Fin's next door, and is a bit of a dawg. She's heard I like finding wormholes leading to class 3 w-space systems through wormholes leading to class 3 w-space systems, and has delivered. I jump to our neighbouring system, get a sitrep on the three towers, unpiloted Prorator transport, and ...

I read with interest Mabrick's musings on the state of combat, with regards to the forthcoming changes to the targeting user interface. 'I find nothing as unrealistic in Eve Online as the combat', he says. Why is this? Because
I see perfectly well all my "enemies" in the [overview]. I can ...

I'm back. Fin's here too, and is scouting around the already scanned w-space constellation. So is anything out there? 'Yes.' Oh, good. 'And no.' There is a K162 from class 5 w-space newly connecting to our home system and ships have been passing between there and an empire space connection ...

Who can collapse a static wormhole and resist looking through the new one? Not me! I was going to take a break, but the temptation of missing a planet goo-collecting hauler being wildly reckless in the new w-space constellation is too much to bear, so I swap back to my ...

Another early romp around w-space has me alone and with no new signatures to resolve in the home system, without anything to do but jump through our static wormhole to look for activity. The neighbouring class 3 w-space system looks clear on my directional scanner, but with three planets out ...

An early look for an easy mark in w-space has me resolving our static wormhole and jumping to the neighbouring class 3 w-space system. And already I may have been busted. My directional scanner shows me a single core scanning probe, which could have detected the K162 popping in to ...

A glitch has me off-line for a few days, and now I'm back and wondering how much has changed. Maybe some buttons have been moved, or wormholes have stopped existing, and perhaps I can blame any of this for whatever shortcomings I'll have this evening. One change I notice when ...

The last signature in the class 3 w-space system resolves to be a radar site, just like the other two non-wormhole signatures. Those sites are pretty useless in w-space, which is why they tend to get ignored, but I don't really mind. I don't even mind that the two wormholes ...

All alone, so sad. I'll be scanning for adventure and opportunity, which shows me immediately that the few remaining anomalies we had have been dispersed. That sickens me. What kind of twisted mind would activate another system's sites simply out of spite? It's disgraceful. In other news, a new signature ...

I turn up after Fin turns up. 'Just the two signatures, resolving the static.' That saves me the bother of launching probes in our home w-space system, as our static wormhole is accompanied only by an expected ladar site. I merely create a fleet of the two of us for ...
