Not difficult.
Keep cargo hatch closed for a couple of asteroids, shoot the fragments and open it only after removing the types from the list. Repeat as needed.

It (likely) won't count for the CG if you sell and buy at FC as it is no longer 'mined'.
You must used the work-around discussed previously to keep trying to 'Transfer' to FC and 'Transfer' to Ship (keep trying loads smaller than 200T - it does work eventually).
I think even that will not work. Transferred cargo loses the "mined" tag, as far as I know. I might be wrong.
Transferred goods will invalidate it for BGS & merits, last I checked.
I assumed it was obvious. It has nothing to do with NPC-story loyalty. Players just pick the winning side.
When the community event first went live, the sides were equal. As folks mined and turned in, one side started to eek ahead. When more players joined the event later (like me), they look at which side is doing better, and pick that, as the winning side will get more. So innately, why would anyone joing days into it pick the side that is losing? This tendency causes a lop-sided Winters effect as more folks join the now favored side. And now you can see the totals are well in support of Winters.
It's not that there's "more Winters" lovers in the game lol... folks just want to pick the obvious race winner so they can too win.
Moral of the Story: never commit to a community event when it first starts.

Glory Hunters - exactly like when I went to Africa in '90's, no one supported Chelski or Man City there, they were either Liverpool or Man Utd and maybe a few Arsenal (until more recently).

I was still in the top 25%, as of last night. Where in heck are all the carriers that are going to bury me?
The other football. Yeah, when we lost the Rams, many had to choose between Chicago and KC.
I also expect lots of carriers full of rocks to unload at the last moment.
At least, there does not seem to be any lockdown brewing, although the security of the system sure is low...
I have a feeling they already dumped all their load before the 6th tier was added.
Negative. Trading (ie buy/ sell) will change the flag, as it should. Store and retrieve from a carrier, however, works just fine. As it does for BGS and merits.
It's the same reason stolen (ie pirated) mined cargo can also be handed in to the CG.
Likely people dumped shortly before the CG was extended. It'll happen again as we get closer to the weekly tick, given that will also end the CG.
Thought it would not count to use plat horded in FC cargo and offload it all at once... that transferring it to FC changes the status. Needs to be in a "mined" status?
tell me you havent read the thread without telling me you havent read the thread
Wow, I'm mildly curious to whisper, "... I haven't read the thread" just to see what happens next lol.
You're referring to this I assume, "Trading (ie buy/ sell) will change the flag, as it should. Store and retrieve from a carrier, however, works just fine."
Which I did read before, but only remembered part of that apparently, which was why I asked just now asked about it. My fault for not re-reading all pages of this thread before asking a silly question, or having a lapse in selective memory...
Thanks for the reminder (instead of just saying yes, FC transfers (not using market screen) will work).
literally on this very same page you have post from me linking to the empirical proof of transfered cargo being viable for the cg.
you want me to spoonfeed you and wipe your behind as well? cmon dude...
Kind Sir or Madam, I regret to inform you your prior understanding was flawed. Storing (or retrieving) a commodity via Carrier transfer does not change the origin of the commodity. Only a transaction, such as sell or buy, can affect the origin of the commodity.
The good thing is, knowledge is power and you can, therefore, as a potential carrier owner, now leverage that for future benefit. Enjoy.
