Skill training continues towards Damnation

Thursday, October 8th, 2009

Having a long skill in the training queue makes for less maintenance, not needing at least once a day to keep the queue filled, which in itself is an improvement over having to know, and be logged-in, precisely when each skill is due to complete. Adding a three-week skill ...

Refuelling

Wednesday, October 7th, 2009

Knowing is half the battle. Being able to recognise why I spend most of a session holed up in a station, rather than enjoying the impressive vistas of space, lets me focus my attention on making some progress, however small. Well, that and the large tower in w-space ...

Keeping my manufacturing plant static

Monday, October 5th, 2009

Kename Fin asks why I don't move my manufacturing base closer either to my mission base or the corporation headquarters, to improve convenience and encourage activity. Akura Kawanaka suggests using jump clones. I suspect my reply will be rather long to sit in a mere comment. Moving my manufacturing ...

UFO in warp

Saturday, October 3rd, 2009

I am warping around collecting minerals when I get one of those rare and majestic moments of coincidentally warping alongside a fellow capsuleer. I am in my Crane, of course, which zips along at an impressive 9 AU/s, but I have no idea what the other ship is that is ...

Down in the New Eden dumps

Friday, October 2nd, 2009

Back in known space, and I'm feeling in a bit of a funk. I just cannot get started with anything. I have some Lai Dai agents waiting to give me missions to run, my manufacturing plants could be churning out some more modules to put on the market, ...

Bringing down the tower

Monday, September 28th, 2009

The w-space system runs dry. The asteroid fields are barren of exotic rocks, leaving only ores already plentiful in high-sec, and all Sleeper sites have been explored and pillaged of their antiquities. It is time to move out of this secondary system. Although getting back to k-space ...

Optimism

Saturday, September 26th, 2009

'I'm just on briefly to check my skill training.' 'Don't tell me you've completed battlecruisers V already!' 'Let's see. Hmm, nope. I have over thirteen days still to go. This is taking forever.'

Original or copy?

Friday, September 25th, 2009

It is quite easy to spot the Crane or Manticore BPCs sitting in my hangar, and the corporation's Tengu BPC is a beautiful sight. But when a copying job finishes I have terrible trouble trying to spot the BPO amongst the many BPCs when they all get thrown in ...

More motivation for Lai Dai mission running

Thursday, September 24th, 2009

Cranes, Bustards and Manticores, oh my! I may not have been terribly successful with my recent invention jobs, in league with an industrial and corporation friend, but a decent number and variation of Tech II ship BPCs are returned. Even though not all of the BPCs have been ...

Crane pleasure cruise

Monday, September 21st, 2009

I pop out of w-space to keep my industrial operations running. My module sales keep ticking over nicely, and I need to keep an eye on market stock levels, but I am mostly concerned with researching the material costs of the new rig blueprints, so that I can liquidate ...
