Music of 2014, part one

Sunday, May 11th, 2014

Or maybe 'Music of 2013, part four'. I'm keen to get some more new music and so look through the backlog of bands that I've been interested in for a while, picking up some albums that I didn't get around to buying in the latter part of 2013. But my ...

Recouping a mineral loss

Saturday, May 10th, 2014

Two signatures at home surely hold a K162 between them. In fact, they are both K162 wormholes, one coming in from class 4 w-space, the other class 2 w-space. Let's see what's in C2a first. Updating my directional scanner from the other side of the wormhole sees a tower, Tengu ...

Loitering in low-sec

Friday, May 9th, 2014

The local pilots float inside their tower doing nothing. It's not terribly surprising, given I've just successfully ambushed one of their Retriever mining barges, but it does offer us a minor opportunity. I keep watching the pilots as a newly arrived Fin grabs a destroyer from our tower, jumps to ...

Sleepers and ore

Thursday, May 8th, 2014

Some good anomalies have floated back in to the home w-space system, along with an extra signature. Is it another wormhole? Nope, the other signature is just a bit more gas, which should give us a closed system. I perhaps ought to turn some of those anomalies in to ISK, ...

Finding exits and entrances

Wednesday, May 7th, 2014

Sites have despawned in the home system, yet there are signatures dotted around. What manner of wizardry is this?! I shall investigate. Oh, and I need to bring my glorious leader home too. The signatures are new, or shifted, gas clouds, and a second wormhole. The connection is a K162 ...

'Ceptors are scary

Tuesday, May 6th, 2014

Checking the exit to low-sec takes me to a system in Metropolis, where there is no sign of the Astero frigate or any other members of his corporation. They've definitely moved out of today's neighbouring class 3 w-space system, with a little help from us. There are a couple of ...

Helping with a move

Monday, May 5th, 2014

Another day in w-space. We've got one anomaly back and a new signature. No one is currently stealing from us in the anomaly and I think about clearing it for ourselves, but only once I've scanned to make sure the system is safe. It is not. The new signature is ...

Finding the w-space Phantasm

Sunday, May 4th, 2014

I leave the hot system behind me. Well, cool system. It was hot earlier, and there is certainly some activity happening, just nothing I can see. Frankly, that's not a great kind of activity to be involved in. So it is that I jump through the wormhole home and head ...

Not exploring my options

Saturday, May 3rd, 2014

Fin's lost a Loki. My glorious leader hasn't misplaced the strategic cruiser in a hangar, but got it stuck on a structure in an anomaly when reclaiming some Sleeper loot of ours, and the four Golem marauders trying to steal it took offence. So it goes. We should probably buy ...

Random access

Friday, May 2nd, 2014

A glorious leader and some bookmarks is a good combination to come on-line to. Fin's now busy hauling between w-space and high-sec, as we have an exit conveniently close to Amarr. I hope she remembers that we're currently at war. 'Always', she says, and points me towards an unexplored class ...
