So, after grinding some level 4s in caldari hi sec for a while I got utterly bored ( especially with the totally broken guristas ability to jam, nothing like being perm jammed for minutes at a time to piss one off, especially if the ship your in has a gimped tank and eccm mods fitted to avoid it; sort it out CCP ffs!).
Anyway I went and found me a nice bit of low sec (0.3) and moved my tengu, crane and buzzard out there. Left all my
Other ships in hi-sec; not needed! Brought a dramiel to join the fleet later, some fuckers just need killing, dramiel's the ship for the job! Have been running exploration sites and making stupid amounts of isk ever since. In one week I got a couple of faction drops and just 2 of the mods were worth close to a billion. I dance round a few
Wormholes when I find class
2 n 3 with no pilots, and I try to keep the belts chained so there's a BS in each one. I occasionally clear them for the faction spawns, which sometimes are nice to me and drop cool stuff. The tengu is now pimped out and can take insane amounts off damage, recently ran a 6/10 and never even got past 5% shield dmg, with 20 BS and assorted other ships shooting the shit outta me. Awesome. I occasionally try to engage others in PvP but nobody wants to play, I don't care that much as the isk keeps rolling in.
I've set up a couple of planets in low sec to produce rocket fuel so I can continue the T2 missile production which keeps me in furies and makes a tidy profit. I've also been buying BPCs of dramiel's and knocking them out for 10-15 mill profit each. Basically Eve life is very good and I'm currently content.

Moving sideways
Well my time in provi was quite short, I'm now back in hi-sec caldari space (back to my roots), it's almost 2 years since I last flew in these parts and I'm quickly realising why I left. Have been running lots of level 4s but rather than saving up loyalty points as intended I blew them all on a few implants and a couple of single run hookbill bpcs. Lost one in a duel already; to another hookbill. C'est la vie.
Trimmed down lots of assets before leaving provi, and the bank balance shot back up for a time. I've been doing a fair bit of reasonably profitable manufacturing using just melted down loot from the lvl4s, and building rigs from the salvage, which I'll probably keep in stock for personal use. Have got the missile stocks back up to ridiculous levels and the excess is going to decent low sec markets. Have bought a handful of boos that will hopefully produce the construction components I need to produce t2 missiles. I'm still using majority t1 for pve, reserving t2 for pvp. I'm weighing up options atm, it's either faction warfare for the caldari militia or a new Corp operating in null sec, they fly predominantly Amarr tho, and while I can, my skills (especially lasers) are quite poor. What do you reckon? The Corp will wait an the offer is good for the foreseeable future, so I may go with FW here in C space, as I really hate moving and seriously
Want to get better at pvp.
Reli out, for now

The New Look Me
So, it's been a while...
I've been playing, just not posting...very lazy.
I have an excuse; wanna hear it?
I've moved country, 3 times since my last post (China, England and now Borneo)
What's happened...well Incursion came along. Meh...can't be arsed with incursions, if I wanted to do missions I would, doing missions with lots of people you don't know.. a good number of whom are gonna be ninjas, gankers and scammers..nah. Go ahead do them, enjoy yourself, but you won't see me there.
We got new portraits... here's my main's new visage.
As near as i could get him to the real me. Though my crows feet aren't that bad.
I've also moved corps but not my playing area. I moved out to the low sec entry to Providence some time ago, thinking the rest of my corp were coming with me; a handful did, the rest just joined the Industrial arm or stayed in Hi-sec.
So I'm now UTC +8 and very few of my corpies were ever on, and if they were they were somewhere in Hi-Sec running missions or mining.
Got chatting to an Ex corp mate and we talked about the possibility of me joining his corp and after a few days, it became reality.
So Amarr Border Defense Consortium is my new home, based on the border of of Provi. Got my first EVER real kill the same night, which I took as a good omen.
I have something like 33 million SP, can fly all Caldari t2 frigs and cruisers. and am generally very happy. Need to improve my PvP skills, but that will come with trying, and at the moment I really am trying.
Reli out, Fly Dangerous ppl
BTW if you don't read Kane Rizzel's 'A Pirates Perspective' you really should, it's one of my fave blogs, along with many more in fact. If I can't play Eve...travelling, working etc...I read about other ppl playing it. Some of my faves are down the right side of the page, but they are sadly out of date...I'll put that right soon...promise.

Hiatus
Well having moved everything to my new low sec home next door to 0.0, i'm now wondering why.
A change in copr/alliance structure seems to have made things a bit weird. I joined the PvP arm of my alliance to get some experience (i'm a PvP noob!) only to have it closed down before seeing any action.
I wanted to do things with my corp, but have only joined roams and fleets with other corps, what to do?
I'm about to move in RL again....this time to Borneo. So I'll be away from the game for a while again. If my corp hasn't got it's act together by then, then I may look around the region for a more active group.
Any ideas?

And another one down....
http://eve.battleclinic.com/killboard/killmail.php?id=11891891#lostLoadout
Yup, yet another Tengu and 37k SPs down the crapper thanks to the lovely Northern Coalition boys. Then they sent me on the podless express back to hi-sec, minus a set of +4 implants. Joy!
Liquidated lots of assetts, sold a few ships (4), and have replaced the ship and the implants.
Joined my first 2V pocket defence fleet, looking forward to lots more in the near future.
Hopefully keep this Tengu a little longer.

Back from inner space
Hey,
It's been a while sorry...been travelling in RL. India (on old Royal Enfield) in the himalayas, Maldives (snorkelling), Hong Kong, Philippines (Diving...awesome), Kuala Lumpar (visiting friends), back to HK, now in China with my GF, for a while....heading to the UK for a month soon.
EVE: Managed to keep my skills queue topped up during my travels and now have near perfect shield skills, can use T2 Heavies and Cruise :) Advanced Weapons upgrades and Advanced Spaceship Command now at 5, so the long awaited Widow and Golem aren't far away.
Have been back in Eve for about a week, thanks to a shiny new laptop. Rejoined my old Alliance: Aspire and have joined the Exploration and PvP arm called Field Works, it's about time I got my PvP feet wet (apart from being ganked and caught sleeping in low sec / worm holes that is).
This week I've set up some PI stuff to help the corp fuel the POS and I've been doing a lot of exploration sites. Had a few nice radar sites that have dropped some great loot and had a good escalation yesterday from the 'Sansha Vigil' exploration site.....this led to a four part mission, which led to some good faction loot (true Sansha) some great salvage (5 intact armour plates which go for 35 million each). The only down part of the day was blowing up a True Sansha juggernaut, then instead of aligning to a gate, I warped instead ( I had about 30 other ships kicking the crap out of my Tengu at the time), I van't get over thinking what loot might have been in the bugger, and I hadn't bookmarked the site...Idiot!
So anyway...I'm back, the wallet is filling up rapidly in anticipation of the next new shinies, have made almost 400mill in first week back...not a bad start.
Expect me to be blogging more from now on.

Here's a shot from the final part of the escalation yesterday, I had to take down a Sansha Battletower, which in my little tengu took some time....I thought I was gonna run out of ammo. It contained a lod of crap loot, but made up for by the Centi a-type small remote armor repairer dropped by an earlier battleship...(yeah why the hell was a BS carrying a small one....I have no idea. :)
