Home has been raided again. It's our own fault really. We shouldn't store our Sleeper loot in the Sleepers, as they aren't that secure. And how secure does the home system currently look? Not great, with a second wormhole connecting in to us. Maybe the K162 leads to the class ...

So I don't come home with a tower. But that pretty much describes every day, so I don't think I should be judged for that. Sure, I could have destroyed the tower, after blowing up the Impel transport that carried it, but sometimes the lure of bringing home something so ...

I'm looking for a target. Nope, nothing in the home system. How about a wormhole? Scanning resolves gas, a wormhole, a data site, more gas, and, just when I think it's me and the static connection, a second wormhole. The K162 from class 4 w-space will do just fine, and ...

Old sites have dispersed, new sites have coalesced. Such is life in w-space. What's elsewhere? Two towers and a Thanatos carrier appear on my directional scanner in our neighbouring class 3 system, and I'm pushed seven kilometres from the K162 when jumping in to the system. Even without that clue ...

I was going to scan, thinking the destruction of a planet-gooing Viator would have subdued the locals, but a pilot at the tower swaps back to his Crane. I can't quite believe a second transport would be thrown in front of my ship, just to see if I was actually ...

How extensive will the constellation be tonight? I shift yesterday's thirty wormhole bookmarks—only one made outside of w-space—to a temporary folder and start afresh. The home system gives me a straightforward start, the static connection being the only wormhole and my first of the day. Jumping to the neighbouring class ...

I have a mapped constellation to roam. Let's just hope it is more active than when I uncovered it earlier, as it seemed like what few pilots were visible were pretending their towers' force fields were one-way space hides. But before I go roaming forwards, a new signature in the ...

Maybe today I can aim higher than a Heron. Popping frigates is a fun distraction, but that's all it really is. More new signatures at home could offer different directions to head, to look for opportunity, but it's just gas, gas, gas. And a bit more gas. I have no ...

Sunday, August 11th, 2013
New signatures in the home system give me a second wormhole plus a couple of sites. The K162 from class 4 w-space could be interesting, so I head backwards to start the evening, jumping in to the system to see a Cheetah covert operations boat on my directional scanner. Still ...

Is anyone out there? Hello? I'll check next door. Two canisters labelled as containing ammunition appear on a check of my directional scanner in our neighbouring class 3 w-space system, and nothing else. That's fine, as it lets me launch scanning probes at the wormhole to blanket the system and ...
