I'm gonna need a bigger boat

Thursday, March 5th, 2009

My plan to stockpile minerals looks to be working at the moment. I have bought a fair quantity of most minerals at good prices and getting them back to my industrial base lets me run several production lines without running out of materiel. Of course, I will need ...

Keeping busy

Tuesday, March 3rd, 2009

My desire to get a flying dragon, a different kind of Drake that I'll call a Tech II mount for this post, means I haven't been in New Eden terribly much recently, but that's not to say I haven't kept myself busy. I have a few more BPOs to ...

Being productive

Friday, February 27th, 2009

There is an awful lot happening for me at the moment in EVE Online. My first batch of ME research is coming to fruition, which has plenty of consequences. The direct consequences are that it frees up my limited number of research slots, allowing me to install more ...

Trying to corner the market

Thursday, February 26th, 2009

A capsuleer bought almost my entire stock of missiles that I had placed on the market, spending several million ISK to do so. Shortly afterwards, a huge cache of the same missiles was placed on the market in the same station but with a significant price increase. I could kick ...

I sometimes feel like a non-profit organisation

Monday, February 23rd, 2009

Currently in EVE Online I have a plan. Yea, it is a good plan, as it has a short-term goal that not only doesn't encroach on my previous aims but encourages me to spend more time in New Eden, in order to make enough profit to afford the new ...

Aiming for the Crane

Friday, February 20th, 2009

This is exciting, my material efficiency (ME) research jobs are getting closer to completion, which means two things. First, I get a bunch of researched blueprints delivered to my hangar, a whole lot of new toys all at once! Second, my research slots will be freed for more ...

The value of labour

Monday, February 16th, 2009

Heading in to New Eden I say hello to a couple of new corporation colleagues and pick up my newly completed production run of missiles to put on the market. Jumping in to my Badger's pod I take the missiles to the system and station that has proved lucrative ...

Corporation application and thoughts on covert ops ships

Friday, February 13th, 2009

The missiles I'm manufacturing for New Eden capsuleers continue to fly off the market as quickly as I can make them. Meanwhile, Kename Fin stops by to point me towards an excellent resource for BPO research figures, before casually throwing in an invitation to join her industrial corporation. ...

Continuing missile production

Monday, February 9th, 2009

More missiles roll off the production line, over a million-and-a-half this time. Despite manufacturing so many I immediately start the next production run. The reasons for this are two-fold. First, even though there is an initial set-up fee for the production run it is minor compared to ...

Selling like hot cakes

Wednesday, February 4th, 2009

One day of being on the market and over 80,000 Scourge heavy missiles have sold from my production run. This gets me back my investment in the run as well as some profit, leaving the remainder of the missiles as pure profit when they sell. Considering how quickly ...
