Weekend working

Log entry for the 7th of February 2016

That’s right I’m down to a two day week!

Saturday, I raid a Forest Temple and don’t lose too much, I come back with a global and reach position 4 on the rare item HoF table with an old style magnetic compass, it’s a stackable and I have no clue what it is for. Space Skilling Saturday goes well and I don’t lose too much. After I go through the zombie waves with a group already assembled and then take on Zombie Kong, actually managed a small profit from this but only due to some nice looks from the zombies. I did gain another hit point which brings me to 181.

Sunday, another Forest temple and again a small loss with 1 global and 1 rare item HoF, not sure what it was though.

In my 2 days I mange to lose 156 PED which was a return of 84%, not bad I think. I do have some real world issues which are keeping me from participating more, I’m hoping the break will help to renew my enthusiasm.

Temple raider

Log entry for the 24th of January 2016

Monday, with the skulls gained I raided both the Water Temple and the Forest Temple, I did quite well in the water and not so well in the forest. Both gave globals and the Forest granted me a rare item HoF when I got the forest idol. I do like doing these, there is something about them which is exciting. I think I have misunderstood the messages I get when entering, I read them as though once you had gained access by using a skull you could return to them any time but I think it just means you can return to the same session if you get killed and revived. I did raise a support case but have had no answer, I suspect they are still laughing. After I started on some Kongs to try to get the mountain skull, I had to log before I was finished.

Tuesday, I finished off yesterday’s Kong hunt, the results were a disappointing 50% return and not even a sniff of the skull. I shall have to keep trying. These are not an easy mob for me with my current set-up, maybe I should try a different armour as I spend too long healing.

Saturday, it’s Space Skilling Saturday followed by some the Things, unfortunately I did not return from SSS in time for the Zombie and King Kongs. TigeRPaW very kindly gave me a the King Kong map fragment, Jungle, this will bring my map fragment total to 3 of I believe 7. Big thanks to TigeRPaW, I owe her.

Sunday, I did the Mountain Gorilla event in the hope of gaining a Crystal Skull, I did not win this and came 6th, I did gain several forest skulls though, I will have to hit that temple a few times next week.

This week’s loss is 546 PED, a return of 71%.

Holy gorilla crap!

Late getting this one on-line, I’ve been too busy, I seem to have made a complete hash of posting it too, even though it is a draft the first line sits on the site waiting for the rest of it.

Monday, I head to Rocktropia, the next task will be happening there so that’s where I need to be. I should probably have updated the ship’s log but I failed.

Tuesday, I try to get into the Biodome and fail using both entrances and a fault in the roof, it’s instant death at entry. I chat some on #rocktropia and learn there is a rather long mission to gain an antidote. I head to Secret Island to make a start on this and spend well over an hour fighting Mountain Gorillas, I make a start and a profit, it bodes well.

Wednesday, I have to kill Kongs so I do so, yesterday’s good fortune does not last and I lose quite a lot and fail to gain the skull I need.

Saturday, it’s Space Skilling Saturday. After which I head back to Rocktropia and join those fighting Zombie Kongs, King Kongs and various Things. This goes spectacularly well there are HoFs and globals aplenty and a return of over 200%, making me 1.5 k PED, this will be a great help, I also gain a couple of Kong map fragments, these are needed for the quest into the Biodome.

Sunday, I set to against the Island Gorillas back on Secret Island and only lose a few PED, I do not manage to gain a Water Skull but I swap a Forest Skull from the Mountain Gorillas with Wolta for a Water Skull. More headway.

The return for the week was 143%, a profit of 1252 PED, a good week.

Looks like I did not make a hash of this post but that the latest “we have to make it work on a tablet” release of the software does not work properly, they are making it harder and harder to find the “this is easy to use on a PC” version of the software, bloody shame.

The Eomon taking the loot?

Log entry for 12th of July 2015

Monday, I’m still at Crystal Palace so I hunt the Kreltin. I’m a little over 1/10th of the way through the 5k mission, it will take some time and with loot like this more than some PED. A very poor 48% return, time to leave I think.

Friday, I’m too lazy to follow my own advice and once again I hunt Kreltin, a better result at 74% return but that’s still poor. Feeling somewhat annoyed at myself I set off for Rocktropia in an attempt to escape the Eomon loot vacuum.

Saturday, I did not have time to visit the surface during the day and was on-line just for Space Skilling Saturday, yet another poor return, damn those Eomon. After SSS I headed for and reached the Rocktropian surface.

Sunday, I decided to visit Secret Island, in truth it’s not much of a secret but a transplanted part of Next Island (the loader still has the Next Island banner on it) with the addition or substitution of a couple of Teleporters for Kong related activities. Unfortunately I was not able to join in any of these as there was no one else there. I did take on the Mountain Gorillas as well as several other creatures at different locations just to test the water, almost a 67% return, those Eomon manage to influence things even here and they don’t even have any rotten bananas!

An average return for the week of almost 66% with a loss of 420 PED.
