Primary target = First Tower
Secondary target = Get past my brother (Ruska Kissa Cat) in entropiatracker global amounts in mining... COMPLETED!!

Ive never kept track of my losses before so maybe its time to start...

Skills

Prospector lvl in start = 32.6 Now = 33
Surveyor lvl in start = 23.1 Now = 24

I will info when i hit to new lvl.

Tools used

Ziplex Tk320 (L)
MF-212 (L) (until it breaks then ill buy something better)
OM-104
MD-104

Runs

Will mainly do 2 OA-103 and 1 MA-103 runs.
2 OA-103+bombs = 374 PED
1 MA-103+probes = 192.5 PED

Total cost = 566.5 (the price might changed for ped or 2 depending how cheap amps i can find)

Markup and Decay

I will count the markup of that day and if there aint any sold i will use the week.

Decay wont be counted.. but i will add the refiner+drills repair costs to the total losses in a point when i need to repair em... and the finder prices when i need to buy a new one.


Total Profit/Loss = +808.85 PED

I am on gluepots wave length on this.

We all can't win all the time... I think daily we all want a hof or uber item in hunting or mining. Few will get it. Why stress over it? Honestly you hit your tower what are you going to do with the ped? Mine more? Lose it? Withdrawal? Invest? Whine that it wasn't as big as the other persons?

Does it even matter?

Sorry if this sounds like an attack. I think you focus too much on what other people are hitting rather than examining strategy or other options.

I do wish you luck on your desire.

yes it matters.. coz its my personal mission.. what ive been desperately hunting for almost 3 years.. and while seeing ppl score towers on their first or second global it makes me wanna try harder
 
+ rep ruskea for doing something next to whining:):yay:
 
Ok Ruskea, now you are turning it into something positive. I wish you all the best on you're quest and it's not that you don't deserve it.

Keep up this pace and get some money back from the system.

As far as I know it's rather difficult to score a tower hunting :laugh:

Plz ad locations for every run do:)

Most miners will not do this, because if somebody else mines out their favorite mining spot, then no ores left for them.
 
Yes but even then. Some people mine in the same spot as others and they find something 5 minutes after someone just mined there and found nothing.

Btw what is a Tower?

exactly.. all tho if ur a good miner u should know the area from the ores/enmatters ive found... and one reason is that i change locations sometimes 3 times between eudo and ame.. so it would get quite messy...

and oh yeah Q continues :F was hunting some osses and malcs with my bro for few days

When you find something while mining with a tt-value over 4k ped you get a drill-tower. That drills up the stuff for you so you don't spend days and days drilling at the claim.

Interesting correlation is here. As soon as somebody starts a thread at Entropia forum tracking his/here mining runs he/she starts to make profit. Its a clue I think. :yay:
