Explorers group selfie

Okay.
To allow some peeps to get back I suggest Saturday 27 Jun 2015 at 21:00 hrs (UK time).

Any suggestions on where we meet? I suggest its about 100Ly from the beaten track, somewhere pretty, or not.

Looks good to me (especially as I'm away next week until the 26th).
 
I'm too far away ATM.

Seems like it might be a good idea to plan this for a month or so from now so that people who are far away can better plan their journeys to make the event.
 
May I suggest my original idea of 1000LY , not 100LY, out ? It will keep most idiots away from us(though I will be armed to the teeth :D )

Sounds good to me. If it works out we can always do another one with more notice to let more long-range explorers attend.

At the rate I normally travel crossing the bubble is a few days time for me, so it'd be good if the location was announced fairly soon so I can plan for it. No specific suggestions - an ELW or a ringed giant might be good for photos, or perhaps a tight ternary system?
 
Assuming no catastrophic events occur I will be there with weapons to ensure no pesky wrongdoers :)
Is the plan just to get 32 players (or as many as possible) into an instance and have one of them take a picture?

FYI to everyone: Take shields because with that many players about lag is inevitable and will mean accidental collisions. I will be turning report crimes to off but be careful folks :)

I might turn up too. Currently just pootling around in my Clipper garnering exploration data for the current exploration CG.

Regards.

Yeah, if it's not too far away, I might come loaded for bear as well - the Clipper's range goes down a tad when loaded for bear ;)

Everyone without shields, one accidental Anaconda boost - the event turns into an explorer destruction derby... :D
 
Next question is: should someone form a private group for this? I can forsee some morons looking at this thread and planning something akin to what happened at Sag. A*

Just sayin'

Dont we cap the instance at 16 CMDRS? Needs to be observed...

I swear I'm fun at parties...

Instance limit is 32 CMDR's - in theory.
 
Yeah, that's been my worry as well. Chances are I'll be in some bar on a Saturday.

edit: Reacting to a post from last page. Red faces all around :eek:

Where'd your signature go Kancro? :)

If you refer to my post, I just say: I'll be over 20 miles (straight line) away from the nearest bar then. :)

Easy way is to take your laptop, hook up to WiFi in the middle of the bar, announce to the crowd that you are just going to meet up with a bunch of random people in a video game, when they jeer, tell them I'm buying the next round, and login. Most of us will understand the drunk-speak anyway. I'll keep shields up knowing the potential for spelling errors and collisions is high.... :p
