light rampant pt.2

"I'm not sure Light Rampant is that great of a mechanic," said HGR. It's the perfect day to be fighting Shiva: -4 degrees out, windchill of -19. Also, Kan's friend heard that he was progging Light Rampant and asked us to stream our session so that he could watch Kan's suffering. That's what friends...

water appreciation day 2021

I woke up, went to the kitchen to make my breakfast mocha, and turned on the tap. No water came out. Ohhh right, there was a scheduled water shutdown today from 9 to 5. I read the notification email and then promptly forgot about it. I had intended to prep in advance by gathering containers of water...

light rampant

Today's raid session was stonewalled by Light Rampant, which is notorious for its iconic levels of bullshit. "Done this with four groups and it's four hours of bullshit every time," said Kan. "You know I love you guys because I do Light Rampant with you." HGR drew us an explanatory diagram. I'm no...

suspicious activity & a total scam

We weren't able to raid Eden's Verse for the past two weeks because Silver's FFXIV account got locked for "suspicious activity" and his queries to customer support went unanswered. What a cliffhanger after getting Iconoclasm to a 0.1% enrage. On the plus side, Tiro agreed to sub for Silver last Sun...

white stones | 10M, shaded, merle x2 | to a good home

November 8 – Everyone's favorite late-night guessing game: gunfire or fireworks? It's an empty game since I don't know the sounds well enough to distinguish, but there were a lot of them, followed by yelling and the sound of revving engines. I always say to myself that my balcony wall will protect ...

pigeon report

I am pleased to report that the pigeons are okay. I went downtown today for my dentist follow-up appointment (getting the permanent crown installed), and this time I made sure to look out for pigeons. I saw three big flocks—the first at the plaza, a second near the mural, and a third industriously p...

make black mages hate you with this one weird trick

So far, 2021 is looking like the party year. On New Year's Eve, our entire static except for Kan got together for an impromptu board game night. I use the term "night" loosely; we started at 6 pm, with a break for dinner, and went until around 5 am. numbers was the GM. He was wildly drunk but had ...

sun stealers

Several days ago I started playing Wolvden and I'm unreasonably excited about getting to run a wolf pack. (Merry Christmas to me, I guess?) I wish this site existed when I was 12; I would've been literally obsessed. Meet the Sun Stealers: Rubicon (m) | pack leader | 261 stats | gray w/ white inver...

now we're thinking with portals

HGR and I were discussing the copotypes of our static's dps. numbers is obviously an apocalypse dps, jumping off the edge. Luis is a superstar dps (too busy being a superstar to revive people). newbie's the boring dps, and I'm the sorry dps. After a month-and-a-half hiatus, we are BACK TO RAIDING ...
