so, whats going on here guys?

0.0 and the gank swarms aren't fun. Ok I hear that. Prety much why I left. So F13 is hanging in low sec doing economic type stuff? I could gronk on that but was unluckly finding the right zone to do it in. Well perhaps.

We're based out of Akora right now, for the most part.

We haven't really been playing a whole lot, but I'd like to define a dedicated day each week for us to get online and do something together (either pvp gang, or mining, or manufacturing runs, something..).

I might pop down once I have a cruiser to... cruise around in. Playing EVE with people to talk to is always better than playing it solo!

I, myself, am based in Aakari/Korama right now.  I have been running L1 missions for RSS lately in order to reduce the tax on my refining... also I just wanted a break from ice mining; money++, sanity--.  I will be doing this for the forseeable future, either missions or ice, until such time as Ye Olde Mackinawe is called upon for a corp mining op.  I also do parades, like the fire dept.

Probably five or six more days until I can fly the Mac!  Whee!

Mission running and mining aren't as incompatible as you might think. There are some level 2 and 3 missions that spawn big juicy omber asteroids in deadspace for you. If you mine them before turning in the mission it can add some serious money to the mission reward. Some of the guys in my corp let those missions respawn every day just so they can mine the omber.

I think this is probably why isogen prices have dropped from 120 a year or so ago to less than a 100. Now if they'd only do the same for nocxium I'd be a very happy carebear ship builder.

I think iso is down because there are more players, and therefore more empire miners.  I'd also guess that more than one industrial corp is fleeing a warzone right now.  There isn't any shortage of isotopes either (just look in The Forge), but I'm vaguely hopeful that war will cause a surge in demand.  I think that prices are going to drop over time due to population increase, since those people aren't going to be getting into the shipbuilding or POS games for quite a while and will pad the ranks of the suppliers before the consumers.
