[CHRN] - Looking for a Few Bad Men

Feb 16, 2016 Dr. Lecter link
Wanted: Cutthroats, Lowlifes & Worse if Ye Dare

Kharon's Shores seeks to supplement its considerable piratical prowess with a select group of the worst kind o' sort. Credits, wenches, and whisky all guaranteed - inquire about our victims' salty tears-sharing plan.

Required Qualifications: Ready, willing, and able to exploit the ever-increasing wealth and activity of this Universe without remorse, national sentiment, or any other moral scruple; unshakable belief that every trader dog deserves the opportunity to "die rather than pay!"

Preferred Qualifications: Shocking depravity; wanton, mirthful murderousness; creative whimsy in inflicting suffering and deprivation upon others

Interested parties may seek parlay with Dr. Lecter

[CHRN] would like to thank provisional-member Arlathis JoHaun for his services and assistance. We here at [CHRN] will be seriously considering his candidacy in light of his exceptional value-add skills demonstrated to-date.

[CHRN]: better piracy through people*

*also through hullplate, shields, atmospheric bulkheads, and anything else standing between us and yer cargoes.

Lol AJ.

As a current member of TRI, AJ has shown no signs of leaving our ranks. I demand you remove this offensive and blatantly obvious propaganda.

If you don't, TRI won't do anything, but we will give you a good ole fashion Canadian passive head shake.

Sowrry...

FYI: This will be your only warning...

AJ has shown no signs of leaving our ranks

Do I have to post the logs wherein he publicly and privately declares his intent - nay, personal compulsion - to leave [TRI]?

This begs the question: who does AJ work for?!

Slp006 Loses an Engine Pylon Assembly
[100] <Arlathis JoHaun> Killing my guild mate ant nice
[100] <Bromba-Estalis> These things happen in grey. It's a dangerous place.
[100] <Slp006> did you at least pick up the thing i dropped?
[100] Bromba-Estalis didn't pick up anything
[100] <Bromba-Estalis> 170cu won't fit in my taur :(

Dr. Lecter To the Rescue!
[100] Dr. Lecter found this thing floating in space...is it valuable?
[100] <Slp006> ah. thats the engine pylon assembly i lost, no doubt.
[100] <Dr. Lecter> Seems likely
[100] <Slp006> care to sell it back to me?
[100] <Dr. Lecter> Sure!
[100] <Dr. Lecter> What kind of pirate would I be if I didn't?

<Dr. Lecter> WOW...these things are a HUGE PITA to make!
<Dr. Lecter> 1 IBA
<Dr. Lecter> 10 FCP, 5 FFSA
<Slp006> yes. took me hours.
<anna thehma> ouch... will cost a pretty penny
<Dr. Lecter> All moved to C12?
Dr. Lecter is in pain just thinking of it
<Slp006> well?
<Dr. Lecter> Hold on, I'm calculating a fair price and then applying a GreyShop-markup
<Dr. Lecter> Ok, it's an end-level component but not insane like a reactor or master computer
<Dr. Lecter> 100M
<anna thehma> sounds fair
<Slp006> ok. not happening.
<Xeha> a computer is usually 100m lecter
Dr. Lecter will add it to the pile
<Dr. Lecter> Usually? How often do these really get sold?
<Dr. Lecter> And feel free to make a counter-offer
Dr. Lecter really isn't trying to build a One Piece At a Time dent ;)

<Arlathis JoHaun> Ill give u me agg
<Arlathis JoHaun> Levi drop
<Slp006> 40M.
<Dr. Lecter> 75M
<anna thehma> so... they will settle on 60
<Slp006> 65 mil.
<Arlathis JoHaun> 50

[100] <Dr. Lecter> Anyone want to buy a nice Engine Pylon Assembly? Bidding starts at 75M
[100] <Dr. Lecter> Save yerself days of work!

<Dr. Lecter> 70M is my final offer before I turn in for the night
<Slp006> deal. 70.
<anna thehma> well i never...

[100] <Great Tit> you got the 75 mill?
[100] Dr. Lecter settled for 70...he's a pushover
[100] <Great Tit> nice!
[100] <Dr. Lecter> And it's late

The Plot Thickens
[100] <Arlathis JoHaun> I failed
[100] <Arlathis JoHaun> I dont know what to do my head it hurts
[100] <Arlathis JoHaun> So bad
[100] <Dr. Lecter> Don't feel too bad, "Arlathis JoHaun"...I have no doubt next time you see me in an XC, you'll shoot me ;)
[100] Dr. Lecter just thanks his lucky stars you didn't put two and two together

[100] <Arlathis JoHaun> What did i do
[100] <Dr. Lecter> All you did was let a known pirate fly next to you in an XC right up to yer guild's cargo, scoop it, fly to a station, bounce off badly, then dock
[100] <Dr. Lecter> So...not much?
[100] <Great Tit> you almost helped him pirate it AJ
[100] <Dr. Lecter> "Arlathis JoHaun" was basically my escort!
[100] <Arlathis JoHaun> ;-;

An Explanation Emerges
[100] <Dr. Lecter> The whole time, I'm just waiting for his hornet to light me up while I walk away with this heavy-ass engine pylon
[100] <Dr. Lecter> Then I figure, well I made it to Tung guarded and I'm admired, maybe he'll hesitate long enough for me to dock...wait, my key jammed
[100] <Dr. Lecter> BOOM, bounce off the station and spin like a top
[100] <anna thehma> oh no...
[100] <Dr. Lecter> Back off, fix key, line up
[100] <Dr. Lecter> Dock at full turbo with him 50m away the whole time, trying to decide if he should shoot me
[100] <Dr. Lecter> 'Wait, did that just WORK!?

[100] <Arlathis JoHaun> Yea ik iz ucked up i didnt shoot i didnt do anything but watch u take my guild mates stuff
[100] <Dr. Lecter> How did you not check what it was?!
[100] <Arlathis JoHaun> Ik ik ik i cant do anything about
[100] <Arlathis JoHaun> I mean i could idk
[100] <anna thehma> you can learn from your mistake
[100] <Dr. Lecter> Nah, please don't
[100] <Great Tit> Thing is, just before all that, AJ was braggin about maybe being a pirate from time to time.

[CHRN] is drunkenly revelous as we welcome Rin Ganborro back into the piratical fold as Lieutenant and Council.

The golden age of piracy.

It was a pretty good bit o' 'rattin, to be sure. Yarr.

You're actually playing again Lecter? I'd join CHRN again. If you'll have me. Not sure how effective I will be on my 5 year old iPad... But it's playable, and I'm living on my boat so, no computer currently.

I'm also rusty as hell... Been about three years I think.

Is tumblemonster still around? (He founded CHRN as I recall?)
Jun 21, 2016 yodaofborg link
Nah, you missed him, he just left again. I doubt tumble will be back anytime soon either, he left quite a few years ago when the devs removed all his monies from the cargo duping bug. He felt a bit picked on, as it's well known others used the bug, but yet got to keep their funds.

Anyway, I guess I know who this strange person was who brought up CLM in game now. Welcome back!

If you happen to bump into me, let me know and I'll send you an invite, but you might have more fun with a more lively guild. With Dr. Lecter out, we're down to just me now, and I'm barely playing currently (busy writing a novel).

Join Epic or BLAK if that's your forte, if your into rp SB is always recruiting animals too rar.
