housing item of the day- star chalice

well i finally got around to herding up the last of the things i needed to make this glorious item:
 so there i went and did it. its quite pretty i certainly suggest it if your are
a) a avid furniture collector
b) you like fun but rewarding crafting things
c) you got some time on your hands
d) some or all of the above
yes there is no doubt it would make a great centerpiece to any collection. why do i not show you a picture of a said collection? because i want you to use your imagination. but just so you know what you would be working with:

you cant really see the star in that photo. eh there are plenty of other stars in that picture. so anyways i was looking for a good place to put it when i noticed this:

yes, it seems when you put it behind something transparent you can see the chalice but not the star or the light that is suspending the star! here is another example of it:

uh thats about it for today. i met up with a long lost friend (head nod to Coyle) and my garden continues to expand!

oh and i am not sure if you can see it, but i met up with paige in the commons this morning and she had a intermediate gardener badge! see i am not crazy (well maybe a little...) i am so far behind! you can see me sporting that neophyte badge, but i am just not worthy (bows to paige)

ok later guys!

happy deducing!

time to step it up a notch!

well i decided since all you other bloggers out there are getting to the upper echolons of gardening i would follow suit (or at least attempt to) so i have expanded my garden! check it:

i know still not as big as you other people (looks at paige and deathly diviner)

but it is growing i say!

finally! and some cool plants

well my boom shroom didnt want to be havested at all until elder so here he is:

so yea, and with that one harvesting i became a neophyte so uh here is a picture of that:

and uh i got some baby stinkweed since there challenge/reward ratio is the best i have seen so far:

and they dont even dislike anything! but since so many crops dont like them i made a separate area for them. while i am on gardening i got this really cool seed a while back from one of the stormriven bosses and i cant use it since it is rank 6 but it is awesome:

awesome right? anyways they still havent fixed the bazaar yet in the test realm so yea thats all for now.

woot 75th post!

i know i didnt celebrate my 25th or 50th post but from now on i will be celebrating every 25th post!

ps. still no headdress D:<


psss. i know its not a competition or anything like it and i am not racing, i am merely excited. So don't get annoyed when i say: 75 posts in 2 months! must be a record!

changed the blog header

i thought up this little saying as i was writing the previous post so i had to add it! its similar to a phrase by Einstein but not exactly the same.
ps. still havent gotten that headress :/

hmm nachos with cheese with chili and cheese

rofl i saw a silly person on youtube who made something with the above mentioned name (minus the hmm) it was...................................................................................................... strange to say the least. so anyways i have been farming for a headress because i am saving my crowns for an unknown reason i cannot relay across this unsecured line. jk  i am acting strange today huh? ah you'll just have to deal with me because.... idk just do so please. anyways i am reading some anime manga (i dont know the difference) its pretty good, a bit melodramatic but interesting it is called deathnote. my friend wes said it was decent so i picked up the first one and it is good but they go by so quickly i am already in the seventh and i only read for like an hour or so a day and i started yesterday so yea.... uh that is all worth mentioning i believe. oh! all my crops are still mature adults but dont wanna be harvested :/ i am probably the only blogger who is still a novice >.<

happy thanksgiving!

i know its one day  late but... happy thanksgivign oh noes my spelling thingi ish noot werking ainemoor mi spelin ish a beet badd. just kidding that would be weird. anyways as of yesterday the bazaar in the test realm isnt working:

hmm i hope they fix it if they havent already, and i got my small garden to all adult plants and yet nothing is willing to be harvested. go figure. my boom shroom is almost elder it is so stubborn.

woot dropped statue and strange garden spells?

well my friend Luis got a statue called the cephalopod statue and it got dropped from Marcio. its pretty cool, i tried getting it but i had no such luck. here is a picture of it:

and also to report is while farming marcio for the statue i pulled a strange card into my hand:

interesting that is strange, guess what it does when i use it on the enemy? they turn into a flower XD just kidding

am i doing this wrong?

well my bloom shroom keeps exploding and looking angry so, am i doing this wrong? its kinda weird.

Yippee!!!! Dreams really do come true! :D

Well you know me when i heard the test realm was open i briefely checked this planting thing but, i went straight to celestia to see if there was furniture and guess what!!!!!!!

:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDD :DDDD: DDD :DDDD

YEA BABY THATS WHAT I CALL AWESOME SAUCE.
sorry about that... anyways they even used someof my ideas:

CRAZY GOOD!

myth spell #2 troll

sorry its one day late guys:

Ah troll, a beast so firmly rooted in myth we sometimes forget it is so ancient because of one of the newest memes calling someone a troll. a troll has had many forms and descriptions through the years, ranging from 10 foot tall beasts with tusks and a menacing look to human sized creatures with floppy ears and a puzzled look upon their faces. Most of the time they carry some form of crude weapon like a club, tree trunk or lamppost (modern times games, long story). The first people who portrayed trolls were the Old Scandinavian people describing trolls as vast, ugly, hairy giants or ogres with an evil intention. Next to mention trolls were ancient Greeks, as large stupid beasts who were quite strong, yet easily outsmarted. The Romans followed a similar path, giving them big droopy noses, an anguished look on their faces and swinging wildly at anything that moved. Then talk of trolls ceases for what I know (I am writing this right now on a word document without internet connection so all of this is what I can remember and just know in general about said beasts.) and they are mentioned here and there scattered over places and times where things that resemble trolls are mentioned. Some of these cultures are Aborigines, Inuit and Iqaluit.

Now, to the spell. I found that troll was easily capable of one hit killing most of the monsters in wizard city without even being powered up. There are examples of some creatures, that when powered up with a myth trap can be killed by troll. Some examples of this is the scarlet screamer, cyclops centurion, elf pathfinder and skeletal warrior. There are only 2 creatures in all of normal Wizard City (not including sunken city I mean) that a powered up troll cannot kill in one hit. These are the field guards who have quite a large amount of health for wizard city creatures (395) and War horns because of their mid-high health coupled with myth resist. Progressing into Krok they can wound or kill most of the creatures in the pyramid of the sun and some creatures in the Kroksphinx. After this they start to lose their importance and usefulness but they do serve well for finishing moves when a wand isn't strong enough.

Final summation (its from a funny guy on youtube, another long story):

Rofl lvl 2 pvp

so i was messing around and  i thought.. i bet pvp at lvl 1 is easy... but there are some things you got to know a few things about it.
(1 get a pet from your other chracters that gives an attack card varying in pip need from 2-4
(2 get a wand that you have that is good for a beginner wand. for example i use umbra blade because it is 75 damage and doesn't have a level limit.
(3 learn your level 2 spell because it can give you an edge.
(4 and i hate to admit this but, a huge part of very low level ranked pvp is treasure cards. so get some. i prefer polymorph because they give strong cards and a lot more health.
i'll post my rank in a few days, i am still fine tuning somethings.

contest winners!!!

well lets see we got 3 people and 3 places for winning... you all win! hmm who gets the most gold codes though? we shall see....
and the first place goes to....
jason!
and the second place goes to....
pegasus7! i will also send you your birthday snack pack code
and anyonymous, if you tell me the email in which you can recieve a code you too will get a code
and lol i forgot to post last month was my 1 year wizardversarary

ps. it might take a while i am going really well with each game .

Hmm ripoff and contest!

well well well... i think i found the biggest ripoff in the history of amulets:










do you see anything special about the legendary vial? no? neither do i. it is the same card for 10 times more money and your level needs to be doubled. i guess it is just one of those items you are surprised to find anyone wearing.

well anyways, on a happier note....

ok sorry guys, this week we dont have any special things... so it looks like it will be like this:
1st place: 3 gold codes
2nd place: 2 gold codes
3rd place: 1 gold code
that means if less then 6 people comment you are guaranteed at least one gold code.
k? comment and/ or follow and all that jazz.

Geez thats hard

i found some recipes that i haven't seen mentioned before, they are from this guy:

he is in the crustacean empire:

he has some pretty hard recipes:

wait what.... 2/10 golden pearls.... 2/7 golden pearls?!?!?! strange... and you need 17 golden pearls O:

Ohhh what a busy day

Oh i had such a long day, i woke up early to go swimming at 6:00 am,  then had school from 8:00 am until 4:00 pm then i had the last tennis practice of the season, then had a snack and did half an hour of homework, then i had a party at a friend of my parents who have a huge house and the guy who owns it is a collector so has a bunch of rare historical things. that party went to 10:00 pm (10 minutes ago) then i posted this blog then i went to bed or played wizard101 depending on whether or not my insomnia decides to act up.

anyways,

happy wizarding

Hmm how bizarre

now, i am pretty new to magazine subscribing so this may be how it is supposed to be but, i talked about the Massive online Gamer Magazine i got the other day on it, the one i said came with a krokotopian hammock furniture item... well it said on the cover January/February 2011. is that normal? i will edit this post later with a picture.

Myth Spell #1 blood bat

The bloodbat, one of Kingsisle's clever inventions. Could be similar to a Vampire bat or other small flying beasty. No real mythological backround since it is  made up loosely around a real creature.

  Ah, bloodbat the cornerstone in any myth wizard's arsenal. While this spell does lose some of its usefulness and sheen over the course of your leveling experience like most low ranking myth damage spells it does have its occasional perks. like delivering the finishing blow to Jacques the scratcher:

 or killing off those pesky soul searchers in the roost. Bloodbat is also a acceptable replacement to a wand if you aren't pulling the right cards.

ps. tell me what you think i should do to improve these weekly posts in the comments.

darn

Well i got the MOG magazine in the mail today and it came with a krok hammock code, but since i was being so excited and rushing it i did something wrong and i emailed KI about since i was being a dufus.

info on the statue

well i forced myself awake to be the first to report on it after it was released. the commemorative statue is one of the few statues able to be auctioned off (along with the dragon horn statue). The statue isnt quite big but it is bigger then selena gomez's statue but smaller then most statues. it is (as of now) able to be bought for 40,000 gold each at the bazaar and it distinctively is holding a valor sword. thats about as much as i can infer/know so far at this point.

Oh i love that!

hehe i just caught a reference to the classic sherlock holmes tales:

hehe. do you get it? No? OK well in the traditional series of sherlock holmes by arthur conan doyle Watson had hurt himself as a doctor in the afghan war before meeting mr. holmes

Woot!

Its time for another segment of...

part 2!

this time we have a code for a birthday snack-pack for all you pet training lovers. comment below to seal your chance for it!

i'll announce the winner tommorrow once i use random.org

Breaking the fourth wall? o:

well today my myth guy was in hyde park when i saw this particular bit of speech from her:

to my recall, we haven't seen anyone else anywhere mention our map, and some areas have been quite confusing in terms of where we have needed to go. So this leads me to believe that the NPC's don't normally know about our "map" and so Ms. Conrail here has realized she is in a video game and given us a hint about it, and since she isn't in the tutorial, she has broken the fourth wall. Food for thought.

Competition

well i am not gonna generalize, but the MFP's i have seen so far have stinked in terms of decorations. so whats why me and my furniture extraordinaire partner-in-crime Talon ____Wraith (i say that because most of his wizards have the same name except a change in the ____ area) are having a competition to see who can make a better house. it will be judged my 4 people (who's names will remain anonymous) by 3 aspects: originality, creativity and theme. many other people are invited to come along as well. The problem is that the official opening of the 2 houses isnt going to be until around january, because i am getting my house for christmas. so talon gets a head's start, but i am confident i can succeed ;D. wish me luck and comment if you think your palace is decorated well or if your just interested to see how it turns out.

OMGosh and myth strategy

I was just at some massive palace thing and i saw someone who had over 4,000 health! it was ice obviously but still! it used to be that wizards were so outnumbered in terms of health but here in Celestia i am finding that the wizards are getting more health faster then the monsters! i immediately added this wizard because she was nice as well but here it is:

incredible huh?

also for today
i will start something today which i saw on another blog and i think it is quite helpful. i will be making the myth version of this death school thing every week on sunday.

so now you know certain days have certain meanings. so far you know this much:

So the first segment of:

So, i will have a way that each section on a spell will be laid out. it will go something like this:

Name  card picture

 short mythological summary of the creature; how the creature has been portrayed in various myths.

uses/ functionality: other then its initial use how useful is it truly. 

overall good card scale.  the cards moving on will gradually have more uses as the spell line progresses but there may be some exceptions where they are particularly not useful or very useful. 

hmm... a pity

well since nobody commented OR sent me a email, i guess i get the gold codes to myself. well anyways, i was right about the farthest most thing on the celestian wallpaper being a water lurker and the crab being emporer pontus! hmm it seems almost every blogger has an alternate game to wizard101 and i have one as well! if any of you saw the GDC results then you may be mad but it is... League of Legends! Yes i am now playing LoL some. And... lets see what else is there to say? oh my myth guy got deleted by accident a while back (long story) so i made a new one recently because until recently i was working on my death guy, but anyways he is now in krok! and he is looking pretty sharp:

hmm but currently he seems more interested in taking a swim in the moat surrounding akori's lair.

well anyways, that's all for today.

CONTEST!

ok i need a stimulus for this blog... so i am gonna do something now every wednesday called:

Woot! since this is the first contest in this many part series we will start it off small! 5 gold codes
comment below and post your email (i rarely go on central)


And since it is late here, good night!

p.s. if you get anything on KIfreegames,com other then gold codes let me know, i would be deeply interested.

You know, Ambrose would be an easy fight

If you think about it Ambrose would be pretty easy there are more advanced astral spells then the ones we can access right now. Because all he could do is put Personal bubbles on himself (astral), turn into polymorphes of either spirit or elemental school minions (lunar) or power up his normal damage attacks (which astral schools don't have) (solar). So all in all i wonder how he is able to fend off people like morganthe or malistaire.
food for thought.

Farm... farm farm farm!

well i finished celestia, i am lvl 59 and i am farming for good stuff such as a lvl 58 death robe since i already got hat and boots. i am gonna try and see what drops Eeglis, Tobiko, Cuthalla and the bosses in the trial of the spheres and hopefully make a guide about ti

hmm that is annoying

well on the side of my blog it shows various things but what i noticed was that 2 features are acting weird. 1. was the highlighted blogs, it is all black except when you go over where a blog title is it will appear, then disappear when you take your mouse off of it. 2. the same problem with my post history! i have fiddled with it since i noticed this, and nothing is showing any improvement. any techies out there some advice or solution would be nice thanks.

epic sauce battle

So i had just turned lvl 58 and i rushed to dworgyn for my bone drake spell. when i got there he told me to talk to the tree, then i went back to him and talked to him he said i had to kill this guy for drake bones in the necropolis right? so there i go and i get there and he has a lot of health:

yea 13,000! i was like "O: i will never get mah new spell!" did i mention friends cant help? or that blades, traps and shields all cause him to put a hex on you? and did i mention i only had 35 crowns? so...

SEVERAL YEARS OF BATTLING LATER...

i had a lvl 30 life henchman and a semi good minion and i have managed to make it this far :D

i cant believe i have done so well and he is almost dead :DD!
you know what i feel like saying right now for no reason? this guy's health its...its... OVER 9,000!!!!!!
ok after that spurt of randomness, back to the battle!

So close!

VICTORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

woot until next time people!

i have a deadline

Ok, i am trying to get to lvl 58 by tonight so i can wear these sweet boots and hat i got that are 58+ to amber's party. and since this will be the first blog person party i will have gone to, i want to look good.

daring the dark depths that is... the crab empire!

Here i am in a normal crab community, they have  no clue their hero walks (or swims) among them.

they tell me i need to kill the inferior barbaric beasts that are the Lophians (angler fish) and piscean (sharks). I set out immediately, following their blood trail.

i spot them, and i go into a predatory state of mind. i crouch in the algae, selecting which of these primitive beasts will be my first prey, i find one with a slight limp and i prepare to strike

when the battle comes around they outnumber me in size and numbers.

but in the end...
i was victorious!
