We now have completly stable fuel reserves at the POS for the first time since it's, erm, errection. We've also got so much stuff back in empire to sell now that by the end of the weekend the corp wallet should be somewhere around 700 mil.
So, in celebration of this fact, Spod mining op thursday!

Damn this makes me happy. We shifted 200,000m3 of stuff worth nearly 800,000,000 ISK. That's the equivalent of 46 Crane loads back and forth to Marginis and the POS and thus saved my sanity.
Only downside is that we've now got around 100k m3 of stuff to shift to Jita over the next few days, so mining op notwithstanding it's gonna take all hands on deck. Especially since I intend to help out in my bustard and will need a small escort (EW/scouts) to avoid WT.
But, we stand to make around 650mill by the end of the week. Which is nice. Piccies to follow tomorrow.
A very happy Friz bids you all g'night.

Should be up for some hardcore ice mining tonight (assuming the missus doesnt throw a spanner in the works) so I have my mic turned around ready for an outing onto Vent...

Only bad thing is that I spent 14.5mill on a cyno skill I then didn't need. That's kinda annoying.

Oops! How come you dont need it any more?

Yeah, kinda annoying that. I'm sure we can pool together to chuck you a bit since I know you're short on cash to set yourself up in Empire. And it was a purchase 'for the corp' so to speak.

I will happily send some your direction (Or if I might need the skill in future, buy it from you!)

We could also use it to scare off people like VIRII who may come hunting for us

(or perhaps use it to lure them in and kill them all!!)

Jebus. I know I undercut the market a little for a quick sell (maybe losing out on a potential 5 - 10 mill over all), but I didn't expect it all to sell that quick. Ferro went for 8600pu overnight, Haf at 2200pu (there was shit loads on the market at 2250 which I wanted to undercut). Next time I'll keep the prices higher.
Have 150mill

Yep, we're certainly seeing the isk role in after all our hard work. I'm keeping an emergency stock of 16800 Ferro in Oimmo in case we miss a haul one week and will bung the next lot of haf on the market this evening. Plus there's the mega to sell, and this week's contract of 117mill to collect.
Couple of things before everyone goes on a spending spree though:
1. The watershed still stands at 300mill (i.e. Do not fall below this line) and the current target is 1 bill.
2. We'll need in the region of 2.5 bill in total to expand our POS chain to the next stage.
3. A cap ship will cost us in the region of 1 bill. This is still in the very early planning stages so don't get too excited yet!
4. A freighter would cost about 1 bill. Same detail as the cap ship tho.
5. I intend to stock up another another month of fuel in Maspah (supplemented by ice mining). And not forgetting that the dysp is doubling in price from this weekend.
Final thing. Could I ask that any transactions from the corp wallet are annoted in the 'notes' section so we can audit the wallet properly (they show up if you hover the mouse over the entry in the Journal tab).
Ta!

Great to see it all coming together so well finally. Top work from yourself Friz... have you been able to get any sleep while doing this?!
Huzzah for realistic talks of Capital Ships!

Actually a freighter could become a Fw4ppers goal....

I haven't looked at the mineral requirements yet, narf, but we have a couple barge pilots up and coming that might be around for a bit....
Or is the 1 billion for the non-mineral needs. (At work and can't check atm...)
It'll take at least a couple months of training for me to fly one, (I think) Industrial 5 was 39 days before I started finishing off the perception learning skills. See if that and the advanced perception learning shorten it up much.
Actually, how many would be in favor of a .1% tax rate in 5punkers? Would add up quite a bit faster with the rats you lot get, and the missions and such.
Yet you don't even notice it in your wallet.

Thats a damn good plan actually! Even 0.5 or so would be ok with me

At .1% it'd only add up to 500isk for a 500k battleship, it'd take 2000 of them to make 1 mil isk, also I think we've already discussed this in the past and decided against it.
