*chuckle*

forgive the relative lack of updates, i've started a new job and not had time to play FFXI let alone blog about it...

i noticed an interesting thing yesterday.

usually , i log into Tetramaster and there are *maybe* 3-4 people playing in the English Rooms.
yesterday evening, during maintenance, there were 45 people. the Novice Arena was FULL.
oh, and 3 player battles are an excellent way to make money.

what a fantastic day...

learnt {Mysterious Light} and {Blitzstrahl}
got Blitz off a Too Weak mob, too.. proves that you can.
6 hours on seek with no invites though.. ugh.

Armour upgrade-> from Combat Caster's Cloak to Brigandine (o for money to buy teh +1..) and a Valkyrie's Mask..

also, i have a job now. a proper job. so less playtime ><

uh, guys?

I thought we were pulling Crawlers?

a funny thing happened to me in Bastok yesterday...

Batfink and i were off to Gusgen, for a few reasons... (Poison Breath and a Strange Apparatus being two of them) when i get the following.

Dick>> Hello!
Krystall>> Hello! how can i help you?
Dick>> {Warp}{Can I Have It?}

.... okay. someone obviously cant /check me.

Krystall>> {I'm sorry} {Warp}={Black Mage} only
30 seconds pass

Dick>> No, {Blue Mage}{Warp}
WTF? since when did we get Warp?

Krystall>> {Warp}= BLM level 17 spell.
30 seconds pass.

Dick>> {Auction House} {Please check it} warp=level 17 warp2 = level 40 {Blue Mage}

oh my god! i /sea'd for this person they showed as level 25/12 so they should by now have realised that the abbreviation for blue mage is BLU and the abbreviation for black mage is BLM.

Krystall>> no.
Dick>> {Reward:} 1k
by this time i was on a chocobo, in LS chat laughing at this guy and postulating what teles i'd like, namely {Teleport: Shakira's pants} and {Teleport: Stefani's pants}

cos i've been asked to Tele people, too.

about 3 minutes later, i was in North Gustaberg and i get

Dick>> you coming then?

hmm.

/blist is your friend.

not a massive milestone but

self-skillchains: sorted.

oh yeah.

My Linkshell ROCKS.

(shame its not actually that good a sword...)
