I just received another
TIP OFF message from the
mysterious stranger. Here are the circumstances which generated the message. I returned to Quator Station in the Quator system with a bunch of cargo from salvage missions. I turned in two Personal-Effects salvage missions to the Alliance Rapid-Reaction Corps faction. I was already maxed out on rep with this faction from performing numerous missions with them. I spent a lot of time in the system recently due to the CG that ended today (Mon, Oct 28, 2019), although the CG didn't really involve this faction.
After turning in the first of the two missions, the mission-completion screen displayed a message at the top (as mission completions always do). It was from Progenitor Hayden Landry about how I have really stepped-up & responded to the extraordinary circumstances and needs they are experiencing. (This isn't verbatim. Part of the problem in reporting these is that the messages are somewhat routine. When cranking many of these missions, most of us probably barely read them.) When you discover that it would have been useful to know their contents more exactly, it's too late.
After turning in the second of these missions, the Progenitor's message on the mission-completion screen was the same EXCEPT it was appended with something like: '
Quid pro quo, here's something for you. Check your inbox' Then I heard the message tone go off. (Again, this isn't verbatim, because I had already closed the mission-completion screen to look at my inbox. unfortunately you cant get that back, so I couldn't grab a screen shot - darn it!)
The location is again over 300LY from my current position. As much as I love a "mysterious" story line, that's distant for me and for the game-play ambitions that I have at the moment, so I doubt that I'll be cruising out there.
I'm allied with 3 factions in the Quator system:
Alliance Rapid-Reaction Corps,
Independent Leesti for Equality, and
Bruthanvan Co.
In case the image isn't legible, the location is
Moraikda 1 in the so-named system. I believe that the coordinates are legible. My trade rank may look like it just changed, but I earned the promotion to that rank about 30 jumps before (that's quite a number of combat forays for the CG that was ongoing at the time, missions, etc.).
Hope this is a little helpful...
