Making use of actual skill in scanning

Friday, November 1st, 2013

There's nothing unknown at home. The static wormhole used to be 'unknown', but now it's definitely a wormhole. Besides, I know it's there, so I suppose it's a known unknown. Except it's not unknown; I've just been over this. Well, it leads to space that's classified as 'unknown', so there's ...

Helios coda

Thursday, October 31st, 2013

I'm pretty sure I'm heading home through unoccupied or otherwise inactive systems. And I pretty much am. I came out this way and the only active ship I saw was an Imicus a hundred kilometres off a K162 in null-sec, right before it warped way and left the system using ...

Honing a mostly pointless skill

Wednesday, October 30th, 2013

I'm not even supposed to be here today. But I'll try to make the best of it, as long as somebody hasn't jammed chewing gum in to our static wormhole so it won't open. Bunch of savages in w-space. The known sites have faded away, but my probes reveal five ...

Trying to join in

Tuesday, October 29th, 2013

No new signatures means no new sites, as well as no surprise wormholes. I simply resolve our static connection and jump to tonight's neighbouring class 3 w-space system, where I'm guessing my directional scanner will show me a tower and no ships. I'm a Buzzard wrong, which is better than ...

For the want of carrier skills

Monday, October 28th, 2013

'Hopefully I am not stuck in high-sec.' Holy crap, I'm getting a sitrep. I'm no longer used to this, and I try to follow the best I can but my puny mind cannot process it all at once. Something about bringing in minerals for our industrial projects through a dying ...

Being quietly productive

Sunday, October 27th, 2013

Hello, stranger! It's Fin, my supposed alternative personality. Why I haven't seen her in a while I don't know, maybe the meds were working, but she's back. I fear I've gone feral, though, as I leave Fin to check that our tower is still functioning and how to run our ...

Bumping in to a Badger

Saturday, October 26th, 2013

Safe and sound, away from home. The K162 from class 4 w-space, some fifty kilometres away, remains inactive for the past few minutes, the fleet I jumped in to not sending out another search party. I still need to treat the constellation with care, but it poses no immediate or ...

Tengu becomes legion

Friday, October 25th, 2013

It was a good full night last night. I'm on-line earlier today, and with less time to spare, so let's see what I can get up to. I don't have the best start, seeing that some corporation has stolen all of our Sleeper loot, the fiends. I like to keep ...

Outbound connections are rubbish

Thursday, October 24th, 2013

The system lacks pilots. I don't mind too much that the hauler at the tower is empty, seeing as I just recently woke up a sleeping Procurer pilot by sending him back to a clone vat. But there's not much else for me to do here. Even the promise of ...

Dead man piloting

Wednesday, October 23rd, 2013

The wormhole lives! Unlike that hauler I just popped in the class 2 w-space system. But the K162 that connects that system to our home is at the end of its life, so even if there were going to be repercussions to my successful ambush I'm not sticking around to ...
