A Time To Play

There's a time to write and a time to play.  One of these days I'll figure out how to do both.  I'm in playing mode now as I race to get my alt up to 5.0 standings with a Caldari corporation before Saturday.  I think I'll succeed as I'm now up to 4.59 after last night's session.  I might have gotten higher if I hadn't spent some time exchanging EVE parody lyrics with Rhavas on Twitter.  But as my goal for the night was 4.6, probably not much higher.

I know that some people don't like the training skills, but leaving the house yesterday with my standings at 3.85 and then getting home having them at 4.13 was nice.  No, I wasn't botting!  I finished learning Connections IV while I was at work.  Gotta love real time skill training.

One misconception about low sec is that people won't run low sec incursions.  Not true.  I saw people doing them in Domain when I was grinding SoE loyalty points and again this week in Metropolis.  When I logged in the incursion in my home constellation was gone.  Started on a Sunday, finished on Tuesday.  Not too bad.

Sometimes I really should look up how to guides.  I'm working on planetary interaction making nanite repair paste.  I'm pretty sure I screwed up, because when I look at my spreadsheet I see that moving P1 products around is actually cheaper than moving P2 products.  I need to fix that before Saturday too.

Finally, my ammunition business is doing okay.  I really do need to start mining again, but the standings grind is taking priority.  Still, I have almost 1 million pyerite so I'm still in good shape on that front.  Jump freighter service between Molden Heath and Jita can supply a region with a mass of goods, but us small-time local producers still have a place.  After successfully undocking from the station in Bosnea, I did send out a "Vote for Sugar Kyle" message in local.  Something tells me I was preaching to the converted though.
