Loss through clumsiness =)

Ander·

Upon warping to a gate I met a pilot who attacked me in his taranis.
I jumped through uncertain of if he had any friends nearby.

I waited on the other side for the signs of an activating gate but it remained silent.
Upon consideration I decided to go back. I got targeted by him as soon as I uncloaked and returned fire.

I was using light ion blasters II's and so was he.
We were soon both into hull but I was able to repair some of the damage to stay up when I noticed my cap was out. My guns were off and I didnt do any damage anymore.
"Dang?", I thought. Wasn't my energy vampire running on the enemy? What went wrong? I shouldn't have emptied up that fast.

That's when it hit me, I had activated my microwarpdrive instead of a webifier.
*sigh*

Sometimes when you think you are going to win, you wont... sometimes it's simply cause you're bloody clumsy.

Lesson to self: Turn off your microwarpdrive when you arent using it!

Meh, always had a problem with spam and the serendipity blog system.

Ander, I would make it so that you have to register to comment, otherwise you end up getting loads. I at one stage was having to delete about 300 spam comments before they put in the login system on the blog.

I did the same fucking thing the other day, almost lost my ishkur to a vexor.

Live and learn.

Almost as bad as forgetting to switch on my armor hardeners on my prophecy ><

why not just move the MWD out the way of your combat modules, that way you wont make that mistake again in a hurry.
