Good God! I'm actually level 92 smithing and half way to achieving my epic goal! Such a milestone is highly desired in any 99 chaser's journey. I can't believe I am finding myself in the same position I was all those ages ago on my quest for 99 mining. At this point I was quite confident that I would indeed make it to the finish...I can easily say this feeling has not changed. I am still smelting away every single gold ore I've mined since the living rock caverns were released, and I have
Yes congratulations to PieisEaten! Their name came as entry #1 out of my virtual magic hat! I had a blast doing this little giveaway and love the excitement it created around here.

CONTEST HAS NOW ENDED! Well I decided to make my first post of December something special. What is so special about it you may ask? It is a post to not only thank the Tip.It community for all its kindness towards me but to also give back to it as well. So to kickstart the holiday season, I'm deciding to do a little something called "Shahdie Gives Back." :mrgreen: You, YES YOU, could have the chance to get 3 months of RuneScape membership as my gift! You're probably thinking: "SHAHDI
I just happened to achieve a total level of 1337 today :D. It is a level which naturally many aspire to due to its long history of internet eliteness. In reality its still a rather poor total level but I shall still bask in the glory of this moment! After all, its only taken me 3 years to get to these amazi-cough-not so amazing heights. Ah well, I'm truly a miner and smither at heart <3. Psst I'm aware that I have scary combat gear on and it says I got a farming level. I got hooked on
I gotta need for speed! I seem to be leveling at crazy fast rates :blink:...you guessed it, I'm already at 91 smithing! I shudder when I see I have nearly 50k gold bars mined and smelted by my own hands (well err, my avatar's hands). How long can I really keep this up? Each level ticks away away like the minute hands of a clock...counting down the moments till I hit this epic 99. The familiar bitter-sweet feeling I had with 99 mining has returned with this final leg of my journey. Yet agai
I bet you're all wondering why you saw several Pikachus scampering about in people's avatars (including mine) around All Hallows Eve. I shall now recount to you the spooky tale known as... The time of ghouls and goblins was nearing as well as trick or treat. Crew decided to pull a trick of the most devious nature to befuddle our dear users. We donned the costume of our own pokemama and created a charming army of electric mice. With rallying cries of pika pika we attacked with a horrifyi
No...just no...have I really made it to the last stretch? I'm in shock - do I actually see level 90 smithing on my skills tab? I DO! I'm in a euphoria almost as great as the one I experienced when I reached this leg of my 99 mining journey. Tons and tons of gold ores were thrown into the fire in hopes of at least making it this far. Looks like it has truly paid off. To actually be able to smith a weapon that was so dear to me in my F2P days...a rune scimmy...is surreal :shock:! The last
Hey blog readers... The other night I paged through my old mining blog till morning and it brought back many fond memories. I had only just been a RuneScape player for a few months and was already enamored with the game. I had made some very dear friends who have now retired or are not as active as before (namely John Cable14 and The Foo 1000 <3:). 99 mining was a goal that seemed far off and to me it would be an endless journey that would keep me committed to playing RuneScape. I was
IT CAN'T BE TRUE! It isn't possible that I am merely 1 level away from the epic 90s...BUT IT IS! I have achieved 89 Smithing! This mad slew of smithing has caused my gold bar stack to near 30k bars...all mined by my merciless pickaxe :twisted:. The next level is getting farther and farther xp wise but my determination is just becoming greater and greater. The day is drawing near when I will don the cape of both a master miner and a master smither. I'M STOAKED! [hide=Level 89 screenshot][
It seems Halloween is mere moments away and everyone is getting into the spooky spirit! Everyone that is besides my college :(...sadly they do not allow costumes on or around the last day before Halloween. I try to dress up when I can as its an activity that is hard to grow out of :P. Last year I dressed up as a character from Cirque du Soleil by putting together a few things from my closet and applying a feather headdress to one of my favorite theatre masks. There's a chance I may catch Cir
Oh my goodness, another blog post so SOON?! Yes thats right, 88 smithing is finally mine baby! I can now smith up to full adamant yowza :shock:! I am feeling as satisfied as I did those many moons ago when I was chipping my way towards 99 mining. Though the leveling is going to get harder and harder, just as it did before, my will is almost even more strengthened than last time. I also did not know whether I would be willing to smith gold bar after gold bar in hopes of a method that would
Hey all! My leveling is going splendidly and my gold bars have finally surpassed the original amount I had smithed! If all continues to go well I may amass close to 170k gold bars by the time my journey is over...that is unless Jagex creates a super awesome smithing update that makes leveling nearly as free for me as it is now! The Living Rock Caverns have truly become my new home and there's not a rock in that place that doesn't tremble in fear when I arrive :twisted:. Ok maybe that is an e
Hallelujah! It has been done, I'm at lucky 87 SMITHING! My gold bar stack is over 10k once more and I could not be happier :grin: . I truly wonder if I can continue gathering my own gold throughout this whole journey? I think I can! I think I can! I THINK I CAN!!! Eat your heart out the Little Engine that Could! [hide=Level 87 screenshot][/hide] Chugga-chugga, choo-choo!
Hello again blog readers! As I sit here wearily smithing at a godforsaken hour of the night...I discover something very amusing. Apparently cats can snore! My cat has decided to rub it in my face the fact that not only is she a nocturnal creature but she beats me to bed every night :rolleyes:. I have to admit it is rather cute seeing her all snug up and blissfully snoozing in her bed. Friends of mine requested pictures and recordings of her sleeping habits, so I obliged them: A Picture of
Say Cheese! Hey all! Yes I'm posting another blog update already...shocking isn't it? Its nothing really smithing related I just thought this was worth a share and a laugh :lol:. Apparently Jagex has finally given us RSOF avatars (p2p only sadly). I rustled up to the photo booth and got my mug photographed. Its nice to have a face on the forums now but I can't help but find my grin a little cheesy looking: *Curtsies* Another interesting tidbit added today is the rather ladylike (or sho
You heard right! Lady Shahdie has a good reason to be Lady Happiness today cause she got 86 smithing! Ok sorry for talking in the third person but I am simply ecstatic :grin:! I had no idea that I would eat through 85 like tissue paper. My gold bars are just stacking up and I am attacking those Living Rock Cavern veins like crazy. Someone please slow me down :lol:... [hide=Level 86 screenshot][/hide] In other news, I did it...I reached the 15 million mining xp mark! Things are lookin
Hello dear blog readers and welcome to my new Tip.It blog, hosted on none other than - THE BLOGS TAB! It was hard to say goodbye to the Blogscape of old but one must eventually embrace change - especially good change! I have done a sort of slightly updated version of the first post on my old blog as the first entry of this new blog. I've changed my real life picture to a more current one (notice I'm still sporting my favorite necklace however :thumbsup:). Forum Changeover: Before I get into
Lady Shahdie here, pleasure to make your acquaintance! Some who have glimpsed my signature know I was one of the crazed hopefuls dreaming of 99 mining. Well I did manage to dream my impossible dream and achieved my epic goal! The dream doesn't end here though... I have decided for my next test of fate to wield my hammer and forge a path to the glory of 99 smithing! Below you will find a little about myself, details about my RuneScape character, and pictures of my levels along the way. [hi
