The Conclusion
GoonSwarm are afraid to engage us in thier own territory. Like so many before them they have gone on the offensive in another territory while we dismantle their homeland.
War Fatigue is showing already with a drop in the number of suicide pilots into S-U. They told us they love it but they don't appear to be loving it very much right now.
Shortly we will begin the removal of every pos in syndicate.
The Goons 0.0 dream is over. You realize that is a goon alt since they stole the BoB name for themselves. You should check the date on the thread. They only had the BoB name since Feb 2009, not Aug 2006. From the comment I thought it was a new thread, because I thought the OP of this thread mentioned that BoB noob-bashed the goons back in 2006.
Moral of the story: Check the date.

6/18 Update:
With the utter rout of our ancient enemies, reportable news slows to a trickle as resistance has collapsed. The 'news' simply becomes a catalogue of towers destroyed. Every tower in 49- that has come out has been killed. At this moment only 16 remain of the 49 which once stood. By the end of US primetime tonight, 49 will be completely cleared and flip to neutral sovereignty at downtime. We will capture the station and probably continue camping it until sov flips, to prevent any RKZ assets getting out.
Our dreads found themselves bored between 49 kills, so we reinforced RKZ towers in NPC Delve (KFIE, A-E) and downed the jammer and reinforced 1-SMEB.
Our big formup today is at 16:00 but we might go down a jammer or something out of sheer restlessness. There remain a few Sov3s in Querious that need to be expunged.
Let's check on the war in the east, now...
Edit: IRON has no sov anymore, btw. Despite that, their membership hasn't changed much in the last 12 days.
Edit 2: There are rumors on SHC that RA is disbanding, or at least "reforming".

Seoul_Power in the CoX-Thread posted a MP3 of the "State of the Goonion", the Goon Directorate held: [url blocked]
Some interesting talking points: - United Legion will move to Goonspace, one way or another. Either the whole alliance or it will split and some of the Corps join Goonfleet. - Kraftwerk was asked by Atlas and AAA to betray Red Alliance (like everyone does nowadays), but they flipped them the bird and are now actively fighting on RAs side. - Oprah: "Everyone gets a Titan!" Well, not everyone. But they say everyone who has the money and wants one, gets one. Additionally, poor Goons can win one in a Titan Lottery. Thats like playing Bingo with some Russians and winning a Nuke. - Jihadswarm (griefing in empire space) will be bigger as before and wardec random empire alliances just for fun. - Goonswarm is dumping outposts left and right. One anonymous Goon financed two Outposts on his own. There will be much more Sov4-Systems in Delve and Querious.

Holy hell Red Alliance got Haargothed D:
Executor corp taken over by an outsider. Looking like he's booting all the RA corps and bringing in his own, as well as setting -A- blue. They claim they'll be abandoning RA's systems, so there could be a bit of a land grab there. Where will all the corps that get kicked or leave go?
So much for Napping ending with Kenny's defeat. -A- just keeps expanding theirs. I wonder if Kenny is kicking themselves for not holding out for another few days.

This is similar to Haargoth in some ways, but it wasn't an established director doing it, it was apparently an entire corp's leadership that handed it over to Daira Lir. We've been told a good portion of RA is very unhappy about this. We're already feeling insulted enough seeing Daira Lir keep control of C-J, that's not just a place of pride for Russians, but if Kenny reside in Insmother, it's going to be fire and brimstone. Daira's doing this all under the guise of "abolishing the council" which is to say that he's removing all say among the member corps.
Red Alliance ran on a very different governing platform from most other alliances, they were a confederacy, all corporations had a voice and certain rights that the CEO couldn't impose upon. I'm not sure how many other Russian Alliances operate like this, but I know AAA doesn't, but Legion of xXDeathXx and Solar Fleet might. Hopefully this whole thing with RA being dragged through the mud might make Mactep realize that he's being an idiot and come and finally help us out. The Southeast has always been a very unstable place, but this whole thing is going to turn Insmother into a free for all.
I genuinely hope that we can capture C-J back from Daira, but that's something that can only happen if we have a very large Russian contingent help us take it as well, I can't imagine it looking good among the Russians any other way.

@Empyrean: Yeah that is basically how I would describe it as well :D
There seem to be a few hints that some action will be going on up north again so will see what -A- and Co. Can bring to have fun with us up north

There were enough oldschool Russian players with active characters in the executor corp to vote the Haargoth wannabe out and they're in the process of reinviting everyone. AAA just burned a full director level spy for nothing. :p

Also, there are rumors of Kenny moving to Insmother. Wonder how that will work out.

RA has been in situations far worse than they are now, proclaiming them dead in their current state makes me think you don't know the history of the alliance.
It's very likely Goonfleet will be heading there too in the not so distant future (49-u's last batch of towers are being destroyed right now).

It's very likely Goonfleet will be heading there too in the not so distant future (49-u's last batch of towers are being destroyed right now). Yeah they will survive, but they are moving to Venal and giving up all their Eastern Holdings and likely will no longer be very relevant. They are booting some corps and taking in some Error. corps.
From A Red Alliance Poster:
For all of you, who wants to know what really happened, I'll give you some insider information(I can post on CAOD now without fear of prosecution, yay!). The leaders of two our corporations(WT and OMNYX) thought, what they are doing all the dirty work and other corps are just slackers. And OMNYX was our executor corp. So, because of this feeling, what others are unworthy, they decided to switch sides and sold out our ticker to the Daira Lir(CEO of 404 alliance). Most of old corporations will be kicked out(they really thought what we would join them willingly? 0_o) and corps from Error alliance will join in. That's it. RA will abandon all claimed systems except the C-J6 and become roaming entity(based in Venal). There will be no more red colour in the east. Some of you will enjoy this, some of you will be sad as I am, others - will not care at all. Everything as usual. At least - we outlived BoB. Time to look for new home...

The coup was stopped before it could even finish.
(1:00:06 AM) P.D.: ahahahahah (1:01:03 AM) P.D.: Fireknight got ally executor, and kicked all Daira Lir corps. (1:01:25 AM) P.D.: what a epic fail in stealing RA ticker (1:03:18 AM) P.D.: looks like it's too early to bury RA.
EDIT: Which is what Aurra a few posts above. The claimings of moving to Venal etc were made by the "new" leadership, which just fucked up big time in their hostile takeover, and has now been kicked out.

To tell you the truth they would of been far off better in Venal. Getting back to their roots and reclaiming their name of "terror" in EvE. RA like BoB has not been itself in a very very long time. The move to Venal would of prob been really great for their alliance but now they'll just chill out and die slowly.

Update: Red Alliance loses nearly all their sov. Now time for the mad dash for insmother. Wonder who will end up there. I'm guessing either Atlas or Kenny, or possibly Aggression and alittle bit of Scorched Earth; Goons and -A- seem content to NAP for now. IRC and Solar Fleet might also try to take a piece. I forsee a massive reset coming between Goonswarm+PL and NC, and alot of good fights. However, Red alliance is not dead, and will be back. To think otherwise is to be foolish, the corporations and the pilots are too close to disband. So will BoB (no way will BNC, Finfleet, Evolution, and RKZ split ways), but both will need drastic changes in leadership to become relevant again. The leadership for both has been absolutely horrid, and infighting has seriously screwed both alliances. We'll see what happens over the next couple weeks.

6/19 Mittani update:
+ Show Spoiler +49 is ours as of downtime; sov is neutral because no hostile towers remain, and our own towers are so recent that their claim hasn't ticked in. We captured the station, had yet another round of blue-on-blue doomsday drama, then purged 1-SMEB of all hostile towers. RKZ's last station, gone. Their only Sov3 in Delve, gone. Another KFIE tower was killed, as well. The big news from yesterday is that Daira Lir utterly screwed up his/her/its attempted takeover of RA. The plan was to have the CEO of OMNYX, the executor, let in a ton of Daira-controlled alt corps (23? some obscene number, Daira has a ton of corps left over from running -A- logistics) who would then vote to railroad other corps into or out of the alliance at will. Daira got together all of RA's 'new allies' - AAA, SE, ROL, Atlas - on teamspeak and gave a grandiose speech about how he runs RA now and how it will be taking a new direction, abandoning territory and invading the North. Unfortunately, Daira doesn't understand the game as well as the RA CEOs. While Daira slept, a vote was called, executorship moved to a corp actually loyal to RA, and all of Daira's alt corps kicked from the alliance. You see, a new corporation can't participate in alliance votes until after 7 days in the alliance. Oops! We are now looking into preparing the foreign legion - which doesn't formally exist yet, as if formality matters - to deploy to Insmother to support the loyalist RA forces against the hordes of mewling rabble trying to defile the holy land. I hope to have more details for those interested when the initial scouting is sorted out. This will be completely voluntary, for those who want to go support our oldest allies; if you're burned out on 0.0 war for god's sakes enjoy the thunderdomes, wardecs, and general bikeriding. We have a little more work left to do in Querious. There are some faggot towers remaining in Q2 (three of them) and AO. Hopefully we can siege all that remains today and have the whole mess finished by Sunday.
tl;dr: Goonfleet will be participating in the RA campaign by the end of the week. It hasn't been made official technically but there are already Goons moving assets in that direction, frothing at the mouth to assist our longest standing allies in the game.

Yeah I guess . I'm really interested in how NC and XXDeathXX will side in the ongoing conflict, or if they will just stay out of it and fight Solar/Tri.
