So they have changed galnet news drop times to a lot later ok...
CG predictions...
- Thread starter CMDR Serra
- Start date
Please let us know of any developments Thursday as no CG's for last few weeks - I am at work tomorrow.
My CG predictions are a Salvage CG for dead thargoid ship materials from Scythes
or yet again flossy will have to post no CG again for LIVE...
Legacy bots allready have a AX CG running...
edit = Confirmed no LIVE. CGs expected for a long time...

Aegis Investigates Missing Populations
An analysis of survivors from recent Thargoid conflicts and invasions has raised the possibility of human abductions on a colossal scale.
Professor Alba Tesreau, head of Aegis, delivered a personal statement to the media:
“A few months ago I was contacted by Zuri Afolayan , a senior analyst for Safeguard Interstellar. Her job involves collating civil and military data to determine where emergency aid is most needed. She had identified consistent discrepancies between the registered populations of Thargoid-occupied systems and all confirmed deaths, refugees and stranded survivors.”
“Aegis performed detailed comparisons of Ms Afolayan’s findings with other sources. This led to one inescapable conclusion: tens of millions of people have vanished since the start of the war.”
“No doubt many deaths have gone unrecorded, and many others have fled into deep space. But the recent appearance of the Scythe-class hunter, coupled with events aboard the Dedicant megaship, suggest that at least some have been taken into captivity.”
“I am very conscious that this statement may be seen as alarmist and speculative. But our xenologists and strategists are considering the implications of a mass abduction programme by the Thargoids. Any opportunity to recover these lost souls will be explored as a priority.”
Field correspondent Ernesto Rios published his observations via Vox Galactica:
“It’s a well-documented fact that Thargoid vessels occasionally take onboard occupied escape pods. But Aegis now believes that the aliens are no longer just attacking humanity – they are attempting to capture us alive en masse.”
“What are we to them? Prisoners of war? Food for their young? Fuel for their biomechanical technology? Or is this just misinterpreted data and battlefield rumours? In my career I have heard many of these, and in this instance I’m praying that is the case.”
I was hoping for something along those lines as well, as I quite like farming scythes. (its relatively chill) Lets hope its not as bad "no Live CG's for a long time"
Hmmm, twiddling thumbs and logging off - been harvesting/baiting Scythes for membranes on FC and seem to have very little value and no purpose in game.
If you weren’t enjoying it then you were right to stop, but if you were enjoying it then why are you punishing yourself?
Distant Thargoid Encounter Raises Questions
An independent explorer has reported an unusual incident involving a Thargoid vessel, hundreds of light years away from the ongoing invasion.
Commander Renia Rakowski told her story to Vox Galactica:
“I’d been gathering exploration data for weeks without seeing another soul. Boring, I know, but I like a quiet life. As I jumped out of the Wregoe GA-X B3-0 system, my ship rocked violently and I panicked, thinking the hyperdrive had failed. I barely saw it at first, black against the black of space, until its outline glowed. A Thargoid interceptor. Just like on the newsfeeds, but right outside my canopy.”
“I’ve never been in combat before, and my ship carries no weapons anyway, so I thought this was the end of me. My heart was drumming as I stared at the alien, and it stared back like some giant lidless eye. A writhing light lashed out, this rasping howl came over the comms, and then… it left. I wasn’t dead, which was quite the surprise.”
“I watched it gliding away, its petals rotating and revolving, sort of beautifully I suppose. It actually turned its back on me, like I was some insignificant speck unworthy of attention. I’ve never been so glad to be boring.”
Commodore Emil Varga, the Alliance’s military liaison to Aegis, provided a follow-up statement:
“This incident took place a considerable distance from the Maelstroms. Initially, we feared this was evidence that new Titans had arrived and were performing a flanking manoeuvre. However, if the interceptor had been part of the invasion fleets, it would have opened fire immediately after hyperdiction occurred.”
“The immediate area around Wregoe GA-X B3-0 contains no barnacle sites or records of Thargoid activity that we’re aware of. Universal Cartographics confirmed we have some basic exploration data for that part of the Wregoe sector, but no previous Thargoid encounters. Civilians are warned to stay away from that region until we know more.”
EDSM records for the system say 3 visits total - one to catalogue it originally about 4 years ago, then 2 "in the last 24 hours" presumably to see if the Interceptor is still there. It's certainly not a well-travelled part of space normally - and the system itself appears to just be a no-planets binary. Of course, if they were hyperdicted outbound from it, it may be where they were going next which was more interesting.
No PFA meant to mean NO in game content yet... so can be build up till the server hits a set time and then the PFA news will go active...
I just searched for Renia Rakowski and Emil Varga and got no matches. I don't know if they actually exist 
Emil Varga has been mentioned in Galnet before and is definitely a NPC.I just searched for Renia Rakowski and Emil Varga and got no matches. I don't know if they actually exist
Renia Rakowski fits the Frontier-standard name generation pattern so very likely isn't a player CMDR either.
Well, I just got 1st jump time of 19 minutes so going to go up over next couple of hours as everyone gets home (UK time, anyway) and all are fed up with no CG's for 3rd week running.
Guess it will go up a lot and I'll have to go to the pub - shame
2nd jump 21 minutes, 3rd jump just now says 24 minutes..........will be there after 4th jump so when I come back from pub I can explore - unless Cannon got it completely.......................Well, I just got 1st jump time of 19 minutes so going to go up over next couple of hours as everyone gets home (UK time, anyway) and all are fed up with no CG's for 3rd week running.

Alien Abduction Evidence Increases
Newsfeeds and ICE-casts have reacted to Aegis’s theory that the Thargoids have purposefully captured tens of millions of living humans.
Eyewitness testimonies provided by independent pilots have given credence to this theory. Citizens’ Chronicle featured the following account from Imperial auxiliary Commander Luca Redondo:
“It was a sickening sight, watching Scythes hunt down survivors. A part of me wanted to start blasting the escape pods rather than let those poor people be eaten, or experimented on, or whatever the hell the Thargoids want them for. There was nothing my squadron could do to save them, not without risking the refugees we were carrying. I don’t think I’ll be sleeping well for a long time.”
Many reporters have interviewed people still waiting to hear from those who once lived in Thargoid-occupied systems. Vox Galactica has published several such stories:
“My ex-husband took our kids to visit his family last November, just before the Maelstroms arrived. Their last message was so happy, telling me their adventures, promising to call me tomorrow. But there was no tomorrow. Just static from the entire system. Every day since then I’ve contacted the refugee centres, repeating their names over and over. It’s my whole life now. There’s nothing else.”
An editorial in The Federal Free Press called for greater pressure to be placed on Aegis and the authorities:
“It’s outrageous that this was kept out of the public domain for so long, with the Thargoids taking prisoners for months. Why was this suppressed by those in power? We owe it to those millions of people to do everything we can to rescue them.”
An alternative viewpoint was outlined by Timothy Culver, a prominent xeno-peace activist, on his ICE-cast channel:
“Humans have been capturing and experimenting on Thargoids since we first encountered them, so we certainly don’t occupy the moral high ground. But I also believe that they are primarily seeking to understand us. I urge everyone to study Commander Rakowski’s recent report, which proves that not every Thargoid vessel sees us as an enemy.”
Prediction = Legacy AX CG tomorrow run by bots. That will be all there will be there is...
When is update 17 due ???
