Logged on in my buggy to find the CMDRs in the post above (I think) doing their thing

That's really useful to know. I'm trying to avoid any damage whatsoever and certainly don't intend having to do another BRB so didn't really know how close you could get. But even dropping out at 46km your heat was still quite low.

Black Holes really aren't much of a danger, their exclusion zones are fairly small. You're very unlikely to hit it unless you're aiming right at it.

Made this several months ago.

There was a third commander following a little way behind, but I think I managed to warn him after I fell but before he reached the point of no return

That was me, thanks for the warning, I made it back out unscathed.

Cool, would like to see those. There was a third commander following a little way behind, but I think I managed to warn him after I fell but before he reached the point of no return. I do remember you and I think an Anaconda flying around in the trench though. If it had been lighter I probably wouldn't even have considered going that far, but fortunately one lives and learns...

Yeah I saw that third buggy back a bit, don't think he followed through however.

Here are the only shots I took of you guys driving down into that immense ravine:






I think I left for space before the other commander blew up.

I really liked WP07, that was a fun and awesome planet.

Found an unclaimed planetary nebula on the way to WP8, also had a system 0.68 LY away so I went for an outside view and was blown away.

Goodbye Stellar forge, not only making stars, blue rainbows as well.

The sky starts to look pretty intimidating already.

Batten down the hatches, major storm front made of light moving in. Welcome to wp8.

No problem, glad to hear it!

Nice! If i could have seen that drop off from my SRV i'd have turned back much sooner.

(can't rep again so soon, so have a virtual one instead )

Woah, nice!

I just tried to take off from wp8, like normal vertical thrust up, and I'm immediately greeted by a shields off-line warning, sparks flying and hull damage. Now my ship looks like this.

Spoiler

40k round trip for repairs already, yet at this rate I might not make to Beagle point...
Plus I didn't want to tour the galaxy in a ship looking like a cheese grater this time :/

Waypoint 7 and its shenanigans.
Also, the end somehow turned into a heartfelt thank you to all of those involved in DW. Funny how that happens. o7

Adding one more vista from WP7, it never gets old approaching and seeing all those parked ships

Still want to know where the '[Distant Worlds] I'm out!" thread is.

I also couldn't find such a thread, but I think it would be useful. I offer to open and maintain such a thread,
but I never did that so, should I give it special considerations? Should I get in touch with the DW organizers first?
Any advise would be appreciated.

We're trying to find them for now, but haven't made such progress.
Next plan is to contact those where we think they have returned early to be sure and track.

What you can do, is helping me and give me reports
Lots of users so I cannot do everything myself.

You can look on EDSM where the participants are and contact those that are not moving or transmitting their logs to see where they are.
There is also a Google Doc that track some of the participants.

Aye, can do that. Shall I pm you with those informations?
And for starters, Zenith stated he is out, but edsm doesn't reflect that.

You're talking about Zenith Ddraiglas?
If so, ok it is updated on EDSM.

 

[NCC71201]

Yeah, that's him. Thanks

Good luck keeping it! I suspect a few people have seen it, scanned it, and not made comment....
