It has been a while since I last had something of note to say, but I believe I can make up for it with this. Not only was I able to acquire a considerable amount of credits by basically providing nothing to a certain zoner, I also submitted my fair share to the LH R&D for the Contribution criterion. Who said sharing isn't caring, right?
In regards to more recent things: There was an incident today in which I managed to secure my first murder for the Deadliness criterion. Really basic stuff, if I'm honest. There was barely any challenge coming from this one, although the equipment he sported should have been able to at least put up a modicum of resistane to be ultimately overcome by superior wit and technology. It was with this bit of disappointment that I happened upon something more interesting in the sense that it provided some entertainment. I have to admit, from what I gathered, his mental interior equipment wasn't all too riveting, but it was a good first practice in the art of mania interrogation.
Furthermore, I would hereby state my intent to soon lead a lockdown operation, preferably in Manchester. That would be all.
[04.11.2016 21:33:01] Hans.Kolman: Hey!
[04.11.2016 21:33:07] LH~Gustav.Graves: Well, well, what's this? Aren't you a bit far from home, lad?
[04.11.2016 21:33:24] Hans.Kolman: This ship is my home, lad.
[04.11.2016 21:33:35] Hans.Kolman: It is what enables me to work.
[04.11.2016 21:33:54] Hans.Kolman: What is it you want?
[04.11.2016 21:33:58] LH~Gustav.Graves: Reeeally now? Sounds like a dangerous line of work?
[04.11.2016 21:34:13] LH~Gustav.Graves: So much that could go wrong, so many bad people out there.
[04.11.2016 21:34:18] Hans.Kolman: Well, when I signed up, I thought it was the safest thing to do!
[04.11.2016 21:34:26] Hans.Kolman: Deliver x from point a to point b.
[04.11.2016 21:34:33] Hans.Kolman: Turns out, it's not so safe after all.
[04.11.2016 21:34:40] LH~Gustav.Graves: Did you now? What would be inserted for X?
[04.11.2016 21:34:56] Hans.Kolman: Well, depends on the client's demands.
[04.11.2016 21:35:12] Hans.Kolman: Sometimes it's food stuff, sometimes electronics...
[04.11.2016 21:35:34] LH~Gustav.Graves: Aha. Food for the starving Crayterians?
[04.11.2016 21:35:47] Hans.Kolman: Not really, I don't venture that far out, oh no sir!
[04.11.2016 21:35:48] LH~Gustav.Graves: Heard it's still bad despite Yuma.
[04.11.2016 21:36:07] Hans.Kolman: I wished to earn my living in Liberty, the name sounded appealing.
[04.11.2016 21:36:18] Hans.Kolman: I don't feel so Libertated...
[04.11.2016 21:36:31] LH~Gustav.Graves: And yet you are here. How does it feel?
[04.11.2016 21:36:42] Hans.Kolman: Honestly? I fear for my life!
[04.11.2016 21:36:52] Hans.Kolman: I almost just not got arrested.
[04.11.2016 21:37:08] LH~Gustav.Graves: *He sneers* How so. Thought you'd speed in the lanes?
[04.11.2016 21:37:16] Hans.Kolman: Not even that.
[04.11.2016 21:37:20] Hans.Kolman: Let me explain.
[04.11.2016 21:37:41] Hans.Kolman: This drugged out junkie by the name Luka accused me of smuggling.
[04.11.2016 21:37:46] Hans.Kolman: Guess what happened?
[04.11.2016 21:38:07] LH~Gustav.Graves: *He barks a laugh* Isn't that some FL ER dude?!
[04.11.2016 21:38:09] Hans.Kolman: A navy battlecruiser showed up, a lot of ships from the 5th showed up, and they detained me.
[04.11.2016 21:38:14] Hans.Kolman: Yeah, that's him!
[04.11.2016 21:38:34] Hans.Kolman: So, I had nothing in my cargo hold at the time.
[04.11.2016 21:38:37] Hans.Kolman: Nothing, empty.
[04.11.2016 21:38:41] LH~Gustav.Graves: Pfff! Sorry, but you really deserved that one. Getting ratted out by that guy.
[04.11.2016 21:38:51] Hans.Kolman: Why did I deserve that?
[04.11.2016 21:39:22] LH~Gustav.Graves: Takes a special kind of retardedness to get burned by that water-headed dunce.
[04.11.2016 21:39:57] Hans.Kolman: So was it my fault?
[04.11.2016 21:40:16] Hans.Kolman: Please let me finish my story, you did ask what happened.
[04.11.2016 21:40:34] LH~Gustav.Graves: Oh please, delight me.
[04.11.2016 21:40:37] Hans.Kolman: Right, so the Navy detained me, and they interrogated me and Luka.
[04.11.2016 21:40:52] Hans.Kolman: Luka claimed he was my complice during a smuggling operation.
[04.11.2016 21:41:00] Hans.Kolman: The Navy fined him 5 million credits for that.
[04.11.2016 21:41:12] Hans.Kolman: Even though there was no proof whatsoever that this ever took palce.
[04.11.2016 21:41:16] Hans.Kolman: Except his word.
[04.11.2016 21:41:32] Hans.Kolman: Eventually, they let me go because there was no evidence of me having broken the law.
[04.11.2016 21:41:34] LH~Gustav.Graves: Navy is quite greedy, aren't they?
[04.11.2016 21:41:49] Hans.Kolman: Well, the battlecruiser captain reaaaallly wanted to get at me.
[04.11.2016 21:41:56] LH~Gustav.Graves: What do you think they'd've done if there actually was evidence, just hypothetically.
[04.11.2016 21:42:15] Hans.Kolman: Well, I was first accused of carrying cardamine, then artifacts, then...women...
[04.11.2016 21:42:26] Hans.Kolman: And then there was this junker who said the Navy shot people for less than that.
[04.11.2016 21:42:42] Hans.Kolman: So...I dread to imagine what would have happened if I was actually guilty.
[04.11.2016 21:42:48] LH~Gustav.Graves: *He puts a hand on a console* Say, do you know who I am? Read that transponder?
[04.11.2016 21:43:01] Hans.Kolman: A...hacker?
[04.11.2016 21:43:16] LH~Gustav.Graves: That's a bingo, lad.
[04.11.2016 21:43:31] LH~Gustav.Graves: What did you learn this day. Do tell me.
[04.11.2016 21:43:55] Hans.Kolman: Well, if you don't watch yourself, the Navy might fine you for trying to do a good deed.
[04.11.2016 21:44:25] Hans.Kolman: Or have you kicked out of Liberty due to a baseless accusation as that captain wanted...
[04.11.2016 21:44:32] LH~Gustav.Graves: *Ignoring the answer for now* I mean, I wouldn't dream of doing some mischief to someone who's realized that the Navy-
[04.11.2016 21:45:01] LH~Gustav.Graves: is just as corrupt as the government it serves. Though I might overlook something when I try and secure your records on the-
[04.11.2016 21:45:10] LH~Gustav.Graves: neural net. Wouldn't want them to find anything, right?
[04.11.2016 21:45:33] Hans.Kolman: Please don't leak that stuff...I am honestly fearing for my life here!
[04.11.2016 21:45:55] LH~Gustav.Graves: *Suavely* Are you now?
[04.11.2016 21:46:05] LH~Gustav.Graves: Tell me more about it.
[04.11.2016 21:46:43] Hans.Kolman: Well, yes. I've been called a scum and almost got arrested while having nothing on me!
[04.11.2016 21:46:52] Hans.Kolman: What if I DID have the items I was accused of?
[04.11.2016 21:47:14] Hans.Kolman: And not to mention, the very person who informed them, got fined by them for doing it.
[04.11.2016 21:47:24] Hans.Kolman: 5 million credits, can you believe that.
[04.11.2016 21:47:49] LH~Gustav.Graves: Sounds excessive. Must be a huge sum for a man like you.
[04.11.2016 21:48:15] Hans.Kolman: It wasn't even for me. I fly a transport. The man who was fined was flying a shuttle.
[04.11.2016 21:48:31] Hans.Kolman: He couldn't even afford a transport, how is he going to afford that fine and still put food on the table?
[04.11.2016 21:49:18] Hans.Kolman: And here is where it gets weird.
[04.11.2016 21:49:32] Hans.Kolman: They fined him, saying that he was a complice to a smuggling operation.
[04.11.2016 21:49:53] Hans.Kolman: But after the fine was handled, they let me go, saying they have no proof that the smuggling ever took place.
[04.11.2016 21:50:31] LH~Gustav.Graves: How despicable of him. You should put a bounty on his head.
[04.11.2016 21:50:41] Hans.Kolman: On who's head?
[04.11.2016 21:50:47] Hans.Kolman: The officer?
[04.11.2016 21:50:55] LH~Gustav.Graves: Him or that Luka.
[04.11.2016 21:51:18] Hans.Kolman: Well...
[04.11.2016 21:51:34] Hans.Kolman: I don't know, I might need those credits to pay the government's fines instead.
[04.11.2016 21:51:46] LH~Gustav.Graves: Well, /did/ you smuggle?
[04.11.2016 21:51:51] Hans.Kolman: No!
[04.11.2016 21:52:02] LH~Gustav.Graves: *He taps the console* Mr. Kolman...
[04.11.2016 21:52:06] Hans.Kolman: Yes?
[04.11.2016 21:52:15] LH~Gustav.Graves: Yes or no?
[04.11.2016 21:52:32] Hans.Kolman: Ehm...
[04.11.2016 21:52:38] Hans.Kolman: Yes.
[04.11.2016 21:53:08] LH~Gustav.Graves: What's that? I thought I heard a pig squeak. Can you do that louder?
[04.11.2016 21:53:16] Hans.Kolman: YES!
[04.11.2016 21:53:27] LH~Gustav.Graves: What did you do?
[04.11.2016 21:53:46] Hans.Kolman: Apparently, the law in Liberty says you cannot carry more than 650 persons onboard anything than a liner...
[04.11.2016 21:53:53] Hans.Kolman: I carried way beyond that number.
[04.11.2016 21:54:44] LH~Gustav.Graves: Oh! A slaver? How'd you think all those people would fit!? Want to stack them?!
[04.11.2016 21:55:15] Hans.Kolman: Well...
[04.11.2016 21:55:43] Hans.Kolman: I managed to fit over three thousand persons on this transport.
[04.11.2016 21:56:16] Hans.Kolman: Make them lay down, and stack them on top of each other.
[04.11.2016 21:56:31] LH~Gustav.Graves: *Disgusted* How... vile that must've been. The smell.
[04.11.2016 21:56:40] Hans.Kolman: My door is sealed shut.
[04.11.2016 21:56:44] Hans.Kolman: I didn't smell a thing.
[04.11.2016 21:57:13] LH~Gustav.Graves: How do you sleep at night? Imagine you were in that cargo hold.
[04.11.2016 21:57:23] Hans.Kolman: I was, I was stacking them.
[04.11.2016 21:57:59] LH~Gustav.Graves: Funny, aren't we? Would you like me to pry you out of that ship and ship you off to Malta?
[04.11.2016 21:58:10] Hans.Kolman: I was actually en route to Malta.
[04.11.2016 21:58:34] LH~Gustav.Graves: Gets a whole different meaning working on the Cardamine fields yourself, wouldn't you agree.
[04.11.2016 21:58:56] Hans.Kolman: Well, I got into the slave trade to fund my cardamine addiction.
[04.11.2016 21:59:23] Hans.Kolman: What are you saying...?
[04.11.2016 21:59:42] LH~Gustav.Graves: Cardamine addicted and still... *He holds his temples* It is beyond me how you can still be so... /moronic/.
[04.11.2016 22:00:16] LH~Gustav.Graves: Repeat it. Go ahead. *He taps the console*
[04.11.2016 22:00:27] Hans.Kolman: I got into the slave trade to fund my cardamine addiction.
[04.11.2016 22:01:07] LH~Gustav.Graves: You are a worthless junkie, not better than the corporates sitting on Pittsburgh creating all those people.
[04.11.2016 22:01:14] LH~Gustav.Graves: Repeat that.
[04.11.2016 22:01:31] Hans.Kolman: I am a worthless junkie, not better than the corporates sitting on Pittsburgh creating all those people.
[04.11.2016 22:02:07] LH~Gustav.Graves: And what am I?
[04.11.2016 22:02:20] Hans.Kolman: You are a Hacker.
[04.11.2016 22:02:38] LH~Gustav.Graves: *He taps the console* What does that enable me to do with you right now?
[04.11.2016 22:02:50] Hans.Kolman: I don't know...hack my ship I guesS?
[04.11.2016 22:02:58] Hans.Kolman: Wait, are you going to hack me?!
[04.11.2016 22:03:33] LH~Gustav.Graves: Mr. Kolman. *A small pause* Did you ever try to breathe with no air?
[04.11.2016 22:03:56] Hans.Kolman: Yeah sure, when I was kid wh-
[04.11.2016 22:04:19] Hans.Kolman: *Noises can be heard through the comms* The air filter broke or...
[04.11.2016 22:04:24] Hans.Kolman: Oh crap.
[04.11.2016 22:04:31] Hans.Kolman: *Heavy breaths are heard*
[04.11.2016 22:04:37] LH~Gustav.Graves: A bad feeling, isn't it?
[04.11.2016 22:04:45] Hans.Kolman: Make it stop!
[04.11.2016 22:04:51] Hans.Kolman: *Suffocating noises*
[04.11.2016 22:04:52] LH~Gustav.Graves: What am I, Mr. Kolman?
[04.11.2016 22:04:53] Hans.Kolman: please!
[04.11.2016 22:05:08] Hans.Kolman: I-I beg you
[04.11.2016 22:05:25] LH~Gustav.Graves: You are worthless, Mr. Kolman. What am I?
[04.11.2016 22:05:56] Hans.Kolman: You-a *suffocating noises continue*
[04.11.2016 22:06:21] LH~Gustav.Graves: *Whispering* Just say it and it might stop.
[04.11.2016 22:07:16] Hans.Kolman: *suffocating noises continue* h-hero
[04.11.2016 22:07:31] LH~Gustav.Graves: I am your better, Mr. Kolman. Say it.
[04.11.2016 22:07:36] Hans.Kolman: Y-yes
[04.11.2016 22:07:42] LH~Gustav.Graves: Say it!
[04.11.2016 22:07:57] Hans.Kolman: *Gasp* you *gasp* are my bet-
[04.11.2016 22:07:58] Hans.Kolman: -ter
[04.11.2016 22:08:06] LH~Gustav.Graves: Good. *He releases the console*
[04.11.2016 22:08:15] Hans.Kolman: *A heavy inhalation is heard*
[04.11.2016 22:08:24] LH~Gustav.Graves: Hope you'll find your luck.
[04.11.2016 22:08:30] Hans.Kolman: *The inhalation is followed by a series of coughs*
[04.11.2016 22:08:32] LH~Gustav.Graves: Your ilk doesn't live long.
[04.11.2016 22:08:39] Hans.Kolman: I can see that now.
