So I go about closing my 3bil mass hole today. Start with the Tempests, make 5 round trips before I see the finish line "Verge of collapse"

SO I do what any responsible wormholer does and I jump in the double bubble HIC. I know that the max mass of the hole now is 300mil, and that the max mass of the hole with the previous jumps is 3.3bil with deviation.

HIC in at less than 1mil, HIC out at 65mil.

4 round trips later... I am staring at the angry face of BOB. That is 264mil if you folks from California are reading this.

OK, I pray a prayer of forgiveness and jump one more time... and back one more time...

BOB laughs at me. I cleared 330mil on a hole that not only was critical, but had gone over its mass deviancy.

How about you?


TL;DR = BOB Hates Maths

CCP Quant: Of all those who logon in Eve, 1.5% do Incursions, 13.8% PVP and 19.2% run Missions while 22.4% mine.

40.7% Join a fleet. The idea that Eve is a PVP game is false, the social fabric is in Missions and Mining.

The most important part of this quoted definition is:


"ish"

I'm right behind you

Were you scouting with caps and battleships again?
