We celebrate the solo kill...

Due to the holiday period, sunshine and World Cup, many corporations and organisations see a dip in numbers. In addition the emergence of StarCraft II, has seen most groups being able to cobble together small roaming gangs. However, The Bastards can and frequently operate as solo or duo gangs. I mean, why not? Nothing worse then spinning ships in your hangar and seeing an empty Corp Chat. However, it is even worse when one decides that there is nothing to do and simply disconnects from GalNet, unplugs from the pod and wanders around to seek other pleasures.

So, it is with great pleasure and some satisfaction that I can see that The Bastards frequently go out, solo and 'just do it'.

We celebrate the solo kill within the corporation with a medal - the 'Order of the Peregrine' and the reward of a T2 frigate hull of the winners choice. I have no idea why it is called the Order of the Peregrine as this award, in addition to a few others, pre-date my appointment as CEO. If some of the older hands have an idea (or anyone else for that matter) - pop a comment here for all to see.

June 2010 (June YC 112 for you RP chaps) didn't have any nominations as the corporation was involved in Alliance Tourney 8 and then Hulkageddon III.

However, the latest winner is Persephone Astrid - always a reliable fleet member, excellent support pilot and also trying on her fleet command wings. She managed to take down a crow in the much unfancied Tristan. Her account of the award was also noted down in a very well written post. I strongly recommend this post as I appear in it and yes, she's described my office accurately and makes me want to see what Incarna has to offer.

The nominations for August kill of the month is piling in however - with people trickling back into New Eden from a thousand different locations. We've had Muckalt kill a drake in his hound in one kill, Muckalt yet again destroying a hurricane in his hound and Nashh downing a hurricane in his ishkur.
