  1. So you joined to show this? I don't appreciate rushers, why insult him after killing?

    where does he insult him

     

    Original poster states "Gf" in the picture, and also shows a derogatory opinion of the player losing a lot of items. Although not necessarily a direct insult, it's very much implied.

     

    Although some people get their kicks from making others loose things - I'm not one of them. Granted, congratulations on the kill if it was you (although I see now it doesn't seem like it was) - but I lack respect for you with the attitude towards it that you've taken. ;)

  2. Oh I'd definitely agree with this. The walking to and from lectures, tutorials and the likes, going out shopping etcetera all really adds up! It's great! :P

     

    Funnily enough though, in terms of food it's not all as bad as I thought it'd be! I do a lot of home-cooking and i've managed to afford some pretty decent meals and salads, even on a budget of...~£4 a day? <_<

     

    Albeit, I don't go out drinking a lot, yet. 1 and ½ months to go until I have that privilege! I think alcohol really makes the costs bump up, something I'll have to try and avoid if I'm to continue managing reasonable meals! :)

  3. I like that we prove ourselves vaguely useful at chanting in this quest and that we have the prospect of elund trianing/treaching us more danlged there

     

    That's what I thought too - could be very interesting. I had the prospect of even possibly different teleport locations for the crystals, namely quick access to the Temple of Light, although I doubt we'll see that. :)

  4. Anyone wanna quick us a quick overview of the quest and what happens? Throw in some spoiler tags too?

     

    Here's an image of the conversation with the Elven-Scribe about the events during the quest, also included a transcript alternative rather than a huge image.

     

    Note: This image and transcript contains spoilers about the quest events, if you don't want to see anything relating to this quest - don't read it!

    [hide=Conversation Transcript]Gwir: So the Temple of Light's defences are active - it is secure and the mourners are weakened without them even knowing it. What happened next?

     

    Kawoei: Arianwyn called for me once again. Thorgel, a dwarf I met in the temple, had sent word of the temple releasing some sort of energy.

     

    It was clear Arianwyn knew this was going to lead somewhere, so, after a few tasks, he was disguised and we went to investigate together.

     

    Gwir: Where did this investigation lead?

     

    Kawoei: Well, with Arianwyn's insight, it led to me being energised in a similar way to the crystal I used to restart the temple's defences.

     

    Gwir: And this was safe?

     

    Kawoei: I survived, if that's what you mean. The energy wasn't lethal, but it did somehwat...transport me?

     

    Gwir: Transport you where?

     

    Kawoei: Into the light itself. The elves who built that temple must have been powerful, indeed. There was a whole other section in there with more light switches.

     

    Gwir: So what did these switches do?

     

    Kawoei: After I had figure out how to activate the switches, I finally managed to open the massive door in the room. It led to a corridor, which had unfortunately been the victim of a large cave-in.

     

    Gwir: Was this corridor still within the light or was it in the real world again, so to speak?

     

    Kawoei: A great question. Either it was still within the light or it served as (a) bridge between the Temple of Light and somewhere else.

     

    Gwir: What makes you think that?

     

    Kawoei: A body - there was a body in there. It was a dead elf messenger who must have perished in the rockslide. The report that he was carrying is where I learned of Prifddinas's fate.

     

    Gwir: This I have heard; everyone is talking about it! The revelation that the city was reverted to crystal form...an entire city!

     

    Kawoei: Indeed, and right now there are miners working to clear that cave-in so we can work towards restoring the city, once all threats to it are removed.

     

    Gwir: That was great, thank you so much. I think that has filled in all the gaps. I'd better get to writing this all up properly. If you ever need a refresher of what's happened, I'll happily tell you everything that's happened.[/hide]

     

    Gives you an understanding, without going into too much detail, hope that's helped. ;)

  5. Done too.

     

    Did some really stupid things otherwise I'd have beaten you =P

     

    (Forgot to sing in crystal first time, forget death talisman so I ran to GE to buy one, then realised I didn't leave the door unlocked, also spent about 10 minutes running around trying to remember my way around the temple).

     

    Good but simple quest.

     

    Hehe, I bet! :^_^: Only thing I did was forgetting the New Key for the door...twice! :P

     

    Agree with you completely though, simple quest - nice fill in for the story, keeps the interest going. Looking forward to Mourning's End III now definitely.

  6. I picked up an old AV-Switcher box from a friend a couple of years ago, did the trick perfectly for connecting any 3-pinned (Red, Yellow, White) appliances to a monitor. It had a Monitor-Input (VGA), and 4 other inputs for those 3-pinned appliances, Xbox included, and also had a port to connect the box to your computer, getting rid of any annoying cable-changes. Was very useful!

     

    Can't find a link for any around though, which is a bit annoying. Came in handy for lots of things so I'm glad I picked that up rather than just an Xbox cable, I like to steer clear of Microsoft anyway, bit dodgy from my experience. Maybe a local-electronics store could help you out?

  7. This is an outstanding achievement - I hold a lot of respect for something like this! :^_^:

     

    You've made me take a look at my account, my playing style and attitude towards this game and I'm seriously considering restarting and continuing my old account. I did try to go for an account like this before, I hadn't heard of them being called DIY accounts, I referred to it as self-sufficiency.

     

    I'd love to go back to that account, I think it would be a far more fulfilling feeling and I'd certainly respect the game so much more and everything in it.

     

    Are there any chats / clans that you know of that are primarily aimed at DIYers? I'd love to look into this more... ;)

  8. Bumpity! :^_^:

     

    I'm now down to ~68k experience to 99-Farming via Vinesweeper. I didn't want to rely on a Calquat growing in time to get the 99 tonight so went all out to make sure it's just Magic trees that need to grow! :)

     

    So, given that - back to Agility now!

     

    Edit: w00t! Got 99-Farming this evening, blog's been updated, due to a stupid mishap didn't get any screenshots, but may get some off some videos two great friends recorded. Thanks again to everyone that came, was great to see you there! :^_^:

  9. Congratulations on 99 Defence, lovely achievement! :^_^: Good luck with all your goals.

     

    Oh, and for the drop-down thingy, I believe you're referring to a hide tag, you can do it with the following code:

     

    [hide=Name of Hide Tag]
    Body of Hide Tag - What you want in it goes here!
    [/hide]
    

     

    That will give you this:

     

    [hide=Name of Hide Tag]

    Body of Hide Tag - What you want in it goes here!

    [/hide]

     

    Again, good luck and good to see another player back! :wink:

  10. Had a pretty great day today, got a lot done with Agility, and am now only 241k experience from 99-Farming, w00t! :^_^:

     

    As such, I've planned 99-Farming for tomorrow evening, the details of that are now at the top of this blog. Anyone is welcome to come along if they want to, there won't be any big party but the more the merrier, so feel free to drop by! :)

     

    99-Farming almost achieved!

  11. And dont forget an Anti dragon fire shield you will be passing Brutal Green dragons

     

    I always found the Anti-Dragon shield to be fairly pointless when I did it, using Protect from Mage seemed to be adequate enough. I guess if it's the first few times though, or your particularly worried about hits, taking one's a good idea?

     

    Edit: Beat to it! :^_^:
