Uh.. no. Please stop trying to de-rail the thread based on something that will never happen. It's off-topic, and against the forum rules to hi-jack threads.
Back on topic:
Thanks everybody for the help and the contracts. After the relization that I only needed 9009 corpses to fill it - He really said 'doh!' when I asked - I know that this is so very possible. Thank you for all your support, its making him worried.. he actualy asked me how many I had this morning. :)

Whats 'TQ'? May I ask what 'sisi' or 'FFA' stands for, please?
I actually wanted to include one of his corpses in the mix for fun, like mak it the last one to add after showing him one slot empty, but from what was explained to me I cant really afford to do that, so its not really an option.
The way I had it explained to me last night was that standard rate is one billion isk per corpse collected of the target, a 500 million 'privacy fee' and an additional cost of about 300 million extra per 'collateral casualty' they kill trying to collect the original targets corpse, plus isk equal to losses or expenses paid daily. I don't have even close to that kind of cash, so the options off the table.

Thanks. That does not sound like it would help me; It needs to be on what I now know is called 'TQ'.
I just counted: 218 donated corpses so far out of the 9009 I need. |

This is great. I just asked my corpmates to start collecting stray corpses that they find, and I'm going to throw in my own small collection of corpses as well. |

I have 476 corpses in my collection. Do you accept loans? I'd want that many back eventually.
Also, any GMs want to offer to work some database magic to load them all into the freighter when the time comes? I'm sure they could get around the 1000-item shelf space limit. |

I can't decide wether this is an elaborate scam in advance of a possible biomass use in future patches, if it's a clever event for the fun of it, or if it's really what the OP states.
However, I think the amusement value and the funfactor of it if it gets pulled off outweighs any doubts about a possible scam or what little value in ISK the scam might produce.
If I find any corpses I'll contract them. I'm expecting to hear updates though on how it progresses.
Heck, we should add some goals and milestones, like reaching 500 corpses before December 1st and so on. I say "we" cause this is more of a "joint-venture" event than a personal quest.
And if it does crash a system I'm going to laugh.
You should name the Charon or the cargocontainers "Pandora's box". Open the corpse-filled container of doom and the system crashes. Great stuff! -------------------------------------------------- "Every complex problem has a solution which is easy, neat and wrong!" |

Originally by: mamolian The maximum amount of corpses you can fit into a Charon is: 9009?
1001 per freighter can, and 1001 in the cargohold itself..
If that's true, then by getting only 9009 corpses I would have technically fulfilled my obligation, right? After all, I wouldn't be able to fit any more so the charon would be 'full'.
I wonder if he knew this, I will have to ask when he gets off work tonight. This loophole may help me a lot!
Thanks!
Some calculations: 1. Corpse is 2.0m3 2. Charon with no skills holds 785,000m3: 392,500 corpses worth ignoring the shelf-space limit of 1001 items per container 3. Charon with minimum flyable skills holds 824,250m3 (since you need at least Freighter level 1 to fly it): 412,125 corpses worth. 4. Charon with full skills holds 981,250m3: 490,625 corpses worth. If you are just going for the "number of corpses that fills a Charon", one of these numbers is your goal.
5. Corpses fit in containers, but only General Freight Containers and Courier Contract packages can be used in a freighter. 6. You could put the corpses into Huge Secure Containers (1,950m3 inside, so 975 corpses per can; 1,500m3 on the outside of each can), then put up to 100 of the Huge Secure Containers in each Courier Contract to you (100x1,500m3 outside size = up to 150,000m3 per Courier Contract package). 7. You could put 6.54 of these Courier Contract packages into the max-skilled Charon (make the last Courier Contract only .54 of the full size by only putting 54 Huge Secure Containers in it), then top-off the Charon with individual corpses. 8. Using this method, I think you could fit 637,775 corpses into a max-skilled Charon. I think this is the upper-limit of your goal. ----- I'm a collector! Want to trade?

ok, i have to reply to this one.
I, or rather our corp has over 12000 corpses. thing is, you cannot put anymore then 1001 corpses in any one place (either personal hanger, corperate hanger section, or hauler/cargo bay)
you will have to be more clear on wether the charon is to have no more cargo space left after u put in all the corpses, or just "fill" the cargo bay with 1001 corpses, leaving the charon empty for the most part.
You could however try to fill up GSC's with 1001 corpses each and try to get enuff corps filled GSC's to fill up the charon, but if memory serves me well (and it usually doesn't, so i apologize beforehand), GSC's won't fit into the cargo hold of a charon. another option would be to put 1001 corpses into a general freight container, thereby hardly filling the GFC, repeat the process about 7 times (942.000 m3 with caldari freighter lvl 4)leaving you with about 102.000m3 of cargo space. fill the remaining cargo space with corpses also, and u get a grand total of about (7x1001)+(1001-7 (GFC's)) = 8001 corpses.
for a modest fee i'd be willing to get you that ammount of corpses, contact me in game to make a deal.

edit: didn't consider/think of the courier contract thingy. still, if you only need like 8 or 9k of corpses, contact me in game and we'll see if we can come an agreement.
I tried to contact you but your chat is set for a fee of almost a million isk. I cant afford that :( Can we still deal?
I just accepted a large contract in amsen for over 190 (Thank YOU!), it looks like I have over 300 corpses now. Thank you everybody!
If I have 303 out of a needed 9009, I have just over 3% of what I need so far. Only 97% left! |

I'm not begging, in fact I have explicitly said I do not want peoples isk. Also, corpses are not sellable, refinable, etc, and you can not make money on them.
