A couple of days ago I encountered the first serious attempt to gank my shiny legion. I was happilly flying around killing sleepers in a class 3 wormhole close to where we live. This wormhole had one exit to another wormhole which lead the way back home. It also had two wormholes leading into low-sec. Because of this I paid extra attention to my directional scanner. This turned out to be a good thing.
After a couple of hours of killing sleepers I noticed a cheetah. I asked on ventrilo and in alliance chat if it was one of ours, since I didn’t recognize the ship name. Noone responded so I assumed it was a hostile. A few minutes later combat scanner probes popped up on my scanner. Ok this was definately a hostile. I was still working on the sleeper site and decided to continue doing that for now. However the paranoia level was raised to level 5, so I made scans every few seconds to see if more poeple showed up.
About 30-45 minutes later suddenly quite a few ships popped up on my scanner, a t3 cruiser, absolution, zealot, arazu and a couple more. Click warp, I’m outta here! Made a funny comment in local about me leaving 
Turns out they knew me a bit from my blog. So shout-out to you guys (can’t remember the corp name, sorry). It was a good attempt, lucky for me my paranoia saved me this time.
Yesterday the tables were turned. On ventrilo an alliance mate said he had scanned an abaddon and tengu in a class 2 wormhole close by. There were no posses on scan, so they were in space somewhere. We quickly assembled a few pilots and decided we’d try to gank them. I logged in my prober alt and jumped in the class 2 wormhole in a covert ops. They were still here. I launched the combat probes and cloaked up. A few minutes of probing and I found the abaddon. Meanwhile the rest of our gang was waiting in the wormhole next door at the entrance. I warped to the abaddon at 10km. When I arrived I was in the middle of nowhere and the abaddon was gone. A quick check on the scanner reveiled they where still in the system. And now they had drones out. So they were running some site.
Back to the probing then a couple of minutes later I found the abaddon again. This time I warped to him at 100km, because he was almost certainly in a sleeper site. When I warped I got a message of a Perimeter Hangar anomoly, so definately in a sleeper site. I came out of warp and saw both the abaddon and tengu busy working on the sleepers. I bookmarked a closeby wreck, warped to a planet and back to the bookmark at 10km. I ordered the rest of the fleet to jump in and stay cloaked. I landed about 12km of the tengu and ordered the gang to warp to me at 0. When everyone was in warp the covert ops warped out to a safespot.
Our fleet arrived on top of both the abaddon and tengu. Quickly a heavy interdictor bubble was put up. Points went on the tengu, while the abaddon got primaried. This ship melted in a few seconds. Then we started on the tengu. This went down nicely too. After they went down we still had a couple of sleepers in the site. So we finished the site as well. The loot we got wasn’t great, but still a nice Caldari Navy Large Shield Booster and a Caldari Navy Explosion Dampening Field.
So now you know: paranoia is good, mmmkay?
