Ransoming in New Eden isn't just about taking someone's money though we do love isk. Rather, it is the payment of a victim (er customer) for safe passage through space or for us to let you go. A bit like wheel clamping I suppose.
Now, we normally take isk as payment but occasionally, we took other forms of payment. Yes, we all have heard about the infamous ransom payment to a pirate corp (BYDI?) of REAL PIZZA delivered to someone via Dominoes. My story is third hand so if someone can pass on some information; that would be great.
However, not to be outdone - we've done our own and yessir, we're Bastards and as part of our ransoms we have decided that a jolly song would be enough to satisfy our urges. No isk, just a song. A good song mind and one of our chosen but if we think it's good - you can leave; scott free. Scouts honour.
So if you happen to be passing through low-sec space, you see a Bastard on scan and have no isk and then you get scrambled...
Then it might be time to warm up those vocal cords........

*Giggles* This *almost* makes me want to get caught by you guys so I am forced to sing one of the VERY raunchy songs my ex-Navy husband is so fond of sharing at parties (much to the shock of people with more refined taste than ours *grin*).
ReplyDeleteThat guys is bloody fantastic and you even recorded it.
ReplyDeleteEpic
The pizza delivery was Sanguine Legion (F1END), run by Mi'Lai
ReplyDeleteI think requesting songs as ransom is an original idea.
