You don't have the main DarkSpace directory? How do you play?

Just a little discouragement to my competitors...
To scan the entire MV with a scout ship (which has a maximum sight range of 5k gu in all directions), NOT counting time lost to going around enemy planets and their dictor fields, Each pass over the MV from one side to the other taking 15 minutes, would take about 500 passes....
Thats 5 days, 5 hours of continuous jumping.... all to be done in just 18 days, where you sleep, work, and eat...
Now, friendly help. Musiq and I have traced most of the JG lines on the MV, following them (long-jump style) from one gate to the other. Nothing. Nothing between Epsilon Eri and Kapteyn's Star either. Nothing where the Natural WH path crosses the 148-448 JG path. Nothing in any of the Tripwik nebulas. and nothing between BD and proc A.

Clues will slowly be released as the next Two Weeks™ pass. You're free to search now with no clues, but as mentioned, there's a lot of space to cover. Or you can just bide your time and hope nobody beats you to it while you wait for it to be narrowed down. Its a trade-off of how much time you're willing to put in, basically.

What he just said.
Also... we won't necessarily announce the clues. There may be some already, if you look hard enough, but you will have to find out for yourselves.
