Are you delivering vouchers through the Administrative Contact and not Interstellar Factors?
Not sure if that's an issue, but you never know.
EDIT: One more thing: forget Inara for a moment. What does the in-game CG panel say for your contribution?

Just noticed that the sister CG ended, but this one hasn't. And only now I see that it says "maintain security in system", not "protect deliveries", unlike other CGs with sister CGs that end when the other does. So it won't end prematurely, I assume?
The last time a delivery CG was completed(also related to Azimuth iirc), the bounty hunting portion kept running until Thursday.
Fairly safe bet this one probably will too.
you can plug whatever big immersion thing but the only things will happen what FD allow because its their world.
None that I'd know of - create your own with a good title, but don't get your hopes up too much. There isn't very much overlap between timezones, forum users and players. It's usually easier to just drop into one of the obvious harvest areas1 in Open and send a wing request to anyone who's there. Worked for me in three of five sorties in the last couple of days (and would have worked more often if I hadn't left the wing when going back to the station - my poor little Mamba doesn't carry the same amount of shielding as a Corvette).

Hmmm Inara is listing the Top 25% range as 73m to 121m at the moment. I'm sitting at 90m, I wonder if need to do some more bounty hunting 'just to be sure'? I should be fine right?
Yes you do need to do more as you are less than halfway up that range.
Now that guarantees that it won’t be fine.
Last time I thought I’d be ‘fine’ in a percentile of a CG for a reward, I ended up being about a million credits short toward the end of it.
Don’t leave it to chance. Even if it’s a module you can just buy afterward, probably(this one might/probably will end up as a tech broker purchase like other pre-engineered AX weapons).
At the rate it's been increasing (about 10m/day), Top 25% should hit 90m tomorrow afternoon, so yes, you need to do at least 20m more just to be safe.
I've got 85 millions in a single session (afternoon/evening) , solo, in a krait mk2 with slf, 3x large overcharged MC and 2x longrange rails
With a better ship i could had done better (or in a wing)
So, yea - it's doable
Most probably the top ten are also winged, cause the numbers are suspiciously close
Edit:
Those being said, it seems that i'm about to fall of the top25% bracket :/
I'll have to get back to it this evening.
The obvious tactics are:
- wing up
- use beam Corvettes (although I was winged up once with a Krait Mk.II who used triple pre-engineered Guardian Plasmas. He was able to hit and usually one-shot any of the small fry)
- have experience in when to reset the instance to get juicier targets
- pre-stack bounties depending on any hunch you might have about future CGs (it's areasonable bet that any system the Musashi is in might be involved in Thargoid related CGs)
I sure hope so - I ended up in the top 50% of the hauling CG (after putting in another couple of loads of Rum on Monday evening), and I am (currently...) in the top 50% of the BH CG (but with a small margin only), and I sure hope to get the guns from both CGs.
Was the same with previous CGs (even the competing ones): in best freelance mercenary tradition, you make your cut on both sides of the fence and then get paid by both sides.
