Guild Wars : Confessions

Sounds like you didn't sleep too much iDOL ;)
You're ranting and raving a bit (probably frothing at the month too?? :D)
I actually have absolutely no clue what you are on about or what point you are trying to make in your post :eek:

Why does one take leave in December ?

If you answered the following "To spend time on holiday or to visit with friends and relatives" well you would be ... so wrong.

Why of course to to play Guild Wars till you find yourself in a totally comatose and unconscious state. That was me after yesterday , eventually passed out after my significant other requested my to come lay down if only for a bit. Woke up sporadically 3 or so times, when some inconsiderate sods decided to call me and then hang up just as my dazed and confused self reached the daft phone. But eventually woke up at 5.50 this morning so , guess what ? Time for more GW.

Man , you just got to love this game. :D

Been trading so much of late, just had no motivation for going out on missions. That's what I love of this game , I can still interact without having to go out on missions and the. Made so many acquaintances in game which is nice.

I was encouraged to try to go on for playing Guild Wars for 2 days :eek: without halt, but I fear it will cause some really hectic damage to my state of wellbeing. Oh yes I doubt my wife would approve either.

mm, still in light of my previous thoughts on establishing an ingame trade monopoly , I will soon be requiring the services of a programmer and website developer - so keep an eye out when this new opportunity arises.

Evil you must whisp me ingame , so I can add you to the trade community.

Hey that would be a cool name , think gonna create a new Character in honour of the "great and wonderful" *Patrician Lewis* :D
 
Yeah, I only started trading (aka buying low and selling high) about a week ago, and I have made about 100k. I am totally new to trading, so dont have a feel for prices yet im afraid. Will do better once I have a bit more experience.

You have a very 'understanding' other? (Suppose she takes care of real life while you play?) Oh, that didn't sound right?! :D

really just wanted to say: you write good iDOL (I'm sure you compensate the wife in other ways.)

:D

:)
 
Yes I must say ,she is very understanding indeed.

Every so often we have to go on those bribe shopping sprees, it buys me time.

*ps note to clarify * She knew I was an addict when she adopted me, hopelessly addicted to pc games. Cs Source hasn't seen me in a while now, I wonder why ?. Where has all the "skillz" gone. You just have to laugh how she and my mom compared notes on how my addiction has progressed over the New years Braai. :cool:

Well, got a whisp from evilspinach ingame , was nice to receive one from a board member, added him to my friends list.

Well, after this weekend will finally go off on missions. I have been globe trotting all the continents, never progressing very far at all. Simply , because I play a couple of missions here in NF , hop on over to Kaineng and then move onto Lion's Arch. So from now , it will be a focused approach.

Factions 1st, Nightfall next and then Prophecies. I guess I am finishing it in the order of purchase and exploration status.

Just a friendly word to others - Guild Wars (for me) , apart from playing the game and progressing is about the online interaction it's the "fun factor" .
An ingame neighbour from Alberton took me on the run from Lion's Arch to Ascalon , in about an hour and he did this just as a friendly favour. I organised him a Rurik mini Pet at a super low price after I haggled with the seller and purchased it solely based on trust and when he came online , he re-imbursed me and was very happy with his cheapie Rurik.

I also received an offer from another "femme fatale" "A/N" female character to teach me how to Solo the bosses in Nightfall, it's about sharing the knowledge. Which for my 240 hours in 50 days old character is fabulous.

So for me , it's all about the friends you make. :D


Koss " Idiot meet hammer, Hammer meet idiot."

That's it for today
Ciao folks

I wish you luck with factions if you rely on human parties. Factions looks truly dead beyond Kaineng. I was in Cavalon and House Zu Heltzer the other night during a "peak" period. I was a 3rd of the population in Cavalon, and a 5th in House :D Maybe with the Winterfest over, it may see more players...
 
hmmm iDOL = gw crazed? are we gonna read in the news papers iDOL died from playing gw non stop over xmas and new years break?
 
:mad: Sabotage I tell , Sabotage.

The gremlins have attacked my laptop - it now refuses to boot.

I bought it just last week, I was too lazy to build my computer thast i had just bought , so it was easier to play using the new laptop.

Now , I am forced to build the other computer , whilst the laptop goes in to be checked. Bugger, Bugger, and more bugger.

So now only have limited play time , at least gave me some time to go to the range and pelt the living daylights out of sdme golfballs, the first time in 3 years.

Well lotsa luck in the GW Universe, I know I promised not to buy another mini pet, but at 3k for Varesh , how could I say no ?

Later folks, this is from a friends pc, i needed my fix , just to go on and see that my GW charactersare safe.
 
roffel, u one funny sod iDOL ;)

Shame man.

Ah ... the good 'ol days when Varesh was selling for 100k :p :D
 
That is so true! After about eight hours, you wonder "Why do I have a headache? Oh yes, I haven't eaten yet today!" :D
 
True to his word , Bushi Anbu , gave poor ol Shiro one 'solid "taai" klap and that was that for Shiro and Factions. :D

Now onto Nighfall.

Oh an another thing I think there are certain others on here , whom I see, also having a 2nd home in Guild Wars. I won't be naming names , but they know who they are.

Why didn't anyone tell me about the Alliance Battle thingy, I mean really now.
Luckily for me I was invited by one of my other GW buddies. Did I enjoy it!

Using it to accumulate Balthazar and other Faction Points now , skilling out the Heros for my onslaught on the Nightfallen. :cool:

Hey EvilSpinach, thanks for the offer, managed to get through the gate of madness. We managed to get through first time. But only after Shiro smacked me a couple of times with his impossible odds and battle scars, because of some over zealous team members.

Warned the Ele Nuker and Whirling Dervish to go easy and not charge Battle Scars or step back when he has impossible odds going. Do you think they listen , nnooo . Friendly fire whacked me left right and centre.

Oh well, maybe will meet up with you for knocking Abbadons block off.

Another thing , it's gr8 having actual player monks in your team except when:

They go Afk during crucial stages of the mission,
They stand so far away from you that their names are greyed out (and that's not just because they're afk),

So I take my trusty Dunkoro everywhere. He actually performed an awesome save in the Gate of Pain mission. Our human monk ign "Jelle" something , went awol. We were taking serious flack, half the team down already and the rest going fast , I flagged him away. Then slowly rezzed everyone else, I laughed seeing him in action keeping our Necro MM alive as well. "Go Dunk!" We got through it, thanks to good ol Dunk.

Abbadon tonight and then it's off to Prohphecies , Hero's and henches here we come.

Did I tell you guys about the Hero : Dunkoro, man, you shoulda seen him lastnight. Good ol Dunk.

All tired of waiting to compile the perfect recommended group from GW Wiki.

We went into Abaddons Gate, 4 wammos, 2 Paragons , 1 Dervish and Dunkoro. Mission Completed - Masters in 12.33 mins .

"Oh we're gonna die" , was the phrases uttered when we went into the mission. Well let's just have fun whilst we crash and burn , I said.

Reminding them constantly of our strat - Right , Left , Centre, and repeat.

Everyone was so pleased at having done it , it was really awesome . More so for me , seen as I had shopped 3 books of secrets for an ave price of 13k so it proved to be an even more profitable venture.

Coming soon to a store near you , "Good ol Dunk - The Diaries of a Hero & Savant."

Triple Drop Weekend : Green Farming Lynchmob

:D Oh Yeah , almost forgot , with it being triple drop weekend, anyone out there interested in forming green farming parties.

Just add me : Bushi Anbu , would be delighted to run along.
 
... I was wondering if you guys have a particular fantasy beat IOW you read fantasy books, immerse yourselves in the sci-fi fantasy universe, or do you just play with none of that?
 
I would say , GW provides you with the opportunity to immerse yourself in a fantasy realm , similar to those that you' have always read about.

That is partly why I love it.

Better than having it in a movie, cause here it allows me to participate.

Althought I do still love my reading, vry addictive sometimes too.
