The road to 3000

[CMDR CHIGGY VONRICTOFEN]

So, the circumnav to map all the ELWs from my 3 previous trips around the outer edge of the galaxy is over. The total now stands at 2571. Looking through all of my notes..and doing a bit of the maths, the ELW hit rate on all 4 trips was between 75:1 and 78:1 filtering for A & F (and G when needed for higher density navigating) and also excluding previously discovered ELWs by other CMDRs.
Sooo.... I dumped the exploraconda, broke out my original AspX, and cut a trail back to the ZUNOU sector, to continue working my E cube of 8 D cubes. It would seem the last update scrambled most of my days of work hacking the navcomputer, so I have been repairing that as I restart my search.

9 more found yesterday (2580 total)

Hey,
After a long break i'm also back in Zunou to finish off MT-z sub sector.
It's a real pain scanning every D mass star in the cube rather than a more targeted search, but I feel I should finish what I started.
Up to 6300 scanned so far. Just found an ELW in a n F9 system too.
Will catch up soon.

 

[CMDR CHIGGY VONRICTOFEN]

Welcome back!

 

[CMDR CHIGGY VONRICTOFEN]

Total up to 2608.....Happy Ungrateful Colonial Traitors day everyone!

 

[CMDR CHIGGY VONRICTOFEN]

A few more from the weekend.....total up to 2640...The NN-B cube is running a hit rate of 1 in 42 after 2050 searched.

 

[mpfj]

... a hit rate of 1 in 42 after 2050 searched.

Good stats ... I'm now on 1 in 58.75 after 12926 (94% complete)

In the home stretch, eh?

In the home stretch, eh?

Yup .. nearly there.

Then I've got about 270 systems to revisit to check interesting / shiny things plus I'll need to map all the ELWs from before the FSS was introduced.

But should (hopefully) be done in a few weeks ... and then take a well earned break

 

[CMDR CHIGGY VONRICTOFEN]

14 more from yesterday and today. 2932 searched so far with 67 ELWs found, 1 in 43.76 hit rate. 2663 total.

 

[CMDR CHIGGY VONRICTOFEN]

19 more, last one was only 1000ish ly from Sol, came in to try my hand at the new mining. Total confirmed ELWs is now 2682.

... came in to try my hand at the new mining ...

Because your 25Bn in the bank isn't enough for a fleet carrier ??

Just in case it isn't...hehee. I'm back out in ZUNOU now.

I don't know how you guys do it. It seams to take forever to finish 'my' cube. Systems total : 13,162 - Remaining: 9,921 - Ratio: 1:67

filter for not visited....use mpfj's sector lister to eliminate unwanteds...then just slow troll on economy is how I do it.. on a good day...I can go through 150-200 or so.

Interesting. I book mark 80 systems. Jump to the first in the list. Scan it. Delete the bookmark. Jump to the next and so on.
I'll check out the SectorLister. Thanks.

The more time you can avoid being in the Galmap, the more time that can be spent checking another system. As you jump, each one is auto wiped from the map so you never visit that system again.go top to bottom..side to side...just make you a course on economy , stop to check the blue blob screen..and on to the next..
