Loam

'Cause your character has huge hands in that pic. :P

I always pictured Kim as a blonde...and with smaller hands. :?

Personally, I don't think I want to go back to the post free trade return BotScape that was 2011. I really don't mind the EoC. Maybe it's because I'm F2P and our options are limited to a handful of abilities for all combat styles, but I don't find it all that confusing anymore.

Dude, people are still complaining about Dungeoneering. :P

Lo, I am returned! Behold, my faithful flock, for I bring tidings of great joy that shall be to all 'Scapers! For while those with envy in their eyes and evil in their hearts have tried for the past week to prevent me from sharing the wisdom of my adventures with you, their efforts have been, ultimately, fruitless. I once again stand before you with tales of fantastical places visited and levels gained. Much praise and thanks to the crewbies who put up with my repeated account problem reports and did their best to restore my ability to post within my own blog (how's that for a weird glitch). May the gods of fortune smile upon them and bring them many rare and powerful SoF prizes! But now, brothers and sisters, your long wait is over! I give you... Kaida's 4 Month Update Part 2!: The RuneCrafting Competition After completing the Crown of Seasons event I decided that I would get the rest of my skills in the 80's up to 90, with the long term goal of getting all my non-combats up to 90 eventually (why do I keep setting these ridiculous goals for myself? :?). With that in mind, I climbed the Wizard's tower and once again entered the technicolor world of Runespan. I gained one level, and then it was announced that the TFS skilling competition for July would be RuneCrafting. How serendipitous! :grin: As I'm sure you all know, a skill comp is often accompanied by a level up image dump and this one is no exception. So here we go: [hide=RuneCrafting 87] [/hide] [hide=RuneCrafting 88] [/hide] [hide=RuneCrafting 89] [/hide] [hide=RuneCrafting 90] [/hide] [hide=RuneCrafting 91] [/hide] [hide=RuneCrafting 92] [/hide] As you can see, I went well past my goal of level 90 but it was all for a good cause: my beating the pants off everyone else! :twisted: Yes faithful followers, I finally won one! \:D/ I finished the comp with over 2.9M xp gained, more than double that of second place. :shock: ...okay, so there were only three of us taking part, second place started halfway through and third place only did GOP for the entire time, but I still won, dammit! I can proudly say that for one brief, shining moment I was better than two other people who really didn't try. That's some Charlie Sheen level winning right there. :lol: Once the comp was over, I started gathering supplies for getting Fishing and Crafting to 90 (DG really doesn't need supplies, and I didn't plan on doing it right away anyway). Feathers were easy, but the costs for making hard leather boots (hereafter known as hlbs) had begun spiking so I knew that by the time I was finished with them, I would have to sell them at a loss. Fortunately, I was able to buy 40k hard leather and 40k nats before the prices on everything really spiked, so, worst case scenario, I can still simply high alch them for a 30gp profit. :thumbsup: I'm still plugging away at Smithing, and I'm currently a little over 100k xp from 95 Magic. I'm also going to be slowly working on Crafting where I have time, and Fishing is going to be coming courtesy of the Battle of Lumbridge...but once again, I'm getting ahead of myself. Tune in next time for part 3 of my epic update series: "The Battle of Lumbridge" or "War! Good Gods Y'all!".

Final warning you guys. Regardless of what any Jmod or RSOF forum mod says about whether it's enforced or not, mulitlogging and account sharing are still against the rules of RuneScape and are therefore against the Tip.It rules as well. Further discussion of such will be treated like any other discussion of rule breaking activities.

And completely undermined the legitimacy of the race to 99. I hope they wait at least until someone gets 99 before they allow lamps to be used.

For the record, until they officially change it multilogging is still against the rules as far as Tip.It is concerned.

I can kind of believe that they've only been developing this since February. At this point it seems to be nothing but a retread of RuneSpan, with F2P-ish xp rates. I hit my cap of level 5 in about 20 minutes this morning, so I guess I'm done with it until the new skill comes out.

Sorry everyone, I've been having problems with my blog the last couple of days. I haven't been able to see any posts, let alone make new ones. And it was only this one topic. I was able to view everything on the forums except my own blog, it was really weird. But it seems to have been corrected now, so I should be able get part 2 of my update posted sometime today. A very big thank you to whichever crewbie(s) fixed this for me. :thumbsup:

Nazis annoy the hell out of me. Especially Illinois Nazis. I hate Illinois Nazis.

Watched The Score and The Da Vinci Code last night, both great movies. I've always thought The Score was seriously underrated. Robert DeNiro and Edward Norton (who's usually underrated) are brilliant, playing off each other perfectly in a cat and mouse game while planning a big heist in the Montreal Customs House. Angela Basset and Marlon Brando really bring the secondary storylines to life with just the right bits of emotion and tension added to the main plot. It's a little slow at the beginning, but never feels like it's dragging; the pacing and atmosphere are great. I highly recommend this one. :thumbup: I'm sure everyone is familiar with The Da Vinci Code. Tom Hanks (who's one of my all time favorite actors, ever since Bosom Buddies when I was a kid) rarely disappoints, and this is no exception. Now, I don't believe in the whole world-wide-cover-up-concpiracy thing, but it's an interesting story with just enough actual fact to make you want to believe. And in the end, isn't that the goal of every movie? To make the audience believe it's real, or could be real? It's a fun movie to get lost in for a couple of hours.

@Ginger - For the record, new free accounts do have trade restrictions until they buy membership at least once. Not arguing any of your points, just clarifying that one.

Lime

We did...for about 3 weeks. <_<

*That* I would be willing to pay money for. :P

Finally had time to get the quest done today, and I really enjoyed it. The storyline was good, the puzzles weren't too complicated and the boss fight was challenging without being overly difficult. Overall, an excellent rework. :thumbup: What is it with all the titles recently though? I've now gotten 8 new ones in the last two weeks, and I haven't bought any of the BoL ones.

[hide] It's not a typo ;) [/hide]

Yeah, I just found that myself in-game. It appears the RS Wiki info isn't totally correct. My bad. :oops:

The Lumbridge/Draynor tasks are F2P, as are the Burthorpe/Taverly ones. ...well, most of them. ;)

Put your mouse over the compass icon and click on the flag icon that comes up. This will bring up the Hero Interface screen. Just click on the 'achievements' tab, which has a list of all the current tasks for your area. A full explanation can be found here: http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Achievements
