Send me a pm with your CMDR name and your post in the arrivals form to get in the next batch. This will be the last batch. Anyone else who has problems will need to contact frontier support directly

Ive sent you a PM couple o weeks ago but havent got a response. Is my name on the list too or did my pm not get through for some reason?

All pms received! I just don't read them until I do the batch, so I can filter by "unread"
Thanks, Cmdr
Take care

Welcome home, Ed Lewis o7.
Welcome back to the bubble Ed Lewis o7
I watched the livestream of the last run-in. There was a hair-raising moment when he nearly burned up ~30 jumps from home, as a result of someone else in the office distracting him with talk of food whilst he was scooping ... people in the chat were shouting warnings of HEAT and his cabin temperature climbed to 160%. I wonder if it might be appropriate for that system to be renamed something like 'Intern's Folly' in the Mapping Project? I'll leave it to Ed to submit as a POI, though, maybe he'd rather forget about it... (it was a really close call: he lost several systems, discovery scanner included, and his life support was reduced to 18%)

Hey guys, I've got a tricky SLFighter race course set up for the December Waypoint 24 meetup, and did a test video of the run. It is unlisted so don't overtly share, but I'd appreciate if some people could comment (on the video) if it's too hard or any other tips: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82aJTvLwk8Y

I think you won't be able to cross the Abyss with a 30ly Asp, you may need to turn back at try it via Roncevaux to the East.
Try the Smugglers path :

...or Route 33 :

It seems that you know my Route 33?
Your 2nd screenshot shows that you are (or were?) in Cho Thua QD-Z c27-0. This is one of the systems of Route 33 and Pyrie Eurk QX-U e2-0 (Distant view in blue) is one of your bookmarks
The first screenshot shows systems a hundred LYs southeast, did you come that way?
The route planner will now not work as it does in areas with higher density of stars. The most time you have to jump system by system, step by step.
For distances that exceed your jump range, you have to jump by jump on fumes or using Jumponium (I hope you have some?). With jump on fumes you can not plot a route, you have to select the system and jump then, as well as jump with Jumponium.
For example: Chua Eohn GA-F c28-0 (the next system in Route 33) is 30.5 LYs away from Cho Thua QD-Z c27-0. So you either have to burn some fuel (your 2nd Screenshot shows that your current jump range is 30.49) or use Jumponium LVL 1.
And if you do use jumponium, be extra careful that you have enough to get back out if you hit a dead end. CMDR Macedonica and I both made that mistake. And be aware of shared materials when you count up how much J1, J2 and J3 you have! If you burn a J1 that's effectively a J2 gone as well — the miscalculation I made.

You can't cross Route33 with that range without jumponium. It's going to be a bit of a trek, but come back out and head closer to the Roncevaux Crossing. You will be able to cross there.
Isn't the last jump to Beagle Point 34 or so light years? Without jumponium the posted Asp won't be able to make that hop either...
Did u bring an SRV? I'd be gathering some jump materials regardless.....always better to have options
