Logbook entry

Opening new log book

26 Feb 2018Mato Hawk
I'm opening up this log entry because I wanted to make a valid contest entry for the Anaconda raffle at Hutton Orbital. I doubt I'll continue writing in it, but you never know.

My name is John. I own a small fleet of privateering vessels of various sizes and operate under call sign CMDR Mato Hawk.

My favorite food is barbecued ribs.

I like listening to Arstoitir's Stoic Stare. They're a band from New Reykjavík out near Colonia. Lots of synths and heavy beats and the lead singer is really hot. You probably haven't heard of them.

My favorite ship is the Imperial Courier because they're so fast, but I also love the Eagle because of the sounds its engines make in normal space. Some of the vids I've seen of the new Chieftain make me envious though, so this might change once I get my hands on one.

I dislike the Maia black hole, because it's too small (only two solar masses??) to be a real black hole, so it's probably some kind of Aegis experiment gone wrong or something.

I also dislike CMDRs who park their T9s and T10s in the mail slot, because then I can't get out of the station without a fine. One time, I watched an Adder ram face-first into the loading bay of a T9 stuck in the mail slot and he just exploded outright, the poor bastard.

I also dislike White Dwarfs. They look like Neutron Stars but boil your ship and don't even have the good manners to give you a good FSD boost. Plus, in a Python, the BSF-coolant running to the dorsal heatsinks gets directly exposed to deuterium alpha particles from the neutron stellar wind which binds with latent CO2 (from any of the atmospheric leaks into the coolant system which Pythons are famous) and when the coolant pass reaches the thruster pre-exhaust array combines with bits of the sulfhydryl thruster catalyst to form Butanethiol particles, which are really smelly and then vent back into the ship atmosphere.

...And that's why White Dwarfs smell like skunks when you fly past them.

Anyhow, that's my 350 words. Hope I win that free Anaconda.
