What will people do during Noobs Night in the Hole? PVP? PVE? Mining? It is pretty common for the plan to be a krabbing session that then turns into PVP unintentionally, but that doesn't have to be the Noobs Night in the Hole every time. ~~You might consider~~ reaching out to other wormhole corps ~~you've fought with~~ and ask if they'd like to plan for some "Pistols at Dawn" pew pew. This can take some considerable effort as both members of WHC and the other corp will have to make an effort to roll into each other. A slightly easier way to approach PVP for Noobs Night in the Hole is to rage roll on the day of the event until WHC is connected to a few different corps. Reach out to them and ask if they'd be interested in a planned fight in a few hours. If one says yes, roll off the connections to any other corps to avoid getting third-partied. Always be prepared for the possibility that another corp will say yes and then as everyone is forming up on the wormhole that you'll find out the other corp can't form after all. If PVP is the desired activity, have a backup plan and be prepared for the hassle of reshipping an entire group of people who aren't accustomed to reshipping quickly.

If krabbing, decide whether to krab out of the C3 static ("Bacon") or in home. Krabbing in home offers greater control over the variables and won't require rage rolling the static until someone finds a suitable Bacon for farming. The advantage of krabbing out of the static is that it opens up the possibility for other kinds of content and it gives the visiting Unistas a chance to see more of how WHC operates, especially if the group is looking at Pathfinder (all Unistas can see WHC's Pathfinder map, but only WHC members can make edits). The obvious downside is that having a bunch of people down chain, even if only as far as the static, means that the group might get dropped on by a hostile fleet.
