Looks like this thread has slowed down a bit.
Hi! I'm back, for a quick visit anyway. How has everyone been? I officially retired back in Jan., now deep into the Honey Do list. Remodeling our 2nd bedroom/den, new floor, sheetrock, and ceiling. Followed by new windows, replacing the ones that came with the house back in the 30's. Still collecting Goth's almost daily.
Take care all! Catch me later.
Some how I had missed this thread.
At 6:00 pm, Central Time, Christmas night 2005, I hit the 'Install' icon. Thanks to dial-up, I started a character 26 hours later. I first entered Ascalon and wandered around, getting a feel for how to control my Warrior, Perkunas I. Then I went out the gate and waited 2 1/2 hours for that area to load. By about midnight, I was pretty well ticked with the lag, long time loading the zones, and dieing constantly, I shut it down for the night. 3 or 4 nights later, I got back on and things went a little faster, almost too fast. I acquired my secondary, did a short bout of PvP, dieing several times, killed a ranger boss, and wound up in an ugly area. Long story short, level 3, 4 skills, around 30 gold, in my starter armor & starter sword, no shield. After getting my behind spanked over and over outside of Ascalon(unaware of the henchmen), I logged off for a couple of days. Next time I logged on, I created a female ranger, Honey Dew. I stayed in pre for awhile longer than I had with my first character. Level 6, had all her skills for primary and 2nd, R/Me. , the upgraded armor, and a better bow, and closer to 200 gold. A couple months in, I deleted those two characters and and created 3 others, another warrior, an Ele, and a Monk. All were to help the guild I was in, in their GvG events. My Monk, Madam Theresa, became very popular during the monk strike in Thunderhead Keep. One of very few that would do that mission. Probably more info than you all wanted to read. I have gotten a lot of good play out of this game. I have taken short breaks here and there, but I still spend 2 to 6 hours a week playing. Some time in pre and some in post, not too much in the other chapters.
Ele - Lady Firecracker, Ranger - Dawn of the Mists, Warrior - Hawthorne Bloodmoon

Bread or Boston?

Does anyone have a Factions character that has the quest Mayhem in the Market available, that I can go along with to open that outpost?

saved at last!
Took a stroll down memory lane this A.M. Listen to many songs/groups from Abba to ZZ Top. Hung around for a few from Boston and Eagles.
Off topic go quiet? Oh my! Hello all. Stopped work on my ark and decided to pay a quick visit here. Ark? you ask. Went from 4 in deficit from start of March to 6 in surplus to now. lol Grass is green and needing mowed, flowers starting to show their colors.
Take care and catch you all later.
Hello all! Has been some time since I have been in here. Hope all are doing well.
Enjoying the "early" spring, but watchout, winter always gets the last laugh. Been very dry this winter, only a couple of snows that put a little water on the yard. Hoping for a wetter spring, for the flowers.
Still collecting gifts from Nick Sandford in pre on a daily basis. Working on stack #13. Farming Nick's items an hour or two here and there.
Take care. Be back soon(er or later).

Are you staying safe up your way cosy, with all the storms near you? Had a near miss at our old place in the country. Lots of trees down, but all the structures are still standing.
I type a responce to the Word Association thread, click submit post, the screen "acts" like it posts, but does not update the thread. Everything seems fine in the other threads, just not WA.
Have played in the waters of both coasts, one of the great lakes and in the gulf.
West coast, (more northern part)
convertable or motorcycle?
not much of a wine drinker, but I eat quite a bit of fish, so I will say white
Victorian or Gothic?
hazelnut
fireplace or campfire?
pop corn
summer or winter?
Hello cosyfiep, it has been awhile.
Instead of a campout for the grandkids, went to Omaha Zoo. 3+ hour drive, $63.80 entry fee, 2 kids & 2 adults, hours of walking and looking at sleeping animals hiding in corners, only seeing about 1/4 of the zoo,....... I was not impressed.
pudding
tenderloin or chicken fried steak?
In spite of the heat, had the grandkids over for a backyard cookout. Planning one more camping trip before school starts.
voyager
pop tarts or pop rocks?
Perkunas here. Been playing since Christmas night 2005 and joined Guru August 2006. Although I do not log all the hours I use to, I still log on to GW daily. Some days, just to talk to Nicholas Sandford in pre. Since I have collected his wanted items through the end of July, I will rest my primary account from farming his items and continue vanquishing with Adam Asher (W).
