Overload Everything has dispanded

Now I intend to make this blog weekly with interesting alliance things being included in one post with other things. However, in some cases, such as this, deserves its own post as soon as it happens.

Wut just happened?

Overnight the alliance Overload Everything has gone from over 400 members to about 10. This is because its main corp, Collapsed Out, left the alliance and will be joining PL. All other corps quickly left the alliance as well. I was kicked from Collapsed Out for two reasons. One being I'm far too scrubby for PL (only 31sp, no caps) but someone who dosnt like me for reasons I will explain later in this post (its a funny story) but also happens to be a director told Doomchinchilla that I was live streaming fleet ops and showing intel channels with fleet timers in the motd. Now, this isnt true, I only ever streamed my own fleets and never opened the intel channel, but I suppose if I couldn't really join PL anyway, doom wouldn't of really cared enough to wonder if that was true or not.

PL and OE have always had a relationship of some kind - I often saw PL guys on ts, so I'm not really surprised this is where Collapsed Out have decided to go. After all they have something stupid like 20 supers to fuck around with.

How is this going to effect low sec?

 

I am going to be doing some speculation here, but nothing too far fetched. Now that one of the gal/cal FW space's main alliances has disbanded, this can mean several things for the whole space and the other relevant alliances there.

First off, all solo'ers rejoice, because Ostingele is now a great place to find fights again! Well, will  be once everyone moves out. Ostingele and its surrounding area of space has always had OE close by, but only recently has it actually has OE living in there. Its a great system because even without an alliance living there, there is lots of activity to find fights, so I recommend after a week or two all roamers, solo or small gang, set Ostingele back on their map if they removed it before.

Now, on an alliance level, this is good news for Shadow Cartel, as they are now pretty much the dominant alliance in Placid. They were beating OE before, but now they can just have even more moons! Oh wait, they already had all of OE's moons. Well, its the principle I guess. I mean, there is still TISHU chillin' in Placid but, well... its TISHU. PL is just going to be even more PL-ish now, but nothing no one isnt used to.

I am going to predict that now OE isnt around in Placid, SC might look for more fights with Snuffbox. They are a region apart, SC in Placid snuff in Black Rise, but I think if they decided to start going after eachother's territory some gf's could come out of it, as, apart from PL, they are the two biggest alliances in the area right now. Of course gal and cal mill will be thrown into the mix somewhere, maybe start stretching across Placid a bit more, but as always they are there for the gf's, so I wouldnt expect to see any great plans of conquest into Black Rise/Placid like I am kind of secretly hoping to come from snuff or SC. Although SC and snuff do have different TZ's of operation, and logistics to get to fights might be harder, I would like to think they will find a way to go against each other.

Where am I joining next?

I have no fucking idea. Halp plz.

Seriously though, I was invited by one of the other corps from OE that *might* be joining snuff, but I'm going to wait until they're actually in before I even consider it. Apart from that I might start up my own corp again, but idk if I have the time to invest it in with my exams coming up. Either way, I'm going to see what other offers come my way for a couple days.

I did actually have a lot of fun in OE, I wish I could of been their for their prime instead of towards the end. I picked up some things on FCing and like any alliance you join, I made some friends. The only person I didnt get on with was one of the directors called Propolis who FC'ed some ops and roams. He was the guy I am guessing told doom I was streaming fleets. The reason he dosnt like me is a story of 1337 master trolling.

Some funny stuff from my time in OE:

Prop was making a Svipul roam that I was considering on joining for the night. Until he linked the fit he wanted everyone to run. It was Shield recharge (with logi frigs) all over, T2 rigs and lows. 150mm AC's with scram+web. Now, this might of been ok-ish for solo PvP, but even then I would say there are better choices, but for small gang roaming with frig logi? I couldn't understand why it was a brawling fit with terrible ranged guns, scram+web and then shield tanked.

So anyway I post this fit in a channel with a couple friends so we can all bitch about it. One of my out of alliance friend asks for the name of this FC. I give it to him and then after he forwards me this mail he sent him.

So this obviously make Prop buttmad. He starts shouting in blues channel about how we have a leak/spy so I copy paste the results into the other channel. More emails are sent, prop gets more and mad, was a good laugh, we didn't take it any farther. 

So anyways a couple days pass and then this friend who sent the mails tells me he has a leigion to drop on, needs some OE blosps to do the job. I bring him on comms so he can tell us whats happening and form a fleet. Prop comes into this fleet, sees a guy on comms with the same name that was messaging him and well, puts two and two together. He drags me down and shouts at me a bit, from there on hated me.

Now, I probably come off as being in the wrong here, I probably am (was all just banta I swear) but in all fairness this guy wasnt the best FC I have ever seen...he literally rage quit a fleet in which I lost my beloved Vindicator. He actually logged off because he died.

My first Vindi, was its first fight. Good night, sweet prince.

In this fight he made us bring blaster prot's to fight arty loki's. Now I can understand the thinking behind this, if it wasnt for the fact we had bought the exact same comp against the exact same people also in the exact same comp before and lost horribly, so when we fleet warp onto a cyno with 6 or so dreads coming out, its no surprise we get destroyed. 

Anyway, I guess now I'm just bitching about this one guy for the hell of it, but I have wanted to say this for a couple weeks now, being kicked from OE means I finally can!

Like I said though, OE was fun, I will miss it, but now I can go onto to something else...just don't know what yet.
