There were people in Newcastle last night! The fact that I actually noticed that goes to show how unpopulated the system is...260k from the Leeds jumpgate to the planet by the IMG base...yes, trade lanes, but, even so, it still takes forever to get there (mainly the final lane from Scarborough to South Shields). Downscaling it might make it a lot more frequented...one has to wonder if the crew of the Grimsby even realises they are at war...
