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'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 ...

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 ...

My glorious leader is collapsing our static wormhole as I come on-line, rubbing sleep from my eyes. 'The neighbouring system has a static connection to null-sec, and is full of towers and probes.' That sounds like a good reason to look for better opportunity through a different static wormhole, and ...

I remember now. There's an N968 in this system. I just got a bit distracted by the gas harvesting operation through a K162 to class 5 w-space. But now that I have disrupted the operation, by podding the pilot hauling gas in his Badger, and fleeing from the fairly prompt ...

Gas has gone, new gas has come. Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose. My glorious leader is present and scanning, resolving a wormhole as I launch my own probes. As Fin warps to what turns out to be our static connection to class 3 w-space my probes converge ...

Fin's here, which is always a good sign. A lack of bookmarks may indicate she's currently gassing it up, but it turns out that she's just arrived and is launching scanning probes, just like me. That's just a coincidence, though, and we're probably not the same person. Yesterday's new pocket ...

Aii's in our neighbouring system, scanning amongst 'lots of towers, four piloted ships'. That sounds good to me. I poke the home system to confirm there are no new connections, then head through our static wormhole to join my colleague. Four towers light up my directional scanner from the K162, ...

Aii's here and would like to mine. I'm cool with that, just as he's cool with my desire to explore, even though it means opening our static wormhole and exposing him to additional risk. That's just the way Aii rolls. With only stale bookmarks stored I launch probes to scan ...
