Bagging some bubbles

Saturday, February 2nd, 2013

The wormhole should have died by now. That our static connection will collapse and sever the link to the rest of the scanned constellation could be seen as unfortunate. But w-space life is based on ephemeral connections, and without them the rich experience of new systems to explore and roam ...

Noodling through a network of w-space

Monday, January 14th, 2013

Still all quiet at home. So lonely. One extra signature to keep me warm. Maybe it leads to new friends. Maybe! It resolves to be a wormhole, a K162 from class 3 w-space. And jumping through the wormhole has a Badger light up my directional scanner. There's a tower visible ...

Getting a jump ahead of a hauler

Tuesday, November 27th, 2012

I'm off for a cruise, see who I bump in to. Resolving the static wormhole and jumping to the neighbouring class 3 w-space system puts me in directional scanner range of a drone, a few cans, but no towers, ships, wrecks. A blanket scan reveals little else, with five anomalies ...

Legions are like sharks

Wednesday, November 14th, 2012

Hi Fin. Those bookmarks are yesterday's, right? 'Yes. I'm just getting started.' Okay, good. They're deleted. I launch my probes in to the home w-space system to join those of my glorious leader, and what I take to be a new gravimetric site actually resolves to be a second wormhole. ...

Duelling a Drake

Friday, October 19th, 2012

I'm back. Fin's here too, and is scouting around the already scanned w-space constellation. So is anything out there? 'Yes.' Oh, good. 'And no.' There is a K162 from class 5 w-space newly connecting to our home system and ships have been passing between there and an empire space connection ...

Hopping through half-mass holes

Saturday, August 18th, 2012

Aii's been busy. Three gas sites have been sucked up in to his ships and presumably dumped in to storage at our tower. I doubt I'll be so busy this evening, being somewhat in pain, but after my recent ransacking of towers in low-sec empire space I feel I should ...

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 ...

Flashing a Drake

Thursday, July 26th, 2012

It's just me and my shadow. Hopefully my shadow can find someone to shoot, because I've not been doing well lately. I wonder if the unidentified signature in the home w-space system could lead to an incautious pilot, but as it resolves to a radar site that pilot would have ...

Appearing at the end of a mining operation

Thursday, July 12th, 2012

I've got myself confused. A rogue Anathema appeared in the home system with no apparent source, and we collapsed our static wormhole to keep out the covert operations boat we assumed we'd seen lurking before. Now I've scanned the home system to continue the evening's adventure and I'm seeing a ...

Burn Aridia

Thursday, June 28th, 2012

I come on-line to look for opportunity. My glorious leader is here already, so has Fin found any? Nope, she's just turned up too, so we scan the home system. Five signatures hold three known sites and the static wormhole, with the remaining signature being some new gas. We resolve ...
