I've heard the tales of it happening but never seen it first hand, today at 19:45 the excited call of "IT'S A LOOP, WE'VE GOT A LOOP " reverberated across TeamSpeak. So obviously just because of the novelty, I went home the other way.

By the way! What program do you guys use to track hole links? Because I've seen Hard Knock's maps before, and an easy way to do those...

Wish that happened more often. Could lead to some pretty hilarious scoooby doo style chases.

I've seen a couple of loops, never had a chance to use them in pvp though. Best loop ever was Banana > Static > Banana

The most we've had happen is the hole open three times into the same wormhole while rolling.

We had a loop once. Eve wspace didn't handle it so well unfortunately, so we didn't get to see it in all its mapped glory.

Yeah, Eve-Wspace is a bit...limited in that regard, I've seen a couple of loops though.

Shocked I can only imagine my initial confusion landing back at home through a loop. and my god. . all the bookmarks saying home. . it's almost evil.

Yep, when I was scanning C6z it was like...uh, we have two return holes what do I call them. Should we rename this to C6a? What do I call the 4 C5s I've found in here, do I start at C5c or C5z. We've got wormholes in here in both the static and primary chain folders, should we merge them? Should we just rename everything to be part of the static chain? So many questions.

say your in a c4 with c4 static. is it posible to open up into your own WH/? so you jump in the wh and exit still in ur system? as its random where the exit is and it has to be a c4 i guess there must be a chance of that happning?

Sry man, but you cannot open a wormhole into your system...

Rage roll more often. Happens about once a month for me. Seriously though, when you roll about 20 times a day, it happens more often than you think.

Reducing your holes to a quivering mess since 2009.

Its a sign from Bob that you should start shooting your own corp mates.

Here's a video of what happened to us one day.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=peNErgvpvCM

We opened our static C3, the C3 had a static C2, and that C2 was our home.
Basically just a direct loop because reasons.

Fun things is when you open up a new static, get trapped out and then 2 hole rolls later you open up to the previously wh where you got caught outside Big smile

Happened to me in the past when our guys used to live c2 w c3 static.

whats the best time to find stuff to go shoot? Twisted

My first week living in a wormhole, I found our static and our roaming linked to the same system one day. It was good for a laugh.

Edit: wait, maybe it was one of my corpmates...
I can't remember who exactly found it, but found it we did.
