For those who started, but didn't finish, here are all the clues and their resolutions.


[+]To find M1
I always liked the old earth tale of the Monkey Hangers
If you Google Monkey Hangers' you will read of an incident that happened in the Napoleanic Wars in the Town Of Hartlepool, near Newcastle. Base is above Planet Hartlepool, in Newcastle.
My Wife (Eve) and I had a life of piracy
You will find the Base is Hostile to you and the way around it is to use the Tag (Eve).
[+]To find M2
Eve and I used to enjoy looking at the center of attention and her 4 babies
The important parts are, center of attention and her 4 babies. There is one System in which the Planet is the 'center' of attention (ie it sits right in the middle of the map and is supposedly the largest Planet in Sirius. It has 4 Moons (babies). This is in Burgundy
[+]To find M3
In my days of piracy, I always enjoyed being based in a system that allowed the most ways of egress.
There are 3 Systems with 10 ways in/out. This one relates to Frankfurt.
You never knew when you had to leave quickly.
Being a Pirate, he would to be to get to them all equally as fast (or as near as he could). The Base was below the Sun..
[+]To find M4
We liked to visit Freeport 7, before it was destroyed. Alas, we only managed it twice.
This one may have led you to S-17, but it didn't give you any idea of where to look. The actual 2 clues were Freeport 7 and twice (2x). Answer is Freeport 14 in Inverness.
[+]To find M5
Every now and then, Eve and I would holiday on a Luxury Liner. Here we would sample the finest wines in Sirius.
Some people decided this meant LL Hawaii, but the best wines come from Gallia and the LL resides in IDF (LL Belleville).
[+]To find M6
Sometimes, when the heat was especially on, I would hide in the frozen wastes.
This refers to Alaska
The problem was, the smell wasn't particularly good. But hey, those are the breaks.
Refers to Prudhoe Skunk Works (the smell = skunk).
[+]To find M7
Now you have managed to get this far. It is just a matter of putting the clues together to reach the final goal.
The first solution, to find the System was to take the first letter of each of the system where the Bases were. This actually gave you N, B, F, I, I, A. A bit of poetic licence was called for to actually only accept the F from IDF. Thus giving you N, B, F, I, F, A. Jumble them up and you get BAFFIN.
The next part was the Base Numbers M1-0, M2-9, M3-8, M4-7, M5-6, M6-0. If you took the last number of each you ended up with 098760.
This was the position of the Base in Baffin. By using /pos and knowing how the numbers work, there were only 4 solutions.
0, 9876, 0
0, 987, 60
0, 98, 760
0, 9, 8760.

The first one was the correctly solution. This put it right in the middle of the System and 9876m above the plane.

Sir, I do not think that my English skill would allow me to solve that riddle haha... but it is an amazing new type of event indeed Smile
Please, keep creating more, and maybe I will be able to solve one Wink
I might be Late to this but This looks like it was a ton of fun and I certainly hope to see more, I love this kind of puzzle solving!!!
10/10 @St.Denis Thanks for the dedication!!! This was definitely no easy feat to build. Hopefully I can take part in the next one


Sent me (Nemesis/Junker Congress a Comm? haven't received a reply in a week or more? Sorry! Post here and I'll get back to you asap!
