By visiting all 5300 systems in known space. Then Prism X went and added another 2500+ systems in the middle of nowhere.
Well, today my conquest begins anew. I've found my first Wormhole system, bookmarked it, marvelled at the hideous number of signatures contained therein, and it's 1am (that's 0100 for you army-types). So. 1 down, 2499 to go. I think there's a reasonable naming convention but I'm bookmarking every one of them anyway. See you all in a year or two.

Pretty sure prism ate 2 systems, so there are actually 2498 wormhole systems. ---------------------------------------------

Assuming I only enter wormholes that lead to unknown space and that each system is equally likely to be entered by a random wormhole I am assured that I should expect to enter 21000 wormholes before I'm done.
I went to J132712 last night. Does anyone know if the naming system is consistent? If I got back there would it still be called that?

I'll screenshot anything that looks interesting. nopt all of it. I found 2 Ladar and a Gravi site last night and they have a bad habit of uncloaking me when I arrive so I didn't stick around to admire their beauty :). No sleepers yet. No idea what they look like or what triggers them. I think I need to take some archaeology gear, or even a Force Recon instead of the old Cheetah. Not yet though. This is still toe-dipping, learning the new probing time.
Anyone got a way I can verify that I've been everywhere when I'm done? Maybe I could offer my BM set to Chribba as a disinterested 3rd party to confirm there are, in fact, 2500 different wormhole systems listed in there.

I believe that the system name stays constant, its just the entrance/exit wormholes that shift.
good luck finding them all!

I wish you luck on your journey, you're gonna need it. If it makes you feel any better, I heard that they only added 2499 new systems to EvE. I'm guessing the 2500th one is off limits to players and used for testing purposes.
Anyway, that means you have one less wormhole system to visit. |

Assuming this map is correct and the reason the level 7/8/9 arent showing is because you need to enter them through lower level wormholes (and this is what we have found so far) then the only place you can find level 6 wormholes without first going through a level 5 is the delve area

Actually I think 7-9 aren't showing because they are Hi-sec, low-sec and nul-sec. There are only 6 levels of wormhole space. I would love to know how this map was developed. |

Entity constructed it from the cache files provided with the client. Why CCP released this data is anyone's guess, as it the client doesn't actually need it for anything at this point in time. --- 20:1 mineral compression ISRC Racing, Season 7 - schedule |

Anyone care to explain how I might go interpreting this map? I gathered that 7/8/9 are high sec/low sec/null sec, respectively, but other than that...
Is a class 1 WH better than a class 6?

Good luck
Also I believe (may be wrong on this, not on the team that did w-space) that some of the w-space is only accessible from other W-space. So there is no guarantee that you can get directly to every W-space system from K-space.
Wish you luck, You have completed one herculean task, this is the next :)

This is going to take longer than I thought. I'm improving my technique for finding Wormholes. It'd be nice if there was some distinction between them and all the other flotsam that hangs around. Found another WH tonight. This one from high-sec. I resolved to head through and never return through my entry hole. Ever onwards and upwards!! Of course this one led to Cloud Ring and not W-space at all.
So now I'm in the back of 0.0. Happens that we're blue to the locals so some friendly banter and DT intervened.
I want to get moving! 14 days until I can use Deep-Space probes. I wonder how much that will help...

I'm beginning to feel like this is the Hydra one. Cut off all of known space and PrismX adds wormholes. I'm sure he's just waiting for me to get close to my goal only to add another 10,000 systems on me.

But the systems already have names (although they are the alphabet soup designations)...unless you're using the can as the equivalent of planting a flag on the beach.

There is some misconception about WHs. There are three types of k-space and 3 types of w-space. ONLY THIS makes up the "6 classes" Entity is "trying" to document.
Class 1 - 3 high, low, 0.0 Class 4 - 6 unknown, dangerous and deadly.
I can confirm that my corp found a deadly class w-space from a dangerous space. The sig TO the deadly was the HARDEST I had ever scanned out before!!! It took me a good 45 minutes.

5 or 6 0.0 systems later. Finding 7/10 & 8/10 'plexes. Nothing interesting at all! Finally found another WH about 10 minutes before DT. This was an X702 - I'm now officially lost in WH space. Time to see where the rabbit-hole leads. This one was to J113347 for what it's worth :)

Maybe you could maintain a website similar to the one that Entity runs. Yours would show a list of all the w-space systems you have visited, with a search option. Kindly folks can, when they enter a WH, check the system against your list, and let you know - website comment, e-mail, evemail, whatever - where the WH is, and if you are close enough, you can pop over and through.
Of course, you will likely run into a few traps and time-wasters, but I'm sure your Noble Quest would go faster with some extra eyes helping out.

Originally by: CCP Incognito Just had a idea, you should take a bunch of small Cans and anchor one at each Sun you visit, then you can name the system.
I thought you people removed cans that had not been used for some time?

So in reality there aren't anywhere near 2498 systems, there are only about 1000. And the anchor a container at the sun is all really a plot to make us think it's a new system after the container has despawned?

Originally by: Loc Maythan Maybe you could maintain a website similar to the one that Entity runs. Yours would show a list of all the w-space systems you have visited, with a search option. Kindly folks can, when they enter a WH, check the system against your list, and let you know - website comment, e-mail, evemail, whatever - where the WH is, and if you are close enough, you can pop over and through.
Of course, you will likely run into a few traps and time-wasters, but I'm sure your Noble Quest would go faster with some extra eyes helping out.
That's actually a very good idea ... once I've visited a few more systems. Also I'll need to learn how to set up a web-site and search function. At this stage I've entered a grand total of 2 systems (and a 3rd wormhole that pulled me from high-sec to Cloud Ring)
Oh, the traps are fun too. I've been through a few in my time and it is so satisfying wandering around a gatecamp you've just waltzed through suggesting improvements for the defenders 
Originally by: Bumfish Can I ask what ship/fittings you're flying in? Recon?
Currently I'm flying the "Itinerant Nobody" - the Cheetah I completed the first omni-navigation in. I'm planning on graduating up to a Recon once I have a feel for what goes on out here and I'm better at scanning. Fittings are very basic - Cov Ops Cloak II, Named MWD, Sisters Expanded Probe Launcher (I'm a mission runner when I'm not wandering!), Nanos in the lows for alignment when bubbled.
Originally by: CCP Incognito I think a more grand task is for him to come to fan fest And win the PvP tournament Solo!
Can I win the tournament just by being impossible to find, even in a very small area?

So I finally found my ticket out of there. Another WH opened in the system I was scanning. or maybe it was there all along and I just hadn't found it. Anyway found a WH - back to high-sec.
I'm sure CCP is just doing this to laugh at me! I do think it's personal, yes. Happens that the WH was in Shumam. There was no-one in local, as is common in Shumam since it's a dead-end 0.7 space. I know it quite well, however. It's where I spent months, literally, flying courier missions for Further Foodstuffs training them up 8.0+ standing so I could get my first jumpclone, before I could fly L4 missions. Only to find that FF doesn't have any Medical stations and you can't get clones from them. They're still one of my highest standing corps, years later.
I'm quite sure CCP is moving WHs away from me to keep me from exploring them all and then holding out little tid-bits to keep me interested but stuck in K-space. This was obviously a deliberate jibe at me and my corp standings as they pulled me back from W-space into a little-known corner that holds personal significance and not much else.
All was not lost, however, I found a hacking site in Gid that dropped 10m worth of dectrpytors for very little effort. I still had a combat ship sitting around nearby to slap the Codebreaker onto while the Sanshas Frigates took pot-shots at me.

Now I'm convinced it is a conspiracy that revolves directly around me. I wandered off to sell my loot in Amarr, went looking for a new WH. Found one!! From Penirgman to Evaulon. Ah well. At least low-sec might have more interesting WHs. Nothing else in Evaulon. Next system over and bingo! 3 Ladar sites and a Wormhole. The wormhole is a K162 so it could lead anywhere. Show Info ... "This Wormhole seems to lead to high security space."
What is it with me and WH's? I found a 3-jump route from Penirgman to Tamekamur via Evaulon and Anchauttes.
Jeran. Signing off, still stuck in K-space.

Finding K-W holes is getting to be routine. Sometimes I have to roam a few jumps to find them but they're pretty easy to track down. Finding a new way out of the W-space I end up in is proving difficult. Too many grav sites and no assurance that there's another WH anyway. Until the entrance hole goes away, of course. Then I know there's a new way home. Bounced into Sinq Laison tonight out of my 3rd W-space. Almost straight away I'm back in J10something. Found someone else there for the first time. They didn't want to say hello, not even when I named them to prove that i had actually wandered into the area they were in.

I always enjoy learning about game mechanics. Really I do. I just wish the lessons weren't quite so expensive.
Last night I finished finding most of the places in the WH I was in and realised I hadn't BM'd the entrance. Now I don't particularly care where the entrance was but For whatever reason I went back to BM it. It was late, I was tired. I didn't warp cloaked. There was a Heretic on the wormhole back to high sec and he started SHOOTING at me. Now I don't consider this polite but nor do I consider it very bright. I promptly jumped through to high sec. Told it yes! I really did want to leave my probes behind. I could come back and get them later. It didn't believe me so I had to tell it again. It believed me that time and I jumped through with no shields but 99% armour.
Fair enough. Now to retrieve my probes and go sleep in some corner of WH space. So I jump back through and avoided his determined but largely ineffective attempts to find me once I came through the hole. I warped off to my safe spot and asked him why he was bothering to shoot at a Cheetah right on top of a Wormhole into High-sec. No response in local. I attempted some more conversation for a while then gave up getting a response from him. Obviously not the talkative type.
Eventually I logged off and asked him to close the hole on the way out.
8 minutes later he apparently probed me down and killed me along with my pod.
Apparently once I've been shot at I stay in space for 15 minutes. Now that I've checked my logs more closely I think he found me with less than 15 seconds left on my timer. Final hit he achieved on me while I was online was here: [ 2009.03.23 13:45:04 ] (combat) <color=0xffbb6600>Deunan Ramsey (Foxfire Javelin Rocket) hits you for <b>178</b> damage
Killmail says I died at 14:00ish. Since it would have taken roughly 5 shots to kill me and he was firing once every 2 seconds I'm guessing he found me within 10 seconds of 14:00:00. That is, no earlier than 13:59:50. 14 more seconds and I shouldn't have been there.
Ah well. At least my clone's in my Sister's agent station - grab another Sister's Expanded Probe Launcher from them and put my Cheetah back together. I wonder if I should move into a Recon this time...

I haven't forgotten you all. It's just that this is harder than wandering K-space. And my corp got involved in an alliance that had a war... My Cov Ops skillz were requested On the way home from my 30-jump scouting trip I got distracted by a shiny empty system with 2 WHs in it. One of which led to Dangerous W-space. From there it rabbit-holed to 2 more Dangerous spaces and a couple of normals. Pity. I was looking for Deadly W-space ): So the count's up to 16 and I'll disappear again for a while.

Originally by: Poreuomai Glad to see you are still exploring.
Yup I'm still exploring. It takes me between 10 minutes and an hour to find a new wormhole in W-space. I get maybe 2-3 of these time periods in a day's play and I don't play every day. Given that I need to find 21000 of them this is not going to be a short-term endeavour. When I've got my number up to something worth talking about I might start recording where I've been an possibly paying for people to notify me of entrances to places I've not been yet. Then I won't need to enter quite so many of them.
For the moment each of the 19 I've been to has been unique and I have 19 Safe Spot BMs in W-space.
Oh, and I moved to an Anathema when I got podded, just for kicks.

I love what your doing here man, I found it to be a great read while stuck at work!
Would be a great idea to make a short (not necessarily a story) read on your experiences, if you had the time that is :)
Also, on the note of the website idea, should that ever become more than just an idea I would love to assist in the making of the website if need be :) If you don't agree with me, you haven't thought about it long enough. If you do agree with me you may want to rethink the situation... |

Lol. I've got 7 or 8 Drakes scattered around Empire. If I find a WH that opens near one then I'll map it carefully and take a Drake back in to clear out the Mag & Radar sites. I've discovered I should probably do the Anomalies as well. I carry a Core Probe Launcher and Hacking / etc. modules with me so I can fit out whichever Drake a land on.
So no. My stuffz is mine still.

With any luck we will have another alliance tournament, at that point I suggest you signup to fight on a team, that way you can have little dots on the map in some super secret systems over in jove space. __________
