I keep hearing this "too bad I don't have sec status" thing.

It's really easy to repair with tags, you know.
It is, but it's also a non-trivial expense. To pull my sec status up from -9.5 to 0.0, cost about 500M. This is fine for a change in lifestyle (I was going from PY-RE to ALXVP). Just to attend an event with a real possibility of dropping it again anyway, it's a bit much, in my opinion.

It's not too bad if you spend some time ratting and collect the tags.  I've done it a few times with Maria now. *innocent look*

You lot have it way easy. Let me know when you've ratted your way back up from near -10 the proper way, without using tags.

Lagging Behind

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.

I am not sure I-RED really appreciate piwates with such a low ss anyway ?
We don't. If ya can't do the time, don't do the crime, ya filthy piwates. :p

You are not required to have a -9.5 sec status to play the game. It is a decision that a player makes on their own, and they must live with the consequences of that decision. :hardcore:

I can honestly say that the "consequences" of living with -9.0 are almost entirely negated by access to jump freighters. Living full time in lowsec is fantastic  :D

I got to -1.9 once by murdering a pirate capsule by 'accident'. It took me ages to get back positive again... :|

There most likely will be, but not anything you can actually do in-game of course, due to the limited game mechanics we have access to as players.

Also, updated OP a bit to include artwork for the Tsuruma event and a tidbit about the recent Scope article posted on IGS. You can expect details for Part 3 to be released this weekend. :)

This whole storyline is something intended to bring I-RED out of the quiet corner and give people something to involve themselves in. Everybody is welcome to react exactly as they think they should IC:

  • Those in PIE are welcome and encouraged to demand we come clean with the truth.
  • Those in PYRE are welcome to call us hypocrites.
  • Those who like us IC are welcome to defend us, as there will be plenty of opportunities for you to feel justified doing so.
  • Those who hate us are welcome to take opportunities to villify us, as there will be similar opportunities to do so


I'd also like to point out the Scope articles are OOC greenlit by I-RED. I am the one ghostwriting them and Korsavius is using a Scope alt to post them. Those who are concerned that it's somebody trying to crap on us should not be so concerned. It's all part of the storyline, and unfortunately, we're unable to create a Scope character with more than a few days membership time.

TL;DR THIS IS WHAT WE OFFER FOR THIS STORYLINE

  • FLEET ACTIONS AGAINST AND WITH I-RED!!! (stay tuned for the upcoming 'raids')
  • Public events: Memorials, Judicial Trials, and Press Conferences!
  • Private Events: Sting operations, raids, etc.
  • Text-RP events as part of the storyline both private and public.
  • Opportunities to support/villify I-RED in character.
  • Exclusive scoops, leaks, and interviews for player news groups.
  • EXCLUSIVE SPECIAL ROLES FOR YOUR CHARACTER AVAILABLE ON REQUEST!

That's right, if you're not feeling special snowflake enough with the public or small group events, you can contact myself, Korsavius, or Makoto for opportunities to place your character in a special role that directly affects the storyline.

Almost all spoilers are available for grabs if you can provide reasonable methods for how your character came by them. Bonus points for espionage or otherwise underhanded ways.

Y'all wanted roleplay?! HERE IT IS!

I think this is a really cool initiative. I hope it results in interesting shenanigans for all involved.  ;)
