I'll support this, but on the condition there is actually something there to see/do, and not just empty space.
On a side note, I wonder just how far out from the main Eve map this safespot is? ~

+1 for the lolz (like everyone else so far).
I do pity the GM's though, who will have to deal with the droves of dimwits who will try warping to it before having an idea about how long that would take.

Actually this sounds like a good idea.
The players of EvE often stretch the limits of the sand box in ways the Devs never imagine. A monument of some kind would be a fitting tribute.
Heck you could have the monument dish out worthless tokens like you get at real tourist sites "I visited the 95k safe spot" keyrings.
I suppose this must be my sig. I'll do something cool with it eventually. |

While lurking in the ships and mods forum, the number crunchers there were able to determine how long it would take to get to this safespot.
16 - 20 YEARS depending on your ship 
So ya, maybe saving this safespot isn't such a good idea  ~

A fully tricked out cov ops could do it in 1 hour 20 minutes.

there should be a gate to get to it.

Seriously, put a permanent Cyno out there so Capitals or Black-Ops can lock onto it.

Does someone feel like calculating how long it would take to fly there, and how often you'd have to initiate warp to get there, considering fast-warp ceptor, warp speed rigs, pdu's and capacitor stuff? Don't forget the time you need while speeding up/slowing down warp speeds as well as cap regen rates when you drop out XD ---------

at 20AU/s if you could do it in one jump it would take about 9.5 years to get there!!! ... I don't even know how they managed to get that safe

In a rigged Cheetah it would take 9.5 years to get there, but hey, this should be commemorated!

This realy should be a Landmark. Would be fun to travel accross the milkyway. Maybee even a new Background at that location would be nice with the Milkyway on it to simulate that u are above (or below) the galaxy.

Originally by: darius mclever rumors say some people managed to fly so far that the map showed them in jove space ... i guess the bookmark is from that trip.
I heard about this back in 2006/early 2007. He used some sort of Observator Deep Space Probe (?). There is a nicely done report on this very forum somewhere complete with visual evidences showing the ôyou are hereö marker clearly within a Jovian solar system.
Maybe an old fart can back me up with a link or something? I canÆt seam to find it..
Perhaps he stacked 7 MWD and had itÆs way?
He did it back when you could warp to probes. So, it was a simple task of putting a probe as far out as possible on the map, then warping to it... a few hundred times. The purpose was to reach Jove space. Obviously, you can't actually be "in" Jove space (systems only load by passing through a jump gate), unless you are in the alliance tournament, but you could fly to where it should be. Video link here.
I don't think there should be a monument where players cannot reach it. I would support a monument in the system he flew from, with some recognition to him for reaching Jove space without gates (or something to that effect).
This signature is useless, but it is red.

Edited by: Last Wolf on 19/04/2010 20:31:27 It would take 9.0286777 real life YEARS of warping 24/7 a day (assuming infinite capacitor and no downtime) in a tech II rigged cov-ops to reach that BM.

I'd like for it to be a monument, but not one you can warp to. Instead, it would be cooler if you had to find it via exploration. Perhaps getting there would require finding a new w-space system--one with toxic effects that destroy any man-made items after a period of time (e.g., at each DT). The entrance to this w-space could shift between low, high, and null sec, but the system would contain a static exit to the monument (the location of the static exit would move around inside the w-space as per usual, and thus have to be scanned out to be found).
Why make visiting something so cool easy?

I absolutely agree to this, there should be a gate to the spot, with a nice view of the eve universe from afar, like you guys said. such an attraction would be epic. 
seriously, this would commemorate not only the farthest object ever made in eve, it would commemorate the absolute farthest distance a video game has ever created, and prove how us players can push a sandbox to ridiculous limits

Yes, by all means set a cyno or gate there and then when players load the starmap, not the system map, they should see all the Eve galaxy as just a tiny dot far, far away.

Except it is in the same galaxy as the rest of Eve. Just in the Jove part of the galaxy.

It's things like this that players can tell other people that make them want to join. Player accomplishments that are made into monument make for great stories.
