I'd like to help but I don't have a big ship worth taking to Colonia. Should I try to help someone else load out?

7K ly down, 15 to go! I'm scanning too much as I go, I know. It's too tempting.

BTW, I am definitely making my approach to Jacques in Solo Play. I wouldn't put it past people to camp at the station trying to pirate people's leaflets.

Siambretta, I also don't have anything significant to contribute, but that's not stopping me. 8-) (Of course, I was fixin' to make a similar trip already...)

You can just do it private, if only there was some PvE group... :D
I'll stay around Bluford for a few days then I'm off to Jaques

:D Yeah, Mobius is great, I'm glad it exists. BUT! When hauling goods 22k ly, I get very risk averse.

There is a type of person that would join Mobius just for the fun of blowing up people that want to be left alone. There is another type of person who would join Mobius just to sabotage our Colonia effort. These risks may be small, but they do exist, so I'd rather play it 100% safe.

Fleetcomm was initially called Kamzel, one of the founders of the Distant Worlds Expedition, the private group that really kicked off collaborative exploration. When the DWE was over a lot of CMDRs in it wanted to maintain the contact, for instance to make it easier to arrange other group exploration events. So, Kamzel got Frontier to move everyone in his private group over into a new group called Fleetcomm. Since most CMDRs going to Colonia happens to be explorers (surprise, surprise) most were already members of Fleetcomm when the CCN thing was created and instead of making everybody join yet another private group they decided to simply make Fleetcomm their preferred PvE focused group. CCN isn't an alternative to Fleetcomm, it's just a Colonia-focused evolution (Solo, PvE and PvP combined). With these new Colonia visas, it's very likely it will all evolve into something different again next year... :D

Andy Bulman is there a lot during afternoons evenings (game time) filling ships up. If you still have trouble finding someone to help you fill your ship up, get hold of him. :D
I'll probably be around there from tonight, as well. You can add me in game and check in with me if you see me online.

It's the other way around: I'm looking for people who'll take my papers!

I know. Andy has a Cutter that he fills up with travel guides. This allows us to get a much better flow with CMDR's going out. \o/
