Is space big or what?! I never would have known just how vast it was if I were to guess on my own! Anyway, I would like to thank Monsieur Rolland for giving me a proper introduction to everything and showing me around those first few days. It really made a difference, and I appreciate it. I would not be a Membre without his help!
Uh, anyway, I had quite the exciting day here recently out in Tau 23. It was quiet enough at first, even with the druggies hanging in the background, but I didn't pay them much mind as it didn't seem prudent to get into anything with 'em at the time. I did find a curious IMG subgroup with the tag (SolarR flying about, so I decided to talk with them. Odd group, those guys. They claimed a cruiser was a research ship, and they seemed in a right hurry to get to their destination! I followed them into Kyushu, but I kinda lost 'em in a gas cloud that had an anomaly in it. Not knowing where it dumped out, I headed back to Java Station. Perhaps others can make use of it though?
That's not the exciting part, though! So, I was sitting there, when what should pop out of Tau 37 but a drug runner! I was definitely all about stopping the vessel, when another appeared as well! I was forced to make on which vessel to halt as I had no backup, so I went with the easiest target, which happened to be the first. I even made the claim to the IMG board, and they verified my kill! Man, what a thrill! Still, one of them got away, so I'll have to be extra careful in case I spot him again. I'll attach my claim and the info on the one that got away.
