Scan man goes out to scan, warping to our static wormhole. I've just turned up and am looking for adventure so ask if I can come along. 'I thought you'd want to'. I warp to his position and we both jump through to today's neighbouring system. ...

Our wallets need bolstering, so we head to today's neighbouring w-space system to plunder some Sleeper wrecks. Radar sites are a little too fiddly for tonight's schedule, so we'll stick to clearing basic anomalies. And as if to enforce our time limit for the evening our static wormhole ...

The galaxy has been reset and is ripe for scanning. It looks like the irrepressible Fin has been here before the reset and has scanned the neighbouring systems, leaving some handy bookmarks for me to copy. Instead of looking mostly for wormholes I can instead go out scouting ...

An exit to empire space has been found. Even better, it is only three jumps from Jita. Jita may be a wretched hive of scum and villainy, but it has good shops. And as it is the market capital of Caldari space, I should be able to ...

Scanning has a purpose! I need to get myself a new Manticore after the old one exploded, and to do that I have to dock in empire space to buy one from the market. There is a slight complication in that our current static wormhole has been deemed ...

I have a few idle minutes, so I wake myself up at the w-space tower to see how everyone is doing. It turns out to be a most opportune moment. Our scanning man is a couple of systems away monitoring two Abaddon battleships and a Hurricane battlecruiser clearing ...

It's time for some more action. A minimal fleet is available to engage some Sleepers in an anomaly or two. We jump to today's neighbouring system and the squad leader warps the fleet in to the first anomaly. There is some confusion, however, as despite the whole ...

I find it interesting that my PvE fleet activities in EVE Online have me gravitating towards piloting logistics ships repairing the rest of the fleet, effectively being a 'healer', because it is not a role that has appealed to me in previous games. Admittedly, my experience with MMORPGs is ...

No one is around. I'll head out scanning in my Buzzard to the sounds of disco. The previously destabilised wormhole has disappeared, creating me a new one to find, which I manage easily enough. I jump through to the neighbouring system, punch the directional scanner, and warp ...

There is no one around and no bookmarks in the can, so I'll take myself out scanning to see what adventures I can have today. My first adventure is in UI frustration, unfortunately. For convenience, I tend to interact with the virtual spheres of the probes not only ...
