[errata: june9th - i mistook the jump fatigue for the cooldown]
[errata: june10th - the map statistic is for active cyno fields, not capital jumps. derp]
TL;DR - initial set up, jump to mid, then to second mid.

protip: Mai might not be the smartest place to use as a mid.

[00:00] introduction
[02:00] the nereus cyno fit (comes to about 12m)
[03:50] i think i just jinxed myself about "i cannot dock only if i have a weapons timer" (spoiler alert)
[05:03] minorfreak gets black screen loading system (he's logged onto this station so it'll be extra long black screen)
[05:37] finally load system...still i have to deal with the initial lag i get after logging on, trying to control my user interface that freezes for a few seconds.
[05:42] now i start searching for a good spot to cyno
[13:05] this turns out to be the best spot, but i spend a bit longer confirming
[16:09] now that i've already been in space, the black screen takes much less time (although i haven't yet used the "nullVOID" overview)
[16:17] loaded system
[16:53] going through my checklist
a) checking ozone fuel usage - that i have exactly enough
b) checking jf fuel bunker for return trip as well
c) getting fleet up
[18:43] yapping away, as my cyno beacon counts down, about what range from the cyno the capitals will jump to (plus their models stretching further out)...i'm waiting usually till the timer gets halfway - or earlier if a pvper approaches.
[18:58] my first swear word. lol
[19:22] JF begins undocking procedure (black screen)
[20:00] Loki uncloaks right on top of me
[20:07] and the JF loads system in departure area, but still needs to unfreeze to boot
[20:18] able to control JF and i order jump
[21:24] now comes the weird part where i've been spamming dock, i have autopilot set to the station, and i'm praying that both of those techniques gets me instadock...
[21:37] it was at this point that muffy knew he'd fucked up
[23:00] after scratching my head for a bit i come to the conclusion setting autopilot for destination as the station beside you won't save you if destroyed (it's convenient when your cyno cycle ends but that's about it)
[23:25] also concluding MAI is the last place on earth i should ever mid from again. lol
[24:27] getting my JF's overview completely blank (no brackets no types)
[24:34] **wife enters the room and i mute, but forget to unmute**
[25:15] i check hothomouh for activity
[25:30] i check ishkad for activity (very strange bug earlier put my fleet window grouped with local)
[25:45] major-domo goes blackscreen to load system
[26:16] hereticus+majorfreak go blackscreen
[26:20] domo finishes loading but i expect a few seconds of freeze as well
[26:26] a vigilant points domo outside station plus i'm 13km from dockring ("kick out" NPC station)
[26:34] i wisely have selected a random celestial and spam warp just as my rookie ship goes poof
[27:00] domo selects an asteroid belt near the npc station in order to get a different warp in vector on the station
[27:01] majorfreak loads
[27:10] hereticus finally loads system and i quickly unfreeze & dock both of them as i deal with domo
[27:45] domo comes out of warp and i order her to dock (luckily landing inside dock ring)
[28:55] i reply to the vigilant pilot's query in local
[29:31] Majorfreak goes blackscreen (but i've loaded the 'nullVOID' overview)
[29:35] major loads system - having previous undocked PLUS the blank overview helps a tonne (and it being a rookie ship might actually help how simple and small it is?)
[29:45] i begin to set up major for a cyno spot on the very generous minmatar dock ring
[31:40] cyno bookmark set
[32:23] blackscreen again for major as i launch nereus
[32:30] take the time to respond to the vigilant pirate
[32:32] domo loads system
[36:53] i light hothomouh's cyno
[37:52] i send domo and hereticus in shuttles off to amarr
[38:42] Rain's jump fatigue has just cooled off
[40:14] i click 'undock' on mai's npc station services
[40:32] i order jump

followup:
The trip to futzchag from hothomouh was uneventful and i spent alot of the time combing through the options on dotlan for alternatives to the 1st mid i chose that cost me a cheap ship but an expensive clone.
Eventually i found a half decent system (Asoutar) to use instead of that hive of scum and villainy (Mai)
