WTB torp-spewing domi, paying 2b ;) a friend of mine tipped me off about this blog. a great and very entertaining read! keep it going :)

A little less salvage but works for the harder sites you cannot solo cause your buds are not online. Just an issue at the end with the scramming sleepers. Apologies if this is already well known on the forums since I only go there occasionally. M.

And I'm well are that the sigs aren't on timers, I was just providing general statistical info on the sigs that have appeared in GM and the way in which their distribution changed after Apocrypha 1.1.

A sig that despawns can reappear in other wormhole systems. I recommend going into other w-space systems from your GM base. Also, about the spawning: Wormholes aren’t on individual respawn timers.

The aggressors were able to tank the damage when the guns were firing without human guidance, and switching (as they do) from one ship to the next. Mauve, I know Jim Bridger got lucky. The whole reason we scouted ahead to was to make sure there was nobody waiting on the wormhole -- but the other side was thinking a step ahead or got lucky themselves, I'm not sure which. In Greater Mars, I never found a system I couldn't solo in a Drake, though on the Radars and some of the harder anomalies I'd have to warp out several times and get a fast cap recharge from The Empress at her POS. I'm pretty sure that in any deeper w-space, I'd have to pick and choose encounters, upgrade my ship choice, or both. Or make Jim Bridger fly a Basilisk, which is going to take some fast talking and menacing threats. Everybody, thanks for your comments. I'm glad folks enjoyed hearing about this. Some responses:
