I haw a question.
I did the weak 2 pictures had the canal window open as per the rule and its visible.
4. Pilots must be a member of the “Sanctuary Image Contest” channel and have it open and visible for the screenshot.
But i haven't the MOTD visible.
do i need to take the entire second weak photos again with the MOTD visible or do these count withe the channel opened and visible?

Forgive me for being dense, but is the Vapor Sea visible from many different regions? If so how will I know I have taken a picture of the correct nebula?

For those wandering about Eyjafjallajökull it's in wormhole J102834. Courtesy of a quick google search and the old forums.

Finding a single specific WH system seems pretty much impossible if you want to do this on your own, even if you were really good at finding C6s, there are still more than 100 of those.

But I don't really see the problem about getting a pic of an incursion mom. It's not like in the early days of incursions when the mom was killed as soon as it spawned. Nowadays they are kept around for days, so entering a site and taking a screenshot before the rats kill you shouldn't be too hard.

Great, now go post it here.

I don't know what you took a picture of, but the Vapor Sea nebula is visible from several regions.

How did you get that idea? The task is to make a screenshot of "Vapor Sea", it doesn't say Stain anywhere. Vapor Sea is in the empty space between several regions, so at the very least all those directly bordering regions should be equally valid.

The pic looks like it's the right one to me, the easiest way to make sure is to press F11 in space and check if you're looking in the right direction. You could also use the new visible autopilot route in space feature.

Is it just me, or were there more places to visit in Amarr/Caldari highsec than Gallente/Minmatar ?

Being in the Gallente militia, Amarr and Caldari highsec sites had some complications due to faction police.

Week one
This was just a matter of setting a waypoint to each site, then flying to them. But two sites stood out for me:
- Jita Monument. Since I had never visited this before, and my overview was full, it took me a few passes of the 4-4 station before I could find the monument. Then I simply bookmarked it and warped directly at it.
- Choonka's Diner. The only time the faction police managed to shoot me was at this one.

Week two
- Politely answering a question in Help channel of any language. People who aren't paying attention might wonder why the help channel suddenly became helpful.
- Mini containers scattering in a data or relic site. My first attempt at hacking, which is a fun little minigame. Though I don't like the spew.
- Prime Arkonor. I never realized how dead parts of nullsec are until this one. I literally had to fly 10 jumps into null to find an Arkonor site. Then I lost my ship to the rats at the site. 10 jumps back in my pod. Then I realized I forgot to show the chat channel, meaning 10 more jumps. And the loss of another ship to the rates at the ore site. After confirming that my picture met the rules, I self-destructed my pod rather than fly back.

Week three
- EVE Gate and Monolith. What Eve sightseeing trip would be complete without them ?
Also, I probed out the Dead End system on a lark. There were 3 Dead End wormholes
- Wolf-Rayet Star. After the number of wormholes I needed to scan down to find the right system on the other side, I've got to say that I felt like I was fighting against the interface to position the probe formation. I'd hate to see how it was when I had to position each probe individually.
- Your pod on fire. It took me a while to find a corpmate willing to help with this one.
- Steve. I never realized there were so many different ways one can place bubbles. From a gate covered in so many that I had to slowboat 100km through them to reach the gate*. Another gate had a large bubble on it, with a small bubble set to catch anyone warping directly from gate to gate and a can to decloak anyone it caught. A bubble on the planet I warped to to check the gate. A bubble sitting on Steve's front end, filled with abandoned drones, which seemed to be an attempt to get people to die to the NPCs that were camping the wreck.
Also, there was a Caldari militia pilot sitting one jump from Steve. He was there when I warped through on the way to Steve. He was still there when I went back through a few minutes later. Why was a cal mil pilot sitting, apparently AFK, in a nullsec system that far south ?

*Good thing I used a cov-ops. The one thing I really feared in it was jumping into a bubble, which never happened. All the bubbles that covered a gate were on the side I warped to, not the side where they would catch me. Naturally after hitting the gate covered in bubble-wrap, I put it on my avoid list for the trip back.

The "steve" picture is for sure quite hard to get ;)

Those guys in catch seem to have a liking for bubbles, and they also seem to guard their territory quite fiercly.



Wonder how hard the tenths one that was listed earlier in this thread here may have been. Getting a Sansha Mothership screenshotted in an incursion may actually be a lot easier than flying through tons of gate camps to steve ;)

Are you freaking kidding me now that I have to redo entire week 1 and 2 cause I dont have MOTD visibile in channel...

Is it really that necessary?
