To be fair, if I saw someone type what I did, I would have made exactly the same comment. + Show Spoiler + When making this post, I tried to differentiate (lololol) between d-istance (one "measurement" of r) and D-istance (the column on the overview that keeps spitting out r's). If you plop down a coordinate system somewhere in space, then when the overview spits out an r, you can mark it on the coordinate system. The easiest frame of reference to use would be your ship (since it's the viewport for making measurements) sitting at 0m/s (since having an accelerating frame in the problem just complicates the math). So using that frame, the overview gives you an r for a Drake. You move your camera around until you can see the Drake clearly (and track its current phi and theta, relative to your ship) and mark the current r on your coordinate system. Then you just keep doing it. Every time the overview spits out an r, you mark it down. Eventually you'll be able to derive every other number the overview gives since you're basically approximating r(t). You can, of course, use other frames and just convert between the measuring frame (your ship) and your coordinate frame etc. etc. blah blah blah :EFFORT:. Now obviously if someone sits you down at a desk and gives you an r or even gives you an overview printout of a bunch of r's, then you can't do shit - which is basically what you were referring to. | ||

At the beginning, it may take about ~10 hours for a plex during the free 51 days you get by signing up through us. About two months in as you start to get settled down comfortably it takes about 3-4 hours per month per account. If you decide to branch off into trading/exploration and get good at them, you will have far more than the necessary isk to buy GTCs ingame. | ||

Sard was saying someone should make the picture more accurate; have my tengu in it with my loki in the background skirmish linking etc. | ||

First time, I had no idea what to do - absent 10 days because I disliked the idea of logging in every 4 - 8 hours just to train a skill (didn't know I could quene more than two at a time then). Second time, I was told to go through the wormhole into the main PvP sector, only to find out that the salvaged stuff I had been looting off Kwark's mission were useless since I didn't have enough credits nor the ability to contract anyone to carry my stuff back to Jita..... D= Maybe when you guys have a lot to spare... Good luck! I always enjoy visiting this thread and reading of your great exploits! | ||

Michael had scouted out some random system that was unclaimed about 30-40j away from our home and decided to drop a Territory Claim Unit there for funzies. We held sov there for about 24 hours before ?Goonswarm came and dropped a bunch of supers on it. edit: regarding those other comments, fuck youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu lol | ||
