Update

For the past weeks, the dust has been settling in Period Basis, and us Tortugans have been consolidating our position here. We have been running raids and sieges into Delve, notably C3N which fell to the Coalition. However, for the most part, there has been a lot of carebearing going on. We won't be getting any new contracts till after the Alliance Championships in 2 weeks, so things (and this log) have been very quiet.

Sure, there are nightly raids going on, but they aren't guaranteed to yield fights and are sometimes too late in the night for me to participate.

However, recently, Stain Empire have been sending in raiding parties of highly organised HACs and Recons (for the most part). Not many losses on either side, but it's one to watch.


BoB

As for Band of Brothers, they are on the ropes, but far from out. Only recently, they downed an RA Titan belonging to Oort, in NOL-M9 (BoB's home system). It was Oort's personally owned ship... I can only dream of such riches or ability. One can work studiously towards the latter, but not necessarily the former.

There are rumours of Molle handing over the reins to another for the time being. I can only imagine how much time it must consume running an alliance the size of BoB!

I can't see BoB dying any time soon, nothing has changed since my last entry. They are getting the fights they want, in their home system, and defenders always have the advantage in Eve due to the fleet/ lag issues.


Mysterious stellar object

It appeared a couple of months ago, then people forgot about it, then it's back on people's minds. Yes, it's the bright star in the universe. Able to be seen from every system, it has got people wildly speculating on what it actually is. Notable astronomers gathered in Aporulie (Essence region), to discuss it.

University of Caille Professor Kral Sangan, the chair and first speaker at the conference, outlined the nature of the problem. 'We have no idea what it is,' he said, 'we have had a much easier time determining what it is not. The true nature of the phenomenon is truly baffling.'

They say it is definitely not a supernova, as it is emitting radiation across all spectrums, something a nova would not do. It could be a white hole, the opposite of a black hole.

Some wilder theories have it as being the reappearance of the Jove, some have it as being a portal to another universe, some see it as an omen of doom, but most are just perplexed. At the moment, the implacable star-like object is giving nothing away, keeping it's secret to itself.
