Scorched Ocean

Patch tried to give me a nickname.
"Hey Bubbles, that's your new name now... Bubbles, get it?"
When my nickname catches on, can I sit at the cool kid's table then?

I taunt them:
Hey AngryAsian, my bubble expires in 7 minutes. Get in line for the event, and bring a good fleet, you'll fail the first time.
Of course my bubble still had 17 hours left on it, but I do enjoy watching the monkey's dance for me. I told him to enjoy the ride home, someone bubbled me before he got there. He pretended not to be aggravated.

I look around at all the empty spots where Sharkz alliance was the day before. Just like I had told the sector when we showed up, "by day 4, most of you will move on, cuz this sector just isn't fun anymore". I made a mockery of their alliance leaders every few hours, spouting lies and pretending to be the victim of their bullying. Slowly, the rot set into their private chats and their malcontent grew to the point where TheMuse knew he had to get the flock out of here. One alliance down, one to go.

When HS Angry Asian did end up hitting me the next day, he failed horribly, then told me I had a good base and proceeded to stick his nose up my anus. I explained that there was no amount of nicety that'll get this pirate to enjoy his company. His crew is pathetic and we're not leaving until they are gone.

"BONDAI! S.O.S. at YellowDevil's base!"
"omg Bondai, sos at Sloaney's base too"
Did Hit Squad suddenly get bold again? I thought we had them relatively beaten down by now... but wait, thats not Hit Squad, who I've come to affectionately call Shiz Squad. Thats SeaDogs. SD alliance has arrived. Wonder who brought them here. Could get ugly.

There are four different players surrounding my friends' bases. I start launching longship fleets to scout what they're using, and I wait till they've engaged someone else before I start the attack. Several gunwolf and missilewolfs, a few FFs and HHs in there with long range missiles... some pretty expensive fleets there. I sink 2 fleets with my seawolf before i get sent home in a box. Then I throw two fleets of levis at them and sink a few Hit Squads, that came to watch, and seadogs that are talking trash like crazy.

Hit Squad is kissing up to the seadogs, and SD have already started trashing me personally. It appears as if they showed up as a result of my actions here. I hope so, I love having an impact on other people's lives. It  makes me feel warm inside.

"Bondai, come out of that bubble before we come over there and kill you."
Interesting thought guys, but my bubble has 7 more minutes on it. You'll have to try harder.

Of course, their best coiner, SD Crusader comes with his Siege missile FF fleet. He sits there and goads me, thinking I'm the kind of person that'll make myself vulnerable to be attacked while legitimate threats are waiting. I told him to enjoy his ride home too.

SeaDogs could be a serious  problem. I just threw all  my fleets at them, and I'm looking at 14 hours of repairs and I was in the process of gathering resources to do researches in 3 buildings. Hmm. That'll just have to wait. This is a war sector, and we came here to destroy everyone.

I let Sloaney and my friends know that today was not the day to be a hero, and to keep to the longships and avoidance... wait for SeaDogs to start hitting Shiz Squad instead. They have big mouths, and will be the only fun target for the seadogs by the end of the day. I spent much of the rest of the day with my family... watching movies, enjoying the day.

Next day, SeaDogs had utterly destroyed Hit Squad, and they were now bubbling each other to avoid further injury. I trash talk Hit Squad so heavily and ruthlessly that the seadogs are laughing at them, and patting me on the back. When my bubble is about to expire, I invite their biggest hitter to my base after watching him hit base after base after base. He shows me what a Siege Missile FF fleet looks like, and how effective they are. Oh my... I must build mine like that. He levelled me and was barely scratched. I thanked him in no uncertain terms. Sloaney took notes too.

We still have two days left in 429, and this place is already utterly scorched. I didn't mean for it to work out this way, but it couldn't have gone any smoother. Bubbles needs a new sector.
