“Good God Dude! Ya Blog’s Been Ninja’d”

Well almost, I did it :0

The previous blog theme (Arclite 2.02 by http://digitalnature.ro/) is good. But it was always intended as a temporary theme. I’ve toyed with others, but never really got around to actually installing the one I wanted (Atahualpa 3.4.6 by BytesForAll.) takes a lot of setup. As I’m sure you’ll agree the [...]

Fail to prepare. Prepare to fail.

I’ve spent the last few days in Umokka after going there to Help Cyberin in a Rifter pop a MR in a Drake. Not that I was needed. It was like being in the army. Hurry up and wait. Although I did get good advice from the master ninja about RR ships.

I hate admitting I’m wrong, and the [...]

The end of the world as we know it?

As you may know our estimed CEO (Velocity Prime) has stood down. RL calls.

To paraphrase

The CEO is dead long live the CEO.

The Honorable (snigger) Aiden Mourn has been saddled blessed with the mantle of CEO of the greatest Corporation in EVE:

We are sure that Aiden will excel in the position and boost SN further into [...]

Aiden becomes grand ninja master of the green lilac?

Congratulations are in order. Aidenhas ninjad the CEOship out of Velocity primes hands.

Well if I’m honest Velocity Prime has retired from the position of SN’s CEO and passed the baton onto Aiden, I’m sure we all thank VP for his work over the last few months and look to Aiden to lead us into a [...]

Remember to tell CCP that you’ve changed.

My Alt’s stuck in a W-space alliance operation that I’m begining to regret. It’s a C5. Some muppet in the alliance warped around all the Grav and pew sites a week ago. As you know if you warp (or even start a warp) to a W-space site the timer [...]

Length and quality.

How long will you read a blog for? Research suggests 95seconds is the average. Is that all? One blogger suggests Blog posts don’t become a blog until 250 words. Another tries to keep blogs short, but regularly breaks the mythical 1k words barrier. So what is correct?

Personally I’m all for the [...]

A proper job

You may remember form my last post that I’d tried the missioning way of living in Eve, Well as you may have realised from the start it’s not for me. I’m back to missioning the Ninja way. Work with me a little while I explain the way Ninja’s mission :

We Ninja’s are given missions to [...]

I’ve joined the dark side. Was it worth it?

Rana Marrello — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 12:01:37 +0000

I have always figured that to know the enemy you need to think like your enemy. I know someone (I hesitate to use the word friend, he’s a mission runner. Are we allowed to like them?) That runs level 4 missions for some grotty little Caldari corp .

He invited me along, and I soon realised [...]

Mr. Rothschild over at podlogs.com has started a new character with no skills trained. Straight out of the box. 5000 isk and 5 trade orders only. His intention is to make a billion with no more skills trained. I [...]

Fame and fortune are yours?

They guys over at crazykinux.com sent me a post saying that Randon Drivel was gonna be name checked in an up and coming post. Here it is. We are there! Actually there. Somewhat to the bottom of the list but it’s alphabetical so I’m kinda stuffed. I’ve offered them cash and the bodys of my foes to [...]
