EVE General Discussion

I remember reading a story in EVE magazine about 2007. It was about a player who took a covert ops ship and ran around the most dank and dark perimeters in EVE to just... observe. This fellow took pictures of construction sites for titans and all kinds of interesting stuff that is rarely seen by most of us. I thought that was a wonderful concept. Now I'm no stranger to null sec myself, but its been a long time since I was in a holder alliance. I took an experienced alt and put together a nice little cov ops frigate.
It was like a dart board. I just pointed to some godawful extreme depth of null on the absolute fringes of the EVE universe and decided to see if I could get there intact. I already adjusted myself to the notion that I might be vaporized at some point, but there is nothing like an adventure with risk. I also wanted to see if my evasive skills were up to snuff. Needless to say, I had no weapons, but considerable speed and stealth to work with. The chosen destination was: MVUO-F . I actually got there intact. The folks running that area are a Russian Alliance. The most aggressive behavior I was subjected to was in low sec, of course. Those people down there are so edgy and full of themselves. When I got well into null, it was as though folks didn't give a thought to my presence, but I'm sure they gave me some scrutiny. There were a few warp bubbles to contend with, but I managed to avoid them. I did see some newer and more interesting anchored objects and stations. The whole experience was fun and challenging. Let's see if I can get back to hi-sec again. In a few days, I'll try another godawful destination.

nice work OP! post again when u go!

Adventure Time. C'mon grab your friends, we'll go to very distant lands. With Decoy the ISD and Lyk the badposter, the fun will never end, it's Adventure Time!

I did something similar to this once. I flew my cov frig to the edge of null to the closest point to Jove space to observe Caroline's Star (During the early days). I took lots if pictures and had so much fun doing so. My Alliance were pretty thrilled with the pictures too. I remember I checked D-scan more often in sov and was so happy and again terrified when I saw several Ragnaroks and other Supercarriers on d-scan. It was a wonderful adventure!

Where is the real Jerry T Pepridge, please?

What I really liked about this was how simple and boring......yet leading to a great adventure.

My advice: don't post pictures, just do it, and comment your observations, more importantly: questions - which leads to other adventures.

Try to find Thera. That can be a fun one if you don't cheat!

Sure thing!
Though I am currently working as volunteer in Africa. But I'll be home somewhere in mid December, so I'll send a link then if you're still interested :)

The same kind of post I have seen few times here. Dont forget to show your passport on the next gate in null. But do it quick.

So here I am, kids. 1-SMEB, Taylor Swift Empire. Jeezus Wept. You can't make this stuff up. Taylor Swift Empire. On the edge of null. Going into low-sec where I expect things will get obnoxious. It's all good. Got a destination in mind which I will share if I get there.

Best wishes.
