Wormholes

You already have a short range tractor beam.

confirmed all his ships are named obvious

Wow the Eve forum community has to be the most whiney, bitchy, dissatisfied flailing panzies I've ever seen. You all must go through so much tissue on a regular basis.
I read these posts in a wetsuit to not get drenched by the ocean of tears.

I intend to penetrate said wetsuit.

I'm waiting for an ISD to show up soon...

As a returning WH'er who recently(read: post-odyssey) did a few relic/data sites in a C3, I can't be arsed about the 'efficiency' or the isk/hour factor of running said sites. I just like playing that damn mini-game.

I can understand that for people not hacking the cans, it would be insanely boring. I'm going to second the idea quoted below. It should be implemented, no way should all the other people who are required to effectively gather all the loot cans have to sit on their hands while the hacker (me) gets all the fun.

If they just reduce the amount of cans per site and increase the amount of loot proportionately there would be no problem. Say no more than 5 cans.

From experience form C2 wormwhole data and relics sites I'd summeries that main loot is what remains after doing the pew pew. I mean that stuff you take out of sleepers cold burned up tentacles via your salvaging ship and not that 99% random crap from the containers. Last number I remember from yesterdays relic site:

28,1 mio ISK from looting and salvaging wracks.
2,4 mio ISK from analyzing and looting 8* containers as 2 persons.

I felt more rewarded for killing that (relatively) hard wave of 2 battleships than for MWDing after all that containers, especially since grapping them and clicking your scanner is something really stressfull... at least more than watching 2 armor bars and waiting for either switching target or warp out while watching the scanner.

So I want to add the argument that the risk + time vs. reward opening these containers seem to be most of the time not in best balance. Though the site itself is profitable as whole. But I could imagine just leaving these containers decay and move to the next site will increase the ISK/time. And I kind of thought the sleepers are meant to force you to bring some pew pew power in the site instead of these guards being the "main dish" themselves. :) I kind of feel trolled by the sleepers. :D

*: +/- 2... I never actually counted them. :)

/facepalm... how? it takes me on average 15-30 seconds to clear one of the minigames and only two people to pick up all the cans (if you want the junk to) or if i scan it i can pass on the junk and get all the good loot, so lets say 30 sec per can to hack, 30 sec to loot the minis (that part is total BS btw, we passed the minigame give me the damn loot) and travel time between hacks is dependent on distance (changes every site) and your max speed, lets say it takes two min to get between hacks and there is fifteen cans, that is still less than one hour to do a large site.
oh and i forgot to mention im not even close to all lvl 5 skills....

Since you already necroed, I'll add my 2 cents... it seems data sites either got easier, or people got better at this. I average around 30 cans hacked per hour, so it would take two proficient hackers less than 15 mins to clear a huge site. I often finish before the can pickers approach the container, so I don't really have an issue with it. The spawn containers are annoying though, that's the worst mechanic ever, and the only co-operation it promotes is dual boxing.

I'd rather see a nerf to the economics of exploration than the economics of wormhole space.
