Kill of the Week: What a waste 14 May 2013 | 04:45 pm
Kill of the week honors goes to this waste: http://www.eve-kill.net/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=17646190 The Gnosis is a nice gimmick, but I'm coming increasingly to the depressing conclusion that it isn't ...
CSM8 status: Week one 14 May 2013 | 12:26 am
Turns out this CSM thing really is a lot of work. ;-) This week, I feel like CSM8 officially "took office" even though not all of us have signed our NDAs yet. (1) We seem to have our "CSM" flags on...
Burn Jita Redux 14 May 2013 | 12:18 am
I've been asked a few times if I was going to cover Burn Jita 2.0, which wrapped up right before Fanfest. To be honest, I'd forgotten about it, but I was reminded of it over the weekend reading The M...
SCL: Tinker tanks 13 May 2013 | 06:53 am
Well, that was an incredibly busy weekend, in real life, in EVE, in my CSM duties, and in general. I'm going to do my best to get caught up over the next few days. What better way to do that then st...

Fit of the Week: Tag-ratting Vexor 8 May 2013 | 11:23 pm
Before too much longer, the new type of low-sec "tag rats" should be appearing on the Singularity test server. And we don't know how tough they're going to be yet. But I thought it might be fun to p...
Fanfest wrap-up 7 May 2013 | 06:52 am
There were lots of little notes, pictures, and such that didn't make it into one of my main Fanfest posts while I was in Iceland that are still kind of amusing, so I thought I'd do a little bonus junk...
Kill of the Week: Bringing solo back 7 May 2013 | 06:47 am
Every once in a while, I like to pick a Rote Kapelle kill for KOTW and I thought that would be fun to do this week: http://www.rotekapelle.com/killboard/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=85116 Yep, that's the for...
