11 minute fill. Was looking for a ferry in the atlantic ocean to fill at lieutenant because I only had 30 something ERs when I saw Sir Goofy teleport to a small island on the edge of my screen (presumably also looking for a ferry). He was apparently insufficient and trapped. I don't think anyone else noticed he was insuff and stuck so I shot down his shields and got the lucky kill. After that, I struggled mightily to fill because I couldn't find a ferry and had to fill on land, KNOWING I had to fill up on ERs or suffer the consequences later. Didn't make captain until 36th minute. At that point, frog was the only other captain, but I knew some of the top lieus (Soverign, volcom, mustache, singed) were ahead of me PPH-wise so I attemped to PPH while looking for a lieu kill. Managed to stay #2 until around 50th minute, when volcom made captain, bumping me to #3. Had a feeling I needed to make major to cup. Noticed that HerO of the DaY was being chased around a bit and wasting shields so I stalked and eventually he ran out of gas. Got lucky kill on a missile shot (sorry Sigma I knew you were 1 shot off but I don't think you would have been in top 3 at captain
) at minute 56ish. There were 3 or so lieu deaths in the last minute or so and GENOCIDE made major to jump from 5th to 2nd. I would have been bumped to 4th behind him, Frog, and Volcom if I didn't make major. Noticed that lol did very well PPHwise and got a very late kill but no time to catch up on points.
I had a bad fill but was cognizant that equip management was really important in apps because it tends to get super dry on land towards the end, and got a couple of lucky breaks
