The Deep Space Support Array (DSSA) | A FleetComm Initiative

Pick two integers between 1 and 10. Use Orvidius's ship name generator: the first integer is how many times you generate a list, the second is which you'd pick from the output.
Of course, you might end up with something like "DSSA Sexy Elephant" or "DSSA Scientific Science". (Actual results for me.) But hey, if you did, it's not your fault.

I got ...

DSSA "DIMENSIONALLY WORST CASE"

or...

DSSA "HORIZON'S CARRION"

:unsure:
 
Hi CMDRs,

I would like to volunteer a Fleet Carrier to the only quadripoint in the game, cartographed by me last October (The four courners monument) exactly on the crossing of
Rykers hope / Izanami / Newtons Vault / Arcadian Stream
to offer all pilots who want to travel beyond SagA some place to rest, repair and drink (Hutton Mugs NOT provided)
Fleet carrier name: FOUR CORNERS MONUMENT
Platform: PC
Distance from Sol: 40057 ly
Exact location: PLOEA AUSCS ZA-A c16 (officially this puts it into Rykers hope region, but being exactly on the quadripoint you can count it into ANY of the four regions stated above)

Fly safe!

I volunteer. CMDR Gurrenhert, DSSA Nova Blues, planning on the southern arm of the Arcadian Stream, near the Eord Prau nebula. I see that region is still below the 3-FC cutoff, but I can be flexible in destination, so let me know if there are collisions or concerns.

Creating player-driven bastions in far reaches was my first hope for FC's on hearing about them. Appreciative of the opportunity to contribute.
 
I´ve just heard of this project a few moments ago and thought of participating.I don´t have a carrier yet, however preperations are already on the way for almost three weeks. It´s a bit late right now and I´ll have to think about this in detail tomorrow. But I wanted to claim it right away:
I VOLUNTEER, CMDR Mizumono, PC, Acheron. I think "DSSA Charon's Ferry" would fit there perfectly.
 
I've filled in the form, would love to take part and offer up the pride and joy of the Independence Separatist Fleet the [ISF] PEACEBRINGER (renaming available). We will happily send a FC to the Acheron region to aid all commanders in their travels in the farthest reaches of the galaxy.

Fly safe, CMDR Roe Laren

For those just joining us, the following regions are AT CAPACITY (3 carriers) and you should not volunteer your carrier for them:

  • Ryker's Hope
  • Odin's Hold
  • Arcadian Steam
  • Norma Expanse
  • Trojan Belt
  • Hawking's Gap
  • Archeron
  • Vulcan's Gate
  • The Abyss

Additionally we're not taking submissions for the following areas due to existing plans or existing bases/outposts:

  • Inner Scutum-Centaurus Arm
  • Inner Orion Spur
  • Formorian Frontier
  • Elysian Shore
  • Sanguineous Rim
 
Any possibility of adding suggestions to this process to carry a few mining goodies and park in systems with appropriate ice rings?

This way you can suggest to explorers utilizing the services to obtain and deliver (by selling to the carrier market) Tritium. This way the carrier owner may be able to recoup some of the fuel needed to get home at the end of its service. Even an explorer who has no mining equipment may be able to do so by purchasing said equipment if desired, assuming its still in stock.

Of course this stock may eventually run out, but it may also encourage future explorers to bring along a mining laser and small refinery if they can spare it in the build.

As of now I am planning on entirely dedicating my alt account to this so I can permanently park the commander out there with the carrier, I just need to work out the logistics of my life - the time to grind some more coin and also fly it out.
 
I have not found in a topic yet: was it discussed, that each cmdr, who goes with the FC, could store in FC up to thirty T9s full of tritium, instead of mining all the way? (Please correct me if I’m wrong, I’m not sure, how many ships each commander can take in FC with). These T9s could be then sold back (or abandoned).
Are there other contras in view, alongside of money splash?

If you spend that 30 accounts for that T9s I'll take them ;)
You can store your ship but not with cargo :)

Well, the carriers are not supposed to go home, at all. We aim to keep them there, permanently. They should only go out of service if the owner could not keep supporting the carrier anymore, even with help from the community.

Yes, as there is a certain appeal to do deep space mining operations with some people, which is why I decided to launch mine form the bubble instead of Colonia, even though it's 3 times the distance now.
