Happy sunny day, fair people of Vana’diel!
It has been a while since I last posted, hasn’t it!? I hope all is well and the fair Altana has been shining good fortune your way! ^_^
I’ve been on a bit of a vacation and have now returned, feeling all nice and refreshed (Refresh? Get it!? … okay, bad Red Mage joke
). Now, I’m ready to get back in business and is ready to attack all things with vigor… and perhaps cookies.
With rumblings of changes happening just around the corner, Buckline and I decided to get into leveling high gear and whip our subjobs into shape. My White Mage is sitting pretty at 39, so I chose to take Black Mage out for a spin, which was at 31. Bucky’s been switching between Samurai and Warrior.
I started out soloing for a bit in Rolanberry Fields using the trusty Fields of Valor and was getting some good EXP. Bucky joined me soon after and we relocated to Batalia Downs. At that time, he hopped onto SAM… his lvl 26 SAM… and we Level Synced… um…
The mobs enjoyed nom-noming our faces
A lot. So much so that we decided to relocate camps to Yuhtunga Jungle. Bucky also changed his job to WAR (which was at 34). Things went much, much smoother and we’re making loads of progress!
We’re gonna be there for a while, so I’ve asked Mogle-Pogle to forward my mail to Kazham, as well as send over the occaisonal Cookie Care Package.
Gordon Ramsey-Tansey Has Nothing on Me!
Oh yea! Forgot to mention Crafting! I’ve become quite the lil’ Chief in the homestead!
Cooking’s now at 43… and it shows! Buckline’s not spitting out Momma Minee’s Secret Pea Soup anymore, so it must be good. Or at least adequate. Om nom nom :3
I’m Swimming in Gilzzz!
Buckline finally sold his Scroll of Utsusemi:Ichi and got over 300,000 gil! O_O After much pestering asking him nicely and calling the Wifey Card, he caved and gave me half the gil. Now I have a whack load of gil burning a hole in meh pocket. I didn’t go on a wild spending spree, as I tend to do
I am looking into investing it in getting Cooking up. But the Mog Bonanza‘s coming up, and I need my marbles! And then there’s finishing up my Gobbiebag Quest to get some extra space (Adaman Ingot and Rainbow Cloth, I’m looking at youuuus!). What’s a kitty to do? Any suggestions, fair denizens?
The Few… The Proud… The MaliciousGuineaPigs
If some of you recall, I was lamenting the lack of linkshell love I was feeling a while ago. That has since passed, but Buckline and I have been thinking for a while about starting our own LS. And that’s exactly what happened last night.
I bought a Linkshell last night at Windy, and after much brainstorming, Buckline came up with the awesomest LS name ever: Malicious Guinea Pigs. We were hoping for The Cookie Cobblers, but that name was taken
MaliciousGuineaPigs Mission Statement: We’re a social shell looking to have some fun in the world of Vana’diel. We also want to help folks get missions and quests done, and even those big game events the kids are talkin’ about
Everyone’s welcome, of course. All we ask, is that you respect your fellow LS mate and be courteous
So here are the Founding Fathers of our uber-shell (would like to have more Founding Fathers, though. Folks I can trust and such >.> ):
- Yours truly, Admin of the Cavies
- Buckline, Second in Cavy Command and PearlSack Holder
- Danara, Trusty Keeper of Cavy Sack (… *insert joke here*)
- Ezkual, Trusty Keeper of Cavy Sack (…*tee hee hee!*)
Danara hit the ground running and recuited our first Cavy member, Fizzyfu! *huggles Fizzyfu* ^.^ Again, we welcome everyone, so if you’re on Bismarck and would like to join us, send a tell to one of us! We’ll be happy to have ya! Maybe if we have enough members, we could make a website. Hmmm….
I think I’ve rambled enough for today. So there you have it. I’ll be checking in soon-ish.
Ta~!

Go for the gobbie bags!
There has never been a time I regretted blowing all my gil on expanded inventory. It’ll make holding all those cooking ingredients on the way back from the grocery store a lot easier too.

Hmm… ya got a point there, Cid! I’ve kicked myself many a times for having to drop items from the Treasure Pool because I had no more room. Plus, as you said, I’ll be able to hold on to more Cooking Ingredients.
Thanks for your input, buddy!
