Took the Cutter to Sothis / Ceos this morning. Decided to try it this weekend, instead of the 'Conda. Jump range is about 75% of the Conda, but cargo space is double. ;)

Filled up with delivery missions with only 1 full cycle of each mission board (Sothis and Ceos). Ran my goodies back to the bubble (37 grueling jumps .... uggg, to the farthest drop off station). Only 7 stops, with a over half of them having 2-3 mission each. :)

Net income - $75,252,000 and a trade rank gain of 12% from one run. Now I'm only 30% from Elite in trade rank. Humm...... I may just have to hang around here for a while and finish that off! 8-)

Hmm tasty Credits, very nice payday. You may be closer than you think as was I, thought the Elite number was 1,011,828,840 but received my rank at 971,548,604. If it's broken don't tell anyone I'm not given it back :) too much work but fun and that's why I'm playing or tell myself :D

Thanks Nar Nar. I've heard it's around $1B in trade profit to hit Elite. If I had to do A-B-A runs to get there, I'd never make make it. But..... doing these long range hauls are kinda fun and VERY profitable! :D

Dawg did you blame Lori as well ??

If he ever sets foot in this country my wife will kill him......

Hehe.......

:D


Both of you started messing with your Gremlins long before I logged in, and long before I started.
If you cannot hold your liquor, might i suggest slowing down or switching to milk? :P
You both were obviously not drunk enough to repeatedly throw yourself off a mountain in a buggy for the entertainment of others, as Tor and I were. JAS is what we call that. Just Another Spectator.

And if your head hurts, that is YOUR problem. Mine is fine. :P


Oh... Dear... Lord...

Yes very profitable, I did the A-B-A run, mostly Thon and Clipper, have an inner ear disorder (screen movement) difficult staying focus combat is a 8itch.

They still have the figure listed at 1,011,828,840 Tarde Rank

You have to do the time and the grind.

That time has come again, the pull of the black is too strong and I'm off.

No destination in mind, just going to see what I find, and go where I fancy.
