a corp mate mentioned that he had found a worm hole in which we could escape the new war dec and live in relative safety with access to some of the best minerals in the game, it seemed like i had very little choice as i could no longer trade safely even in high sec, so with my haulers packed i started the slow move out to the low sec system where the worm hole was located. 6 jumps out my clients crashed and as it turns out all players using the internode isp had been disconnected and couldn't log back in.

With not alot else to do on a Sunday night, i discussed the idea of living in a wormhole with a much more experienced alliance member, and we came to the conclusion that it would be safer out in our alliance controlled null sec then anywhere else, so it seems i have to turn the train around and head back across the universe to the safety of hundreds of friendly pilots.
