Additional Comments: I was on track to arrive in time for Ed's livestream when I got stuck around 4,000Ly from Beagle by using my last jumponium to jump to a system which a) I couldn't get out of without more jumponium and b) didn't have any jumponium. Oops. So I set off again on April 24th Buckyball style.

Player Factions/Groups I am aligned with: DISC. SEPP (loosely.)
Home system: Various.
Number of times I had to return to the bubble: 1. Well, 0, I didn't have to return, but after flying with the main fleet for most of the outward leg, I diverted to do some research and then returned home, bummed around the Bubble for a month and finally Buckyballed out in a 'Conda (the good ship Corporate "Rock".)
List of players I hung out with: the Python gang.
Statement about the expedition: I'm too drained to make a long statement. Did what I intended, more or less. All's good.

Date of Arrival May 17 or 18th 2016 (played well past midnight)
Additional comments:

This was a fun and enormous undertaking since my wife and I work opposite schedules. Very rewarding and my kids were excited I made it all the way across. Many thanks to the organizers and to the Commanders that wrote up the guides to show me the way to Beagle point low on jumponium. Now the trip home...

Sorry late seeing this, busy bee on RL. I am on beta and I'm not seeing any DWE decals. Is there a problem?
Last edited:
- Yes, open a ticket
- No, do not open a ticket
- DWE only available to non-chimp avatars
- DWE only available to sigs with just one stripe
- Did you go to Beagle Point?
- Who are you?
tl; dr: The DWE decals should be available when 1.6/2.1 is released.
(sorry, couldn't help it
)

No problem at all.
Stuff takes time, the Doc never said all of us would get it during the Beta. If you're not on the official list after June 5, you're allowed to start worrying. No Probs. I arrived BP on the 30 Mar and my roster number is #15. My submission was posted. https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=238632Hopefully that wont preclude me from the list Hopefully (fingers crossed).
Hopefully (fingers crossed).

---------------------
Change of Ship Details
Ship type: Asp
Ship name: Cleopatra II
Jump range: 32.5
------------------
Player Factions/Groups I am aligned with: FGE
Number of times I had to return to the bubble: 3 - first time I lost an SRV messing around on a mountain near an early WP. Headed back for replacement and gone blasted to smithereens 1 jump from a station. 2nd time was because I found an untagged ELW about 10,000ly out and just couldn't *not* go back. The proceeds allowed me to park up 'the Brick' (T6) and purchase the Asp (Cleopatra). the 3rd time was after an unfortunate gravitational incident during a photo shoot a couple of systems out from Sag A* - this incident put me sooo far behind the main fleet that I would never catch (I was only a few days behind when it happened and had two long weekends pending.....they ended being used to catch up the the FGE fleet)
List of players I hung out with: KJKB1980, Wishblend, Corbin Moran, Chrystoph, Botacalor, mostly - there were plenty of others along the way that I couldn't possible list all!
Statement about the expedition: My previous (and 1st) trip was 1000ly or so to Barnards - mostly using economy....3 months. The scale of this adventure is mind boggling frankly. And almost every single waypoint has been spectacular along the way - truly, a great job guys. The scale of the universe is almost depressing - getting across the abyss was such an achievement....only to realise there was STILL another 10,000ly to go...oh man.
I have learnt HEAPS. My first (err couple) ship(s) I used the AFMU.....a lot. Don't know why tbh, just lots of dumb mistakes. This ship is still at 99/100% (depends on the day it seems) and most modules are 99% so I never bothered topping them off. Yet, at the same time, I've gone from taking several minutes per system, to learning too fast modes: 'buckyballing' - around 47 secs per system, no opening of system map, and 'fast travel' - around 58 secs per system including adding distance to next system into EDD and thus also seeing what the next star is and opening system map and aborting FSD if there's anything interesting.
I've also discovered the joy of meet-ups with folks from across the globe in RL and have loved reading the stories and seeing the pictures along the way. It truly has been epic, and whilst I'm glad it's done, I'm also sad it's done. The return trip will be much less organised and regimented which is both good, and bad - probably it will be much more lonely.
So finally, truly a big thanks to everyone involved - it has been absolutely awesome!
