just kill Ory' Hara, who is sitting around b-8 in a vult with gemis, with his pal daNi Ei, neither one of em' fights, when you chase one, the other comes up behind you.

pair 'o' bastards.

And of course they didn't have any reason to do it. With your honesty and devotion to the community, I'm sure you would have said so if they did.

meh, I was defending you.

haha, vults with gems? since when are those threatening...

I spose that's what you get for flying a rag everywhere :P

why vults?

(1) Ory'Hara flies into and around B8 in his Hog Mk II. There he sees Blackhole Goldclaw, in a rag Mk III with flares and swarms. "Bugger off, I hate swarms!" sez Ory'Hara to BG.

(2) Fooz shows up in B8 in a hog! Ory'Hara and Fooz start playing hog wars and are merrily shooting at each other when BG comes up and tries to gank Ory'Hara at point blank range.

(3) Ory'Hara, who felt he had been very clear with BG earlier and was engaged already besides, /explodes

(4) Ory returns in a vult III with a pair of gems. Ory and others proceed to pump gemini missiles and n2 streams into poor, fat, slow to move BG for... oh, an hour or so. Rather than "not fighting" Ory'Hara simply chases BG's overweight rag until it turns to fire spam, then cuts off to dodge the swarms and leaves BG a little gift of gems in the ass. Over and over and over again.

(5) BG gets into a snit, logs, and posts this.

(6) Ory'Hara has a little smile as he reads BG's post, and remembers to tuck a gems/n3 valk away in Sedina, just for special little Blackhole Goldclaw and his swarm spamming rag.

The End.

Ha!

Hehee.

So little zamzxie gets his just desserts once again... ah, how I love Karma...

Though placed in RP, I'd like to go OOC and into a suggestion mode for a moment. Gems are an interesting little critter. They're cheapest of all our S port missiles and probably the only ones of much use. ? and Arolte showed my heavy ship flying characters on more than one occasion that they are a useful, light and ammo-rich tool for light fighters to really screw with the heavies. However, the one problem with them is variable damage. I've heard that this can come from one missile taking out the other, or that it has to do with projectile + target speed issues.

Since ammo based weapons are apparently not affected by concussion or impact of other weapons, and since the damage two gemini missiles do to a stationary Rag varies greatly sometimes, I'm guessing the problem lies elsewhere. Anyone have any clue as to what the deal is with the damage calc for gems, and how it might be made more reliable?

mm, really, lecter isn't telling half the story, for one thing, since he threatend me, he knew I was going to attack him.

for another, he never killed me, in fact, *I* killed him, and he never killed me at all.

since I kicked his ass, along with his friend who'd sneak up behind me, we can /lock this flamebait, sorry FM

Thanks for pointing out the obvioius, BG.

We all know you are a sneeky lil bastard when you are in that spam rag and you cant stand a honorable kill. So, interfering with other fights, many times have i been in a duel with someone or just finished and i hear a BEEEEEP at close range and pop, stand no chance. This isnt only me either...

Now, i have a minor vendetta for the evening against you, as i enter b8 you fight Ory, and i try to join in the manhunt, but cant pop you, we PM a bit, you asking for me to stand down a bit, i agree. But sorry, i lied, and got my revenge kills, and stopped after those 2-3 kills
I respect fighters, not spam raggers going for the 40% ship in a duel

You are digging your own grave, and i sure don´t mind it...

Seems an appropriate place to lock it.
