Where Do We Go From Here?

I haven't been writing as much lately. Real life has been so freaking weird. The anxiety of living in a Pandemic. The riots. The anger. Noise. Insanity. Uncertainty. I don't need to tell you, you are living in it with me. Our trip to Iceland for Fanfest was cancelled. Our Summer cruise with Eve nerds in the Baltic was cancelled. Eve North. Same. And then school, so our two boys who still live with us are home 24/7. My Wife was home for three months, working next to me in the studio. And now she has returned to an empty downtown to work in the office, one week at the office, one week at home. And that makes zero sense.
All of which, on top of my Dad's cancer (He was recently declared cancer free!) and not being able to visit family and friends - has really put everything into a weird place. And most bizarre of all is that we are all expected to just roll with it and move on like nothing is happening.
I can tell you this, creative energy does not flourish in such an environme…

The Best Advice for Eve Online

There is a lot of solid advice out there for Eve Players. "Don't fly what you can't afford to lose" is a classic. Tutorials. Blog posts. Videos. Streamers. Forums. Even Facebook groups. The list is endless and the advice is typically good, solid, and it usually means well. This post isn't intended to invalidate other advice, but I'd like to take a few minutes to point out something that most people tend to overlook. Something that lies at the heart of what it means to be successful at this crazy game.
Eve is a game played in sessions that is only won over time. Classic battles compared to wars mentality. What that time period means for each player is going to vary, but essentially and fundamentally, for you to be truly successful - you can't stop. No matter what. And before I get taken the wrong way here, let me be clear. I'm not saying that everyone who plays Eve needs to play forever. Forever is not a term I'm using. You might play for three mont…

After Hours Archive

I'm finally getting around to adding all 32 episodes of my former podcast/interview show, After Hours with Rixx Javix, to my YouTube channel. I'll be adding a new episode almost every day until they are all finally available. You can access the entire Playlist at this link.
And be sure to subscribe to myYouTube channel while you are there so you can get notifications when new content is added.
Or not, I mean that it totally up to you.

The Needlejack Truth

Our Wednesday fleet this week was yet another Crow based roam down into Pure Blind. Lufax would be FC'ing as usual. But this week had a little extra spice because I had been contacted by Richie Shoemaker (of EON Magazine fame who I've known for over a decade now) who wanted to tag along on our next Null Roam. Perfect. So I decided to make things more interesting and pick up some new Needlejack Filaments.

I was going to do this on Tuesday. But sadly Tuesday was mostly spent without power as our electrical junction box was getting a much need upgrade here at the Pirate Lord Mansion. So Wednesday morning I had to log into my Jita alt and quickly grab some filaments and then safely fly them down thru a War Dec. I admit I was in a hurry. But how complicated could it be? There are only two kinds of Needlejacks - Noise and Signal. Each of which come in 3 different flavors depending on the size of your fleet. And WHOA are they expensive!! So I picked the 3 cheapest ones I could find …

Wild Banshee Indians

Whenever my brother and I would run around like crazy people, our Mother would say, "You two are like a pack of wild banshee Indians."

The Internets say, "A banshee Indian is an Indian mythical female spirit whose wailing or appearance warns a family that one of them will soon die. Before a death occurs, the Indian banshee will go wailing and clapping hands: if the death is of a holy person, a whole chorus of banshees will wail."

Ok fine, I believe everything I read on the Internets. I don't think my Mom seriously thought my brother and I were harbingers of death, at least I hope not. I suspect what she was on about was the sounds we were probably making. When you are a kid these sounds are normal, but when you grow up and have children of your own - well then you know exactly what kind of Hell your own parents lived through.

What does any of this have to do with Eve?

The whole idea of "wild banshee indians", not the actual historical words, (but the…
