I got a bit distracted there.
Do they have sandworms on Unst?

Priceless, thanks. I'm sending that to them just now!

NB never call a Shetlander Scottish.... they take about as well as a Welshman being called English.

Really… the more I think about it, the more I’ve concluded that, what we have in our hands now, is just a semi-functional placeholder.

No way! Really?! Impossible!

Are just Wasting our time…. And CIG’s - Star Citizen Spectrum

It seems to me that we are utterly wasting our time when discussing balance, when discussing changes to ships, and when discussing changes to missile and the like… because…. until we have Resource...

SalteTwerk17 discovering X4: Foundation is quite amusing. Like a deaf baby hearing for the first time, realizing for the few things no other games do but SC (sortof) does badly, there's a ton of things SC keep failing at doing other games do.

Yesterday I was traveling from Pyro to Stanton via the jump point. Everything appeared to work smoothly except the wormhole kept sending me back to pyro every time I exited. I tried a third time, and it seems the wormhole was tired of me constantly probing it's innards to it decided to eject me into the middle of the Stanton system, right beneath the star.

And what greeted me was a graveyard of ships. I knew this was caused by a bug, but just seeing all these empty husks suspended in space gave the feeling I had just popped out of a space anomaly and I had found space Bermuda triangle.

I did some exploration and even managed to find a executive cutlass black which I robbed of it's NDB Repeaters. But then a bit off to the side of the cluster of ships sat a lone carrion bird, a half destroyed vulture and I spied a business opportunity.

I blew up the back door of the busted bird and got in, fired it up and despite the crackling wires and smoke filled cabin it booted up perfectly. I set out and I started scavenging.

I contacted my buddy, who was on important buritto and pips gathering for a certain alien dude, and he managed to jump to me since we were in a party. He cracked open a starlifter and suddenly we had a multicrew scavenging operation going, him in my hold dumping out the 1 SCU crates, and we together transfering it over to the C2 when my hold was full.

As I was stripping this Starlancer Max there was suddenly an explosion beside me, a prospector had popped into existence inside the cluster and had slammed into one of the suspended ships. Parts flew and the pilot even came floating out, dead.

We ended up with a haul of around 73 SCU of RMC and only really stopped because it was getting late and we had to log off.

But it was damn fun. This was actual emergent gameplay and it was all caused by a freakin' bug. The fact that there were new ships spawning in and crashing with other ships gave the whole place a dangerous feel while the excitement of the haul was also going.

So thats my story of the space graveyard inside the star of the Stanton system.

Being Scottish on Shetland or Orkney is being part of an ethnic minority group, Orkney especially is more Viking than modern day Norway is now...apart from being seasonally invaded by incoming Yorkshire folk of course. For some reason, we've had a good portion of the former population of Doncaster as mostly transient residents on the island over the last few years. Even the local ferry workers have taken to calling it Little Yorkshire :whistle:

The majority of those 'white settlers' move up during the (very short) summer, form some commitee or focus group about island living then almost invariably, last around 6 months to a year before selling up and fleeing back to civilisation...the rest of us permanent residents get the benefit of buying all their belongings for cheap. It's a common newcomer greeting up here on the outer islands..."When you leave, can we have your stuff?" :)

I remain endlessly impressed by my friend in Unst - ex London, ex Oz. They jumped, or so it seemed to me, without too much looking, and is happy and has been there five (gawd maybe six) years. The stories I hear of small island life are variously eyewatering, unsurprising, and hilarious.

And then I get images like yours of the aurora borealis and even I (an avowed Lunduner) think, well... wow... maybe I do understand.... although she has no zombie cows. Probably. Yet.
