I have fallen.
The purpose of this blog is to track my progress as I shed my FoTM-chasing skin, and return to the Path of the Minja.
I have seen the light. I have seen the error in my ways. I have seen my falling. How I forsook myself time and time again, from changing Scout suits, to entirely abandoning Scouts all together. Oh, what I fool I was.
I was unfaithful. I claimed it would never happen again. But the clarity I feel now.... It reassures me, for I know that this time, my will is infallible.
This blog will be updated daily, as I recount my reunion with my former self.
Stay tuned...

Day 1 - The Journey of 1000 Miles...
(Post #1 )
It began.
I started my journey to redemption by ensuring that I could not be tempted into transgression. I deleted all my fits that were not a Min Scout. Out went the 1-second TTK Amarr Assault, followed by the professional dancer - the Min Assault. My Forge Gun fit was no more, along with my Standard Gal Assault. All that remained was 7 or so Min Scout fits. My cleansing could begin.
I began by joining a squad with Shotty GoBang and co, and we played a few Skirms. I hadn't completely forgotten how to knife, but I definitely needed some refreshing. The first thing I relearnt was to always keep moving. Several times I died whilst simply waiting. 'Finding the best position - which is always changing - is paramount', I told myself. Pretty soon, I was feeling more confident.
Something was wrong though.
I heard a whisper. 'Where have you been...?' I was so startled that I almost cut myself. Surely just my imagination.

Day 1 - The Journey of 1000 Miles...
(Post #2)
Eventually, I created my own squad with Pseudogenes and a few other guys from NKU, plus a few O.H members. Good matches were had. One thing I found particularly remarkable was how I could be a ghost amongst chaos. Whilst all of my team was suffering and dying, I still hadn't been seen. At the end of one match, I hadn't even died.
I almost lost my life when I tried to act fancy. I charged-swiped an Apex Amarr Sentinel, and tried to finish him with a melee. Things went pear-shaped though, and I just narrowly killed him before I could be sprayed down.
That same match, I took delight in repeatedly stabbing a speed-tanked Sentinel who also brandished knives. 
I also ended up winning a knife duel against another Minja, who I promptly invited to NKU.
As the end of the first day drew to a close, I became nervous thinking about what was to come...

I hate those day's when you're just not doing good in jumpy strafy min assaults and caldari assaults, and you have to pull the Minja and start raping people. I feel OP.

Welcome back. No more dissing at least people who've ran GS for a while [pre 1.8] though. As mandatory, my GS either has

For MS though, CR/SMG. On PROTO suit i run Six Kin ACR and knives, mandatory to run knives on min scout.

Here. I'll make it easy for ya. Every time I see you in game, I'll whip out a proto minmatar assault with a six kin assault combat rifle and hunt you down with it, so you can feel my pain of every time I've been killed in a min scout by a minmatar assault

GalScout is by far the most widely used Scout, and it is no where near as popular as the MN Assault. Scouts haven't been FoTM since December; the MN Scout is most certainly not FoTM.

If you compare min scout sales from December to now, they have risen considerably. You almost never saw min scouts, and the people you saw running them were legends. These days, min scouts are prevalent everywhere. You can spot one about every match

Day 2 - 'It's all coming back to me...'
(Post #1)
Today was a good day.
I now fully realise that it is my destiny to be a Minja. Nothing feels as natural as elegantly slitting the throats of oblivious Assaults and Sentinels... I'm not as rusty as I was yesterday (pun intended  ). Remarkably, my K/D skyrocketted, compared to when I ran my Assaults. I believe my weekly K/D is now something like 5.58. I used to be milling around 3.50-4.00 when I had deterred from the Path. This just further convinces me that it's my calling to be a Minja.
Brilliant matches were had today. The highlight was probably a match where my squad and I beat a squad of FA and NF. Once again though, I tried to be fancy and finish a Sentinel with a melee, and one again, it nearly cost me my life .
Noteable people squadded with today: Master Kail, Ian the Conquer, Gunman Stylze, Solar Qoio, 1st Lieutenant Tiberius, Pocket Rocket Girl.

Day 2 - 'It's All Coming Back to Me...'
(Post #2)
What I was most proud of today was making a good Minja impression on Tibs and Solar, who will probably be FCing the PC's I'll be in, when our CEO isn't around. If I'm to gain recognition amongst the PC community for my skills as a Minja, obviously I have to run a Minja in PC!  After a quick enquiry, I was given the go-ahead to run my Minja in PC 
Finally, I managed to get Solar, Silent-Cry and Tibs to join NKU. 
As the day drew to a close, I pondered on what had convinced me to leave the Path in the first place. Looking at it now, I couldn't imagine ever wanting to run my Assaults again...
Things are looking up!
Stay tuned... O7

Well i can spot as much cal scouts and minjas as gal scouts.
Overall they are all used often.
There's only one that is forgotten. Amarr scout. I forgot thet they even exist.

Yeah, GalScouts are more numerous, but MN and CA also see a good 'bit of use. AM Scouts not so much; they took a pretty big hit last December with the EWAR changes.

1) Min Scouts are more prevalent these days because people like Dreis, Moody, and Ace Boone ran them when 30 million SP was considered Godly, and convinced others to spec into them. I have 63 million SP, what am I NOT going to spend it on? More SP, more suits
2) Welcome back to the path my Minnie Brother. It is good to see you cleansing, and making me look bad lol
3) Can't wait to read more, you have a very good style that leaves me engaged.
4) 7 Minmatar Scout fits? Geez I only have 6: Slayer, Nks Only, Dampened, Speed-tanked, Speedhacker, Speedhacker Dampened, The Cyrius-Li Moody :)
