Tick tock, tick tock...

"Oh bother!", Guerre exclaimed.  Then quickly shuffled his feet and apologized to the Amarr mission agent.  Still, he was upset with himself about forgetting this agent was one that frequently sent folks out to do direct combat with the other factions.  Since this was the second in a row and declining right then would have led to a confrontation with "the boss".  The displeasure (and standings hit) from the agent would have been fine, but when "the boss" got wind of it, and somehow she always did, then there would be hell to pay - and hell hath no fury like a woman bunched up panties... hmmm, did she even wear... oh my God!  Guerre decided he didn't want to pursue that line of thought any further!

So, he delayed his decision (knowing that he'd decline it after the four hour window had passed) and went off to run courier missions.  At least those never led to direct declines in apposing faction standings!

Someone had told Guerre that you could run fifteen distribution missions and then switch to a security agent to run that all important sixteenth mission and guarantee yourself a security storyline for the maximum faction gain.  Sadly, he had found that while you can (and in fact you will get a storyline mission as long as the agents work for the same faction - they don't have to be in the same Corporation) do that, all the storyline missions are a random crapshoot and you are not guaranteed any particular storyline based on the normal mission agents you work with.  Bummer!  Oh well... the standing would come, eventually - as long as he didn't go bonkers (or get castrated by "the boss") in the mean time.

The bottom line is waiting around for the skill queue to finish that all important skill is a slow and tedious process and one just needs to find the right challenge...

Marching to the next big thing

The order has been given.

Skill plans have been re-factored, re-ordered, re-planned, and re-loaded.

We are going to w-space.

Assembly Array experience is being acquired.

WooHoo!

Time to brush up on those scanning skills, they are suddenly going to be very important to survival.

Be careful out there!

Odyssey has landed! Oh my, the world has changed...

Test has fallen apart.  Not that my corp was ever involved in that little mess.  But, we shared an area of hi-sec with a corp that was a member of their alliance and that corp has now left this area of k-space and a couple of mercenary corps have moved in.

Don't get me wrong, it's nice to have folks around.  However, it would be even better if they'd just run the anomalies, scan down the sites, and run missions; instead of filling up the manufacturing queues in the constellation.  I mean, seriously, it is nasty when I have to wait five days just have a queue available to run a ten hour manufacturing job.

So...

The corp and the alliance are all aflutter with discussion about should we move, should we rent from the Goons, should we find/purchase a wormhole and just leave k-space for a while???!

We'll see... time will tell...

Be careful out there!
