Of Field Trips, Kills, and Tears.

So, it’s been a week since my last post…and quite a bit has happened. I’ve helped in a few kills, had a great time in one of our weekly salvaging ops, made a decent amount of ISK from you ever helpful mission runners, and got some decent tears to fuel my ship for a while longer. So sit down, grab some popcorn and a coke (please…no pepsi), and have a read.
Suddenly Ninjas has two official weekly salvage ops in which we go around and salvage peoples missions in mass…collecting loots, salvage, tears, and most of the time a few killmails. One of which is local to Dodixie, and the second we choose a system each week that fits a certain set of criteria (top sekret! no askin!) This week I wasn’t able to make our Dodixie Operation so I tagged along on our Field Trip. It was no different than normal as we went back and revisited Emologranlan since it had been such an excellent provider of fun the last time we went there for our weekly Field Trip.
I stayed around with the other Ninjas harvesting tears, loots, salvage, and a few killmails for over 8 hours. In the end we made over 12mil ISK each which is actually a bit lower than normal…but for good reason. We had over 20 Ninjas involved in the Fleet at one time…and while that may not sound like a lot. Trying to find enough missions to keep 20 Ninjas moving for 8 hours straight is a pain in the ass…and ends up with quite a few of us sitting around twiddling our thumbs and starting random topics on voice chat. But…the tears we get from some of these mission runners are superb. (This last trip actually got us a War Dec…but that’s for my next post…)
Word of advice to all you mission runners out there…when a Ninja loots your stuff…they really do want you to shoot at them. Whether it’s for them to go grab their pvp fit Battleship to blow you away, or to simply get a fast frigate to warp scramble you and keep you in one place for an hour or so because you are being an Ass…one way or another…it’s bad for you to shoot at us. Just as this guy, this one, or maybe even him. Those last few were especially fun because they were butt hurt that we brought no less than 6 remote reppers to help our little guys stay alive while we killed them (I was one of the little guys in my Stabber for one, and a remote repper in a Hurricane for another). We even had 2 rifters and a thrasher suicide themselves trying to kill us…not to mention the hurricane that did in on accident thinking they had aggro just because their friends did…they all failed I might add!
Moral of that story? We are Ninjas…we are not PvPers…getting smacked for using overwhelming force and a fleet of remote repair ships makes us happy…so keep it coming! (of course…hopefully none of you people reading this blog are stupid enough to shoot at a ninja…but if you are, thanks for the loots!)
All in all we collected over 17km^3 of loot for that one operation…and I enjoyed every minute of it.
Now, for those of you who like a bit of tears…I collected these yesterday morning…where I made over 63mil isk in a 2 hour period…it was such a glorious morning.

Cyberin > no need to when other people do them for me
This guy was my favorite…just because his spelling was horrendous…and because he opened a private convo with me rather than just raging in local like most people do.
I have much more tears than that…but looking at my chatlogs folder I’ve determined that I need to start taking notes on when I get my tears…because I don’t feel like looking through a week of logs to find the good stuff. So expect more, better tears next time after I’ve worked out a way to keep track.
And up next in my next post…WAR!
