Under the Full Moon

So far have attended another Tigres Prison raid, but fifth floor is a bit tough.  We'll have to make another attempt!  p( '.' )q

Reached 8000 Back Alley Poor Favor Rate!  :D

Have yet to try exchanging to see if rate has gotten better.  I calculated that if I get my 50 points a day I'll be able to reach 10000 by November 1st, but I think it's more reasonable to say November 7th in case of not getting 50 favors a day.  ^.^;

Also, it's been since January that I took a look at my medal counts!  :o  Ninety-Eight!

Will get a few more when we get through more Tigres floors!  :)

By the way, new Blog Guardian!!!  Click please!  :D

Ferragamo Family's Sword2 Era Data

The "Lost Days" have been posted, if anyone would like to view from the main blog page.  I recommend reading from bottom up to read it in sequential date order*.  Also, thanks for the clicks on Hector Bunny, he's leveling up pretty fast!  :o

*As it turns out, on Blog Lists, if you back date, the post becomes the "latest post" and whatever date you use, places it back to "two days ago", for example.  Whereas, on Followers list, even though back dated, it shows up as latest post.

This post consists of screencaps of the last things, the last details of the Family.  Tomorrow I'll have some time (perhaps) to settle down (still busy with work and study) to write a more reflective post on the things I've done and the progress I've made in 2012 and what I hope and plan to do in 2013 in the new server.

Last Forum Post - I've been around for over two years, but such a lurker that I've only made 60 posts on the G1 forum.  XD

Family Stats - Somehow I managed to squeeze in 3% before the end!  Renton (Viki) and Lucrecia (Valleria) went up one Master level and Borus (Coimbra) was promoted to Master.
32 Masters (12 maxed - my Vespers) and 39 Experts for total of 71 characters o.o!

Medal Count - I think 45 of these are Castilla related and 35 are Alliance War related, the last one being the skull PVP (I don't pay much attention to medals, admittedly)

Alliance War Stats - ATK 9% going away!  T.T  Still crazy that I made it past 1 million points.

Last Gold Purchase - Because I'm a nerd, I had to end the game with zero Gold balance and this is what I decided to invest in.  Hopefully they were wise choices.  :x

Last Words - My last words in Clan Chat and the last PM when I signed of at 21:37SST.  I PM spammed everyone on Friends List who was still online and gave it five minutes for responses.  Altina became the last PM.  :)

One more post to go!  Tune in again!

If Once You Fail, Try, Try Again

Event Experience Buff is ending tonight!  In some ways, I'm relieved.  I'm sad to see it go, but for some reason, it feels like ever since this event started I've been going full force rampaging raids and vesping.  I've gotten exposure to a lot of different challenging raids (thank you senpai!) and I can feel my improvements.

Mostly I'm just sad about the Easter Egg Basket.  Viki gave us some good rings (for example, Rouse, Grace Stance, Lorch Stance, Caly Stance).  Today's most noteworthy are the Sect of Moonlight Stance Ring and Wild Shot (Punisher) Skill Ring.  The game is telling me to go farm Letizia Shiny Boxes...  But I'm scared.  What's a good team to set up camp there?

Today was a slow day and it was a nice change of pace.

Went to ASV with senpai and I had a lot of fun.  I've been to it five times prior to this.  The first three times I was the protection family (not the Hellena family nor the attacker family) with LaRo-kun (as Hellena) and his clannies.  The next two times were duo'd and I was the attacker family.  I was too slow at attacking and it was kinda painful.  :\  I hadn't gone since January.  Today I went as the Hellena family!  I took Simon (Raven), Claudia, and Ana.  I didn't have to worry about Claudia dying though.  She got poked a few times by the Honors, but it they barely scratched her.  (I had to chuckle at my lack of finesse compared to LaRo-kun; his Vince/Hellena/Viki team was solid.)  Plus, senpai was fast on attacking, so we moved on to the next room quickly.  In the big boss room, there was an instance where senpai and I Cul-de-sac'd at the same time.  I swear it was so synchronized I thought I was seeing double!  XD  It was a good experience!  :D

Thank you's today go out to glic-san, Snow-kun, and Eri-senpai.

Two pictures I forgot to post.

From yesterday, the Mufasar session with senpai

Finally, Success!

Today's ToC run consisted of:

I got my drop!  After the ninth attempt!
