ZOMGWTFBBQ? Ice belts being removed? Grav sites going away, and being replaced with no-probes required anoms? Ice becoming a four hour wait for the next site? Choas? Dogs and Cats sleeping with each other? MADNESS?!?!!
So... the second hole is on hold ( same number of letter, just change the 'e' for a 'd' ). The alts are going back to farming ice... lots of ice. While we were in boringville, carving ice, we had an ibis show up right next to us. Sa warps all of us to the station! WTF? Suddenly three red-flashy ships drop right where we were. Good job!!!
One gets nailed by Concord, the other two warp out and back to the second set of targets. By this time Sa's alt is back in a BC and 'tags' the two flashies for a nice Concord assisted KM. He was laughing so hard he blew coffee out his nose!
So we log for an hour or so, end up checking the home hole and dicking with the neighbors. We cleared out all of thier LADAR sites, for about four hours. The reactors are offline while Ge micro-manages some BPOs and component production.
Sunday morning, we log in and check the neighbor again. He has visitors!!! I have all the sites book-marked, and I start making perches. Three tengus should be a good match-up for our little five-person fleet. We load up a Loki, Proteus, Falcon and two HAM Drakes, and an alt sits in a Hictor... just in case.
My first attempt at a close tackle go poor, I set up a perch in the fifth site and go for the gold. Warping in the Falcon and Loki we decloak only to see them warp off... somehow warned we were coming.
We all load up scouts, and put out probes to find thier entrance. A minute later, I have the K162... we put up pickets and wait. Five minutes later a Condor and Kestral jump through the K162 and warp to seperate sites. Ge goes for a tackle and misses the Kestral, Sa reports the Condor cloaks on site.
After a few cloak and bounce sessions, as well as watching them create pounces. I tell Ge to try again, he misses and in frustration loots some sleeper loot and shoots the wrecks. They get the hint and warp to the K162, I follow them inside and quickly find thier home PoS(s). Ze takes up picket at the K162, and watches a Pilgrim enter the K162 behind me. I take up position over thier PoS and watch ship changes.
Two of thier number log out, Sa calls for the Falcon and overwatch as he grabs the stabbed Noctis and collects all of the loot remaining. Shortly after finishing, Ge reports a cloaky t2 leaving. We load up the Bloots, escort it home and crit the connection. I stay in the neighbors hole, and we all log out for Ice mining.
Did I mention Ice Mining is boooorrrinngs? We did it anyway. We haven't been on our alts for more than ten minutes when a yellow flashy drops into the belt. We dutifully warp off, Sa grabs the BC and heads back. I go make lunch while he tackles and kills a Minmatar FW pilot who had a suspect flag. Since our home hole and alts are 'hot', we take the rest of day to play WoT.
