You might heard about the new deployment of TEST alliance. Let me share with you what I wrote on TEST forums:
The new command structure is pretty good, but it makes no difference when it's empty. The only leadership change announced was the removal of Victor Villiance. No new leader was introduced, the people in the well-structured inner and outer leadership, stratop and skirmish commanders are still unknown or missing.
8 corps will be removed, the basis of their removal was not outlined. Were they removed for non-participation? Or for not authing up? Different language? Or simply not having enough "goodposters" who post "yeah it was awesome" every time a 1/4 sized Pizza fleet defeated us?
The abandonment of Delve is understandable. We aren't in the position to fight the unstoppable battle machine of the Pizza-Riot-Init coalition. I mean even PL would stand down against these powerhouses.
OK, we saw the good news, what's the bad?
Soliara and its surroundings are probably the worst place in EVE. I doubt if our enemies could pick a worse detention camp. Let's start with PvE:
Honestly I have trouble deciding if this deployment is the most incompetent action in the EVE history, or a purposeful destruction of the largest and weeks ago the most powerful alliance.
What is fundamentally wrong with the plan of BoodaBooda? There is no plan at all! The SotA states the place where TEST shall rebuild but says absolutely nothing of how to rebuild nor what to rebuild into. Compare it with Nulli's plan after they lost Delve: "we lost all our assets in the war, everyone go farm ISK in FW and we come back". They stated what they miss (ISK), the job they need to do (farming) and the goal (to come back full of ships). Do you see anything like that in this SotA? The problem with the worst constellation of the worst region isn't that it's the worst constellation of the worst region, but the fact that no one said a word what the hell TEST supposed to do there!!!
It seems the cultural war within TEST was decisively won by those who don't want to make any effort or gain any level of competency. After all, living in a space which is wanted by absolutely nobody, which is avoided even by lowsec roleplayers is probably the best place for someone who doesn't want to do anything just "have fun": spam porn and memes, duel in frigates and generally be completely useless.
Tomorrow comes a post how can other alliances benefit from this horrible situation, gaining strength and salvage what deserves to be salvaged.
PS: Before you'd think that the idiocy of TEST leadership can't be outdone, check this moron out. Especially his small lasers. This is another strong contender. And another one. And the wardecced (or suspect) 28B freighter.
