Easter 2008, much better than chrismas.

Its Easter yet again! And guess what? The pink Easter bunny messed things up again! Hurray! So I met up with Tim to help the bunny in distress. We met the bunny and was told to find Easter eggs that were hidden in draynor, port sarim and falador. This was fairly quick, and we located the eggs under 10 minutes.



Next, we had to incubate a choco-trice egg by adjusting the heat of the incubator using water and coal. This part of the event, honestly is the one i liked most. Very fun to turn the dials to get the choco-trice eggs hatched :-p





Finally, we had to agitate the choco-trice to make them turn other monsters into chocolates with his stare. We also got turned into a bunny for this part of the event.



Well, i liked this event a LOT better than the previous one during Christmas. Hopefully Jagex can continue to make the events better for all of us :-)

More training had been done, and i managed a few more levels ^_^

Farming, as usual is among the screenies that im gonna post. I've definitely developed a love for the skill, and i can see myself getting that cape... sooner or later. Although i hope that it would be sooner. I'll take things a step at a time now, and settle my fletching, i dont want to be over-ambitious :-p















stuff achieved today: 66 farming, 79 strength, 76 attack, combat lv 94 (F2P)

The wonder of curry plants

Hey guys, much had been going on lately, with many updates such as the stronghold of player safety, and my usual training, i've been kept rather busy, explaining my recent lack of posts. Fret not, i'll try to make this one as good as possible.

A few goals had been reached within this week, the first being reaching 1400 total lv. I've always wanted to be a all-rounded player, and im still working towards that goal now :-) After reaching the 1400 total lv, i am setting my goal at 1500, hopefully to be achieved by June this year. Since i have gotten most of my skills to decent levels, i am starting to find it difficult to level them recently. To get those 100 levels, i'll probably do start working on construction and hunting. Hopefully, those 2 skills will be sufficient to get me there since i dread the thought of training summoning. I don't want to get those "extra" combat levels, since the likelihood of me using summoning in combat is very low and i don't really like the whole 'pouch-making' deal either.

Another goal i've reached is to squeeze into the top 50k farmers in the high scores list. 62 farming was the final push for me to enter the top 50k farmers, and getting to that level was made a lot faster after i got a tip from Tim about growing curry trees. Fast exp they are, and since i replant them everyday, i am able to get up to 18k exp a day, which is a lot compared to the mare 4-5k xp i used to get while growing ranarrs and marigolds. However, i am only utilizing 3 plots out of the 5 available plots since only those 3 fit into my farming rounds well. I shall try to work out another route that will brig me to all the 5 plots soon enough, though the bananas i have stocked up, used as payment for the farmers are slowly depleting. I have also had my share of bad luck lately, ranarr yields are going down, and for the first time since i have started growing ranarrs, i have had 3 plants out of the 4 i've grown die consecutively.

I finally got to try the wilderness agility course today. Two reasons why i didn't fancy the idea of risking a close encounter with the revenents before today. Reason 1 - I was simply too afraid of going there and being near those revs, just thinking about those lv 70s blast you with their icy spells that hit you as though they are lv 140 does enough to send chills down my spine. i finally found the courage to challenge those pesky revs today, apparently my courage was hidden under my pillow, haven't use it for some time now, and it was getting dusty. Reason 2 - My level fell short by 1 and i didn't like the idea of potting just to get in, i'll probably fail my way through anyway. But guess what, with 53 agility and a short while of training, i managed to gain an agility level! Hurray!

One more thing i have decided to do is to get my fletching yet another step closer to the 99 goal. I've brought a dragon woodcutting axe for approximately 2.2 million today, and hoping that it will give me some boost to my woodcutting speed on yew trees. So far, i have not yet seen a significant increase in the time i get my logs, so i am considering training my woodcutting a tiny bit higher before i go back to cutting yews. Another option i can take is to buy the yew logs off the G.E and fletch them immediately, but the only problem with this is that i'll end up making a loss since the prices of raw materials mostly add up to be more than the high alching price ofthe end-product. I'll be comtenplating on this issue and hopefully i'll come out with a good soultion. In the meanwhile, i'll be happy to consider any other suggestions that you might have.

I guess thats all for now. Till next time, see ya.















Stuff achieved today : 54 agility, 17 summoning.

Year 2,aiming to make Blessings bigger and better.

On the 8th of March 2008, Blessings celebrated its first birthday. We started out with a nice house party at Tim's house, before heading for f2p duel arena. The f2p arenas were quite boring after a while, though i managed to kill timmy once. hehe. I guess luck and prayer helped quite a lot, but hey, u cant blame me for my good luck :-p

After that, we went back to p2p fight pits, a lot of flaming happened, the target mostly tim cause he led the clan when we were piling. So we switched a few worlds and somehow there will always be a few flamers in every world 0.o But on the whole, we had a great time, and we owned many matches :-p

Blessings are one of the blessed to have survive this year, through many major updates in the game itself and a major forum problem in earlier this year, and we will be blessed to survive many years to come!

HURRAY Blessings!

Funorb - a backup in case Jagex fails its players yet again?

I've managed to try funorb out today, i have to admit that the graphics are a LOT better than those of Runescape, probably since it is less complicate to program compared to Runescape itself. Although it hosts some decent games, most of the ones i have tried are hopeless versions of others that had been improved ( or changed for the worse ). Funorb, to me is not as fun as its name suggests, probably due to it being at the beta stage, but then again, that doesnt answer for some of the "crappier" games they got up there. I have catergorized the games into 2categories.

Decent - which include chess, the orginal version without much changes , tetra link, a version of link 4, or connect 4 as it is known in other variations.

Hopeless - Hmm im not in the position to name stuff here, its up to you to find out yourself, i've ranked 3 games here.

Yet to be tried - A few of them that were less appealing

Before u start going about " a few games not being up to your standard doesnt mean the rest arent good", this is solely MY OPNION.

Other than that, i had a feeling that after Funorb is getting bigger, Jagex will lose its balance and neglect Runescape overtime, which is something i dread to even think about.

Perhaps they start to feel that Runescape isnt as appealing as it had just started? or is this a back-up in case they disappoint us a yet another bad update?

I'll let the passing of time to answer those doubts of mine.

=====================================================================

Back to Runescape, i was invited by my irl friend, Timothy Gold, to be in his 99 Strength screenshot. Although due to some errors that occured, my message did not get shown in the end. I was still really happy to be able to witness a 99, GRATS TIMMY!

Managed another few levels in the past week, pushing my total level to 1385, another 15 levels away from my 1400 total level goal, and i can sense that top 50k ranked farmer coming close too. Wish me luck :-)

Speaking of Farming, i had managed to make a little profit off it, and im sure there will be more to come. just check out my ge pic, 1.28mill isnt bad eh? And oh yeah i hated the farming minigame, too boring and repetitive after a few rounds.
