I want to start collecting corpses.
I have no real reason, I just want to.

I would like to collect in bulk, as in thousands.
I currently find it very inefficient to wait around to find one at a time.

Any ideas on how I might improve my harvest?

Kill them...

Scoop them up.

I got a Corpse Box in my HQ Hanger with about 700 Corpses now.

or you can tell people you will by 1 for mil each.

Although I will never sell my collection.

The only way to buy by the thousands... is to buy from others that collect, but chances are they are not selling. I know I won't really unless ofc you were to pay me tons haha

Low-sec pipe systems are usually pretty good places to find them floating.

Are you sure Chribba your corpse would probably fetch billions Lol

You don't feel attached to your life do you? I mean if you want to come back we can always clone you. I swear we will do that too if it is your wish and we won't even mess with the cloning algorithms, pinky promise. Thats how you know I am telling the truth.

We need a corpse packing system like a fuelblock.

Ive been saying this for literally tens of hours.

Think the last of me sold for 1.2b and I don't really have any thought about making more of me...

Pick them up from gates and station undocks as you meander around, busy systems like Uedema and the trade hubs are usually quite good for corpse collection.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

There are two things we need.

1. The ability to dress up pretty corpses and pose them in our CQs.
2. The ability to manufacture and sell burgers. There are some ugly corpses, after all.

I do these before they are corpses.

Never thought of Chribba having such an "extraordinary" hobby ... just like me.
I grab every single stinking frozen corpse i come across. Busy low-sec and trade hubs are quite good places to enjoy this hobby. 1x Jita and back and you have 5-10, more or less, fresh corpses in your cargo.
The female corpses i like to dress like Barby and the male ones like Ken ...

People who collect corpses and do nothing with them are weird. You gotta get to know your corpse, experiment a little y'know?

And remember...............if you don't like the holes they already got, you can always drill new ones! Big smile

Just pod yourself tonnes of times, probably will make more ISK than that capital mining fleet of yours. Of course when people catch on to what you're doing you'll have to stop or the price will drop.

My first inspiration to farm some meat, gristle and bonewerks was when I read about the (in)famous Gallente artist Guy Bourdin.

"His first gig was doing hats for Vogue. He'd place dead flies or bees on the faces of the models, or, female head wears hat crushed between three skinned calves heads, tongues lolling.

He wanted but he couldn't paint. So he threw globs of revengeful hatred at his mobile subjects. He would systematically pull the phone cord out of the wall. He was never to be disturbed.

Disturbed. Never.

Everything and everyone died around him. One shoot focusing upon a women lying in bed was said to be a reconstruction of his estranged wife's death. Another picture has a women in a phone booth making some frantic call. Her hand is pressed whitely against the glass. Behind her and outside are two female bodies partially covered by the autumn leaves.

His dream, so he told his friends, was to do shoots in the morgue, with the stiffs as mannequins. "

I disagree, I am far from morbid having a sunny and sharing (true usually ammunition but its still sharing) disposition.

In my experience there is nothing like an artfully arranged tableau of your victi.....sorry, um, contributors to brighten your hanger deck and lift your spirits as you return home.
