Podded!


Podded for the first time ever!

On Sunday morning a wormhole opened into a clean type 4 system when most of the corporation was online. So we promptly went about harvesting the goodies. Just before downtime I asked for someone to sit on the wormhole so Carraig could warp to them and then home. Mono volunteered but went to the outbound wormhole not the wormhole heading home. We both jumped through, realised the mistake, jumped back and downtime hit. Carraig was stranded.
When the server went back up Slay went to rescue her before Aileen and myself went into town for lunch. He jumped to the wormhole connecting to the home system, jumped through with the intention of giving Carraig a target and promptly got hit by an Azaru who shredded the Iteron III that Slay was flying.
Carraig in the Retriever warped to the dying Slay and straight through the wormhole without any trouble and then home. When I realised Slay was under attack, I must have given up on the Iteron and prepared myself to warp through in the capsule. Unfortunately I kept getting ‘Session Change in progress’ and in surprisingly short time, found myself back in Duripant thinking that only that morning I had commented on how safe the home system felt.
Drifnir was good enough to find me a connection to high-sec for Slayfoe to get back to the POS system in a PVP Thorax.
Lesson learnt? Well if you can’t get through the wormhole then warp elsewhere instead. He probably had a point on me (preventing me warping out) but I’ll never know.
