I asked this a week ago but didn't get a response (which I hope is a sign that it isn't a problem) but could I get a response please.Question
Don't want the death of my trusty Tristan be in vain Blink


Yup that's fine.

You posted them in the entry threads too right? Not just in here?

To my anonymous customer: Thanks for buying my frozen corpses.
Also interesting to see that the same pack of corpses appear in different hangar screenshots.Lol

How do you know for certain that a star is a Wolf Rayet?

Check one of the many WH system databases or just look at the graphic effect, you can't really miss a WR if you look for it.

I am really disappointed to learn after completing all three groups that the rules were changed to require uncloaked ships. Why was there no notification of this change? A quick dev blog or game news bulletin would have been appreciated. I did not think I needed to keep checking the forum throughout the contest! I took my photographs with ship cloaked, or using the "look at" function to get better looking photos. Surely the Sanctuary appreciates artistry! I hope you will reconsider this as you award prizes.

Well, I just got done with all the pictures and submitted all 3 Tier albums to their specific threads. Definitely was one hell of a trip, a lot of jumps required to do this event contest.

I gotta say the most toughest picture to get was finding the Wolf-Rayet worm system. Took quite a few hours and a lot of scanning to finally get one.

The most dangerous picture to get was my own pod on fire. I mean come on, that's something no Capsuleer wants to see. Need to have an alt character or in my case, a very good trusted friend to get that picture. Special creds and many thanks to Kor Kilden.

As for the traveling into low, null and worm systems, that was no problem with a Nulli Cloaki Probi Loki.

Now about this :

Please note that because of difficulty concerns, we had to remove 1 of the final objectives, so there are only 9.

Nothing is too difficult for us Capsuleers, except maybe getting into Jove space. Any chance of letting us know what image you guys thought was too difficult for us?

Inquiring minds would like to know.

They already told us

Our three options for #10 were "The Sign" (which apparently no longer exists), the planet Eyjafjallajokull, or a Sansha Incursion Mothership.


Eyjafjallajokull is a planet in wormhole space. Think how long it would take you to find that.

Yeah, was reading the thread and saw the answer, came back here to edit my reply and see you've beat me to the punch.

Anyway, the Sign still exsists, it's in a cosmos mission.

I am pretty sure this rule has been in effect since the beginning. I remember reading it during week one and feeling a little anxious that I would be heading into nulsec and have to uncloak for pics.

Of course, I could be wrong.

This was one of the most fun events I have ever done in a game. Please continue doing similar stuff. I really enjoyed it. :D

This rule was not in effect from the very beginning, it was introduced during the first week. The devs already declared that the rule will not be enforced for the first week's set cause people had already started or even finished that one by the time the rule was added. But the rule is in effect for weeks 2 and 3.

I understand that is what CCP stated in posts in this thread.

But there was no notice in the Sanctuary channel MOTD nor in the posts that announced group 2 and 3. It would have been easy to add a "hey, we changed the rules on you!" note. I had no expectation that I needed to follow this thread, and I'll be angry if I am not eligible for the rewards after putting in many days this month to get all the photos.

I'm not even sure why the rule change was necessary. If they wanted more ships to get destroyed, I could just self-destruct a ship in Jita. As it was, I still lost a covops to a gate camp in null. Cloaking is not a free-pass.

I've scanned down and entered at least 100 worm holes and haven't found a Wolf-Rayet Star. Am I just unlucky or am I missing something? This is the last photo I need and I'm getting very frustrated.

The rest was fun, this is a grind.

Ouch.

All I can suggest is making sure you're using an out of game site to check the hole you're in (the good ones can pull your location from the in-game browser if you let them, making this very quick). I'm not sure if it's possible to check your hole type without them.

If you're already doing that, sorry about the bad luck. Wolf-Rayet systems make up over 6% of all wormhole systems, so you are very unlucky.

It may be that you've come across one or more and not realised. I know some sites with pictures of wolf-rayets have the sun next to them giving the mpression that it is 2 stars together.

I must have only gone through 20 or so wormholes and found a few but at first I was looking for a two star effect so missed a few I could have taken a screenshot of.

Also, about the whole uncloaked rule it was there from the day I started the competition which was on the first or second day.
