Hi guys, new to the game. A couple of question for you:
- i've read some post (2010-2013) that say: "time remaps don't stack" (for time remap i mean the ones you get every year) Question: as things are right now (2015) it's still the same or now they can stack up?
- always in some post post on the forum i've read that you can receive new bonus remap in special events but i couldn't find an example. Question: can someone link me such an example? or explain what type of events?
- Custom Office: is worth constructing it for a one man corp? (i know that if attacked i won't be able to defend it) How often are they attacked? (low-sec speaking)
thanks in advance,
Soel |

No, regular remaps do not stack. They are either on cooldown or they aren't.
I can't remember bonus remaps being handed out beyond the two that you get on any new character. Did you maybe confuse remaps with free skill points?
In lowsec, you can just fly up to a customs office and start attacking it. You should not expect to kill it though; it is much more likely that the current owners scare you off or kill you before long. |

Probably not, at least financially. I am sure that you could find an out of the way place to remove an inactive corp's POCO and set up your own, but if it is so remote to be relatively safe, you won't make much at all in terms of tax to cover the 100M ISK or whatever per office. The amount you would save on tax doing PI on one or even a couple characters also would take forever to pay for the initial cost. Considering there are POCO's with a few percent or even less tax rates in lowsec, it isn't really worth it for the savings.
If you put it somewhere where you did make significant income in taxes, it is much more likely someone will come by and take it from you. But if you just want to mess around and the ISK isn't you main goal, then of course go for it.
What might be safer is to move into an empty C1 lowsec-static wormhole. They are not that desirable, so if you set up your POCOs there, you would have to **** someone off to commit the fleet and logistics necessary to take these from you. But you almost certainly would have no other users and you would need to do some serious (multi-account) PI farming to pay of that initial expense in a reasonable time. But WH PI is much better anyways. |

If I remember correctly, bonus remaps might have been a Christmas present one year.

You will get a new (regular) remap 360 days after using your current one. |

There are two types of remaps: annual, and bonus. Annual is always used first, and is available one year after being used. Bonus remaps are only usable if the annual remap is not available.
I have 4 bonus remaps: two base, +1 from when learning skills were removed, +1 was an optional Christmas present a few years back.
The annual remap does not accumulate, so use it or lose it! I try to remap every year, but most of my alts never remap. |

I cant talk about the remaps - but as far as the pocos are concerned - well it depends on the area and the activity of corps involved. I know some corps that are very active in taking and defending their pocos, others less so. But, poco ownership (at least for us) has proven not to be very profitable - it takes a very long time to recover the investment. In fact, not too long ago, I was talking to some other alliance leaders and they expressed the samething - that it seems to takes as long as a year in some cases to recover your costs and if you pick a bad planet - you may never recovery your costs. Nonetheless, we had some interesting times with the pocos as conflict generators - so I dont regret getting them - just dont expect to make bank from them.

I think there should be 2 remaps each year if remaps end up staying.
1st remap to change training to a more specialised plan and the 2nd to change it to a more general plan whilst waiting for the next 2. |

Don't count on it for your skill planning. |

Yes, it was the best Christmas present the Devs ever gave out. I seriously doubt we will see the likes of it again.
