Personally, I'm compelled to just keep plowing through while the cycle is still young. It's only Saturday after all.

I thought there was a post somewhere about relative value of tissue samples, evacuations, search and rescue, kills but can't find it. If one does exist could it be added to the first post please.
I'm trying to work out how much effort I'm wasting by hunting Orthrus instead of collecting tissue samples. Got 40 Orthrus yesterday thanks to SCO but if that's still only a fraction of what I could do via tissue samples I'd have to reconsider.
As for what you get, one Orthrus kill is worth approximately 3.14 tissue samples.
If Tissue Sampling is not something you're interested in, by all means, kill Orthruses! But in approximately 8 hours, I was able to find and kill about 20 of them, meaning it would take me about 40 hours just to clear a relatively small outlying Alert. By contrast, a tissue sampling player can generally achieve the same result in something like 2 hours, or approximately 20x faster. Highly-skilled tissue samplers have achieved rates around 500 samples/hour, or approximately 50x faster.
Also intending to reduce my cargo rack from class 5 (32) to corrosion resistant class 4 (16) as not been collecting a tissue sample or two each time recently, and require fewer or no repair / decontamination limpets than I used to

Hi, what whith Col 285 Sector QM-B b14-2 ? She closed on this tick?
Okay thnx. Then I'll hold on to 100+ scout scalps for now and do some sabotageThat is one of the remaining peripheral systems which are still benefiting from ongoing Spire site progress; take a look at the week 74 list to see where it stands. In the meantime we have been clearing deeper attackers and a few extra systems to advance the next periphery, but we will get to it!
After the Spire reaches the 85% limit for raising those Control systems, which it will if Commanders lending kind support there reach 100% to remove also another Spire site, the plan is to clear all six peripheral Control systems in no more than an evening—if indeed there are any more Research payloads to prepare by then!

Plans have changed and I'm leaving for the weekend. So I'll have to submit the samples now. Total 222 piecesThank you! That is very helpful, and I have recorded that 100 on the list so we know only the difference is needed.

90 pieces, first part send to rms, sryAre you able to sell them to my Fleet Carrier in Col 285 Sector OB-D b13-4? I have just opened an order at INV. Wrath of Winter H2V-L3V for you, if you can!
Hi, is there any information on how much is needed for HIP 30502? Yesterday I sold my pieces to you, there is an opportunity to put my brother to collect skins)Very successful week thus far! All attacks which are economical to stop have been stopped, the periphery now consists only of the Spire site system Col 285 Sector SX-Z b14-0 (86%), and a science-system plus one other advancement system are also clear.
It is quite fine if Commanders are happy to continue, although we are being at least a bit cautious in taking Research help for a system only if we are also committing to finish it! With that in mind, V has opened a partial order for one more system Col 285 Sector KW-M c7-3 (6091) at INV Astral Flame HNZ-G1F parked in Col 285 Sector OR-B b14-1. Any other progress there is welcome in the meantime—separate Scythe deliveries, combat and such!
Completing that system will align the peripheries to remove the popular Col 285 Sector US-Z b14-7 one week early, but in return for exposing HIP 30439 and reaching zero resistance. The zero resistance is obviously desirable, and I understand that the Spire site at HIP 30439 is at least acceptable!
Beyond that I am more inclined to relax a bit this week, although we could start collections for the non-peripheral attackers next week.
