♥1♥ What is your timezone, primary language and approximately how many hours of Eve do you play per week? Tell us a little about your real life, your age, occupation etc.
A: I am US tz (austin, tx) and my primary language is English. Although I’m ustz I am active in euro as well because I have an awesome IT job and I play at work :P That being said, I play about 25-30hrs a week. I am a 22 year old senior in college.
♥2♥ What are your feelings about Taylor Swift? Which Taylor Swift song inspires you the most and why?
A: I think she’s pretty good looking, however I have not listened to any of her music. Sorry to disappoint.
♥3♥ Do you approve of scamming people in Eve? Have you ever done so? Do you think it’s okay not to honour ransoms?
A: I do approve of scamming. I told a guy that I would include a carrier in a character sale, and I did not include said carrier... Honouring ransoms=good e-karma, I always honour them.
♥4♥ Do you approve of metagaming/spying in Eve? Have ever you done so or had it done to you? Do you have any useful spy alts? PM details about them to Elise Randolph.
A: The existence of metagaming/spying is a huge part of eve and impossible to avoid. I have never had a spy, but during the last reincarnation of Cora we had guys on NC comms when we were camping EC- and it was pretty hilarious hearing the fc shit bricks when we warped our machs in.
♥5♥ List all your Eve characters along with skillsheets. Note your main, skillpoints of each character, specializations and how long you’ve had each character. Private message full API keys of all characters/accounts to Elise Randolph.
Fainaru Wada: 73mil sp
http://eveboard.com/pilot/Fainaru_Wada
I’ve had fain for 1yr3months. Used to sell my mains to make isk... terrible i know. (ask kai about raging at me for apping with so many chars to cora ) but i’ve since learned of the joys of suicide ganking so nps there.
Wagg: 64mil sp
http://eveboard.com/pilot/wagg
Just bought him the other day. Will be in a nyx soon(tm)
♥6♥ What ships can you pilot and what ships do you like? What is your play style? Do you have any FC experience? If so, on what scale. What other roles are you familiar with in gang.
A: Well, Fain can fly pretty much anything. I prefer minny though. Cynabals, vagas, and machariels are my favorite ships. I vary in play style. I’m all about a good nano hac or rrbs gang, but sometimes I like to grab the cynabal and go wandering 60jumps solo. I have had small gang fc experience, mostly against lol nc gangs and I’ve done great (if i say so myself).
Some other roles: I bring a rapier to gang off and on, fit with probes and a cyno, so I have experience probing out some fgt and keeping him tackled until the gang shows up. Also, I am an ex-super owner so i’m familiar with that role in fleet. I have also flown tackle, but would prefer to be in something with a little more cowbell.
♥7♥ Do you have an independent way to make income? Do you pay for Eve with plex or RL money?
I suicide gank for isk, and sell alts on the side(for isk onthe forums)
I used to pay for my sub with rl money, but now i’ve switched to doing the 30day plex (poor college kid)
♥8♥ How long have you been playing Eve? Tell us a little about your Eve history, greatest achievements, your favorite fights/kills, previous corporations/alliances, and any past friendly or unfriendly relationships you’ve had with us.
I have been playing for a little over 3 years. I started out in lowsec. A friend from work got me to play eve and he got me in to his lowsec pvp corp. I had some really fun times in metropolis for about my first 6months playing. At that point I decided that I wanted more sp and didn’t want to wait a year for it. So i saved up some isk, sold my main, and begun flipping chars until i finally had a respectable char. Next, I decided that I wanted to go into 0.0, and by pure luck ( and i think keb felt bad for me) I got into Cora on a two week trial. I kicked ass and stayed in, rest is history.
My favorite fights in eve where in EC- when me and a couple old Cora guys would rape 30man nc gangs with a proteus and a couple unprobeable arti-machs. Was pretty great insta-popping nearly any ship while the gang sat there and shot the 500k ehp proteus that was keeping them tackled. Another great achievement was dropping my wyv on some fgt that jumped to a cyno gen.
http://84.234.197.151/rakb/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=85530
♥9♥ List any relevant killboard links to all your PvP characters, and explanations of any significant losses.
Fain kb stats:
http://cora.eve-kill.net/?a=pilot_detail&plt_id=510148
most painful loss with him was a slaved geddon. A friend and I took on a 15man mixed bs and bc gang with two rrbs and a falcon. Killed some but ultimately lost the geddon and my slaves. Sad day.
♥10♥ Why do you want to join us? Where did you hear about us? List any references or vouches in HABIT or PL (MAKE SURE you’ve talked to them first before posting here).
I heard about you guys and saw proof of your expertise in the ally tourneys and all of the epic kills/fleet fights you’ve had in the past. Also, I’ve seen some PL videos and it looks like you guys really have a good time.
About my references... As you’ll see from my history, I’ve been on the other side of the fence through my entire experience in 0.0. So, unfortunately, I do not have any references in HABIT. I chose HABIT bc you guys are a mid sized corp and it seems like you’re active and put up a good showing. I’m looking for something new and I think I could really get along with you guys.
As far as other references in PL: Kai, Jog, Twinkey

This next section is designed to get to know more about your Eve knowledge and what you would do in different situations.
♥17♥ While roaming, you find a Drake in a belt and engage it (you decide what ship(s) you’re roaming in, and give us the setups here too). Half way through the fight, while the Drake has you warp disrupted, a Basilisk uncloaks. What do you do?
I would be in my cynabal(fit listed above). I would point the drake, and orbit at ~20km while hitting him with rf emp. When the basi decloaks I would switch damage to the basi while keeping out of scram range from the drake. If all goes well, I can kill the basi before the drake rapes my shields, at which point I would switch back to the drake (if he’s still around). Оthеrwise‚ I would get out of point range from the drake, when necessary, and gtfo.
♥18♥ You are roaming with an alliance member, both of you in vagabonds, and spot a lone Drake on a gate in an empty system. What do you do?
In a perfect situation:
I would have one of us jump through and re-approach while the other locks up the drake and tries to bump him off the gate. If he tries to warp, I would point him at range and begin shooting until he jumps or aggros.
What would most likely happen is:
when I’m going in for a bump, drake throws scram/web/terror rage missiles on my face. I’d have my buddy jump through and point him while I jumped out to safety, re-approach, hope the drake is still aggro’d, rape his face.
♥19♥ You are solo roaming in a Vagabond and jump into a gate camp with some interceptors and Arazus. How do you survive, if possible?
Hold cloak...Re-approach, wait for most of them to lolaggro. Jump, and depending on how many come through with, either gtfo, or kill the lone inty that didn’t aggro.
♥20♥ You are with a friend, both of you in supercarriers, in low-sec killing a small offline tower. Suddenly, a falcon uncloaks and 50 roleplayers bridge in on top of both of you with eight HICs and 50k dps worth of ships. How do you survive?
Not going to lie...I’ve never come across this situation, but I would do one of 3 things.
1. Light emergency cyno and try to gtfo while their gang is bridging in.
2. align, ecm burst, warp (not likely to be effective)
3. Sit back and go down titanic style. (by titanic style I mean weep and listen to Celine Dion as my sc dies)
♥21♥ You are with a friend, both of you in scrubby battlecruisers (e.g. Hurricanes or Harbingers) with weak tanks, in low sec. A Tempest aggros you under sentry fire and neutralizes all your cap, but you are able to MWD away out to 30km after taking a lot of damage. Do you leave your friend to die?
neg, the pest is most likely buffer fit (unless he’s running old school dual rep, in which case his cap should be fucked soonish depending on how he times his neuts/reps/cap inject) I would most likely be in a cane, so once out of neut/point range i would overload dps on him while having my buddy do the same, hope for the best. Also, I assume this situation means that my buddy is still in point range, so he would keep him pointed if cap allowed.
♥22♥ You are in Оld Man Star and havе intel of a Nyx warping around. Describe the steps you would take to find the Nyx.
I would get a neutral alt in a hictor(with cyno) to jump in hold cloak while scanning him down with directional. Warp‚ tackle him, light cyno. Cavalry bridgeѕ in (hopеfully more hics included) and rapes his face.
Will do sexual favors to make up for my lack of references
