yeah of course. :)
so you tell me that there was a cloaker in your system on some safespot and you just warped between celestials and created safespots until you were 2km near him?
holy ****, how can you even suggest such an impossible thing and telling us we should believe it?
most likely you forgot to cloak or were decloaked before warp somehow and you thought you were still cloaked. happened to me so many times on my cloaky alt so i just put it out there :) |

The character in question had been in system and cloaked for some considerable time. The character is used as eyes for intel, whilst my main does things in the next system. I had checked, periodically, that they were cloaked and they were. I am satisfied that this isn't what happened.

Dude.
Dracvlad is the only player I know who successfully hunted down and killed an AFK cloaker. His intel capabilities in the background make me eternally glad he's not a merc.
I have not been so afraid of another player since Herr Willkus and King Rothgar ( who can scan you down without you getting a chance to see the probes).

Of course, this is all theory and can't have happened to anyone 3 times...

It's my understanding that you can find uncloaked people on line safes with out probes.
However, under cloak nobody has been able to find me... however, I can think of a way you can be found.
If you had a momentary power loss or internet glitch, it could have been down long enough to trigger the auto warp function. I watched my Corp Mate disconnect twice last night and in the minute it took him to get back on line, his ship would warp off in a random direction. Once it even warped back to the original spot.
If this happened, your cloak would drop and you would be vulnerable. This is a hazard of AFK cloaking from my understanding.

Without a timer you will log out near instantly in space, so that isn't likely unless the person has a way of forcing someone to disconnect with a push of a button.
The only thing I can think of is someone already had probes down and was tracking the OP before they cloaked. Then they simply screened the area with scan probes so that one would bump them which will deactivate cloak. This sort of thing is less likely to happen in a smaller ship, but in something like a capital with its slow warp speed and large area it can get bumped, I could see it happening.
The last thing I can think of is some type of overview setting that allows scans to see cloaked ship. But that more falls in with tinfoil hat thoughts. |

Better question is "how did no one find me?" I once got decloaked by rats 100km over a belt once. Rats killed my AFK Covert Ops.
I once thought I was cloaked up, and was wondering why that frigate was burning so fast in my general direction... Whoopsie.

We have actually had 'conversations' with a certain corp member's kittycat. Apparently she knows where the talk button is =^.^=
As for the OP, wait for your ticket response. CCP would have logged whether an input event was detected. |

That's a lot of nonsense.
Also, you wording makes it sound as if he did it once which could be explained by sheer luck, the target being at an obvious 0-100km from a celestial or him getting the intel elsewhere (previously used BM, spy alt or whatever). His statements make it sound as if he can repeat the process. |

So yesterday, I leave my ship cloaked in the deep safe and I go to have dinner. I come back and realise that my ship is lost and I am in station. Is there some sort of arbitrary time-out that means that my cloaking device will deactivate itself? I find it improbable that I was found, but is it possible that the guy that caught me was randomly warping around the system and happened to decloak me, thus allowing the opportunity for me to be probed? Or am I misunderstanding some other odd behaviour?
Cheers! You are not misunderstanding anything. You should have been completely safe. Either you left the computer and were not cloaked as you believe, or there is some sort of bug at work here. File a petition and CCP should (eventually) get to the bottom of it by looking at the logs.
Pretty much this. My money is on the mistakenly thought you were cloaked than bug.

Dracvlad is not wrong...but it isn't as likely as it seems. Here is why:
Safe spots are a function of a number of things. Which celestial are you warping to, warp speed, and when you click on the bookmark button. While players might duplicate the first two with a high probability, the chances of the third makes the over all process far less likely. Adding in two bookmarks constructed in a similar manner makes it even less likely.
For example, suppose at the time of making the initial bookmark there are 2 viable celestial bodies. We'll stipulate the same warp speed to simplify the calculations so that can be omitted. All that is left is the probability of dropping a bookmark at exactly the same time. Let suppose there are 20 seconds in which this bookmark could be dropped.
Probability two players have the same bookmark is 0.5*0.05 = 0.025.
Now, again, lets assume the same numbers for the second bookmark. So now the probability of 2 players making the same two bookmarks is 0.000625.
Now, we have the third bookmark to make and lets assume for the sake of this example, there are 10 seconds in which to created a viable bookmark (e.g. not on grid with the other two bookmarks). Now the probability is 0.0000625. How often would we have to try and create such book marks to get one hit--i.e. two players each creating the same bookmark? 1 in 16,000 tries. If we increase the number of celestials the probability drops rapidly.
It could happen, but my guess is you thought you activated your cloak, but in fact did not and were probed down and killed.

If a cloaked player loses connection, even without a timer, they disappear from local channel but show up on d-scan for one minute before disappearing. It's a one million km emergency warp so if you get a clue of the general direction and distance, have a dab hand with the covops and the probes, it can be done. Hostiles have one minute to catch and kill that ship. I've done this many times and missed nabbing a guy's Raven by one pass of the probes just the other week. Eve does work on one-second ticks, but players don't. While in warp, a bookmark is created in the one-second tick after the player hits 'submit'. To catch someone at a bookmark between a celestial and an intercelestial bookmark would be akin to winning the lottery 500 times in a row. Or just Infinity Ziona level of nonsense. People who type the same way backing each other up tend to be alts of that one wrong duder.
edit: pursuant to previous post Gåæ after cloaking at any kind of safe i always burn towards 'empty' sky for a few seconds off the path, probability is now zero.

You even showed its wrong, hence my original question.
It's wrong for all the reasons you point out and additional ones such as server ping time, which isn't the same for everyone, nor even the same for one person at different times. So when you press the button to accept the bookmark is less important than when the server receives the message.
And it is an extremely easy claim to check. Any of us can do it. Go make a safe as outlined by the OP and if 2 aren't in the same spot using the same method, then the claim is wrong. It's simple to test.

Even knowing all 3 celestials, player warp speeds, skills and how many server tick segments are within that AU warp distance the chance is incredibly low for a 3 celestial safe, but adding the bmk to bmk warp makes it near mathematically impossible to do as it adds in 3 player driven variables on the bmks actual spot irregardless of server reception of the keystroke.
So yes I call BS on what moron boy is claiming and if he did it ONCE he used up all the luck he shouldve used to buy a Powerball lotto ticket for the big one with it.
I too am in the you failed to cloak or something, in RL at your keyboard, decloaked you camp. If this was a regular feature from CCP you would never hear the end of whine and tantrums from the player base as all of their ships went boom over it as people probed them out. CCP will have the info you seek if the player that killed you doesnt give you the info themselves. Either a keystroke was omitted or another one was added. The client window focus issue has happened to me a lot before and once specifically I can recall in relation to not cloaking up when I had wanted to.
Getting on grid through probes or making bmks has never been easier but getting within 2kms of someone is an entirely different animal.

As a side note.
If people consistantly landed on the same bmk within 2kms a trade hub like Jita would be a good place to use that tactic to find peoples instawarp bmks yet it doesnt work. Even with the multitude of people using dif or the same bmks you dont see a wealth of OMG someone landed on top of me!! moments as people use them. And if such heavily used and traveled areas DONT experience this sort of phenomena on a grand scale it is a telling statistic imo.

Noone (at least not me) said it wasn't possible to find Safes in between two Celestials. I even do that on Occasion.
BUT
- those were not cloaked - that safe was between two celestials - he landed 100km away
It gets considerably harder when
- those ships are cloaked - that safe is between two Bookmarks (!!!)
It's even worse when those warps are long or you have an old BM of a deep Signature, which would be out of reach for everyone without probes. |

Using this procedure your bookmark 3 will be on the line between bookmark 1 and celestial C. Actually making bookmark 2 while warping from B to C you get properly misaligned lines.

This does not explain what I actually observed- twice. My corp mates ship SAT there for about a minute the warped out in a random direction. The first time the ship stayed where it had warped to and it had taken him several minutes to get back on line. The second time he was able to reconnect faster and it warped back to our starting point all by itself and was in mid return warp when his screen came up for him.
Now, I don't know if the reconnect triggers anything, it appeared to in the second instance or the timing was just remarkable coincidence. It's possible there are some hidden timers at play here.
What was really cool is that it pulled in his drones for him too. That's pretty smart behavior. Good job CCP. A better solution would be to warp to a friendly station and dock automatically, but the random location isn't hideous for HiSec either.
