August 16, 2008

I figured out what happened (I think) with the high scores glitch I saw. I closed my browser instead of nicely logging out. So I logged back in and logged out and there it was. I wonder what would have happened if I had tried to change worlds.

Anyways, I continue to spend my time yelling at the Olympics. Mostly cheering on the Americans, Brits, Aussies and anyone from some country that really doesn't stand at chance at getting many medals. If I've never heard of it I've probably cheered for that athlete. There's some great sports that I wish American TV would show more of. I mean, we get baseball/tennis/basketball all the time. How about some team handball or judo or badminton (well, maybe not badminton).

So anyways.....I got to 79 Firemaking. I'm burning maples in Oo'log. I use a pyrelord for the extra 10 points a log (270 pts each load). After 2 pyrelords I run outside the western gate of Oo'log and replenish my summoning xp. I then cut a load of Eucalyptus and run back. This breaks it up enough to be interesting. (Pyrelord is about 32 minutes so the whole cycle is a little more then an hour).

Was getting closer to 80 in my melee skills so after I killed Bork 2 nights ago I hopped over to the fire giants and finsished my slayer task. Talked to Duradel again and after turning down steel dragons got fire giants again. Back to the chaos tunnels and got 80 Strength, 80 Defense and 80 Attack. I took a fully loaded Spirit Terrorbird. They do some damage and allow me more food going in and loot going out.

I'm now honestly surprised a bit by how many people I see in combat with decently high levels who don't use a summoning familiar. At the lower levels I'd imagine they would be even more valuable. I certainly could have used all the help I could get in fighting and hauling stuff.

I've been following the Olympics a lot too while playing. Team Handball definitely needs to be a more publicized American sport. Watching badminton wasn't that bad either though, seeing them hit the shuttle at 200mph was impressive. The trampoline might be my new favorite, people doing flips 20ft in the air and the slightest misstep sends them flying uncontrollably..

Congratz on the level! I agree about the summoning point, I bring Terrorbirds to pretty much and cb situation, if not to store more food then to store more keepworthy-drops.
