Take a screenshot featuring fireworks!

Posted by Alex Sinclair in EVE Online

Tonight marks ones of the UK's strangest holidays, Guy Fawkes' Night, which celebrates the Gunpowder Plot of 1605. Today, the British (and others) mark the occasion with bonfires and fireworks. We've been planning to run a fireworks screenshot bounty for a while, and figured this is as good of an occasion as any! You can submit up to six screenshots, but there's only one prize per person. Add some text for context, especially if the fireworks were to mark a special occasion.

I think this is a perfect place to shine some light on an interesting event, which actually quite closer to Gunpowder Plot than fireworks! It also featured quite spectacular explosions before fireworks introduction, sorta vanilla ‘fireworks’

This incident, known as the "Yulai Massacre," became infamous and led to three major changes in the game’s mechanics:

Any ship repairing an aggressor would now receive an aggressor flag and be attacked.
CONCORD police ships became invulnerable, gaining 99% damage resistance.
CONCORD’s attacks were upgraded to automatically destroy any ship, no matter its defenses.

I was there, looting CONCORD tags that I still keep as a collection, along with several corpses from Zombies Inc.
