Wed, 30 April 2008 ![]() Episode 35, Apologies for the rubbish intro, it was Blinky's idea and Urban couldn't talk him out of it. Watching this might help the intro make a bit more sense. EVE Files Mirror praise be to Chribba! RAZOR Titan Down. Insurgency with a bit of help from Triumvirate. The invasion of RAZOR space if also going pretty well. Speaking of Triumvirate, Looks like they have lost a few corps whats more the reasoning behind The Illuminati. getting sack is total madness! In the south, Band of Brothers turn all their attention against Tortuga in general and MC in particular. The empire strikes back? Former friends IAC and AAA are now at each others throats, AAA are having the best of it making IAC space look like a bow tie. OOOH new feature! Ladies and Gentlemen, WDA is proud to bring you LOLMAILS, the funniest killmails we see every week. Fighting for the prize this week we have Evil Edna's uber expencive crow versus Jove Witness's omni-tanked Phobos. Got a good LOLMAIL for us to ridicule on the show? evemail the link to Urban or Winterblink! In Discussion point this week, We do a little guide to the UI and brackets, not a million miles from what Crovan did on the Drone Bay TBH, but we recorded it before we heard his show. For homework this week Blinky would like you to check out the documentary America Freedom to Fascism. In Community news, Urban finds an execlent new podcast from Van Hemlock, which goes by the imaginative name of The Van Hemlock podcast. Bacon is back! We forgot discuss it for a bit during the recording (I know, we suck!) but the guys at the Drone Bay did an excellent voice talking about it that we suggest you listen to that instead.

In the north Insurgency goes up against RAZON. Pretty even in terms of kills but Insurgency seem to have the edge so far. In the south, BOB are massing fleets and doing a pretty good job at pushing their enemies out of Querious. Good job at bouncing back! And while we are on the subject of BOB's enemies IAC have a new president. Something to do with Tryraxx nicking a Wyvern and/or pissing off AAA. Finally there has been a horrendous amount of tinfoil hattery all over the internet about a certain incident which happened this week. We suggest you check out Wranglers News Article about it. In Discussion point this week, We discuss the new 'YARR' Divsion, (shouldn't it be called 'YARRT' anyway?) and how they are looking for people to help with the new offical EVE Wiki. Very Cool We, along with GM Grimmi, also remind you that buying ISK is wrong, except if its through the the offical GTC traders. For homework this week, Urban decides at the last minute that you should check out Amazon Woman on the Moon!.

A big thank you to Zapatero and to Kami for helping with the intro. Notice how Kami starts sounding like John Cleese and ends up sounding like Tommy Cooper! EVE Files Mirror praise be to Chribba! MC goes up against Smash Alliance and RoadKill. Looks like smash Kill have put up a good fight though and MC haven't had it all its own way. In the north, Insurgency capture Phoenix Alliance space very quickly! Good job guys Jihadswarm continue their war with both miners and good taste, this time producing the most offensive EVE vid ever. Still its not all going the way of the Goonies as TeddyBr FTW anti goon mercenary army kicks some ass. Amongst his mercs is the fearsome Hello Kitty Initiative.

Mon, 17 March 2008 ![]() Show31, EPIC FAIL turns into EPIC WIN. EVE Files Mirror praise be to Chribba! Looks like some members former members of IAC were not happy with Tyraxx's return to power, so they formed Oddesey Alliance. They have then headed off to Period Basis to join Tortuga. The rumor mill suggest that IAC will not take this lying down. The MC head up north to take on PURE. Unfortunatly dj wif, one of their neighbours from Hyrda, losses his Iteron MK 3 filled with some expencive bling at a MC gate gank. In the north, the Morsus Mihi and Outbreak war grinds on. nobody seems to be in much of a rush. Tri and KIA go to war with each other, for no good reason. Given that they live miles from each other and are busy with their own games, we don't expect to see a lot of fighting. In Discussion point this week, Council of Stellar Management voting begins on the 5th May. We are still pretty much unsure about this, but we will hopfully help with debates from the candidates.

Some members of Goonswarm have decided to rename themselves Jihad Swarm' and declare war on miners in empire space. Some Denizens of New Eden, are not very happy but we personally don't mind at all.

Thu, 28 February 2008 ![]() EVE Files Mirror praise be to Chribba! Show 29, Sorry about the problems with the hosting for the last Episode, Still the file is fixed and Urban and Brent are playing their debt to society. TWD of Evolution shows off some snazzy artwork and makes a rather good post about BOB (currently) successful defense of NOL-M9. However his knowledge of history is a little bit off comparing the battle to the Alamo though, given that in reality the Texans lost that one. In the north, Triumverate are having a scrap with smashkill and friends! We knew the North couldn't stay calm for long, In Discussion point, We invite Benilopax and Lavista Vista who will soon be starting the Warp Drive Active: Industy Podcast. onto the show These guys then go and discuss Dr EyjoG's second Quarterly Economic Newsletter.

Sun, 17 February 2008 ![]() Show 28, Massive massive thanks to SUAS (shutupandshave) for making such an awesome intro and letting us use it! Also check out C4w3 video for the tune! The War against BOB has slowed down for a bit due to the effects of sovereignty. However on the f13 forums a rumor starts that Molle has handed over the reigns While this would be fun, we are pretty sure this isn't the case. What certainly isn't fun is Goon's rather nasty attacks on DICE fleet commander LadyScarlet. Not Cool guys! According to the f13 forum again CCP have taken a dim view on those launching the attacks. STOP PRESS! Red Titan Down! A sign of resurgence from Band of Brothers or too little too late? As discussed last show, AAA finish their war with KOS by kicking them out of 0.0. Knights of the Southern Cross have now disbanded. What will AAA do next though? In Discussion point, we welcome back WDA's equivalent of the Stig - Crovan! Mr C now has a An awesome blog. Go check it out Crovan provides an in-depth guide to Electronic Warfare We also discuss the upcoming changes including those mentioned in Tuxford's Blog.

Apart from playing EVE, this week Blinky and Urban have been playing Call of Duty 4 Which is so good that it makes them Swear so much the bleep machine melts! Ooops! Due to technical issues we weren't able to do our whole review of Far from Homeworld Comics. To make up for it we pimp the comics again.

Tue, 5 February 2008 ![]() Show 27, With everyone and his dog putting the boot into Band of Brothers at the moment, we decide to jump on the bandwagon too! Yes times look Bad for the Bobbits, Despite slowing down their enemies they have still lost a ton of space, being out numbered 10-1 and loosing a a Nyx along with a ton of other ships, Goon swarm titans trespassing inside their POS bubbles. Its enough to make Sir Molle start acting Churchillian. Not everyone is busy fighting BOB though. AAA and KOS are busy kicking seven bells out of each other, really for no good reason! In Discussion point, EVE Moves to Steam. Seems like a good business to Us We should point out that despite some peoples complains, you don't need Steam to download and Play EVE. You do however need it to play Portal and therefore you haven't got it already you should go and get it from here!

Sun, 20 January 2008 ![]() Show 26, sorry we are a bit late again guys, Still Blinky and Urban have been productive in proving (if proof was needed) that they really are uber-dorks. Things are looking bleak for Band of Brothers. A quick glance at the influence map Will show that they are being squeezed by Bruce, Sons of Tangra and friends in Fountain, IRON, Razor, Brotherhood and IAC in Querious meanwhile in and around Period Bias the massive scrap between BOB and the Tourtugaites continues. We also give props to Dwight Hammerhead from Sons of Tangra. Thanks for taking the time to talk to us and all the best for your alliance in 2008!

He goes through a guide on the complicated issue of gunnery concentrating on subjects such as Opital and Falloff, Signature Radius, Turret tracking speeds and Transversal velocity. Also check out CCP's guide to tracking which has some very cool flash graphs. Along with the subject of tracking, Crovan goes though the long promised guide to speed tanking. Finally Crovan attempts to get himself sacked from the MC by pointing out how Seleene's hot phone lines make him rich and demanding we link to the video of KIAEDDZ shaking his funky stuff. For homework Blinky wants you to check out the Korean gangster fest Old Boy. WDA IS BIGGER THAN WORLD OF WARCRAFT!
