I don't think it's intended as a full minigame, just the mining equivalent to a more conservative form of ivy with lumberjack on the side.

That's what they say, yep. :P Considering how long they took to make up their minds about merchant clans I doubt they'll respond to this any quicker. Just introduce some form of legit in-game dicing to render all the scammers and profiteers useless.

90 Mining Couldn't sleep last night so I finished off the mining. On to smithing.

Livid farming is awesome. Good luck on your goals! :) One step at a time and each small achievement will be that much sweeter.

This. There's no shortage of low level p2p content.

I've wasted 9 years of my life (on and off) on this game. The thought of risking it... hah. Why bother playing if I'm not actually playing. :|

Pixel Art, 89-> Mining, Also: WE SAVED SCIENCE!! 71% from 89 to 90 mining. Did that while working on this pixel for the TIF pixel art contest. Was hoping I'd get 90 by the time I finished, but alas that was not the case. Dual screening is so nice! Oftentimes when I do it with windows I need to have the canvas on full, so I end up not realizing I'm being pummeled by living rock creatures. If I do win anything the prize money is going to go towards 90 smithing. Earlier this week I got Portal 2 off steam and, man, it's sooo awesome!! Beyond words, so I'll just stop. Finished both the co-op and single player. You should get it. Thinking of playing Witcher seeing as how the second is coming out next week and a friend keeps raving on about it. I couldn't get past the beginning the first time due to it's incredibly low start. We shall see. EDIT!!!! Finally found a use for that second post I've had reserved. A place to put all my pixel art past and present. Not sure why I didn't think of it earlier.

I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE!! :shades: Here's my entry. A personal best I think. These things take such a ridiculous amount of time to do. ._. Haven't decided whether or not I want to resize it for a sig for myself or give it away or something. /shrug! Kudos to C14 for keeping pixelling alive on these forums. I miss the old days when the Gallery was more active. I might stay a while and make a few more of these this summer if I manage to get faster at it. :P Edit: Man, I wish I'd done this for the dg themed RS gallery earlier this month, maybe I'll send it in anyways.

Pretty sure I trained farming as the first thing I did since that was the reason I went p2p :P

Mid-2002 for me. Still chuggin' along. Edit: The fact this topic asked for 2001 got lost to me somewhere, when other years started appearing, hehe.

Ah I see. I tried the pencil tool out and it's almost the same. One slight difference is that sometimes when you're drawing a curve on win7, it automatically removes a few pixels to make it smoother. But only if you draw it in one quick motion. Stole this from Chaos' pixel guide to illustrate what I'm talking about. It's hardly noticeable and it doesn't remove all the errant pixels, but interesting nonetheless. I use Graphics Gale anyhow :)

Oh, wow. You can't pixel in paint anymore? ._o That's a bit disappointing. Still toiling away at my entry.

Just finished my rough sketch. Will start on it tomorrow hopefully. I could use some extra cash. :shades:

2222 Total, 95 Magic, 93 Constitution, Livid Farm, Hati Gloves Seeing as I've been gone for months I still had to burn up the double xp from the Hati gloves from way back when. I've been doing Livid Farm for some sweet magic xp and new spells. Got to 95 magic from high 94 with the gloves and still have 17% left to burn. Repair rune pouch is a godsend for runecrafting and tele north ardy is pretty awesome if you don't have ardy cloak 4. I decided to use my one time refund for my ring of kinship to finally purchase a chaotic weapon. (I know, at 92 dungeoneering it's a bit late, but I've been doing other purchases first.) Went for Rapier solely to do frost dragons and wow are they ever nice, especially since nature runes tanked in price and I haven't had time to repair my bank after 99 construction. Anyhow, I'll probably continue doing Livid Farm for a while considering the decent farming xp it gives, with some frost dragon trips every once in a while to restock my rune supplies. I think I might decide to wait until I get the funds for 90 cooking and smithing... and probably 90 mining... before doing another run at 99 dungeoneering.

80+ Skills, Capes and More! Mmm, it's been a while. Took a several month long break from RS, bounced around some other MMOs: returned to EVE Online for a month, checked out the new stuff in the Cataclysm expansion. Bonus XP came and went in RS, but I wasn't motivated to use it to the maximum effect. The recent new capes made me want to finish getting 80+ for the milestone cape. Logged on to grab my classic and vet's cape as well. Snazzy. I need to decide what my next steps should be. Continue 99 Dungeoneering? Checkout the new updates and quests? Go for 90+, and part of it... find out how to drudge up the millions needed for herblore and prayer? /shrug

92 Firemaking + Inferno Adze (Before Deadline) I pretty much followed Tip.it's beacon guide to the letter. Lunar, trollheim teletab, lumberyard scroll, goblin village orb, everything. Pretty sure I had plenty of time to spare. Be sure to bring multiple doses of super restores. Will probably need to do it again once pking comes out for the extra rwards, though I'll wait a while before doing that. Anyways. It's 4am. Magicka is awesome. I'm going to bed. Night

91 Firemaking I believe I'm two days ahead of schedule or something. Been doing it west of GE, forward and reverse. I've been watching Firefly while I firemake. And playing Fallout 3 in between. Crazy game has me stumbling into a town I hadn't passed the first time. I didn't expect things to diverge from my first (incomplete) playthrough so soon. Cool stuff indeed.

90 Wrist Straining Firemaking I'm on schedule. Also 2nd of 13 90s In Other News: Started playing the Witcher, GTA IV, and Fallout 3. I'm pretty sure juggling them all won't be as fun as playing each individually. We shall see which one I shall finish first. Though I really want to finish a playthrough of Fallout 3. Club game's D&D characters hit level 12, booyah.

Grats on 99 bowmakin'!

89 Firemaking I despise this skill. In other news: Finished downloading The Witcher. Think I might start Fallout 3 soon. Bah. So many games, so little time!

Apologies for the double post, but I couldn't find the delete button if it exists... so I'll just add more stuff here. New Goal: 92 Firemaking Before Wilderness Apprx. 1,600 maple logs burnt per day. Aiming to speed 92 fm up to avoid pkers. Wish my wrist good luck. Day 1: Day 2: Day 3: Day 4: Day 5: Day 6: Day 7: Day 8:

77 Herblore I've started doing Shattered Hearts again and am keeping a log of it in my second post. 3 more Herblore levels needed for 80+ all skills.

84 Farming I'm going to have to start planting more expensive trees eventually. 84 farming allows me to plant lycopus and make strong melee potions within Daemonheim. I've gotten quite a few herblore lvls from strong magic potions, actually, so I'm hoping this is willprove even better.

87 Mining 87 Mining has been reached, and I realize now that I have passed the 2200 mark. Mining gold in LRC for now. I intend to either begin cooking or return to dungeoneering once I get into the grind of the new school term, though I might end up with 90 mining first for the hell of it. Mining, fishing, and woodcutting practically level themselves sometimes don't they. My calquats have been growing slowly lately. That makes me sad. :( I've kind of started to do herb runs again. In other news: The economy in EVE Online is as competitive as people say it is. At the busiest trade hubs, I have to update my trade orders every few minutes to keep up with the competition. No wonder they consider trading a form of PVP. Super Meat Boy is becoming increasingly difficult, though still really fun. I just suck at platformers. Still haven't started playing Fallout 3 even though I have it on my computer. There's just so much stuff to do! I'll put more interesting stuff in the blog in the future. Bah. Algorithms... *sulks off*

90 Fishing I gots da 90 fishing. Been fishing cave fish for a while. Too lazy/sick to do bork, farm runs, or dg lately. I need to get back to those really soon. I did the Hati thing, that was pretty quick. 12 more skills to get 90+ in. Gogogo. In other news: Been playing some eve online and super meat boy. Eve's new char creator is pretty impressive and super meat boy is super fun. :)
