4-3 and Runic

And we 5 maned 4-3! It was pretty hillarious toward the end, but it took a bit of frustration for everyone to loosen up. Once we figured out the problem with the party, well.. things just fell into place. First off all, Runic (who is not in the shot) came along for the run. Here's a little background; I met Runic in Lower Jeuno while I was looking for people needing to get CoP missions done. Apparently, he had been leading his own CoP linkshell for quite some time. Having already completed CoP himself I made the assumption that he's a decent guy with a "normal" attitude. Running on 4-3 w/ him proved otherwise. This person is the WORST paladin I have ever come across in all the times I have run into a shitty paladin. He recently did a swift belt run.. well {Hello!} why didn't you kill Gigas and Orcs on the way to Sac to lower your hate? Okay.. so I let it slide. Maybe he'll keep sneak. Nope. He agros on multiple occasions due to his stupidity and ends up basically casting Gravity on the entire party because he just sucks so much. By chance we make it 90% of the way through... he pulls the Runic card again and decides it'd be best to sit and heal DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF a doorway in which we JUST KILLED a Mummy and Lich (thank you, Cris) not 5 minutes beforehand. Anyhow.. Long story short - he dies for idk the how many'th time. He becomes angry, I call him a nub, he freaks and leaves while continuing to spam me with /tells about how much I am the nub and how much I "SUK".

So here we are in the middle of 4-3 with 5 people in the party and no paladin. "Wonderful!", I'm thinking. Well, as much sarcasm as I put into that thought, it ended up turning out as such. We made our way through Sac with no problems because all of us have 1 Fomor hate (no agro), find Old Professor Mariselle's drawer, bring him out and mop his ass up with almost no trouble. Our party setup was SAM, SAM, SAM, BLM, RDM and no one subbing ninja and a total of 3 poison potions to counter Sleepga II. Now... this just puts the icing on the cake.

Fuck Runic and fuck his poorly named arrogant mother fucking RunicLegacy LS. What on fucking earth was this fuck thinking when he named his LS? I mean.. come the fuck on! not only do you suck at paladin... but you utterly suck at naming a linkshell. Think about it, mang. This is an LS. People are going to be wearing this name over their heads for fuck's sake! And considering how much much of an ass-job you are when it comes to doing missions... {Thanks for the offer but I'll have to pass.}. Get a grip you fucking self centered twat! Oh, and before I forget, not 2 days ago Runic invited me to partake in a full alliance (18 people) Divine Might run where I was able to complete Zilart mission #14 and obtain my Bushinomimi earring. Now THAT is the icing on the fucking cake.

I wish fishing was a CoP mission


Sheesh! Hello, again! Once again, a lot has been going on. With less and less time to fish.. ; ; at least we're getting things done! CoP has been going pretty good for the most part. We've had a few fuck ups, wrong turns and small arguments; but all in all everyone is doing their part and we are moving along nicely. With 4-2 completed and 4-3 over halfway finished I can say that I am very proud of all the effort everyone is putting into completing CoP! With 4-2, we had to fight a fairly large dragon that Bahamut sicked on us after interfering w/ his plans. We did a few dry runs to see what we were up against. After everyone was comfortable and we discussed our strat it was a no loose situation. We mopped him up w/ only 1 death (the pld) that didn't even happen until the very last second of the battle. Diabolos was fun... but quite a pain. I ended up doing it a total of 3 times for different people.

In fishing news, I've reached fishing 26! And I have figured that @ 12k/stack w/ 14 stacks a day.. that comes out to 1.6mil/10days. This is good.. I should be able to have enough for a new Lu Shangs in no time. I'm still at a toss up if whether or not actually getting a new Shangs is going to be worth it... meh. I will have to decide later. As for now it's just gilz gilz gilz! Oh, and on a side note, I have reached 62 SAM^^ so far so good w/ all of that. Currently trying to get my AF gear accomplished while finding time to fish >>

Lime is going great with a fairly steady amount of members coming and going. We're now building a new group for yet a third promyvion run, with group #2 falling behind, yet to finish 2-3. I hope they are able to come up with a good schedule for everyone soon and have a chance to catch up! I've given leader over group #2 to our member Chingus, who now has the ability to post updates and schedules for his group. I figure this is going to help things stay organized and so far it's worked out great. I think he is being recognized as group leader now and everyone from group #2 is going to him instead of me for questions regarding their group times and dates. Very nice!

CoP

I've been pretty busy lately doin CoP missions with the linkshell. With group #1 currently moved onto 3-5 and group #2 about to knock out 2-3 to 3-5, I can say things are going pretty good. Though, I seem to be finding less and less time to fish. I'm gonna have to fit that damn pole in here somewhere.

For some details on the missions; we ended up going 1/12 on the 2-5 Mammet fight. Basically, there are 3 mobs to fight that all have the ability to change jobs at will. This problem was solveable by a thf w/ trotter boots kiting them around while the DDs picked em off 1 by 1. This problem was solved again the next day w/ 4 sam/nin, rdm and thf w/ trotters :P 1/1 on it that time. Hehehe. 3-3 is nothing but a couple uncapped NMs and some long walking. Easily soloable by almost all jobs @ 75. We're going to be running another 2-3 mission sometime today for group #2 that just finished promys. I'll be sure to take some better screen shots and post more specific events this time. Oh, and we ended up running into some 21-24hr NM bats while we were down in the aquaducts the first time.. ended up dropping a Chiroptera Dagger ^^ (which I won lot on). I'll probably end up offhanding this when I level Corsair >:D

limes limes limes!

So it has begun.
Lime is taking off nicely with a new forum and new members every day. We have started planning for our promys and even have some members already done but willing to help. Everyone will merge and continue together eventually. I can say that I am pretty excited for this to happen. One of those won't believe it until I see it kinda deals. But who knows... we could have something very good on our hands. You can check out the site to the right^^

In fishing news, since the last 14 stacks I got people have been trying to nudge down the prices of nebs to 9k! I've been able to slightly counter this by buying them for 9k and putting them back up for 12k^^ we'll own this market soon enough. With Meek and I putting more and more stacks on almost every day I do not think this Plextor fella will be able to keep up.

We fish with pirates.. so what?

And so we continue with yet another action packed punch you in the mouth and spit in your face fishing trip!

First and foremost, I was able to attain fishing 23! woohoo^^ before this, Meek and I had quite the round today! With three pirate attacks in a row and 2 of them spawning Blackbeard and Silverhook one after another... couldn't ask for much more excitment then that while fishing!

After Meek's night was over I started anew with someone I had met on the rides.
We attempted a Blackbeard duo together and ended up dead. Apparently, blm + whm / Blackbeard = death. Live and learn, aye? I suppose with the proper subjobs this might have been a more enjoyable story to be told.

I was able to gather a hefty 14 stacks of Nebs with 9 water clusters total tonight. This is good news because someone else seems to be onto us. Nebimonites have jumped from 10.5k to 12k in the past 24 hours(: I wonder who's responsible for this! *shifty eyes*
In slightly less accomplishing but probably more important news; lime seems to be doing okay in it's miniature stages. Having Meek and Infmamous being in the shell almost 24/7 has allowed a few of our newer members to become comfortable with keeping lime around as their social linkshell. This is good because I plan on scheduling some small activities to give the linkshell a better reason to stay active.

The begining

Helloeth, chaps!

Tonight, I began my back and forth fishing expedition between Selbina and Mhaura.

I was able to catch a nice 5 stacks of these funny looking Nebimonite before getting sores on my
palms. These tiny fellas cap @ 27 so it's going to give me time to make a decent chunk of money to set aside for my new Lu Shangs as well as skill ups on the way. Meek and I agr
ee that with these selling @ 10k/stack and moat carp @ 4k/stack, it only seems logical to fish these for gil to buy stacks of carp. Right? right. The Tarus have spoken!

As an added bonus, during the trips I also happened upon:

The rides were short and sweet with the occasional Sea Horror trying to be tough. As 2x 75blm, Leek and Meek were able to take him down without much trouble.

Before I hit the ships, I handled my immediate short in gil nicely.
I participated in 6 KSNM30
runs with a friend of mine. Copycat was the choice he had made. I
got lucky on the first run with a /random of 886. After the run, as sloppy as it was the first time around, my chest at the end proved to be worth while.
