With nothing happening, it's time to go out scanning in my Buzzard again. A handy bookmark to our static wormhole is already in the can at the tower, which suggests our scanning man has been out already today, but I can take a look around anyway. The neighbouring ...

Our scanning man finds an exit. We are plonked out of w-space in to low-sec, but the system has a high-sec connection, through a fancy-pants stargate no less, and is only a handful of jumps to where my Crane Tigress III is docked. Well, it's a handful if ...

I have the red mist. Blowing up Sleepers for fun and profit is good, but we were so close to popping an inattentive miner that I have to go back for a second look. It is late and the fleet has dispersed but I want to see if ...

The evening starts quietly in w-space, I need to make my own entertainment. I could continue to mine the bistot that I began to chip away at in a local gravimetric site, but I'm not really in the mood to mine by myself. There are bookmarks in the ...

Getting back to the corporation tower in w-space, I notice our new recruit is out mining in the system. The directional scanner finds his Retriever mining barge in the system, which I recognise by its name, as well as picking up the presence of a few jet-cans. I ...

Today's scanning finds the nexus of w-space, system J100001! It's good that simple pleasures appeal to me, because I can still get a little buzz from the system number after spending twenty minutes scanning only to be told that our scanning man has already done it. He went ...

A Phobos heavy interdictor appears in our home w-space system. It cloaks and starts scanning. I wonder aloud if we should grab a couple of angry ships and set up a trap on our static wormhole, but the minimal engineer presence makes it unlikely that we could break ...

I give up early on scanning this evening. I jump in to my Buzzard to lend a hand to our scanning man, but when he tells me that there is a warp disruption bubble set-up one way, a bubble and a carrier another, and the third way has an ...

There is an exit out to New Eden, but not just any exit. It's the second day in a row that a high-sec exit to The Citadel has presented itself, the region of my manufacturing base and where Tigress III has been abandoned. Yesterday we fought Sleepers, today ...

'We need to do this in an organised way.' The expected sarcastic replies come quickly. But moving bookmarks between ships is a painfully slow process that isn't helped when several engineers all want access at once. The suggestion is to copy all the bookmarks in to your ...
