We had some great events this weekend, and congratulations to all who leveled up, or got some skills trained. Double XP all day Saturday was a marathon, but I got CS10 on Friday night with my SpearDriver character, and then I used the gamer glue from my birthday to get CS11 on Saturday. It's been a long time since I was able to get 1 level in one day on that character. I even leveled the VE shield on my nuker to c8, making him just about unkillable in PvE.
Our own league events today went fairly well, but I'm a little disappointed by the turnout for our Karma Event. Four or five white clan members showed up, but only that number came from the black clans, and we're a much larger league. With a little more participation we can make that a weekly event, 2 hours before the Sunday XP event. If you work at it you can get an interesting Karma title in a fairly short time. Please let me know in the comments if you would like to continue this event.
The bag dump from Hoppelhase was a big success, and everyone who showed up got some nice stuff. He gave directly to me quite a bit more and I have already dropped a lot of white clan skill books on ManualGirl. I have more to give, and I'll drop those on DonorGirl2 tomorrow. I have a lot of books for black clans too, but our ManualMan character is full. People, if you need a C11 or C12 skill book, please speak up. There is a list of the most useful skill books right here.
So? How did you do this weekend? Leveled up? Trained an important skill? Got some Loot from Hoppelhase?
And last but not at all least, A Big Thank You Very Much goes to Hoppelhase for his bag dump. That is a big help to our league members.

Yep, I'm officially getting older. Many of you know that I'm one of the older players in the game. I"m not the oldest, but I'm catching up to them! I'm turning 45 this year, so I guess I'm officially middle-aged.
I originally wanted to do another league event joke contest for my birthday. That was a lot of fun last time we did it, and the winning joke was birthday related.
The two lesbians next door gave me a Rolex today, for my Birthday. But I think they misunderstood me when I told them, "for my birthday I wanna watch!"
Pinky-Lu won one Blood Essence for that joke. Even my wife liked that one, and I told her today, "for my birthday, I don't want a Rolex!". We'll do this contest again soon, because it really was that much fun even for me. The prize will be a Blood Essence again. I just haven't had the time to be in-game this weekend.
So what did I get for my birthday? Well, I bought myself a whole bunch of Acclaim coins so I can rock on in the game. I got a bottle of Chivas Regal from my wife's parents, and a whole lot of patience and understanding from my wife. In particular she's not quite sure why I'm fascinated with this game, but I don't understand her interest in television crime shows either.
What I really want for my birthday is a bottle of Pinky-Lu's New Patented Gamer Glue!
The big bottle please!
And many thanks to RedCross for putting that image together. Great work!
