How do you manage to read all the material? Do you use a filing system to match posts with similar topics? And so on.

(Guess I’m lucky I chose another!) I always wonder how you manage to wade through the sheer amount of text that you must be buried under in your feed reader.

Anyway, I managed to read the first 80 already, so go me!

Much respect for the perseverance!

You are up top at my list for reading in any case because of two reasons: a) I like your blog, and I think it was actually the first one I read on a regular basis two years ago or so, and b) a very practical one: “Ancient Gaming Noob, The” is pretty far up my alphabetically sorted list of blobs.

(edit: I meant blogs! What a Freudian slip when talking about EVE.)

You can be happy you took “Wilhelm Arcturus” as EVE name, and not “Ancient Gaming Noob”. I’m sure you’d lose a lot more ships during fleet operations otherwise…

Priorities!
