A Lavigny-Duval Cycle Two Target Discussion

I assumed we'd get a choice to nominate Caverda last cycle. Instead we've ended up with lower cc systems for expansion.

Our total CC to spend this cycle is still at 1038, it should have went up if we expanded to the 3 expansion systems. Anyone remember what they were called, and see them on our controlled list?
They were all unopposed from what I saw.
We also had most places fortified, so that should have saved us money too.
 
Nominations add 100 preparation points guys. I just noted that. Use them wisely, do not add your nominations to systems we don't want obviously.

Edit: Okay.. either they only add 100 on the first nomination or the 3 systems I gave a nomination to happened to jump up by 100 right as I was nominating. I put 3 into Vodyanes to try and get it past Guathiti but adding 2 more only added 1 prep point.

I think they're on our control list. Wasn't Vish one of them?

Cool.

That should give the active members a way to quickly get desired systems onto the list.

In beta it was only 1 merit...
 
Guathi is still getting prepped and HIP just moved up under Caverda, Vodyanes was bumped down to 8th.

How often does the in game info refresh? It's been saying the same thing for the last hour now.

It seems to be some time. I was wondering the same thing. I think I got it to update after 10 minutes? It doesn't seem to update if you are looking at it unless you force a refresh by nominating.
 
Carverda and HIP 18714 are in the same sector (they're both on the list, so far). Pick one or the other. Wasteful to do both if they're within each others' spheres.

I also didn't realise they where so close until I dropped 50 prep into HIP, we should prioritise Carverda, as it's slight better.

Also a quick unrelated FYI for hunters, HIP 18714 has three High Intensity RES right next to the station.
 
Right where do you want my support? I'm not sure there's much point in continuing to prep AB Pictoris now, without help I'm never going to get it over the toxic systems that someone has selected.

Ngarawe or Lutni are probably my best options (with a short ranged Courier), Ualak looks tasty but is rather far out.

Suspecting sabotage at play here. Need more space truckers to haul out to the more desirable systems.

Or to at least read the forums and not do whatever they want...

Not sure it's sabotage, looks more like laziness as it's right in the middle.
 
we have 4, should be 6 though.

I'm guessing it was "supposed to be 6" based on the estimated 'CC to spend this month' of the Preparation screen. I believe, now that we've seen what happened to Hudson and Winters, that that number assumes that all Control systems are successfully Fortified and not Nullified by Undermining. We were nullified in ~4 systems, so we lost over 200cc we thought we had to invest.

So remember, before you go all out preparing, Expand and Fortify to 100%. If we are being undermined in the Expansion Crime Sweeps, keep going over 100%. Do not fortify over 100% if you can help it.

Unless your hold is already full of data, Fortify for now. If it is full, adding them to Lutni can't hurt at this point. Tewi is a nearby Control system that only has Outposts. (No Large pads) Sadly, those Outposts are 24k Ls out. It passes pretty quickly once you start heading out there.

Let's not start crying sabotage. Data packets and Preparation systems will even out in a couple of days and we'll know where we need to focus our efforts. By then, hopefully we'll be done Fortifying and well on our way to Expanding.
