Now, how do I start this... Hello all, welcome to my blog. How cliché... So, this is my blog? Why is that a question, of course it is my blog! I will post all updates, goals, etc on this thread, you can wish me luck, or just have a nice chat here!

 

[hide=A little about me...]

My name is James, I live in Surrey, England, just south of London. I am 17 years of age and I am in Year 13 at school. I am studying Further Maths, Chemistry and Physics for my A levels and plan to study Physics or Natural Sciences at University. I play a lot of sport, primarily cricket, badminton and tennis however and usually this is 3-5 times a week.

 

I listen to music all the time, my primary interest is Alternative music but I also like Post-hardcore, rock and some pop music. My favourite bands are The Strokes, Oasis, Bombay Bicycle Club, MGMT, Coldplay, Kasabian, Bloc Party, Muse, The Enemy and Foo Fighters. Not in any particular order really, but The Strokes are definately way way way ahead of the rest. If you have any alternative bands that I might be interested in then please do tell me![/hide]

[hide=My Gaming History]

When I was very young, I always enjoyed Physics, Maths and Computers. I didn't really start playing any sort of computer game until I was 6 or 7, when I got my first game, Roller Coaster Tycoon. Looking back on this, I was pretty good considering I was very young, I could easily complete all the missions and I had full parks, custom rollercoasters and everything. I was introduced to other Tycoon games like Monopoly Tycoon and Zoo Tycoon which I also enjoyed a lot, but it was all about winning and not about design for me, so my parks were never interesting!

 

Soon after this I was introduced to my first RTS, Age of Empires. I used to think I was awesome, using cheats and everything to beat enemies, but now I think of it, I did what any child would have done. I enjoyed it but I never played it to win like my Tycoon games, just for fun.

 

Then, in late 2002, I started playing RuneScape however, it just generally confused me so I left it alone and kept playing my Tycoon games, Age of Empires and console games. Then the Miniclip craze came and everyone played various games on it, and RuneScape was released on it, everyone started playing. However I already had my account so I had a small advantage over everyone, and kept playing as the craze died out.

 

I finally got members on April 24th 2005 and as everyone does, they walk through that gate north of Falador and just explore. Pickpocketing the odd man that is scattered around, getting lost on White Wolf Mountain and all the rest.

 

At the end of 2006, for Christmas, my parents knew I played an MMORPG, and they got me World of Warcraft. I quit RuneScape and played this, I got very good at it aswell, I was in a top 50 raiding guild in the world with some top 3 kills of some bosses. I had a PvP team and we were rated 2100 which was pretty decent, better than the majority but soon after this I lost interest in WoW in general and I found Aion.

 

Aion was hyped as the WoW killer, from my standpoint, it looked very good and so I subscribed. This kept me entertained for a couple of months, but upon reaching 44 I realised this game was all about grinding, and in more so a much worse way than WoW or RuneScape. I went back to World of Warcraft and went back to one of my old guilds with a bunch of friends in it. I lost interest again and here I am today, playing RuneScape again.

 

However, this is not the end of it. I found at at my school there is a PC Crew, they were well hidden and I was well known as the "WoW Nerd" at our school. Turns out there were 20 other people playing and they all kept well-hidden unlike me, but it's what I enjoy, why hide what I'm good at? This PC Crew introduced me to League of Legends, they were all classic FPS gamers, in your face, but I've never been interested in FPS. We now play League of Legends at a very high level together.

 

However, since I'm an old WoW player, I know about Blizzard and I got into the BETA of Starcraft 2 with 4 extra keys, I gave these to my friends and this has reintroduced me to the RTS genre, which I am loving. I now own Starcraft 2 and am in most gold leagues, I'm not great but it's fun to play with friends most definately!

 

I now play League of legends, Starcraft 2 and Runescape, but I am also in the World of Warcraft: Cataclysm BETA which is great fun, however I don't think I'll be going back to WoW just yet, I want to focus on my schoolwork.[/hide]

Quick update, I'm also now stopping to farm Snapdragon Seeds, so when I'm out, I'm done, I've bought about 4k Snape Grass which is almost enough for 75 herblore, I'll buy more around the time if I need... But I am now farming Ranarr seeds so I can profit from farming still, whilst also getting decent-ish herblore experience. This means I don't have to spend 30M on getting from 70-80 and can casually work it up along with my farming! This means also that I can focus on other skills, after I've done smithing, because there are no buyables left to get to 80! So I will be mining, doing agility, doing hunter, etc.

 

Also, whilst farming I did fruit tree collection runs, in the end I've done 10 over the passed week to be able to collect 300 Papayas. I'm using these to pay for 20 palm trees which will give me a nice little boost in farming but also allows me to start collecting magic tree seeds from MTK, bird nests, whatever, and can plant these and pay with coconuts in the long run! Huzzah for self-sufficiency on some things...

 

I need to work on slayer and summoning soonish, oh well, Tears of Guthix and Lamps are doing me well so far.
