Chores

Well when I logged in last night we had 5 cosmic sigs and a couple of ore/combat sites. I think I was the only person in the wormhole so I started scanning.

1st Wormhole. Static - OK.
2nd Wormhole. Nullsec - K162. hmmm
3rd Wormhole. Highsec - K162. Woohoo
4th Wormhole. Nullsec - K162. damn.
5th of course is the Data site scanned down yesterday.

OK so we're pretty much open for business. I announce this in the EVE Google+ Hangout. I head out the Highsec exit and it is something like 10 jumps to Jita.


Great. I load the Occator with nearly 60km3 or ore and shoot off to our manufacturing station and dump it off to make some Procurers. We seem to need some for some reason.  Lanvarok also jumps in his Impel, after his podded capsuleers get back. The Amarr equivalent to the Occator starts hauling ore out and off to Jita to fill up with POS Fuel.

While there I grab the fittings that I have for a second Eris (Interdictor) and some Atrons (PVP Throwaway ships). I'll need a few more parts but they won't be hard to get. I also pack some Command Centres to setup some PI in the wh.

DT is fast approaching so I won't try and get to Jita then out to the wormhole yet.

I do some quick skill checks to organise some skill books to come in. Luskette is only 2 days away from Heavy Interdictor Cruiser pre-requisites being completed so I'll pick one of them up. (31 million damn). There are also some missile skills that she can already learn so i'll grab them. Lusankya is less than a day for Missile Launcher 5, so that's Cruise Missiles, Caldari Offensive Sub systems (Tengu requirement) and something else so I'll grab those books too.

DT Hits and that's when I realise that it is Extended DT tonight and tomorrow. OK I have some TV Shows to watch so I fire up Minecraft on the PS3 and watch TV while glancing at the EVE Launcher for Online to pop up beside the Tranquility Server.

OK Server is online so I jump in and I'm the only one. 

"Are you all asleep? Server Up" I put in the hangout.

I come back in with the OCC. Lan had done some trips and the hole has now had it's stability affected by ships using the wh. It isn't critical yet though. Lan managed to get quite a bit of Ore out though. One of the Nullsec holes has died so we are down to 4 sigs, 3 wh and a data.

After unloading the ships and fittings I jump in the Helios to scoot out with the Salvage and Sleeper loot. This generally doesn't take up much cargo and can be expensive. I nearly got all of it in the Helios (175m3). I sold the sleeper loot, straight into the Corp wallet. I then went to Amarr and got rid of the more expensive salvage. Then off to the Manufacturing Station and dumped the rest.  Our CEO can pissfart around with that stuff.  I picked up the skill books that I required and went back to the WH.

Everyone had just about logged off so I just popped out the Lowsec to bookmark it. 19 jumps from Jita with 2 LS jumps. Not too bad but there was someone in local and core probes were already out. Back in the hole and I'll log off before they can scan the hole down and jump through.

Only saw one ship in the wormhole. A stilletto I think. Minmatar Interceptor. Must be doing a run of something through Nullsec. We had 4 wormholes, 3 of which we knew were active and still managed to get some stuff in and out. While uneventful it was one of those chores that needs to be done to keep things functioning. We did well.
