Nicely done! How many hours did you spend in EVE Online this year? (209 for me) ---

499 Though keep in mind I’m just one of twenty plus characters who are all logged in pretty regularly. Edit to answer the following question: Top 5%. Better than I expected it to be. Second edit: Derp… looked at the wrong character. It’s actually 395 hours and top 6%. Mr Epeen 🕶 ---

Still impressive! Out of curiosity, where did 499 hours fall in terms of overall % of the player base? ---

" This year you spent **1116** hours in EVE Online, which puts you in the **top 3 %** of all players." “You got into some fights this year, and proved your mettle with a total of **363** PvP kills.
