Strange sightings

At the time of this post, I’ve visited 209 systems, and 150 unique wormholes. I’m not sure how many signatures I’ve scanned down, but I’m sure the numbers are up there. I notice a lot of similarities when it comes to scanning wormholes, but sometimes the layout still surprises me. Take, for example, J204030 which I mention above. When I entered that wormhole there were 5 other signatures up, all to wormholes. I thought I’d spend some time hunting down data/relic sites, but it was not to be.

Instead, it was 5 signatures that ALL lead to a highsec connection! FIVE! I don’t know that I’ve ever come across that before. I picked a random one to head out of, and found myself in a quiet area of Gallente space, so I decided to do some high sec scanning for a bit.

I must say, I do appreciate the changes that have happened to the daily opportunities. Instead of being forced into a specific type of gameplay, I can just carry on with my day and go about whatever it is I would naturally be doing. I feel like this is a much better method of motivating people to play – just rewarding them for logging in and doing whatever it is that they want to do. Sometimes I want to mine, sometimes I’m involved in combat, other times I’m doing some manufacturing, or exploration.

I know EVE Online posts here have been a bit lacking (as in, I haven’t done any) for the past month, but I just haven’t had the spoons to do much posting. Hopefully that’ll change, but if not, at least this is something. Happy gaming no matter where you find yourself!
