Right. Off to Stain because it's a big hole in my map.
Of course to Stain from Khanid goes through HED-GP. Nasty business that but this time the lag monster didn't get me. The next most dangerous thing in there is running into frozen corpses on the gate.
Still I made it through and I'm in Stain now - 200+ jumps to see it all. The whole place is a whole long series of dead-ends that I have to fly out and back.
Bleah. Biggest jump chain so far to see a single region.

Well, Querious is behind me. Nothing nearly as exciting as seeing 2 Titans happened in the rest of the trip. Saw my first Amarr HIC (a Devoter) though.
Just 3 0.0 regions to go - Stain, Solitude, and Syndicate.
I've parked tonight in 0.6 in Khanid. It's a strange feeling having all those CONCORD ships around.
I haven't posted this in a while - Lots of coloured in bits :)
The thing on the left looks like a man with a hactchet charging in to chop off someones head. The thing in the top right looks like a man eating plant. The thing on the bottom left looks like a bunch of flowers offered to a wife after playing to much eve.That is all.

Well, I broke the back of the Stain journey today. 200+ jumps to see it all and I'm down to less than 65.
It's all red. It's all good. I've missed the adrenaline and the gatecamps of late.
Notes from today:
What a lovely place this is. At least that Russian Lady was very nice.
Lost Eve, thanks for the chat.
B-G1LG. Makes me think of BillG.
Some strange things going on out here. 100+ people in systems deep down a dead-end. LOTS of BSs left while I was in system. I wonder where they were going. At least none of them got a chance to shoot at me. Cloaking didn't get lagged out this time :)

Well, Stain is behind me. I dread to think what the big Empire regions are going to be like!
There were a number of camps around but really nothing that got my heart racing. Either I'm getting better at this (or less worried about things I should be!) or they really aren't trying hard in Stain.
There was a system in Period Basis about 3 jumps from the end of my Stain wander that hadn't been tagged. It was on the border so it's possible that I missed it the first time through. A good place to lay over for the night.
Of course when I got there I found a Safe Spot I made on the first trip through. So not only have I been here before but I've slept here too. Maybe this time it'll work.
Notes from today:
I'm learning to hate gate camps on the entrance gate to a dead-end constellation.
There's no trouble getting IN through them ... I just know I'll have to go out again in 5 or 6 jumps.

Well done as always, friend. Your last map image update looks lovely.
Looking at mine, I think I have more systems light up on "my assets" then on "systems I've visited".
I really need to get out of the POS more.
Now your next task will be to visit every system in eve and leave something in the hangar. Mwhaha!

Hey Celestra. Welcome, as always :)
I'm beginning to realise that my map will never be fully lit up.
Systems I've visited is always 2 Downtimes behind my actual visit so staying around in an area to ensure the lights go on is not a practical way to travel and now that I look around the map there are some noticeable dots not lit up.
Having checked that one in Period Basis only to find out that not only have I been there before but I've parked there and dropped a Bookmark?? The function works reasonably well but it's not perfect.

Having said all that, I'm not about to abandon the quest just because my tools aren't perfect!
Syndicate is behind me. Another hot-bed of NPC stations and mixed up corp relations.
Syndicate is unusual though. Almost all the stations are respectable empire corps - Aliastra, TransStellar, Trust Partners (perhaps not so respected). NPC 0.0 is usually Angels, Sanshas, Guristas, and the like.
The usual gate camps abound. Mostly 2 or 3 ships including a single HIC, a fast mover, and maybe one other. Nothing threatening, really.
How times have changed. Comparing that description to my first encounters with 0.0 gatecamps. My heart started racing, my hands got sweaty. Now I just pray that the lag won't stop my cloak from activating. That's pretty much the only thing that would catch me out here.

Well, I've crossed empire into Providence.
Fewer than 80 systems left to visit in 0.0 I can feel the tension now.
Got a nice greet when I was there:
zoolkhan > jeran the explorer?
Yeah. I guess that's me. Nice to be recognized on sight :)
Hopefully the kids won't play up too much tonight and I'll get a chance to finish the 0.0 journey. Within the next couple of days for sure.
Once the lights are on I'll post the 0.0 explored map.

Well, it's done.
0.0 holds no surprises for me now. I've seen it all.
Low-sec and empire await.
At the end I was shaking so hard that I could hardly hold the mouse and keep jumping.

Thanks guys.
For those who are interested the final system was MH9C-S in Providence.
Map will take a couple of days to update then I'll post it on EVEfiles.

An epic journey for sure. Make sure you say hi when you visit Solitude.

Well. I've taken up the banner again.
My South West corner was looking a little grey. Khanid and Aridia are too close to the edge of the galaxy for proper Empire systems so they have to go.
Khanid is done. Aridia is next.
If 0.0 was a test of endurance, Empire hopping is a test of patience.
I can AP through high-sec and ignore local in low sec. Just keep jumping, just keep jumping. What do we do? We jump, jump, JUMP!
Khanid is done. Aridia will have to wait for another day.

Thanks Bimjo. Good to see you're still around.
And Forlo, welcome to the forums.
I finished Hellgate:London today. It's been my DT game of choice for playing with a good friend who doesn't EVE.

Congrats, mate! I'm incredibly proud to be a member of your corp for many reasons, this being another among them. Keep Flying safe. I hope your journey goes smoothly and swiftly, as I'd be lying if I said that I didn't miss having you around.
Thanks for the vicarious voyage, and keep in touch!

Heya Temm, Gabe.
I'm around. A long way around.
Anyway. Aridia is done. Got to Genesis as the last jump.
Oooh. Genesis. Maybe I'll finally get to see the EVE gate.
And there's a certain something I want to go check out.
The place is a mess though. It interlinks all over the place and that makes it hard to pick the best route through.
However I have to trade off the time spent staring at the map with time I could be jumping. I don't mind a little backtracking if it saves 20 minutes spinning the map.
Of course DT intervened in my map making. Have to finish it later.

Whoops. Forgot to post my notes from the final 0.0 trip. Mostly boring so I didn't bother but they should be recorded somewhere:
Shintaht? Why the name? No reason is obvious here.
