Just spent the last few hours with FCB1891 transferring Cargo from one Python to another. It was a comedy at first, as I abandoned and he tried to scoop them up. We tried several different things until he thought about using Mining Limpets to gather them. After that it became a long slow routine.

I even took video, but it only recorded his side of the audio. If it had recorded both I would post it, as I gave the poor guy a hard time about his scooping technique. We had a good chat as I tried to spread my wealth before I erase my game.

Since I was planning to Clear Save, I decided to go out with a Bang!

FCB entered the station and turned around as I came into the mail slot and activated Self Destruct. But I was Loitering, it was a crime, and I was Punished most Severely. He happily snapped pics as I was blasted into Oblivion! Heartless Bastard as he was, he did send me all the pics, So here are a few so you can see me die die die!

700 lys away from the Jellyfish nebular now, so approx 4200ly outside of populated space. Should get to the Nebula either tonight or tomorrow, then need to decide if to push on to the Monkey Head or start heading home once again.

Great start. Makes me consider writing a back story

Great work! Considering how starting back from scratch allows you to continue enjoy writing, restarting doesn't seem like a bad thing. I haven't read most of your logs yet, but the most recent one and the other two recent logs (Blaze of Glory) have easily become my favorite. :D

@ Thread:
Anyway, I'm still trading commodities around and winging with people if circumstances allow it. Still need about 250m more before I can reach Elite in trading, although I'm not gonna rush it.

You have no idea how much I appreciate that. Writing has always been something I loved to do, but my issue has always been conceiving the idea to get started. ED gives that to me and takes the pressure off.

No Time like now.

@thread: I am hunting down minor niggles with Windows 10 and ED. It seems I have a problem that in games comms are being blocked when I use Voice Attack. Discovered that yesterday.

My cleared start took 3 clears and a log into solo to get it to take. And as I thought, I am back at LHS 3447. I quickly moved over to Eravate to start from there since LHS 3447 has nothing :)

Going to go RES bounty hunting outside of Fabian City in HIP 20277. May try to spice it up with some CZ hunting, if anyone knows if any nearby.

there used to be a good CZ right next to fabian city but it's gone now.

Also, I've spent a lot of time in HIP, the RES site right next to Fabian city never spawned big ships for me. Instead - go for the one that's 800-900Ls away. There are 2 planets right next to eachother, both with high RES locations. So just hop between those two if you need a reset.
