A New Record for Exploration Data



Endurance Exploration has gained another first place win on the Exploration Squadron Leader board. A massive thank you to all those CMDRs who contributed to the Tea Tour, especially those who contributed right to the very end of the season.



It seemed like a very long season but we got there in the end with a total of 38,946,141,805 points. It has been reported in certain areas that the number was 33 billion but the record has been confirmed on the FDEV forum. Very little of the data had been gathered before the season started. Once the 11th September start arrived, the squadron went into action, although there were some distractions caused by fighting a Titan and the arrival of Powerplay 2.0.

The final total of 38.9 billion points broke the squadron’s old record of over 17 billion points set late last year, and also broke the post Odyssey record as confirmed to CMDR Dirk Hatch on the FDEV forums. The secondary aim of the Tour, after securing the top spot, had been to gain as many points as possible.

A huge thank you to Cmdr Flury (suffolkman) for organising the tour.
