Long time, no post! Maybe you've been wondering why there hasn't been anything here recently. Well, I'll tell you: School work. This semester is kicking my butt, along with all my non-EVE related side projects! But I'm not GONE, not by a long shot. Here's a list of things I've accomplished...
-Learned to use my first T2 guns (No really, I'm not joking)
-Made lots of new awesome friends in the New Eden Racing Association
-Won over 100 million isk racing (See link above)
-Overcame my fear of training skills I'm not remapped for
See? And you all thought I was being lazy. I even have my To Do List to get done:
-Finish prepping for Season 2.0 of NERA
-Get to MEDIUM T2 guns (Still not kidding here folks)
-Train Logistics for Incursions so I can stop whining about needing money
-Make money
-Doodle more outfits
-AND MUCH MUCH MORE
So stayed tuned, my pretties! And your little dogs too!

NE-RA
So! Last Sunday I had the chance to get involved with the New Eden Racing Association. And get involved I did! If you've been looking for something fun to do in EVE that's wild and out of the ordinary, I can't suggest the NE-RA enough.
So let me give you my fast sum-up of racing. Basically, at the start of a race, the organizer announces a password for the race, and a location (So, Gablukdababaduh X Asteroid belt II). The participants race to that spot, where a secure container is. You fly to the container and unlock it using the password, wait for it to load (Which can sometimes take 30 seconds or more). Once the container opens, it contains the location of the next waypoint, and you rush off. It sounds simple, but the combination of zooming to the point, and then stopping/slowing into the 2500m area in which you can open the container, all while others are doing the same is actually a blast. Oh, and all the waypoints are in lowsec for added danger!
Anyways, there's different classes to race in (Frigates, AF, Interceptors), and people have assembled teams and everything. This season is wrapping up, so it's a little late to try and earn top spots, but there's still two races left! Everyone should come out and give it a try. It'll give you a chance to enjoy it and get a feel for it before the next seasons starts. All the racers are really friendly and want more competition! So move your asses people!
If you have any questions about racing or the league, feel free to get into contact with me via this blog, or in EVE! Or, if you'd like to find a more experienced advisor, you can post on their forums, or join the NERA Academy channel in game. And, the rules are here!
Hope to see you on the track! I'll have more fashions for you lovelies soon!
