Bookmarking

Corporate Bookmarks WHC follows an easy to understand bookmarking convention, although it varies depending on whether it is a site or wormhole

Sites

• Standard format is "<sigtype> [<sigid>] <additional info>"
• Signature types are G(Gravimetric), L(Ladar), R(Radar), M(Magnetometric)
• Examples;
  • G [CCC] Average Frontier Deposit
  • L [DDD] Barren Perimeter Reservoir

Wormholes

• For BMs leading away from Innuendo the format is .[current system]>[system it leads into]
• For BMs leading towards Innuendeo the format is *[current system]>[system it leads into]
• They are the same except the first character
• Use the friendly wormhole name (see below)

Personal Bookmarks

You are also recommended to make certain personal bookmarks

• Bookmark the K-Space side of wormholes yourself
• Make safe spots
• Make tactical bookmarks
  • Double optimal from each POS defense grouping
  • On grid yet outside minimum warp distance (150km) of the POS
  • Just off grid from POS

Naming Systems

• ANY W-Space connection off bacon is prefixed with "B".
• ANY W-Space connection off eggs is prefixed "E".
• ALL W-Space dynamics and their respective chains are prefixed with a new letter starting from the end of the alphabet (ie first chain is "Z" then "Y" etc.)
• ALL K-Space connections are prefixed with the appropriate letter. All numbers remain unique. So "BH2" and "EH2" shouldn't exist together.

An example map

Erm, What's this System Called then?

If it is bacon or eggs, then the system is bacon (shortened to B) or eggs (shortened to E). How easy was that? Below assumes you're about to jump into the system

Find Initial Letter

• If you're in Bacon: it's "B"
• If you're in Eggs: it's "E"
• If you're in Innuendo:
  • kspace does not have one
  • wspace, from end of alphabet, take first unused letter
• Otherwise, use the first letter from your current system

kspace letter

• If the connection is a kspace, take the first letter of the type of space (ie H, L, or N)

Find the number

• For kspace systems
  • If this is Bacon's static then take 1
  • Otherwise find the first number that is unused for the type of space it is. If there are no other systems of that type of space, use 2.
• For wspace systems
  • From Bacon or Eggs use 2
  • Otherwise use the earliest number which does not currently have a system with the same initial letter as the system

Put it all together

Your system is initial letter + kspace letter + number (ignore any parts that don't exist)

Loot Hauling & Selling Service

Camp leadership operates a loot hauling and selling service. You will be payed later but you won't have to haul loot through wartarget riddled K-Space. WHC takes a 5% cut for operational costs and distributes the rest based on income.

To make use of this service your salvager should learn how to use the spreadsheet linked in the standing fleet and drop acquired loot into the labeled can in system.

• Please fill out this form to gain access to the loot spreadsheet.

If you're hauling your loot on your own please note the WSOP is in full effect during wartime. Do not use your main to haul loot.

First Day in the Hole? Situational Awareness

First, welcome to the WHC. We hope you enjoy your stay. This section is intended to help new pilots get acclimated to their first day and create some general good practices while living in the wh to keep everyone safe and secure in terms of good situational awareness.

Before anything, be sure to get in mumble and get in the WHC fleet. Note that you may have to ask for access to the fleet in mumble and verify that you are a new member admitted to the WHC.

Situational awareness is probably the most important factor when living in w-space. We must always be constantly aware of who is in our w-space and all the connections between our space and space around us (both k-space and w-space connections). In order to be situationally aware, there are some procedures that you might want to follow every time you log in or enter the known w-space. There are other procedures for entering unknown or unscanned w-space, but these are covered in classes and other wiki pages provided by the uni.

1. Check in mumble if there are any unfriendlies identified in system
2. Check the mapper for any activity/pvp in the system and to get an idea of connections and signatures in the system.
3. D-scan always - It is very important to be aware of your d-scan results and your overview tabs. It is always a good idea to be aware of both fleet members in system and visitors using D-scan. So, having multiple overviews setup for different information will help you d-scan quickly and know who is in your system (uncloaked).
4. "Friendly Probes" - it is always a good idea to check the mapper and ask in fleet/mumble if the system has been scanned recently. The mapper will indicate when a system is scanned and the time of the scan, so this should be identifiable. If no one has scanned recently, send out a single probe (announce it in fleet/mumble that you are launching probes) and check for new signatures (not bookmarked and not in the mapper). If everything is the same, you are aware of all the connections. If there is a new signature, send out more probes and scan it down to see if we have a new w or k-space connection.
5. Now that you are situationally aware of your surroundings, you can enjoy the spoils of w-space by joining fleets to run sites, huff gas, pvp, or other activities. PI is also always available as a solo activity as well.

Do not get Complacent or over Confident

A single Stealth Bomber can take out an industrial very quickly before anyone can help to arrive.

• Monitor D-scan and stay in mumble/fleet.
• Never operate AFK outside the pos-shield (even in the pos shield, you could get bumped out or warped by your squad leader inadvertently).
