That awkward moment when...
- Thread starter Samosa
- Start date
Yep, or...
...it's 2am, you've had 12 beers, you've just made 5 million grinding for a couple of hours, on your latest exit from the station from landing pad 2 with 4 million worth imperial slaves on board, you're not quite lined up with the letterbox so hit <thrust up> and hear the boosters ignite instead. Boom. Karma I suppose for my lack of trading morals, and flying under the influence of course!

After doing some bounty work and consequently getting a bounty for a misfired shot you go back to station to cash in and pay off your bounty
You cash in but forget to pay off the bounty, before you know it, you've pressed "LAUNCH"
...done that many a time.....

You interdict a pirate and haven't noticed he's in a wing of 4 , consisting of all fdl's ...
...when you just took a handfull of missions to support your favourite Power, and right after your girlfriend comes into the room to ask for some physical luv... such a hard choice! =/

...you're in the midst of a fight with a WANTED ship in a RES and all of a sudden, instead of your ship manoeuvring when you move the stick, you start swaying your head around the cockpit like Stevie Wonder. You know you've somehow invoked headlook, but have absolutely no idea how, it's not even mapped...
/cue exit game and a very long 15 seconds... (in SOLO I hasten to add)

.. in the middle of a 20 ship firefight, you accidentally graze the paint on a police viper and all of a sudden your entire radar fills with red dots.
...you have 5 million in bounty kill vouchers, you start a fight with another Anaconda, your GF decides to bury your face in her chest, and you hear a muffled but audible "shields offline".
Moment of truth.
Do you forfit 5 million plus your ship or do you sleep on the couch that night?

450Ts Gold and a few T of "illicit cargo". In a bid to not to get scanned on entry to the station and to save a few K in fines i come in very hot in a Conda, once inside the station i realise i have no docking pad, yes i then realise i have not asked for clearance right around the time red lights start flashing and alarms are going off. 180deg turn, I'm at the other end of the station and look towards the letterbox and see a T9 stuck in there flaying around the place and not going anywhere in a hurry.
Clucking Bell echoes around my cockpit !
Do i full power to shields and throttle right up and try and ram my way out or wait and see who the station kill first, me being in before he was i'm guessing me.
Screw it i thought, under 30s till I'm dust, here goes. I aimed for the biggest gap i could see which was not much being a T9 but he was twisted in there so i went for the largest part, i must of been doing around 120-130 when i jammed myself beside him, "Shields Offline" rings out and Hull working its way down nicely - !!
I was making progress, meter by meter and managed to get out with %18 left in the Hull, "Ship Scanned" rings out in the cockpit - Really? I see you in a bit of trouble there CMDR, here's a fine to help you back on your feet !
At this point i get clear of the station and re-dock the boring way.
Lesson learned for me - Always ask permission before you stick anything that belongs to you in a hole !
