You V The Weekend: A challenge and of course tell us everything now or Tj gets it

Pirates – Time to tell us which kind of Parrot you have!

It's blue, has several arms, makes weird noises, chews everything, likes to cause mischief. If not found on my shoulder, please find him re-enacting Godzilla with kids toy towns.

For reference, please see picture of parrot within my display pic.
 
Cheers Bran, another event I'm excluded from, you are so Theoist............:O

I thought I may have been in the race last time, pictures of the mods I do have, but alas, apparently the one I 'found' of Agony Aunt, handcuffs, gag, odd shaped potato and all falls fowl of forum rules - go figure.

My apologies Theo, in a bid to make it up to you I have a special challenge just for you. Build the fastest ship you can. Then travel to the Hollow and drop to normal space when you are behind the moon. The challenge is to land before the moon gets to far away... If this happens, come to a full stop, wait for the moon to orbit and then land with FA Off... Simples! :D

I always imagined you to to have a Raven that talks...

I'll be trying to give gold to beginners in Eravate again tonight. Didn't go well last time. You wouldn't believe how hard it is to give away gold in this game. Maybe a less threatening ship...

More work for faction, liberally interspersed with popping over the border to mess with the Alliance. Gotta keep them on their toes.

Good luck with the running/ quitting smoking.

I'll have your gold if your feeling generous. 😁
 
Oh, I landed on Mitterrand Hollow last night - the fastest moon in recorded history. Took me over ten minutes to get into position (finally decided to give up chasing, and come around from the other side). Nah, I'm not doing that again.

Perhaps I'll continue looking for signs of CMDRs in the Asia-Pacific instances. I've been hanging around Sirius for the last few days doing stuff, and it's been quite uneventful.
 
I've parked myself out in the Guardian Ruins once again, working on a fantastic spreadsheet I've been at for quite a while now.

Here's a little snip of a previous work-in-progress shot I grabbed:

The check-boxes are interactive, and it keeps a running count of both how many of each category data you've found, as well as a running grand total.
Each is commented with an image of the corresponding cluster, which I'll be refining further to highlight the specific obelisk in that cluster as well as coding each entry to correspond to the system and site where these are.
There is a also a list of systems, planets and sites at the bottom which will be sorted based on their distance from Meene and each other, to make an optimal route through the ruins to retrieve all data items.

It's been a long, slow work-in-progress for a while now, but it's coming along and hope to finish it over the weekend.
 
Welcome CMDR's,

Right, lets get the training update out of the way first... Stopped smoking, went jogging, got angry at blisters... Still not smoking though – May led to excessive grumpiness.

I quit smoking cigarettes 12 years ago. Just picked cigars up about a year ago. At least the lungs are ok. As someone said long ago, I might start smoking again, but I'll never quit again.
 
Explorer's – Are you there yet?

No, stop asking!

... land on Mitterand's Hollow ...

Sounds a bit rude, so might give that a miss.

P.S. I've still not decided on a new ship for my alt. account despite the best attempts at selling me one by some rather dodgy sounding/looking sales people!

How dare you, madam! My offer was only slightly dishonest, misleading and disingenuous! But as a show of good faith, I'll reduce the price to 310 million credits (I hope he doesn't remember the original price was 300 million) ;)

Do stick it on Dognosh's thread - gonna do that Guardians ruins mission very shortly (once I stop getting distracted), have his route 2 to follow, but if there's a different one always good to have options!

I had a crow once.
Called him Luftwaffe.

Found him in a rather bad shape, beneath it's parents nest.

He turned out to be a really funny guy.
And when he grew up, he was, of course, free to roam as he liked.

When I whistled "our special signal", he always answered; in this this, almost peculiar merry way - and came flying.
Of course, he knew I had food; but it was really special.

He used to land in front of people going for a walk with their dogs, and behave in an extremely challenging way towards the dog.
The dogs, and especially their owners, always looked extremely confused. :D

Milton Keynes? Not far from where I lived for about 8 years. Middleton Cheney. Banbury area for the uninitiated. That was about 100 years ago. Good times.
