This now RNG dice is awesome.
Drinking Game:
Scan for 2-4 minutes at the Ruin site, ... roll dice
- Adjudication server error, have a sip.
- Crash to desktop. Empty the bottle.
Game on!
God no,, I'd have had six bottles in the last 20 minutes!
Crashed to desktop about 30-40 times yesterday. I've must been very drunk in this case 
Hi, just gone from the ruins to the outer arm of the galaxy and noticed
that some blue white stars aligned in parallax with the horsehoe galaxy ( beneath our own ) replicate the ancient ruins ie it is a map
visit the said blue white stars, that are in the active obelisk positions to visit the other ruin sites ?
I'm sitting looking at a blue white star triangle which 'overlays' an arm of the horsehoe galaxy, in a similar position to the ruins obelisk triangle

- If you reconnect to group and crash to desktop immediately, have a sip.
- Crash to desktop while scanning. Jackpot! Empty the bottle.

Wait... we talking just bout Beer right? (Even than rehearsal will get quite funny later
)

Is it just me or is the Alien ruins site even more unstable than before? Or are just too many people heading there?
GALNET News:
"Recently space travellers from all corners of galaxy have come to visit the Ancient Ruins.
Ram Tah has received much harsh criticism for what many think is a ill-considered request for help in gathering data for analysing the ruins.
The Canonn Interstellar Research Group have been observing, with great concern, as we've seen a huge increase in the number of drug related accidents near these fragile and precious relics.
Cmdr Delmonte, spokesperson for Canonn, issued this statement earlier today:
"We feel we must protect this area against irresponsible, drugged and ruthless pilots who have create havoc for nothing but their own personal gain.
Therefore, all pilots entering a zone of Ancient Ruins pulled over to the side for blood alcohol testing."
We've received no statements from the Federation regarding the issue."

Maybe I shouldn't have travelled there in my Onionhead painted Cobra. Obviously giving the wrong impression
I've spent some time stalking the Synuefe planetoids and was able to determine some general directions in relation to the galactic plane. Ancient Ruins not visible due to being on the back side of the southern hemisphere (behind the south pole).
Hopefully someone finds this useful while studying planetary and ruins alignments.

Galactic News: Clandestine Federal-Imperial Negotiations?
Animosity between the Empire and the Federation has been growing for months, but leaked communications suggest that clandestine negotiations may be taking place between the two superpowers.
Jason Nygaard, a reporter for The Federal Times, said:
"We believe the Federation is meeting with Imperial dignities behind closed doors. The nature of these meetings isn't clear, but we have noted unusual ship movements around the historic Cambridge space port."
Cambridge, once of the few ancient Earth cities preserved in its historic form, is notably free from surveillance. It has been associated with many remarkable events in its long history.

Feds and Imps joining forces before the storm?
I am more concerned with the other post. 19th January (condensed Sirius CG article): "In support of this programme, the Sirius Corporation has placed an open order for unknown fragments, untypical shield scans and aberrant shield pattern analysis, and promised to reward pilots who deliver these materials to Cormack Hub in the Procyon system."
20th January Sirius CG ends "A spokesperson for the Sirius Corporation has announced that its appeal for microresources has been enthusiastically received by the galactic community. Hundreds of pilots responded to the corporation's appeal by delivering Unknown Energy Source, Shield Density Reports and Shield Pattern Analysis to Cormack Hub in the Procyon system."
So what are these "Unknown Energy Sources"? Someone has decided Unknown Artefact fragments are Energy Sources??? Is this the way FD are going to tell us about new research breakthroughs?
I know I'm about 30 pages behind at the moment, but what is going on?
If someone did, I'd love to see it. I was examining if for example, there'd be any significance with the shape of the ruins compared to some nearby star systems (think Voyager Golden Record).
I did just a quick gander at the closest neutron stars to the system containing the ruins. There are 6 within 300 ly. Omega Carinae, 40 Upsilon-2 Hydrae, Beta Muscae, Beta Hydrae, i Eridani and HR 4832. Took some pics of the galactic map and drew some quick lines to them from it, though again, it's just another stab in the dark that might amount to nothing
AFAIK the Galactic Map doesn't really provide proper tools for this, so as just a quick measure I took 6 pictures from around it and drew lines (approximately S, W, E, N, Up and Down). Not all were properly visible from all angles. And of course I didn't properly label which picture I took from which angle cause I'm a pillock.

Seems to happen when another commander is parked behind the obelisk
If you are talking about "Imps", it was intentional

FD ACKNOWLEDGED WE ARE NOT THAT SMART TO FIND OTHER RUIN SITES
Let's do the CG then!
AND WE'LL HAVE ANOTHER SITE HANDED ON A TECHNETIUM PLATE...
Where/when did this new ruins CG come from? It isn't showing in my Galnet. I noted it started yesterday 20th January, so I've looked back to 17th but it just is not showing....??????
Checked the FAQ's again, didn't see a ref to the question.
Sign up in Meene, Felice Dock, think it appeared because the Sirius one completed in about five hours, and they maybe felt we needed a nudge in the right direction anyway
If you're not aware, CG shows up in Galaxy map, or while docked at any station - you can check the ongoing list in the mission board.
You are right, I should update the FAQ - then again with the new CG I am now wrong anyway

Don't be discouraged. The beauty of this thread is that anyone can contribute, whatever their level of experience/knowledge/gaming time etc, you just need to follow the scientific method. I read your theory, but it didn't capture my interest and left you to make the predictions from it and find the evidence to support your theory; as I think others did also. Now you seem to be saying your predictions were successful & you've found something. That is excellent news, but the scientific method requires a theory, reasoned predictions from it and then supporting data, the proof; several people asked you to post visual evidence but as far as I can see all we got was a picture of a crater on some planet with no settlement, ruins or anything else visible, & no cockpit screenshot to show the system/planet names and no coordinates. That is what caused the furore.
I apologise if this has already happened (I'm about 25 pages behind on this thread) but please explain more clearly your theory, details of the event (astronomical alignment of bodies?) that triggered you on this path and give us the visual evidence. Also video of this singing that you mention. The game produces all sorts of music and sounds, some seem to be significant & others less so. I am intrigued by singing since this has been mentioned many times in relation to alien encounters (e.g. Jaques' & Halsey's jump mishaps, also some beacon logs) but nothing has yet been recorded to provide evidence. I have not been to the ruins myself so am not aware of any singing encountered there.
If you have failed to support your theory then that is also fine, this is the way that science works, even knowledge of failed theories can help but without providing any clear reasoning or evidence then you are not helping us to move forward.
That was me. On heading 250 degrees off the "arrow". Moon rises just about dead on balls
