Getting more hangar space

Monday, December 31st, 2012

I launch probes and perform a blanket scan. I don't care to hide my probes, as I'm assuming that podding two of their pilots in mining barges means the corporation in this class 3 w-space system know I'm here. Besides, the only capsuleer left to witness my scanning has swapped ...

Faking a long point

Saturday, December 29th, 2012

I'd like to see if I can sneak up someone successfully today. The cautious salvager of yesterday was a nice find, and gave me a hunt, but didn't have the satisfying explosion at the end. A new signature in the home system is merely a magnetometric site, so I resolve ...

Countering counter-counter measures

Friday, December 28th, 2012

It's just me in an empty system. Even our twin gas clouds have buggered off to give fluffy hugs in another system. I should have appreciated the company of those useless bastards more when they were here. But what's this? A new signature in the home system? What will it ...

Scout in a pod

Wednesday, December 26th, 2012

I have limited time, so I'll employ some blitz scanning to take me through today's constellation. A new signature in the home system resolving to be a second wormhole is a good start to my exploration, and I may as well jump through the K162 from class 3 w-space to ...

Pulling a jape on a joker

Saturday, December 22nd, 2012

It's just me and the static tonight, so here I go, looking for another adventure. Our neighbouring class 3 w-space system tonight has a Loki and Broadsword visible on my directional scanner, but only if I'm new to w-space and d-scan, and as easily startled as Sand People. I'm not, ...

Connecting with a new contact

Monday, December 17th, 2012

How odd. I've been added as a contact with terrible standing by a pilot whose name I don't recognise. Normally, fans set at least a neutral standing with me, but most often plumping for a good standing, hoping that I won't shoot them as a result. Maybe this fellow simply ...

Missing gassers, getting fuel

Wednesday, December 12th, 2012

I return on-line some time after my sammich, but in the same w-space day. Nothing is happening in the home system, not even faux-blue pilots stealing our iskies, but I have the start of a constellation to roam, so jump to our neighbouring class 3 system. It's still unoccupied, still ...

Third time's not always a charm

Friday, December 7th, 2012

I only have a limited time this evening, so let's see how much trouble I can make, or get in to. There's only one wormhole in the home system, which gives me a clear choice of direction, and I jump to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system. My directional scanner ...

Scanning back and forth

Thursday, December 6th, 2012

Signatures are accumulating as quickly as anomalies are depleting. And we're not clearing any of those anomalies, so the profit is going to other corporations. This isn't an ideal situation. Two new signatures accompany the static wormhole, and these two are wormholes too, both K162s from class 4 w-space. Damned ...

Using stargates to find wormholes

Tuesday, December 4th, 2012

Let's see what's changed with the constellation, such as it was. Our static connection to class 3 w-space led to three wormholes to and from high-sec empire space, and a K162 from class 5 w-space that was stressed to critical levels before I took a break. I would hope that ...
