While doing some exploring last night, ok we were hunting, I found a C2 with almost 200 anoms and sigs. There were 2 active POS with ships that could easily handle C2 sites. Obviously the residents had not run a significant amount in ages, but how long do you have to idle for that many to spawn? Has anyone ever seen more? |

200 seems a bit high - even in the months after wormholes were released when a large number were uninhabited and some hardly if at all visited in weeks or months I don't think I saw a system with more than about 68 sites. 40-60 seems about the going rate for wormholes where sites have built up untouched. |

Had to do some cropping to fit it all in one image. I can supply original images if people really want to dispute it, but my point isn't to prove the legitimacy of my claim. That's over 150, a bit shy of my original claim but I didn't take an exact count last night. Do you think CCP is aware of this? We came in through a R943. Would they manually spawn this hole? All other holes that we found were going out from the C2 but I am not sure if I spawned them or not.

That is unusual, but not impossible.
Back in the day, BUGRY found a C3 with U210. It had 106 grav sites, 48 ladars, 13 radars, 15 mags and 63 anomalies. We came in via a T405 from our C4, sieged the dudes out (the CEO logged in 10 minutes before his POS popped, said "lol" and logged) made about 9 billion from the POS and 3-4 billion from grinding the anoms, mags, radars, etc.
I tried selling the hole to some mining carebears with 104 gravs intact, but no one would bite. Possibly because they were worried about the lowsec connection, who knows, but a system like that is a gold mine for a corp who loves grinding rocks. At about 300M per grav in ABCs alone...
My advice? Farm the anoms, radars and mags, suck the good ladar gas, then leave them to it. They are probably more concerned with researching BPO's in peace than PVPing. You don't accumulate 100 sigs if you ever regularly log in to scan.
Taking submissions for "Trinkets friendly Advice Column" via evemail or private convo in-game. Anonymity sorta guaranteed.

Actually, I only see 90 anom's....rest are signatures which need to be scanned down.
Having said that, I would follow TF's bit of advice, and assist those plebian carebears in their horrendous effort to scan out their static when the time comes for one of them to stick their nose out of the hole for a sanity check.....
A group of pvp fit drakes, a salvager or 2, and a smattering of scouts can make (fairly) short work for a tidy bit of iskies. |

Tbh this would be horrible for baiting, because with so many sites clustered together you have a really hard time finding the one where the ratters are in.

we found a c5 that had 85 signatures....black hole . what happens is when the sites are run and they respawn elsewhere certain systems end up accumulating them. Usually they only last several days and ran or not move elsewhere. In this case it is likely the dumping ground of an active constellation.
regardless thats quite the unique find, ive never seen so much junk on scan before. |

I ran across a C5 last week with about 60-80 anoms and sigs. I nearly wet my pants. I literally said holy @#$% out loud. |

Very interesting system; never seen anywhere near that many. I found a C2 w/ null-sec one time that was occupied and had like 30 or 40 anomalies with about 10 radars/mags and I thought that was off the hook.

Back in the beginning of my WH career I moved into a WH with my corp after we found I think it was 92 combat sites...we spiked over 2k sleeper kills on dotlan in 24 hours :)
I never wanted to see an oruze again. I hated my life, but got my wallet loved it.
Usually these end up being null connections for c3's, blackholes & the like that no one would ever live in, but sometimes you get greedy people or carebears who just dont give a toss, either way exploit it and have fun ^^
+1 to the guy who noted it'd be crap bait, combats or gtfo in that situation... |

You came into that C2 via an R943, which will say K162 inside the C2. If you found (edit: only) 2 other wormholes, those would have been the statics. C2 systems will always have 1 K-space and one W-space static. |

There were 4 holes; the one we came in and 3 "outs". I recorded them on my notes and will post when I get home. |

Outgoing wormholes don't have to be statics. It is to be expected that a system with so many signatures has several wandering outgoing wormholes, in fact I'd expect more than just one. Wormholes accumulate in a system until activated just like sites do.
edit: Well not the same as sites since there is a maximum number; I think there can only be a maximum of four outgoing wormholes and seven wormholes in total in a system.

I think it is higher than 7 WH's at one time. We had a static a week or two ago that had 8 wh's. 5 of them going to or coming from null, one to a c3, one to its static and one from our system. I've never seen more than that though.
Also, I'd hate having lots of sigs in our home system. It makes it all the more difficult keeping track of new sigs, new incoming WH's and updating sigs after downtime. |

Pics or it didn't happen 
In years of wh life I have seen seven wormholes in one system several times, but never eight. And I think the devs said after Apocrypha that seven is the maximum number. If there is evidence to the contrary I'd be interested to see it.
Once I had ten wormholes in one system over a period of 24 hours, but not more than seven at the same time; one of the holes had always collapsed before the next one spawned.

Im sure the max amount was 7. Maybe one of the first ones despawned as you were scanning towards the end of the list? |
