Have any of you guys/gals ever seen this where your static wormhole goes to System A and System's A static goes to your system? Well yesterday I have had the nice pleasure of having that happen just wondering if that has happend to anyone else?

Seen it happen a few times yes, nice for capital escalations in farm, even nicer if you can utilize it for pvp.

Well I can say that was the first for me, lol. Normally when I open the whole I have exhale, talcon or someone on the other side ready to kill me..

Loops can and do occur every once in awhile. Whether it be your home connecting to static and their static connecting to you, or a loop of 4 wormholes that eventually loops back to your home, it's still always fun to see it happen.

WH loops are a wonderful miraculous thing and you should reward the pilot(s) who scan them out.

We once had a loop that went 8 jumps through wormholes then 2 through 0.0 then back to our home system. So when the guys halfway down the chain collapsed a connection we just reversed our bookmarks and went the other way around to pew them.

Rewarded loop scanner with a faction BS of his choice.

He chose Rattlesnake...

Yeah happened before lol.

We had like, maybe a 20 WH chain and the very end of the chain took us back home hehe, was pretty good as we could collapse the static and essentially get 2 chains. Good for roamage.

I actually have a medal for finding one of them - not because of actually finding it, but for being right about finding it*.


*There were arguments over whether I'd messed up book marks, so the bet was made on a medal whether I was right or not.

I wonder if there's a WH diagram at CCP that lets then see all the current connections at any given time?

Yes, happened to us lately, we had a static that went through a chain of 3 WHs back into our home WH :)

And an even funnier one, we were sieging a POS and the assault fleet stayed in the system after the chain to it closed, but we managed to have that very system as our static the next day :)

Such a magical experience, to have a wormhole loop. For all who experience this, call in sick to work, buy 10 cans of red bull, and carebear like you never have before!

I've seen a couple pop up as well, one involving a C1 and 2 adjacent HS systems, as well as one involving IIRC a pair of C4s and a C5? (or was it a C4 and a pair of C5s)
