Dogs Fed, Walked and Bedded Down!

It's Going To Be a Fun and Profitable Four to Six hour session..!

I load up High Paying Tourists at my Secluded Cruise Ship Terminal and head out to my Destination Station 30K+ Ls from the Nav Beacon...

I'm Stoked!

I Wake Up 20K Ls PAST my Destination!
Damn It!!!
Turn Around and head back to my Destination... I'm WIDE Awake Now!
I Won't Miss It a Second Time!

I Wake Up nearly 10K Ls past the Star/Nav Beacon!
What The Heck Is Your Problem Mountain Dew?!?
Turn Around and head Back toward My Accursed Destination Again!
I'm Angry And Fully Awake Now!
Third Time Pays All!

I Wake Up!
Alarms Drowning Out Radio Sidewinder!
Front Window FULL of Angry Yellow-Red Star!
The Computer Yelling Something at me... Focus! What Was That?!?

EJECT, EJECT, EJECT..!!

I'm going to Bed!

yes yes all bad and alcohol and tiredness and such...

but.... just for curiosity:

at the point 10k out you head back to your nav target. then sleep.

you accidental achieved to head directly for a sun from that far out. that's quite the accident, but not my point.

your ship comes close to the sun box and drops out. after that your ship should have some speed, maybe full in normal cruise. but after a forced drop out the ship tumbles and rotates for a while.

now, now: after the tumbling your bad luck strikes AGAIN and the ship heads towards the sun and dies of heat.

pal, not a fault on your part. if bad luck strikes twice in a row you face the rebuy screen (ancient sumerian wisdom).

Naw Fellas...

It wasn't Boardem in particular, that got me Roasted.

It was a combination of:
A Lack of Sleep, been running the 10pm to 2am Tourist Run for the past several weeks.
A fairly long Run In to my Destination Station, better paying Tourists that way...
And the Hypnotica playing on Radio Sidewinder...
Oh! And a Super Comfortable Captain's Seat that Induced me to Nod Off...

Once Rhea got Burried in CMDR's last week I decided to go out an find my own Passenger Run more Off The Beaten Path with a Longer Run In... Once I got my Local Rep built up, the Decent paying missions started to flow...

I am currently building up an Outfitting Fund for my Cutter Trader...
Along with some extra Funds to finish Outfitting my Corvette Battle Wagon.

The Moral of the Story is sometimes its better to take a Night Off and catch up on Sleep...
