These are boring enough when you are just clicking buttons as they light up on your phone, but at least you can watch TV or multitask with something else to distract you from the tedium. To actually track these over a long time period just adds a new level to the grind.
Considering she is reporting from beyond the grave, I suspect this project might have been an amusing distraction.
I tried typing this in Man From Another Place-speak, but boy-o, is it hard.
So in plain English: thanks for sharing, Laura!
(and now I have the theme music stuck in my head all night, which is not altogether an unwelcome side effect)
And now y'all have got me hankerin' for a "d**n fine cup of coffee"...
Coop and Janeway: birds of a feather.
Could you please continue the petty bickering? I find it most intriguing.

The drop rates for Chronitons took a huge drop thanks to Shackled to the Stars. The actual drop rate in that event was 9,55%, nearly 2% less than the expected drop rate.
I noticed a big difference in Shackled between phases. I got a lot more chronitons from bonus rewards in phase 2. Phase 1 was much worse.
I noticed exact opposite, lol. Enough that i gave up going for top 50...settled for top 100 cuz all drops were so bad compared to phase 1 & early phase 2
- Actually got my 2nd and 3rd ever 1x premium portal pulls during a Skirmish, 1 in each phase (100 Honor each).
- I was top 300 Sunday morning ... but didn't play at all on Sunday and dropped to about 1100 on Monday morning ... ground my way back up to a 641 finish (oef!) ... all the while my choniton levels stayed even and I used a bunch on Monday for the grind (Thurs-Sat was done in short bursts).
- Went from 16.525 to 40.174 Honor during the event (Honor from all sources - usually during an event the increase is around 8-10.000).
Gotta love skirmishes.
I get maybe 1000 honor per 100,000 points. if lucky.
I had 1.7 million points and had more honor drops than chrons. 22k is an estimate, I had 114k in honor when I started the event and had 142 k when I ended. Which is 28k difference. Then I subtracted my usual amount of honor I get per day plus I bought some 90k packs and airlocked most of those crew so I arrived at about 22k. Last skirmish I made 18k honor but got more chrons. It all depends on what drops for you in skirmish and how long you go.
What I thought was more surprising was that I started the skirmish with 10K honour... and I finished with 42K honour! I bought my previous gold citation on Easter Saturday... and I am probably going to buy my next just a week and a half later!
Started Event with 2600 chrons
Ended Day 1 in top 300 with 2600+ chrons
Ended day 2 in top 200 with 2600+ chrons
Ended Day 3 in top 200 with 3000+ chrons
Final result: Placed 149th overall, with 2000 chrons leftover.
Obviously 2 days of Cadet chrons, and about 5 Voyages during the course of the event helped, but I hit more 300 chron and 150 chron rewards than I can count, and I kept pausing once I reached 4000 chrons, to spend on space battles to acquire more Intel.
For those who are wondering, I did not spend a single Dil for bonus rewards, nor did I purchase anything else during the event.
If I had not had life things to attend to, I would imagine I could have made top 75, from the scores left off at the end.

VP = 1.7mil (top 75 with 1.95mil total)
Net chroniton loss = 8k
Gross honor gain = 25k
All in all.... I'm quite happy with those numbers.
Just as a reference:
- Got 2 more 1x premium pulls (100 Honor each) ... excellent
- Ended just outside the top 1000 (1057), didn't play Sunday ... increased my overall Chronitons slightly, I think from 8k to 9k.
Was around rank 2800 after the Faction phase (missed sending out a bunch of shuttles).
- Went from 19.853 (Thursday, event start) to 39.340 (Monday, event end after air locking dupes) Honor during the event (Honor from all sources) ... at the start of the Skirmish phase I had around 25.000.
