Scanned around 15 M systems around j0737, without results.
So many permutations, I mean all the clues are vaguer than the ramblings of a person under sedation but that could be any combination of things in a system really as long as it includes the M class and whatever else was specified and is near binary pulsars. Bodies can be moons, planets, gas giants, other suns.... we need to pop more clues
If you go the easy way, yes. But if you try the double pulsar thing the possibilities are very rare.
Never mind.
I go there by myself.
Quick PSA, for anyone doing the CG in Cail, that Bluford Gateway has definitely run dry, only 90t left whilst I'm sat here now.
Isn't this the type of system we're looking for?
Having time to reflect, I'm left with a different outlook on the events of the 28th and I must thank FD for the efforts. With the mechanics we have in place and based upon events in the past how could we not realize just what this hunt would entail. I believe the anger and outrage, some perhaps warranted, stem from the mere fact of feeling left out because we didn't encounter the contact personally. This wasn't a scavanger hunt, where everybody gets to get a clue, no, this was simply a hunt and while, yes, some sort of exciting climax to day 1 of the hunt would have been nice, knowing that it wasn't done in just one day and that their is still more to come is exciting. I too hated the fact that I didn't get to find any of the special contacts but the expeirence of being surrounded by all those CMDR's, all with the same purpose was thrilling. Chatting as each second counted down till the next appearnace and next clue, the linked picture sums it up for me. I met some cool CMDR's, had some fun conversations and when got a rush the each time the countown hit 0 and we were off to see if we would be the ones lucky enough to catch the contact. In this regard the hunt was a success, it got the community together, gave us some puzzles and set up a path to getting the secret instead of everything culimnating in one day. It may not be ideal and for some the OPEN aspects were a burden, but as someone who mostly plays SOLO, I enjoyed my journey into open and in fact am currently in OPEN and intend to stay that way. I feel we could benefit from monthly or annual hunts or community events like this, apart from the regular CG's that go on. Yes, it sucks that I didn't get the initial clues but, even this CG we are currently working on now give me that feeling of adventure and something mysterious to find. The added bonus of making some good money in the mean time is great. I'll finally be able to afford my PYTHON and I know by the end of this whole hunt I will have some fun experiences that no other game may present. I'll meet some more cool CMDRS and in the end, a new expansion and alien gameplay will be a fair reward. So chin up, hopefully FD can take some lessons from this hunt and improve upon the next aspects. Fly safe CMDR's.

Best hope they don't want 6000000 tons of Lavian Brandy.
Sure, the more the merrier, but please consider it doen't have to be a system with just one M star, or if that's a lie who knows. As for "Near" what do you class as near in exploration terms, for me it's withint 200 ly but if you see the amount of M class stars out that way you will understand why I'm not searching them all with partial info which may or may not contain a lie.
There has been enough jumping the gun recently
When it's resolved a little more then I'll search, but if you get bored out there message me and I'll wing with you.....and if you turn in any of the earth likes I noticed on the way out there I will hunt you down and shoot you

I expect the CG in Cail to be completed when we reach 5 000 000 tons
Guy on reddit named leibherk found that Pleiades sector VK-N B7-4 has an M class star with 10 planets and three of them landable.
only 5 billon units

If your looking for a system with binary neutron stars near to the bubble, try my website:
http://www.hozbase.co.uk/elitedangerous/specialstarsystems/distancefrom/sol/3000
This will lists among other things all systems with multiple neutron stars close to the bubble. Not all are listed only those with known coordinates, as in those known by ESDM or EDDB.

Are we assuming that 2 of the 3 people always tell the truth?
I think we have to otherwise all the clues become pointless.
Based on that I think it's most likely that Dillon is the liar:
- Logan Kohl (Red Trader), found in Cail at 10:00, told us "One of my friends always lies. The system has a single M-class star." He also offered a second clue in exchange for narcotics.
- Mahina Dillon, found in Apademak at 15:00, told us "I visited a rocky planet at latitude 34 near binary pulsars." She also offered a second clue in exchange for tobacco.
- Otto Granger found in Apademak at 21:00, saying"I visited a system with 10 bodies and one sun. after the incident I woke up in a system far away." He asked to bring him Lavian Brandy in Scott Orbital, to give us some other clues.
Kohl isn't lying and states a single M-class star.
Granger confirms that with his 'one sun'.
Making Granger the liar requires a bit more work by assuming that Kohl left something out: 'a single M-class star' plus other stars that he didn't mention.
Therefore, we should probably treat Dillon's clue as NOT statements:
- not a rocky planet
- not at latitude 34
- not near binary pulsars
Which leaves us an awful lot of candidates:
- A single 'M' class star.
- 10 planetary bodies (including satellites).
- Anything with at least 1 non-rocky landable (although this assumes that we need to land which is not confirmed by Kohl or Granger yet).
'The truth' could maybe be found by luck but this is a pretty wide search and the extra clues should help narrow it down.
I'm not sure I'd go any further than identifying candidate systems - do we have a list for that?
If there isn't a list, I've made one:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1IM-8hIa1zsgz3iQ9uwPdymm7qQmHdEynG243AD0sTsY/edit#gid=0
I think Pic Tok fits the criteria, but I don't have a system map to link yet or a distance - can anyone confirm that it fits.

no list, still holdin the dillon lied part up too, there is 2 araund cail and 1 in the plaideas that i know of

i feel like maybe kohl's second clue will be enough to find the location
There's a lot of smart people here, but I very much doubt FD is going to let that happen. Perhaps we'll get lucky and find it, but then what do we do until 2.2? Grind....
