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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Oh my, that's a lot of signatures. Granted, it's not so many when I revert my filter to not show structures, and when I'm no longer looking at all of the many parts and defences of our tower I'm left with just one new signature. That's about right. And, hey, ...

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 ...

Rocks and gas are gone from the home system. Bye bye, rocks and gas. As are most of our anomalies. Bye bye, Sleeper loot. But say hello to two new signatures, gas and his brother, gas. That leaves no intruders to chase out, or any incoming wormholes to chase the ...

Could I be so lucky? Popping the gassing Moa cruiser and heading backwards to more unexplored w-space puts me in directional scanner range of seven Retrievers and a Bestower. But there is also a tower visible on d-scan in this class 2 system, and a quick check puts the hauler ...

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, ...

New gas at home replaces the old. Maybe it just drifted half-way across the system, as we have been a bit slack with our industrialism recently and not really harvested any of the resources to be found in w-space. And because we've been lackadaisical, I activate the new ladar site ...

A new signature in the home system is an exciting start to my evening, which is rather disappointing in itself. It's more disappointing when the signature resolves to be not a wormhole but a site, and full of rocks at that, particularly as we haven't been doing much mining recently. ...
