Not quite ready for the return

Monday, September 30th, 2013

Let's see what I can get up to today. The recent spate of wormholes connecting to our home system has apparently dried up, leaving me with the one route to go, jumping through our static connection to the neighbouring class 3 w-space system. I won't get up to much mischief ...

Gigs of 2013, part two

Sunday, September 29th, 2013

All I had to do was write up the XFM Exposure night at the Barfly and this post would have been complete back in July. But, no, that was too much like hard work. Still, here it is now. And So I Watch You From Afar at The Garage Lighting guys are ...

Short and sweet stab at a Skiff

Saturday, September 28th, 2013

An extra signature in the home system doesn't give me anywhere to go, it's just gas. It makes for a simple start to the evening, though, with no intruders or choices of direction to go. I simply resolve our static wormhole and jump to the neighbouring class 3 w-space system. ...

Evasive manoeuvres

Friday, September 27th, 2013

I'm just going to have a little poke around the constellation. Nothing much, you understand, as I'm not even supposed to be here today. But the inexorable pull of exploring new systems has my coming on-line to see what I can find in w-space. Two extra signatures in the home ...

Recovering null-sec relics

Thursday, September 26th, 2013

I know C2a. Not intimately, like we see each other every day, but in reconnoitring the path an Occator transport took, before its warp core-stabilised cheating self escaped my clutches, I entered and scanned the class 2 w-space system. I know it has the two static wormholes, one to the ...

Tracking a transport

Wednesday, September 25th, 2013

What's with the proliferation of signatures? The home system is positively bursting with them. Launching probes to see what they are, as I'm going to be exploring anyway, finds a new pocket of gas and a decent haul of four wormholes. Well, I think that's what I've found, but the ...

Looking for ships, getting a Legion

Tuesday, September 24th, 2013

I come on-line and settle in for another evening of scanning. Not that I got far yesterday, as I recall. But already I see four unexpected signatures in the home system, so I launch probes and get my mojo working. The first signature sits where the K162 from class 5 ...

Weirdos from another w-space system

Monday, September 23rd, 2013

Let's see if I can find someone to stalk. Space has seemed pretty quiet of late. There's no one in the home system, of course; that would be too easy. I'll try next door. Resolving our static wormhole and jumping to the class 3 w-space system has nothing and no ...

Music of 2013, part two

Sunday, September 22nd, 2013

Sometimes I need a while to fully appreciate an album before I'm ready to review it. Often I'll find that reviewing music can just be a bit difficult without sounding trite. Sometimes I'm just lazy. Whatever the reason this time, I've finally got around to reviewing the second batch of ...

Mostly finding wormholes

Saturday, September 21st, 2013

Nothing to see here. Move along. And not much to see through our static wormhole, either. The neighbouring class 3 w-space system has the standard tower and lack of ships that is becoming more common, and performing a blanket scan reveals a meagre two anomalies and five signatures. Still, scanning ...
