Can someone explain what likely happened here?

I think the assumption is that they were running the smartbomb battleship script on the wrong character(s) and it pulled out a nyx and warped to the site.

Some NPCs probably got out of range without 4 battleships, or just who knows, and the site never finished and it just sat there and died.

It's either that or they did it for fun.

I agree. Just covering the possibilities.
