Hello dear blog readers! What can I say? Im on cloud nine! Not only am I nearing 93 smithing but several other delights just happened to walk by my way. Those of you who read my last entry may remember I posted a video on my musings regarding the strange power. I was more than happy with the few hundred views it got and ran off down to the caverns to get back to mining up some gold for smelting. A few friends who saw the vid pmed me and encouraged me to tweet it to Jagex. I didnt think much of it but went ahead and tweeted this ominous phrase to them: A day or so went by and I laughed at some of the comments, chatted with friends, and gave my cat her twice hourly massages. Before heading to bed I read up on the Orb of Oculus oncemore and dreamed of future videos with amazing camera angles and close-ups. I woke up the next morning and continued about my normal routine. Morning slipped into afternoon and I rolled by some of the chats I normally visit. Immediately I was informed that the crazy folks at JagexACTUALLY RETWEETED MY TWEET! I was flabbergasted! Immediately I opened up a tab and loaded YouTubemy eyes literally widen to see the damage O.O. While Im certainly no Excl of videomakers nor do I expect any sort of mass stardom to ever happen to meits nice to even have over 5 people interested in the videos that I make XD! One thing that I must say though, is how much you people out there really rock. Any endeavor Ive taken regarding RuneScape has always been so well received. I never expected 2.5 years ago when I signed up to play this game that Id be making so many friends along the way! While my MMO repertoire is a small oneout of the few that Ive tried, I can certainly say RS has the nicest community out of all of them. So as I have done in entries beforeoncemore Id like to saythank you guys. Pics of Insanity!

:thumbup: That soon??? Oh dear god, I think I'm going to cry :grin:!

Kingdom Hearts Music <333333 "Dive into the Heart" I think? You are correct sir :^_^:!

I think Ive stumbled upon several clues which lead to this mystical force of old. I have documented my findings in this vid. Share your musingswhat can we divulge about the strange power in these final fleeting moments before the update? Smithing Update: Im finally at 60k bars, I couldnt be happier :D!

Just to give you a rough idea of when it may be :).

If this item equals eat-your-heart-out-Mr. DeMille-closeups I will be in filmmaker heaven :twss:...

- A final date will be available after one week (so the 24th for sure and then some time after that TBA) - Not planned yet - will depend on the applications received and how many - Richard P. Astley Oh, so you like getting rick roll'd? lol Who doesn't ;)? Keep the apps coming!

Good luck all :), come and join us on the purple side. We have cookies!

Well folks...as I mentioned in my last entry, I had been put up for auction in the annual TET Slave Auction. From the moment I consented to this auction I had a feeling I would majorly regret it. It seems, I was certainly correct. My master ended up being fellow Tip.Iter and clanmate Crazykid (SS4Alex on the forums). Crazy was a little secretive about his intentions but gave me the clue that my task was definitely "going to suck." I was tormented for the days approaching our meeting time with this thought and had several nightmares about what it could entail. When our meeting time finally came, he revealed to me that he wished that I would sing a song. After deliberating with my other clanmates, he ordered that I sing one of the most cherished oldschool cartoon theme songs of all time...Pokemon! All I can say is...I hate my life.

What a bash that was! Loved the mega pickaxe drop party :lol:...congrats again Mr. Hedgehog.

Nice of Jagex to be in such a holiday spirit :). I truly am itching for that new skill to come in 2010. It feels so close yet so far away...

Upon my return from Vegas, I find myself shackled up and put up for a slave auction :o! More on that in a bit So Tip.Iters, I went to Vegas, and had a truly unforgettable trip. So wonderful that I feel like blogging it for your reading pleasure :D (hears the groans of those who hate TL;DR entries). So without further ado I present to you: Shahdie Goes to Vegas! After a long and arduous drive we pulled up to the MGM Grand among a boulevard of twinkling lights. The night was young so we were eager to take a walk on the strip as soon as we checked in. After getting our room keys, confirming our Ka tickets, and having our bags taken up to our room, we headed out the door into the cold night air. I could truly tell why they call Las Vegas the city that never sleeps. Everywhere you looked was illuminated and full of action. There was only one little minor complication to this evening of fun and wonderIT WAS FRIGGIN WINDY! We had no clue that we had arrived on the eve of high wind conditions. Due to this, we were able to snap very lovely wind swept photos like this one! (Check out the height on my hair!) When the sun started peeking through the evening sky, we decided to head back to our hotel room. I plopped myself down on the queen size bed and fell asleep the minute I shut my eyes. The next morning I woke up to already find that room service had delivered our continental breakfasts. The portions were so generous that I hardly finished what they put on my plate :P(mmm the pancakes) After breakfast we sort of lazed around the hotel area, went outside to see the iconic MGM lion statue outside, and took this picture. Once the day slipped into night again, we anxiously waited outside the Ka theater. We werent left outside the theater doors for too long and were soon escorted by an usher to our seats. The moment I sat down I was startled when I noticed there was physically no stage! There was just an empty abyss and the sounds of whispered voices emanating from it. Shortly the lights started to dim and finally a stage emerged from the dark chasm. Two swordfighters were engaged in graceful and elegant combat. And the restwell I dont want to spoil it but I will give you a taste of what I saw. Picture witnessing 10-15 spearmen twirling their staffs in mesmerizing choreography. Imagine a sea battle of epic proportions on an 1800 lb boat piloted by the performers own strength. Envision a matrix-like martial arts showdown occurring at a 90 degree angle. Conjure up your definition of a wheel of death and be surprised to find out that you were wrong. When the performance finally ended, I was winded by what I saw. Ka had soaked me in like no other Cirque du Soleil ever had. If any of you out there have written down a bucket listI seriously advise that you add seeing Ka as one of the things you must do before you die. What I just saw will stay with me for the rest of my life. During our last night in Vegas, we toured the strip one more time for some fresh air. It was not as windy as the night before and we were able to truly enjoy our final evening. I whipped out my camera one last time to get some snapshots of the amazing places I had seen. Phewwhat a trip it was. [hide=Vegas Pics][/hide] Shahdies a Slave! You heard right! The folks at TET have dragged me by the ankles and put me up for bidding to all you Tip.Iters out there :(. Nahthe truth is they asked me nicely if I wished to participate in the famous Tip.It Annual Slave Auction and I gladly accepted. Im a bit nervous to see who my final master will ultimately turn out to be. What if someone takes me up on my offer to grant them my most sacred possessionmy tiara?!

Come one, come all! Come see the Amazing Shahdie juggle pickaxes with the greatest of ease! The above is just a little fun graphical glitch that is achieved with the candy cane spin emote from A Christmas Warble. For an explanation of how to achieve it see this. I got inspired to do this since it looked incredibly fun and as homage to the amazing performance I'm about to see...you guessed it, I will actually get to go to see Cirque du Soleil's "Ka" in Vegas! It was one of those, you have to wait till the last minute to be informed if there are tickets for you kind of deal. I'm so happy it worked out :D! In other news, I hit over 19 million mining xp today! It was certainly a nice early Christmas present and I am eager to reach 93 before I head back to university. I may even get to 60k bars, perhaps 70k very shortly. So don't be surprised to see me making countless Edgeville furnace runs on world 99 these next few weeks. Well, thats it for now...I wish all of you a very fun and happy Holiday. See you after Christmas Tip.It!

Another miner I see, ah it warms my heart <3:...lovely achievement. 10/10

Good question(s) :P! I am tempted to use the stock for crafting however, I am aware of techniques other than gold jewellery making that I may be more interested in. I probably will sell off the stock and invest a bit into my very weak prayer level as well as disperse with other stats. But I can assure you, crafting though a desirable 99, is not my next goal...and I do have one already planned. And I certainly will keep your special advise in mind when I pack for Vegas :D...

Love the "legally insane" bit :lol:...you had me floored at that part of the video.

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 yet to tire of it. Thanks to this, I am well over 50k gold bars smelted. I'm wondering if I'll ever feel like switching over to addy plates and be done with this affair. Guess I haven't reached that point just yet :P! Onwards to glory I go! [hide=Level 92 screenshot][/hide] In other news, I may be heading to Vegas soon with my family for my Christmas vacation. We've managed to find a very nice deal on MGM Grand reservations along with tickets to see Cirque du Soleil's "Ka". I've heard so much praise of "Ka" and how it is a life changing experience to see. I was lucky enough to see "Varekai" several years ago, and believe me, it did NOT disappoint. Hopefully all will go well and I'll be able to go :)!

Glad to have my spoonful of sugar back again :^_^:. Nice to see you've come back to TIF again sweety!

Congratulations =D>...wield the modhammer well!

They pair pretty well with the Living Rock Caverns if you ask me :thumbsup:. Using it on the gold I've mined for level 82-91 smithing...he he he. The hammers are great don't get me wrong, but these still serve quite a nice purpose for smithers and of course crafters alike.

Yes, it gives you 56.2 exp per smelt rather than the traditional 22.5 exp :).

As tempting as that may be I think it would make people feel worse rather than better :P...especially the person who came up as #2! Can't wait till Mr. PieisEaten returns to find his little holiday gift he he he.

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. I really hope you all have the best holiday season. Remember to give, give, and give some more come this Christmas... HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

So it's a free 135K (- nature cost)? Apparently so!
