mittens just broadcasted: "Somehow I don't think we'll need to worry about a Titan escalation for at least a couple of months."

I'm curious to know how n3 is viewing the events that happened yesterday, and exactly what it means for the long term objective. cfc is full on knifetwisting mode right now, back to back fleets have been broadcasted for pretty much the entire morning.

So this is like the only time I'm going to kinda shit talk here so bare with me. N3 isn't CFC, and it's telling that you innately think there's gonna be spin to begin with.

Okay so now that's out of the way, I'll give it to you straight. Who fucking cares? We lost Titans, big fucking whoop. Yes, that's a lot of ISK to lose and it's historical, it was a dicking of the century. Again...it's just Titans, we didn't even lose 10% of our Super fleet, which is our workhorse. Even if you did dick our Super fleet as well it wouldn't have been anywhere near enough to set us back. We have along with PL the most established renter system in the entire game. We can welp 750 supers each month and that's just breaking even. It really isn't a big deal. I mean for fuck sake, PL had 34 titans in holding that they handed out IMMEDIATELY after all was said and done as reimbursement, which is absolutely back shit insane.

There IS a big deal here though, and that's the fact that we have a locked system so close to our home. Yesterday was the quintessential good fight, and anybody in N3 or PL leadership will tell you it was good content and was just nice to be a part of. It sucks, but in the end that's what EVE is.

Prognosis? Looking forward to more good fights.
