About Me

In Runescape: I started playing Runescape in 2005 when a friend recommended the game to me. I played for about a year before taking a break. I then went onto creating many different accounts, and I finally settled on my main account Mattie-Yea, formerly known as Mat Dog89. In the Fall of 2008, I started a goal of getting my first skill to 99. It was, and still is Fishing. I was level 78 or 79 at the time, and I only Fished Sharks. I did this through the Winter of 2008-2009 and stopped in mid-February. I started to fish Sharks again in the Summer of 2009, reaching level 90 in just a few weeks. The xp I was getting from those Sharks were slow, so I decided to fish Monkfish to 99. Right now, I'm around 160k from 98 Fishing, and I do not plan on leveling it for awhile.

At this time, my main goals are to get my combat stats to 90; Attack, Strength, Defence and Range. I'm also working on getting 85 Slayer and 88 Summoning. My reasons for that are so I can solo TDS (once I get all the Quest points I need) and duo Armadyl GWD. I also plan on getting all my stats to 80+. For those that are already above 80, I plan on leveling to 90. My reasons for this are so that the transition from "normal player" to DIY will be easier for me. I plan on doing this once I finish on getting those skills up. My reasons for not getting 99 Fishing now are that I want my first 99 to mark when I started going DIY.

In Real Life: Well, to start, I am a 17 year old male who lives in Alaska. I enjoy gaming, chilling with my friends, watching my new favorite TV show; Glee (Imma GLEEK), listening to all types of techno music and raving. Techno music is one of my obsessions. I simply cannot get enough of it. |^_^|

My first rave was Digital 9/25 of this year. I never really went to these as the rave scene in Alaska isn't as good as it should be. I do plan on attending all future raves I can go to as Digital was defiantly a night to remember!

I will be graduating high school in 2010, after this I will be attending the Trend Setters Beauty School to be a Hair Stylist, as it happens to be my other obsession. :thumbsup:

My favorite type of techno music will have to be Hardstyle, although it is very difficult to choose as they are ALL amazing.

As I write this, I'm listening to a 2 hour mix by DJ-Sonic, Hardstylin Forever Vol 3&4, found at House-mixes.com. Check it out if you're a techno music lover as I am!

What I'm Doing Right Now

Well, right now I'm working on raising my combat stats to 90, with 85 Slayer, 88 Summoning, 95 Hitpoints and possibly 94 Magic.

After I finish those, I will be doing some monster hunting for cash that I need for skilling. I will be soloing TDS and duo-ing Armadyl until I receive around 50 or 60m.

After that, I will be finishing all remaining quests and working on getting Void, as well as some other non-tradeable combat items.

Once the above goals are done, I shall be getting 99 Fishing which will mark when I start going DIY. I will sell all non-tradeable items and exchange all coins for junk/rares. I will, however, keep a few items that will help me gather some other items that I will be acquiring. Said items will be ones that I can get from an NPC shop. For that, I will be keeping 2m in cash to help me get started.

In the time being, I will take some bank pics and some others I come across. Enjoy!
