UA Mystery thread 4 - The Canonn

Thread Closed: Not open for further replies.
At 49 Arietis as I was aware of this: 225.000Cr there and 330.000Cr galactic avarage.
But within the half hour it falls back to the former 150.000/200.000Cr. (with the usual "150.00" cr indication error also to seen again in 1.5 Beta ...:S)
No clue. Maybe a bug ... or very fast markets :D

We salute you!
 
Guys... Just received the below as part of the UA prize:

Although really cool, I'm already packing up to start looking for a new galaxy. ;)

Damn that's nice! This shows FD's commitment towards its community. And it's not just about that, they really seem to care. I'm glad to be part of this community.

Don't ask me why, but it reminded me of that song:

You can say it: I'm pathetic.

On the point of the GalNet article
What if we can pinpoint the source of the buyer by sampling the sale price accross different systems? There was a time when we had analyzed sale prices to try to pinpoint a source, perhaps the devs have now added the feature? Much in the same way that some genius in the first thread asked if the UA pointed like a compass, which it then did in 1.4
 
Hey guys! Just thought you might like to see the station we're helping build in the Pleiades :D

Obsidian Orbital
Maia 2 A
634.99 LS from the main star

Standard station interior
No black market
No shipyard
No market
No bulletin board
Only Universal Cartographics

I'm sure the current CG will determine what apears on the menu!

Factions:
CQC Holdings
Ryder's Revolutionary Party
Nebula Goat Appreciation Society
The Pioneer's Cooporative
Hagglebeard's Heroes


We need this station to have as many services as possible so CMDRS donate take your old computers to Kaushpoos
 
Evidently, someone is paying a great deal for these objects. The question is: who?"

What?

It is true, I am paying a huge amount for UAs. My entire bank balance at the moment actually. Yes, that's 4 cents, 2 buttons and something that I think once was a pistachio nut. Or not. Roll the dice, live dangerously.

I am very curious to see where any UAs will be found. If they are radiating out from Merope as their origin, then will we see a larger 'shell' in 1.5? Will the 1.5 prices give any hint of where they're found - if there is any distance<->price correlation.
 
I managed to get online yesterday, using my phone as an access point (went Solo to be 'safe').

Test performed: T6 with broken canopy and UA in hold. Let emergency oxygen run out (I switched to E-Class life support to shorten the suffering).

Result: Eject, eject, boom and re-buy.

Only thing worth noting is that when life-support is turned off manually there are choking noises the final 30 sec of O2 supply.
In the test setup, this did not occur. Probably because the entire sound picture changes with the busted canopy.
 
Brought my old Atari ST and TI99 4A to Neville H. - They looked at me funny but took them anyway .. will do a bit more tomorrow ;)

I laughed...

Keeping my ZX Spectrum to build my own probe to send back. See what they make of Sinclair Research technology.
Was top 15% when I logged out last night. Have been resisting doing anything UA related in the beta as well.
 
Hey everyone! as some of you may know, the Canonn is going to be featured on this week's episode of Educating Ed. We are planning a special "group hug" near the end of the show. If anyone would like to be involved, please send me a PM of your Commander Name (deja vu!!) We need to know asap! The event will be held Thursday, November 19th at 7pm server time. The stream will last an hour. We'll be meeting in Merope for the group hug on Ed's private server. I need your CMDR name before 9am GMT on Wednesday

Bonus points if you show up with a UA!!

i shall open it tomorrow before I call Ed on skype to finalize the deets!

I'd like to give a huge shout out to PsychoFish & Huros and everyone else who helped in the planning of this. Wouldn't have been possible otherwise! Also, LZ, who plopped this in our laps with less than a week to prepare ;) go Canonn!
 
UA price situation snapshot now:
49 Arietis [Gayman Dock]: now again 225K and 330K galctic avarage.
Fallback yesterday was maybe a simple bug.

Delta Pavonis [Hooper Relay] now 300K and 330K galactic avarage
Attention: this UA is a special one: not stolen. So not 1:1 comparable. Was also higher before.
So there must someone pay 350-360K (maybe 400K) somwhere!

For me it seems the GalNet news simple announce a bug fixing back to former price fluctuation at higher level.
With start 1.4 all blackmarkets have shown 150K and 220K galactic avarage. (99% a bug)
The indication error at sell row (one missing "0") ist stable ;-)

We salute you!

I'd like so much to participate, but it is unlikely... it's dinner time here, family things... :(
I'll try to follow you live! Send Ed my regards! :D
 
I don't think David would let me do a Cthulhu story in Elite - it would be fun though :) I do have a plan for a space opera with a similar theme though as a personal writing project.

MB! It would be wrong of me not to extend the "educating ed" invitation to a frequent UA-thread poster such as yourself. What are you up to at 7pm server time on the 19th? :D
