Clearing the home anomalies

Wednesday, August 8th, 2012

Would you look at that. Some roaming fleet has blitzed all of our anomalies, bar three. And those three may have spawned overnight. It's a bit of a disappointment, really. All of that Sleeper action, and not even a salvager for me to shoot. On top of that, they don't ...

Empty space is quiet space

Tuesday, August 7th, 2012

Shev's scanning our neighbouring system. 'Seems quiet here', he says, as I join him in an occupied but inactive system. In the bookmarks he's made I spy a connection in addition to the exit to low-sec empire space, and warp to appear next to a K162 from class 2 w-space. ...

Death by aggression

Monday, August 6th, 2012

The home system clutter is down to one pocket of gas, which looks much nicer. It is then increased to two pockets of gas as I scan, which is still better than before, and after I activate the new site I jump through the only wormhole to our neighbouring class ...

Exploration and ships but nothing to show for it

Sunday, August 5th, 2012

I'm a bit sleepy, and w-space looks the same. I'm alone in the home system and there is no constellation mapped. The situation changes a little when I launch probes to scan, and one extra signature becomes three. It's not that the signatures appear, more that a couple of bookmarks ...

Don't tease me

Saturday, August 4th, 2012

It's just me and the static wormhole, and I'm soon enough waving goodbye to that too. I move away and cloak from the K162 in our neighbouring class 3 w-space system with four towers but no ships visible on my directional scanner. One planet out of range holds a little ...

Going after gassers

Friday, August 3rd, 2012

Let's not mess up an easy kill today, shell we Penny? Assuming, of course, that I get another fat target like yesterday's miner. But in finding the miner after collapsing our static wormhole, and not scanning the class 3 w-space system for an exit, I may have inadvertently shut Shev ...

Creeping up on a Covetor

Thursday, August 2nd, 2012

Some gas has gone, some rocks have come. Or some gas has been compressed to rocks. Either way, the home w-space system remains as untidy as it was yesterday, and I have a whole cluster of bookmarks waiting for me. Let's take a look around the constellation to see if ...

I brake for d-scan

Wednesday, August 1st, 2012

I would say that Shev's here, early as usual, but apparently he isn't. He's out of w-space and in null-sec k-space, looking to cosy up to a pirate faction. More power to him, I say, as it sounds like a lark and is different to my run-of-the-mill exploration. He can ...

Earning ISK from Sleepers

Tuesday, July 31st, 2012

Shev's here and scanning as I wake up. He resolves the static wormhole for the both of us as I orientate myself and note that the build-up of gas in the home w-space system is yet to dissipate. I suppose a bunch of clouds doesn't really get too much in ...

Flying my way in to an ambush

Monday, July 30th, 2012

The constellation is mapped once more, and although there is a new signature in the home system it resolves to be mere gas. Pushing in to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system sees a tower and Devoter on my directional scanner, but the heavy interdictor is unpiloted inside the tower's ...
