Rolling rampage

Friday, March 9th, 2012

Today is a perfect day to go on a rolling rampage. Fin and I have been looking forward to it for a while, and now it's time explore systems quickly and systematically in a hunt for newly off-line towers. I'm keen enough to get started that I get on-line early, ...

Scouting and selling loot

Wednesday, March 7th, 2012

The first step in exploration is getting out of the home system. That's pretty easy to accomplish with two wormholes here, our static connection to class 3 w-space and a K162 from class 4 w-space. I'll go backwards, hoping to run in to activity early in the evening. A Noctis ...

Hindering a hauler heading home

Sunday, March 4th, 2012

I'm out for a short, preliminary scouting session. Of course, I've said that before and it's not worked out that way, but you've got to start with a plan. And it may not be quite so simple today, as one of the two new signatures at home is not more ...

A kill is a kill

Friday, March 2nd, 2012

I have a shiny new marauder, with only a few scratches from a Dread Gurista so far. But as much as I'd like to pilot the Golem in to anomalies to blow the crap out of some Sleepers, if there's one lesson that's been rammed home to me in the ...

According to no plan

Tuesday, February 28th, 2012

Nearly getting myself stuck in empire space yesterday has given me an idea. I spend a fair amount of time trying to repair the criminally large reductions in my security status by looking for anomalies or other sites that will have bounty-holding rats to pop. It takes time and effort ...

Looking for rats and finding trouble

Sunday, February 26th, 2012

Both the static wormhole and glorious leader Fin have collapsed. Fin orchestrated collapsing the wormhole before deciding it was already late enough. I'm keen to take another look around w-space in the hopes of finding an exit close to Jita so I can buy a new and expensive toy. I ...

Crashing a collapse

Wednesday, February 22nd, 2012

My skill queue is becoming increasingly meaningless. I have no idea what to train or why, so I'm simply sticking in fairly arbitrary skills for the moment, hoping they'll be useful at some point. I don't really have an aim for a new ship, or any particular ship I use ...

Intercepting exports

Thursday, February 16th, 2012

I was thinking about having a night off from space and, as I find myself here anyway, my heart may not be in it as a result. But if there's one lesson I've learnt during my mercurial moods it's that I'm keen on exploration. There's no direct scanning that needs ...

Stumbling across yesterday's system

Monday, February 13th, 2012

New sites continue to appear in the home system faster than I can despawn them. This is untenable! Maybe some rocks have gone since yesterday, but in their place is, um, oh, a wormhole. Okay, there are no new sites today and instead there are two wormholes for my exploration ...

Stalking a system for a salvager

Saturday, February 11th, 2012

It's getting untidy at home. Some gas has gone but more has cropped up in the meantime, creating a mess that I cannot eradicate quickly enough. I activate the new sites and ignore them for now, jumping to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system. Two towers show occupation but there's ...
