Tonight’s Show

Posted by Quivering Palm in Upcoming Shows on September 9, 2009

It’s going to be… Legen…

…wait for it!

For tonight’s show we shall:

  • Talk about the Alliance Tournament 7 and the results after the first weekend, what should we expect on the 2nd round and much much more about the greatest Alliance Tournament yet!
  • Discuss in more detail our learnings and experiences from the Siege of Planet Risk that happened last week, and talk about how a proper wormhole POS should be fitted!
  • Answer the questions you ask from our official channel in-game OTHER\SIRADIO
  • Discuss the Poll Results – it was such a heated subject we decided to keep the same Poll for the second week… or we slacked and forgot to change it… pick whatever you like :-p
  • Play tunes that you like (so if the music breaks suck – you only got yourself to blame!) (No commercial music on the podcast mate =P )
  • We shall be joined – LIVE – UNCUT and TOTALY UNPREPARED (it’s so funny because it’s true!) by an amazing list of guests including but not limited to:
    • PVP Expert and AT7 Commentator TeaDaze from Agony Unleashed…
    • Podded Podcast co-host and Stealth Bomber Expert War Childe… (Rescheduled for next week, as he’s out of beer)
    • Declarations of War Podcast co-host and NOIR. Corp CEO Alekseyev Karrde…
    • …a Mystery Guest that Luminus won’t reveal even to me – fearing that I will collapse prior to the show (he doesn’t mind that I collapse after I arrive at his place with the bee…err…the Spiked Quafe)

    I am on my way to pickup some Spiked Quafe and then just 9 jumps to the SI HQ & Studio!

    Join us live tonight at http://siradio.fm 20:00 EvE Time!

    Podcast and iTunes will be available shortly after the show!

    Winter Expansion: Dominion

    Posted by Quivering Palm in News on September 1, 2009

    It’s official folks – the name of the new expansion: Dominion

    /me likes!

    Don’t know if whoever thought about it is a Star Trek: Deep Space 9 fan, but the name seems to link marvelously to the main concept of the newest expansion: 0.0 endgame.

    Until news slowly come into the light and we start speculating and imagining and planning on changes to come I can only wonder what it will do for wormhole space and wspace colonies.

    My first issue of EON magazine subscription arrived today and I got to read there that the new Sovereignty system will be taking into account production and industry as well as fighting over planets instead of POSes. I guess that explains the Orca on the landing page.. Industry will get some love! The Orca could also be there for other reasons if you prefer.

    I see myself becoming a Small Arms dealer for the mercs of Dust 514 :-D

    I would really love the idea of creating a small outpost inside Planet Risk, if nothing else but to have some room to drink some spiked Quafe with my corpmates and see my Exotic Dancers do their thing when Walking in Stations finally arrives. Now I can only keep them next to my ammo and spare modules in the ship assembly array or take them with me in my pod..

    Oh! and while you are at it CCP, please make it so that I can assemble/refit my T3 subsystems without having to dock in a station.. mkay?

    Btw the official name of WiS, as the folks at Podded Podcast mentioned in their last episode will be called Incarnum.

    I do have some other ideas I would love to see implemented in wormhole space together with Dominion..

    but how about you folks?

    What would you like to see being added with Dominion? Care to expand on the poll options (vote if you haven’t already!) and submit your thoughts?

    Never underestimate a Rifter…

    Posted by Quivering Palm in Lessons Learned on July 26, 2009

    Well today I did… hopefully for the last time too!

    But first things first.. how did I get face to face with a Rifter in the first place? I was ratting in 0.0 right outside Planet Risk. F9O-U9 to be exact. Together with Merinid, with our lovely Ravens. Then a fellow shows up in local and a Heretic in directional.

    By now I’ve learned that you don’t get outside your POS unless you spam directional all the time. So far so good. Well the point is that you also have to remember to uncheck the “Use Active Overview Settings” in order to be able to spot the Scanner Probes that will be closing in on you…

    Well today I didn’t and apparently Merinid didn’t either.

    So a few mins later, we find ourselves inside a bubble and a few seconds later against an overwhelming force of some HACs, Recons… you name it… so a few seconds after that we find ourselves back in our HQ and cloning station.

    This is the story of how I lost my first pod after 7 months (and a few days) of game time :-)

    But how did I end up against a Rifter you ask?

    I thought I could easily blow some steam and go to the old time favorite Old Man Star. I jumped clone to my Villore station where I keep the clone with no implants and went on to buy a Crow with pretty decent Meta 4 gear and a Coreli 1MN MWD for a total of roughly 40M or so.

    A few mins later I am roaming the belts of Old Man Star looking for trouble…feeling oh-so-powerful in my mighty T2 ship being the oh-so-experienced-newb that I am :-)

    And a Rifter shows up.. “Oh great! Let’s kick his ass..” I say to myself while the captain in the frig probably thinks to himself “Oh great! Fresh meat!” or something.. apparently he’s been doing that all day..

    He didn’t fire back until I had him around 50% armor or so.. and I went down faster than you could say WTF-is-going-on-here-I-am-getting-pwnd… fortunately I got my pod out in time and saved myself from further humiliation..

    Afterwards I talk with the guy and he tells me he has about 10M SPs dedicated to flying a Rifter.. and that I should never underestimate em..

    Lesson learned I guess and got a free lesson in humility as well!

    ..never underestimate a Rifter. I know I won’t – ever again!
