I like how the ISD forgot to add the date...

The blindingly obvious Mass Effect reference was more irritating than anything else, imo.

So obvious I still haven't seen it  :D

Well, thats just eve players. I know of at least 6 Muad'Diibs in various spellings.

The hope would've been that ISD folks might be held to a higher standard. :P

(Also, lolquoatpyramidz)

Fair enough :p but yeah, I would never have seen that if you hadn't pointed it out.

and \o/ pyramids!

Not sure that's blindingly obvious, to be honest. >_>


Not quite as obvious (to me, anyway) as "ISD Angelus Faust", but up there.

Is it me, or did a bunch of nullsec troll-alts crash the IGS thread?

No, it isn't you at all.

I like the implications of Gallentians being punched in the face by walking up to a Minmatar as they so freely use another person's culture as a fad.

I'd rather use my ships to blow up Caldari, not get them blown up by Goons, thanks. :)

I'll be perfectly honest and state that the Miss/Mister Federation competitions were a lot better when they weren't just a portrait contest. We don't do pageants based on just a headshot photo in real life; you can be damn sure that such things would involve a lot more in the Federation too.

The one a few years back that was held in the Athena involved more roleplay than pulling one's pants down and dropping a turd on the 'post' button on an IGS thread, and it was far more interesting and enjoyable.

Morwen's Law:
1) The number of capsuleer women who are bisexual is greater than the number who are lesbian.
2) Most of the former group appear lesbian due to a lack of suitable male partners to go around.
3) The lack of suitable male partners can be summed up in most cases thusly: interested, worth the air they breathe, available; pick two.

Morwen, i completely agree with you on that, but this time i didn't have the manpower to handle it really.

Past times i had some help, as someone was handling fleets outside station, others were station-side inviting people to channel and do other stuff.

What i aimed for this year was "visibility", and entice more people to be part of a player-lead live event. Since this is a recurring event, i hope more people will step up next year for more things to happen and probably at a better timezone spread.

It's probably less complicated to handle the organization with one's usual accomplices, without outside help, but generally outsiders tend to be shy at volunteering of their own accord because no one wants their offer of help to be turned down, or to appear overenthusiastic etc.

There was some discussion about a fireworks/figure flying team the last year after the Federation Day, before Incarna happened. I wonder if anyone here might be interested in this kind of project these days?

Perhaps collaborating with or discussing the details of the event with other Gallente players might be productive.
