So there I was, sniffing around the Nourv/Tama gate in a fast-locking Manticore stealth bomber, watching the traffic flow in an attempt to decide whether it was safe to jump through.
Gate fires, there’s an admonishment to criminals, and suddenly there’s a flashy red pirate sitting there in a gallente shuttle.
Control-click. Lock. One cruise missile. Boom.
Hey, look, a pod. Control-click. Lock. Cruise missile. Boom.
Mail? Why do I have mail? From Concord?
“For your termination of Nuttsauce we have paid you the bounty that was set to his head: 10,720,000 ISK.”
My first ever EVE bounty! Very cool.
I’ve never been a fan of flashy red pirates — something to do with the unfortunate loss of my first caracal — and in my experience, players with stupid sex-related jokes for names tend to be assholes. So I think I did the world a favor collecting that bounty. Then I checked the bio, and found some racist bullshit in there. All in all, an excellent expenditure of Caldari Navy cruise missiles!

Congrats on doing the world of Eve a favor!

Thank you! Those stealth bomber overkill moments don’t come along very often, but they sure are fun!
