I logged a support call with Frontier Support for a death I felt was unfair or a result of a bug.  The following is the aftermath... So I had an interesting week with Elite Dangerous. I had recently purchased an Anaconda for 121mil credits due to the sale at Zaonce.  I had about 150mil in the bank, so was able to get a basic combat spec Anaconda with about 8mil in the bank.  With just under 7 mil as my insurance premium, I headed to the CG at 78 Ursai Majoris for some fun in the RES killing wanted folk.  Due to Townshend station being 13000 ls from the jump point, I literally went there to accept the mission and then went to the RES in HE BO with a view to cashing in every 24 hours or so.  After 2 days I had about 2.7mil in uncashed bounties and was heading for 3 mil before cashing in for the night. There was a knock at the door.  CMDR Apex was there in real life to drop off a USB stick.  I've learnt not to leave E:D ships unattended so I killed the current ship I was fighting and ...

Extract from the issue I just logged: Issue date: 18 May 2015, approx 11pm GMT+2 Hi, ​ ​Was playing the RES in 78 Ursae Majoris.  Had accumulated 2.7 mil in credits.  Had to answer doorbell.  I exited to menu.   ​ ​Please check the save logs and restore the bounty.  I need it to contribute towards the Community Goal. ​ ​The previous night I was also disconnected from servers and could not join.  I'm not sure if its related.   ​ ​Please assist.

That's how you do the final episode after 6 seasons. Classy. Boyd Crowder chaotic bad and Raylan Givens chaotic good. #justified

Potential Trade Route Picked up 1T Nvidia Black and sold it at Leesti for 40-odd thousand.  If only they had more in stock... ;)

Nice 2 Million per hour ASP Rare Trading Tip I'd hate to call it a route as: a) It's not a route.  Tanmark to Leesti & back is not a route b) It didn't take much thought and I know it can be optimised. So you typically get 35 Onion Head + a handful of the other rare.  They will typically net you about 600k cr at Leesti. You will get about 15t or more at Leesti which will net you a variable amount, but could get your trip profit to about 700k cr for the round trip.  I can do it in about 18 minutes give or take as long as my approaches don't overrun too much and my docking goes smoothly. Leesti is Alliance and so far I haven't been scanned for illegals, so no fines as yet.  With my ASP it's 7 jumps to Leesti and 6 jumps back (cargo differences).  This route could be optimised by finding a better station one jump less in either direction.  Somebody please help if you have a better one.  Also, this can be done in a Cobra as you won't need more than 48 t carg...

News stations have lost all credibility. There is a lot of news worthy events besides the latest plane crash. First impressions are the American channels are the worst.

I'm enjoying the Diamond shaped rare trade route around Altair. I just tried to speed run this route.  Aggressive take off's and docking.  speeding through menu's etc.  I did the run excluding 39 Tauri in 33 minutes.  That included some slow transitions during the frame shift jumps.  1 or 2 of the jumps took > 1 minute in witschspace.   On the leg Rajukru to GeorgeP I made 610k cr and on the return leg made 510k cr.  A total of 1.12 million credits in 33 minutes.  that's bloody marvellous.
