So there I was just dropping of some Robigo runs when all of the sudden......

Regarding re-fuel while smuggling. Seems that there are some systems that don't spawn pirates or security, I just make sure to fully refuel in those, and then have enough fuel capacity to make the rest of the jumps quickly. Has kept me mostly out of trouble so far

Edit, second tip - don't fill up full of cargo, but leave maybe 5 tonnes empty. Then manually set the jump range to full cargo range. This significantly reduces fuel consumption compared to jumping near max range for the whole journey.

Edit 2: Congrats on making Elite!

I think Trade is the hardest one to get, what's your next target going to be?

The salt content of this river you're cryin' me is too damn high.

Have you posted in the ED forum thinking you were the Eve forums?

Yup, people getting elite trader in a weekend of effort now, so ridiculous.

Not quite as ridiculous as folks who get upset over someone else's achievements.

The problem isn't how they are doing it, it's that you don't think it's the correct way. That's the very definition of a personal problem.

Please, hold off on the ludicrous explanations. I'm sure you can offer multitudes of them. Point is, it's a part of the game, and anyone making money off of it is happy with it. It's just the stubborn folk who scoff at what they consider to be impropriety of the methods that are taking issue.

Seems a bit of an extreme and puritanical take to have for a video game.

Nerf Robigo.

Actually one of my latest systems scans indicated a large NERF asteroid in orbit of the main ring planet. All we have to do is mine it and deliver Nerf Footballs and Nerf Guns back to civilized space. At great profit, of course.

BTW. Congrats OP! Job well done. I hope to pass you at the Robigo Rum Bar some evening.

Now do what I did and get yourself straight to founders World

I have everything based there now. It is such a lovely and handy place to be able to access

Grats!

I am a KS Backer so I've been there a few times. Jameson Memorial is a nice place and it's really nice to have somewhere to go that has literally everything you can buy, ship wise.

I am one of the "just play the game" types that doesn't have a set target or goal to reach. I don't go out with the intention of grinding to reach the next level of whatever. I only came to Robigo last week to see what all the hubbub was about and stuck around for the quick credits.

I am a ship collector though and have been thinking of trying out the Corvette but I'm not going to lose my mind or any sleep over it if I don't have one tomorrow or even next month. It might look nice parked next to my other dozen or so ships though.

Maybe I really do have targets then?

I'm in! Name the system.

I have never tried mining but I could rig my Cutter for mining I guess. It would hold lots and lots of nerf footballs and such!
