Just wondering if anyone has ever *beat* that. WH was on the verge of collapse before the 1st pass from multiple battleship jumps. In I go with HIC to finish it off, and it just would not die! it wanted to LIVE! And yes I remembered to activate the 100MN every return trip.

Crazy.

Gotta love wormholes

Very crazy. Had a Cheetah collapse a seemingly fresh WH yesterday.

Assuming you were turning on your AB on the return, and you were a minimum of 65 million mass you passed 325 mass through the hole (not including your bubble on trips).

The maximum amount of mass that can be remaining on a 3 bil hole is 330 million mass (3.3 bil - (3.3 bil * .90). Must have been annoying to know that you could have just run another battleship prop on both ways :p

Not un-heard of. Variance of the mass for a wh can be as much as 20% from what I've seen, not counting the rare and odd occurrence of someone collapsing their hole with a cheetah ;)

Once when we were a fresh corp starting out, a few of us were in another corporation's home system. We camped their static so that they couldn't bring a pilot in an Onyx back. The Onyx pilot safed up, ejected out of the Onyx, and came through in a pod so that he could reship into something ranged to drive us off the wormhole (there were only 2-3 of us). After he had done so with a sniper-fit BC or whatever, he ran back through the wormhole to get his Onyx.

The wormhole collapsed on his pod.

The best part? We had been in contact with another corp yet another system over, and they had scanned down and blown up his Onyx before he'd returned for it.

One of the funnier wormhole stories I've been a part of.

As Svodola Darkfury said this is possible within the mechanics we know about.

Collapsing wormholes is a maths question its not magic or something.

An old bitter-vet in my corp always jokes that some people collapse by rolling a box of chicken bones and then depending how the bones land determines how they collapse, makes me lol for reels.

i jumped hics dozens of times at Verge Of Collapse. they keep shooting it and havent collapsed so far.....i will succeed one day though!

and i suppose in a c3 with a 5b wh VoC would be 500m. so that would mean 10 jumps. with the 10% deviation....

crit hole can be 270-330mil kg left.
100mn HIC is 65mil odd.
falls within the limits *shrug*
