Something I've been working on and dreaming up for a while is a podcast. After many weeks of planning and prep I finally grabbed an alliance mate and throw it all out the window! H8NU2 and myself sat down and had a little chat about Faction Warfare life and fun times we've had. Hope you enjoy!

Quick upload
More often than not I'm bombarded with the question of, "When are you gonna upload that fight?" In the future this answer will be much simpler. If it is a good fight I'll have a raw video up relatively quick. If the fight was so so with long breaks between fights I'll need to edit it. The latter goes into my "junk drawer" so to say. These are good fights that I need to hash out and edit properly before they see the light of day.
Great fights come often for us in Gal mil FW, but life does not always allow me to sit down and edit videos in a timely fashion. In an effort to put out content more often I feel these raw fights will do the trick. Think of these videos as a preview of what is to come.
This will be on a trial basis only. If you, the viewer/reader, feel this is a repetitive process and the redundancy is unnecessary it will be cut. If no one complains about the process and all goes well it will be the standard for my content.
Last year in mid December I uploaded the first of these videos. Here is a LINK to the video. Thus far it has received 100+ views along with 5 likes and comments. It may not be the greatest of stats, but for a newer YouTube channel these are good stats. The video has been moved into a new playlist called: FACTION WARFARE RAW. All of the coming raw videos will be available in the playlist.
With that I'll leave you with the latest of these raw videos, enjoy!

Fit of the week 3
With some upcoming changes to the Crucifier model I thought it fitting to share my favorite fit! I've always enjoyed using this ship. It's fast, agile and has a surprisingly large drone bay for a frig. On top of this it's versatility really sets it apart from other frigs. You can honestly engage any turret ship with this baby!

Fit of the week 2
I should really change the name to Fit of the year at this point, but here is week 2! I've been using this little gem for a while now and I love it! It's fast and works great for its purpose. What am I referring to you may ask? An Interceptor is what I'm talking about! The Rubicon rebalance has blown the lid of these things. They are so much better thanks to the warp and their respective bonus changes. Not all interceptors are created equal however. Some are fast and love to kite while others prefer to get up close and melt your face off. I'm more for the kiting when it comes to interceptors personally. To me it is about self preservation. I'm here to catch it while my fleet is here to kill it. I can't do my job if I'm dying after every catch now can I?
Enter the Malediction!

I know it is not amazing by any standard, but it's not supposed to be. This is a fleet interceptor. The goal with this baby is to swoop in, grab point, and if need be scramble it while still outside of their scramble range. It is however not that simple most times. I've got a little video to accompany this fit of the week to try and show you how to use this ship. Hope you enjoy!

Eha battle
Fighting in Eha has been crazy to say the least. In the last 48 hours 309 kills have been made. If you've been looking for action and fights, Eha is the place to be. The action here is seemingly none stop!
On 12/17/2012 just after 0:00 EVE time a friendly poco came out of reinforcement. It was a friendly poco for us in BNANA and seeing how TEST had put it into reinforcement we knew it would bring a fight. The following is an uncut video of the battle. Hope you enjoy!

Fit of the week 1
It's a bit late, but its finally here! Our 1st fit of the week! We all know the old AMAZING Hurricane is gone and dead. Those of you who flew it probably feel the same as I do about it. We all wish it was back and just as cheap as it used to be. I think I have found the fix, but with a few tweaks. I give you the...
No I know some of you may think I'm crazy, but look at the fit. You've got the EHP, better applied DPS, the mobility, 2x med neuts, and it far cheaper than the cane fleet issue. Some of you may sheer at this due to me not using one of the ships bonuses. I'm sure you'll get more EHP over the long run, but you'll not get the applied DPS and may need to drop neuts. I've ran this fit for a while now and have been very please with it. It replaces the old cane nicely IMHO. Let me know what ya thing!

Favor to SOMERblink
Well there went all my plans for new ship fittings. Life came up and I've not been able to do those yet. My apologies, but they will be coming in the near future.
In other news! SOMERblink... Yes I know all of you have stood by your favorite gambling site! Well, maybe stood is a strong word. I think by now most of us are standing on them and/or CCP putting pressure on them to do something about this RMT thing. Finally, no official CCP word, we've SQUEEZED something out of them. Not the glorious resolution some have called for, but it is a step in the right direction.
I've not been around for most of the SOMER fun fair to be had due to some RL issues and a lovely trip to Vegas. We'll get to the Vegas thing another time. Once RL let up and my vacation was over I came back to the rage and bitterness of this SOMER bit. Before I get into my point I want to make it perfectly clear I have used SOMER's gambling site in the past and have profited from it. I started using it back when CCP Rise was still Kil2. In his podcast, Bringing Solo Back, he got a sponsorship from SOMER. A few episodes later he actually went on their site and tried it out. He stated that it was really easy, fluid, and very enjoyable. Peeking my interest I went and tried out the site for myself. I found the site to actually be enjoyable and made a profit. I continued to play for a while, but lost interest in short order. Now that we're clear that I have supported them through using there site in the past I can start to build my case.
Content creators in the past have not got the attention from CCP that many feel they deserve. Whether it be players organizing events, players teaching new players to play, external sites with ties to the game, or many other forms of content. Now recently CCP has started community spotlights. This has been a great move, but now with SOMERgate coming to light is it enough? Is CCP showing too much favor to one and not the others? Of course! There is no doubt about this! CCP gave SOMERblink prizes of immeasurable worth on top of rewarding every "employee" they have. I know they took back the Gold Magnate and Guardian Vexor, but the gifts they still gave away have immeasurable worth. Who knows what VIP package to fanfest or the special edition ships mean and/or could be worth. Lets not even get on to the subject of even playing field to win these prizes.
Many people have asked why all the favoritism towards SOMER. I think I have found the answer to this question. The answer comes from one of CCP's own employees, CCP Rise. As I stated prior he has a history with SOMER. His experience was a good one and I'm sure SOMER benefited greatly from it. CCP Rise, Kil2 at the time, told stories of players making it big their site and those who lost it all on his podcast. Now that he is a CCP employee his words and actions have more meaning to us as players. He can't just say anything anymore without weight and possible repercussions.
In September of this year CCP Rise graced The Daily Roam podcast on their 6th episode. The show started off ho hum and usual. Then when the attention turned to CCP Rise for opening statements he mentioned that he couldn't mention SOMER and he really didn't know of other things to say. He did mention the features and ideas area of the forums however. Forget Myface, one of the host, mentioned that he was jealous of Rise's SOMER sponsorship. After a few chuckles, CCP Rise mentions he has a whole new kind of joy from SOMER. He stated that once moving to CCP he's found how many "CCP'ers are like hopeless degenerate SOMERblink gamblers who like buy PLEX to pay for their SOMERblink addictions..." He goes on to say a few more things, but this is the meat and bones right here.
There we go... It all makes sense now. Here is where CCP's favoritism comes from. I'm sorry it took so long for me to get to this point, but I feel it to be necessarily. Here is the link to the podcast episode. The statment is about two minutes into it. I enjoy The Daily Roam and wish no ill on the guys. They do a great show and I hope more of you will listen to it. As for statements about CCP on this episode... I'll leave you as the players to it from here.
