Sir Odd's Diary - Picking myself up

[sir odd]

Since I feel the need to do both storytelling and my daily routine at the same time I'll post my day to day activites here, whilst those who want to enjoy my PE stories, click on the blog link on my sig.

Day 151 (yes, I'm keeping count )

Begain with relogging three times before soc chat functioned. This can't be good...
Returned to my favorite place north of phoinex...some reason this location has a high concentration of not only fruit, but dung! Credit to the snables and chickens in the area, continue to eat whatever it is! Searched for about 5 minutes or so until...eureka! 125 dung! Dang I'm good. (Anyone who doesn't know PE must think I'm mad )

Off to sell...few months ago before the LG's dung was selling hotter than a bowl of popcorn, now your lucky to find even one seller in all of Calypso. Managed to find a buyer but he was only doing 1.0 /per dung. Thought it was at least two or so, TP'd to a few other places then went back and made the deal. At least I had enough PED on the card to get a worn piece of goblin arms to accompy my goblin harness. The acid protection will come in handy.

Picked up another amertha TP, six left to get. Embaressing myself for playing this long and not having all 13, though with the high-end mobs and the RT's still non-functional from the LG, it's impossible to even get close to merial's island and nate's valley. Need that promotion...

Stuck around phoinex a bit more, trying to pick up a disciple or two to train. I had a kick arse mentor (well, not offical mentor but he helps out once in a while). Had two interested until another person was offering free equiptment to any disciple he would train, so mine were gone like that. How does one handle such competition?! Bah, maybe later. Another downside to not being able to put 'los dolores' in...get steamrolled at everything.

Still flippin' through the classifieds, but I'm talking with Ido about helping him advertise his shop and put myself in for the PE Directory slot for 100 PED/month. Now THAT would kick some major snable. Cross your fingers it's still available...

After that I took my luck and logged off.

my, how rude of me not to introduce myself!
*clears throat*
Allow myself to introduce...myself
Odd sir odd bunny, friends simply call me odd. Maybe it's a reflection of my real life self, which I can take as a compliment since I try for the unquie solutions to life's problems.

Why sir odd? Mix of my gamer name in other games and my webmaster name. Oddbunny is my name I use to run my webpages www.sirodd.i8.com/index.htm, and http://www.geocities.com/oddbunny/ne...bunny_page.htm. It was created randomly by Yahoo when I was choosing a username, so I guess that's how it was born.
Sir Odd I use as a player name in AOE II & III, as well as a few others. Didn't know quite what I was doing the night I registered for PE, so I ended up with the mix of my PE name.
Little behind the scene of my RL story, sophmore in college majoring in computer programming and minor in web design. Hoping to get a good job and strike it big, thus more goodies for me and hopefully my avatar in the future
Back when I created my avatar I was still using my 32MB video card, thus I sort of BS'd my looks seeing as I could only see my avatar's head since the card wasn't enough. I was quite lucky to have the sound on, otherwise I would've had a female avatar (nothing wrong with that, just thought it would have been a bit odd!)
I wanted to have my name stick out like popular people, so I struck up the ol' blog and guide. I was quite supried on how much attention I got the very first night! (life was good! )

Well, that's enough of me for now I guess!
Cheers, go HOF, and apologies for not putting the Diary in the thread name, MS9 is going to kill me! )

[sir odd]

Logged in, found myself face first in the ground with the nice blue skull over my head...wow that's bad news
Pulled out my ol' ematter detector thingy and bought two probes. Went to the one spot that never fails to hit...
Fumbled for the probe in my inventory...dam hides and bottles of sweat always in the way! Stupid no good for...ah! Probe. Pulled it out but dropped it on the ground. Was about to bend down to pick it up when it activiated and zoomed into the ground sideways. It shot through a snable and blew a big hole in it. Hillarous...all this time the finder was buzzing and vibrating like a cell phone on caffine...I looked at it and low and behold it found something...just an 'unkown' type with an 'unknown' size, so I followed the little arrows around until the center lit up and I heard the satisfying 'ding-ding!' of a sucessful find. Look at the deed...'tiny'. Took out the huge extractor, then after planting my feet did I activate it...only the extractor can make you shake your whole body at the same time. Used one extraction and it was up. 50 pec of garcen grease. No profit, no loss, welcome to pe

Finally got enough for a few hundred rounds in my laser pistol, so out to hunt!
From my past experiences my first two kills of the day usually are the best. Whether it’s just luck or fate, I count on those two to set the trend on the rest of the night. First is snable old…I usually aim to take those out since higher maturity = higher loot (though all my high looting (3 PED is most I’ve gotten this year), they all came from young’s…maybe it just makes me feel better to take out a big bad old )
Shoot it down with my sixth shot, 5 hits and 1 skill gain but missed. Loot window pops up, I get excited…1 pec. Sorry, even this is making me laugh. I continued on my one man hunt for a snable young when a chicken comes up and decides to taste my blood. Ha, his (hers, it?) mistake, as I quickly wheeled around and put about 80 rounds into the chicken and made a low honking noise as it hit the ground. Loot it, actually got a few PED’s and a board, so that’s cool. Tonight was going to be halfway good at least. Was shifting though my stats when on the chat screen not one, but two of my soc mates scored HOF’s, larry for 850 crafting and Jax for 200+ ore find. Said a quick gratz to both and continued my hunting, which produced nothing but lose pecs and hides.
Oh, what I would do for my own global or HOF…bah, I’m rambling again, sorry! 
Went fruit/dung hunting again…nothing. Well, if nothing else, there will be tomorrow. Might make journey to rig, who knows? I might make lol…

Cheers, go HOF (lootus is out there!), and spray your snables
-end-

[sir odd]

Must say, I got an eye for lose loot

Hanging around jason center, looking at all the new and pretty ads that display above the auction house. I fired a shot at the projector but it didn't break...that's too bad. Be funny to blow out the bulbs...new crafting item? So I was bored sortof, when along came an ad that said "Treasure hunt at longu land! Items scattered all around for all to find!"

Hell yes, has my name all over it! Since no one has the patience to actually walk back and forth to find fruit or dung, I was going to have that entire place to myself (assuming nobody mistakes me for a longu ) I forgot the coords to the place and showed to be 20000, 11710 (something like that). So I tp'd down to Gensis star towers, already forgetting the coords and thinking 20000,17710, so I ship over to the LA, and low and behold, not longu, but atrox! Funny...

As I swam my way back to Gensis star, I see a bright silver thing on the bottom of the pond (pond, river? Lots of water there so I dunno). Lol, must sound like everybody in the summertime in RL. But anywho, back to the story! Yes, it was a shiny pec. All for me . Much love and +rep to those who do things like that! I figured, heck, why not search the whole pond? So I swam around for a bit, not REALLY expecting to find anything...besides, who places a barrel of crude oil and 20 hides under the seaweed? Well, somebody did Life is swell.

Anyway, got back to jason after that, and somehow I managed to catch the ad again and this time the right coords. Unfortunely, the closest TP I got atm is Wolvernine, and well...everyone knows what's going down there at this time. Didn't go about 20 m. before being blasted out of the sky by a gen 06. Dam buggers Scrapping that plan I did a quick TP to Nea's, then figured walking south of the border of the two LA's I could get past without a scratch. Erp, almost...a big blue beasty with a nasty looking club came out from almost the outside of my rader and pummled me and some other guy I think was trying to pk me, hehe his mistake...

Well that did me for the night...went to gather some dung at my fav spot but it was dry, so I jumped on a few snables, went window shopping at TI then left.

Good night, HOF, and if you own the oil and hides, TY much and keeping doing it!

[sir odd]

Lol this is good for a laugh or two...know it doesn't count in the contest but thought I'd share it anyways...

Been to a few hangers but never seen an empty one without a shuttle. Being me I came with some crazy idea, "Maybe if I log off, the shuttle will return,and when I relog, I'll appear IN the ship, free ride to CND!" Unfortunetly for me the ship and poliot had other plans as they returned about that time to land, and I got crushed! Hillarous! Didn't think it was even possible, but low and behold
Now if he finds a squished carcass on his landing gear that'd be me

Just got wind of another bot invasion...great...pretty soon everyone is going to have to evacuate to CND for some R&R...and watch the pretty fireworks as Calypso gets nuked Things sure seem to be going to heck in a handbasket...if they wanted more realistic storyline they should only bring a group of bots down and when players kill them they DON'T return...instead of them just popping back up again...aiy! Too much info.

Few weeks away from my six month anniversary of playing *tears up*...good stuff, hope for a few more!

Busy working on the PE Wiki site...good folks there as well. So between letting my dirary fans here and other pe projects the blogspot story will come out less often. Feel like a million peds though, so don't worry! Not quitting!

Hope you all liked my mob chat yesterday...know I still do

Cheers, HOF, keep your stick on the ice!

Well, got 2 of the three things….
- Got the 20 PED for the ride
- Got the mission

…all I need now is find a person to fly :P

Anywho, backtracking…

Day started out alright, blowing away a few snables here and there but gave nothing big out (mostly hides and the like), then I get a mid-day prize package just for being kick ass (ok, maybe not that…but loyal if nothing else). Go drop kick a few probes around, find a few pockets of crude oil and garcen grease, came out a little behind but that’s alright. Sell the just mentioned for a bit more, than TT’d some probes for ammo and went snable/berry/sakura (whatever those wormy things are called, too lazy to look up) hunting. Again, 12 snables with not even a pec until a grandpa snable (my favorite name to call old’s) spat out an amazing 18 PED worth of stuff (two pixie gloves and arms in the mix, but already got those…and being F just doesn’t fit my M hands  ) Whoo-hoo! Got a few more rounds but still nothing, kept 20 PEDs so I could finally make the trip to…you know what.

Ok…find a hanger owner, get up, start the party…
Ran N of camp ehcina (running close to turrets incase of bots), went to Jessie’s hanger of www.TWV.com (our two soc’s are allies), but nobody was home except a Gen 01 hanging out in the hanger area…ok…

Ran to hanger #4…nope, nobody home…waited to Top o’ the hour…nada…15 past…bah (nothing against any of the CND pilots, just I’m always on at the worse times!)
Stood around the outside, the hanger next to #4 TP chipped amazenly right at his doorstep, then looked around a bit as if he was looking for something…before I reached him two others came out of nowhere, seem to trade & chat for a bit, then bolted inside. A few seconds later (and I mean seconds) the earth below me shook as the roof opened up and out came the shuttle! Wow, never seen a liftoff before, quite amazing! After the shuttle left I took a quick peak inside the hanger and saw the empty garage area…No sooner had I left the front door had the earth once again shook and as I looked up the shuttle had returned! The guy came out, we chatted for a minute or two, then he TP’d off again. Wow, even the pilots can’t stand still for a second!

Ok, I know 99% of the time Twin Peaks has pilots looking for riders…easy sell…
Use TP, ask around…no pilots! (Well for that matter…only 7 people there, 5 were in the octagon, so doubt riders were needed!) Aiy, it was late, so again I will try tomorrow.

Cheers, go HOF, and CND watch out….I’m coming

[sir odd]

Still waiting for a flight , but thx for shock for almost getting my ride (if the kitchen waited another 2 minutes before catching fire I'd would've made it last time I leave bro to fixing dinner!)

Ah yes Rl can really burn ya

All good though, nothing big. Nothing like a little ice to cool the fire eh? Anywho...

After screaming and cursing for a half hour or so I got back on to see the shuttle had gone and I was still on calypso. Oh well, Twin is busy so between running and finding heavy lag in Enchina (kept taking 6 steps back for every 10 it seemed, got frutstraed and just 't' 'ed my way back to camp. Finally got back to Twin, waited around some, finally some pilot taking riders but at a steep 30 PED. Nada from me, I'll keep waiting. Bunch of Pking going on at the octagon tonight, Some avatar (Akoz mostly), kept blasting everyone with some kind of energy cannon. Didn't step inside the ring myself, but I think I got the message on how it worked...Akoz kept tempting people by placing piles of ped at the back of the ring...even those who ran for it didn't even make it halfway without being blown over. Quite amazingm if I say so myself.

Well it was late and I must say, holding on to 20 PED for three days stright without spending a pec is hard has heck. I couldn't take it anymore, so I decide to hit the auctions and see if I could spend a ped or two just to get my ped spending fix. Went though last calls, nothing in range of 20 peds, few estates up for grabs, one for 8 ped and one for 3, thought about it, but they end tommorw (tonight today), so I will see how they faired. Chances are they're above 100 PED but hey, who knows? Wouldn't mind having my own place on calypso.

Went to the newest items added, found a nice A101 with TT value of 2.89 PED with a starting bid and buyout of 3 PED. Now, either the person knows it or not, but he loses 89 pec of business once you add the 1 ped fee. Heck, if I didn't grab someone else would, so you bet your bunny bottom I bought it! Only lose 11 pec in the deal, and now my little laser pistol can dish out up to 32 damage/hit! Upgrade dammit!

Ah, gotta love PE.

Well, still be behind a few days from everyone else in the speed domes, but I will make it...trust me

Cheers , go HOF, and smoke me a kipper I'll be back for breakfest!

Big wootage!

Finally left the big gas giant and went to the big...brown comet

First stop...


Nicely surpised by the smoothness of the place...fraid it was going to be lagg city but happy I'm wrong.

Oh, window shopping will keep me busy for the next month or two...
er, gotta go kill something.

And the size of the domes?! Dam, I was expecting something circluar, about the size of jason center, not 10 football fields.

Could've waited till tommorw but needed this out of my system!

Cheers, go HOF, and if you need me I'm dancin' on the dance floor!

[sir odd]

"...Could someone tell our space virgin what to do while I ready the ship?" Said the captain.
Now whether I should've taken that as an insult or no I didn't know, but I had waited this long to catch a flight, no going back now. Besides, with three other people in nice armor and big cannons that could tear me to shreads in a second, I decided to play along just to get my butt to space! Besides, the 20 PED was all I had left so I knew it would be a 1-way ticket...
Finally able to board I gave the pilot my 20 peds and was told to move to the back seat. Bah, never liked sitting in back, why can't I have the window seat?! So I dragged my feet to the back. What is this? A little room with a single seat in the center?! Biting my lip I sat down. "Press the red button" I was told. I look down to see a small red circle on the seat, so I pressed it. The whole area went dark, and then a pic that represented the passengers showed up with a few other things. Interesting to look at, but I couldn't see the HUD. Then of course one of the passengers is talking, I freak out and exit the screen (of course at that time everyone else buckles up, leaving me to be the noob once more) Suddenly everyone's yelling at me to sit down! But I am down! I quickly press the red button again but it won't let me! Aiy! So I quick stand up and sit down again, this time the red button presses and everyone shuts up...whew! Then the whole place started to shake...couldn't see what was happening but I think I got the idea soon...


Oh Damn!


*Imagine a cry in space*

Next thing I know, I step out and into the docking bay. I made it!
Thanking the kind pilot (Marco, CEO of Chi Unit), we all ran down as a group to the main lobby area. Ah, life is good!

First I just ran around a bit getting lost in the corridors of the place, then got to the main dancefloor area. HUGE! Flippin' huge! I slightly remember the "Club Neverdie shop 62 "Main Complex"....must visit!
Of course, I started at #1 and went clockwise...thus hitting #1-#65 without just going counter-clockwise and getting to #62 in a few seconds. Axes, Faps, amps...I just sat on the sofa in the display window and took off everything but my boxers, as I was quite exausted! Besides, no one was around...I sure didn't mind...

After a few minutes on the chair I decided to go streak around some apartments. Found some random place, nobody was home so I decided to dance a little here...

and a little there...

Had quite the jolly time until I saw a green dot pop up. You bet I ran!

TT'd what I had left and got 199 rounds of ammo. Time to hunt! I popped in and out of random domes to see what could kill me. Ran into one dome and was greeted by a large purple thingy which hit me kinda hard...last time I play in there for a while!

Then ah...dome #5. Snable youngs, brillant! I was back home! I happly fired away at the green snot blasters and only got a few pecs and a can of hair gel...so THAT's why the hair gel is green...it's from a snable! Ha...as for the orange paint though, still working on that one...Meanwhile some other person was emattering, the ground shook and then yellowish fireworks shot off him as he hit a hof. Grr...should've spent my few ped on ematter instead of laser cells...oh well, at that time I was watching him I had about 5 snables and a few exo's all munching on my hide so I gleefully appeared at the local RT.
Wow, for being a first day I'm impressed...have yet to check the disco..bet that's fun

Cheers, go HOF (don't take mine!), and I'll be wondering around for the next month!
