Paladin Retirement, Augments, Nyzul Isle, KSNMs, and the Rules of Team Supremacy

I haven't done much in the game lately. Not enough to warrant a blog post. This is due to work and a decreased desire to play. Hopefully it'll get better soon!

First thing's first, my PLD is now in a state of temporary retirement. It will be removed from its retirement state when I get Atonement and an Iron Ram Hauberk.

Good night, sweet prince.

Anyway, on to the augments. Unfortunately, it's pretty lacking. A whopping two.

I'm attempting to make a RDM tanking set. Of course, Anubius probably won't let me actually tank, but I've got to find something to make me appreciate RDM more.


I did the new fairy augment with Flint the other night. I still have my PLD item traded in, so we should definitely do this sometime. According to people in our group, you apparently get gil items if you help without turning in an item. Also, we should do some Fields of Valor augments sometime as well.

Next, we did Nyzul Isle last night. We managed to get to floor 75 with help from Mike and William. Your help is greatly appreciated, guys.

In other news, I'm starting to get poor. I have about sixty kindred seals, so we should do some KS30s sometime. I'm up for Royale Ramble. Guaranteed O Ingots sound awesome to me.

Finally, I was thinking about the rules of Team Supremacy today. Here's what I've thought up so far.

You do not talk about Team Supremacy.
You do not talk about Team Supremacy.
You can not win without a heavy DD.
Disco is known as Dynas, and vice versa.
Small wangs are awarded to members using a weapon skill while the enemy is under the effect of Perfect Dodge or Invincible.

And before I go, here's some lulz:

Blog Post Before Bed

Don't expect any pictures from this one because I'm far too tired to bother cutting/pasting/saving/uploading/et cetera.

In RL news, I've returned to work! My week off is officially over and I'm experiencing mixed feelings. I'm happy because this means moar monies, yet it also means putting up with... my boss...

Speaking of my boss, it's been two weeks since I've been paid. I should have received my pay check for my work two weeks prior. I understand that it was the fourth and people like to take a vacation, but when you run a business, paychecks are kind of a priority. It's not like he has to do anything! He uses Quicken (or a similar program) to do all the calculations for him.... Is it really that hard? As soon as I have the chance, I'm leaving this awful place...

On a happier note, my new cell phone finally arrived. And I LURVES it. I've been dying for a phone with a QWERTY keypad for messaging, but the fact that this has a touchscreen makes it that much better. I like to call it the iPhone -1.

In the WORLD OF TEH VIDYA, I received an email from Nintendo today. For those that don't know, NoA finally created a North American Club Nintendo (Japan and Europe have had one for quite some time now) last fall. For those of you out of the loop, Club Nintendo is a customer rewards program. Since I'm a Nintendo Fanboy, I hastily registered as soon as the site launched. Basically, for Club Nintendo, you buy a Nintendo product and register it online for Coins, the Club Nintendo currency. These coins are redeemed for lots of neat things such as Wii Remote holders, DS Game/Styli holders, DS game racks, and a DS game (Game & Watch Collection) that is exclusive to Club Nintendo). I've had my eye on the Mario themed Hanafuda cards (For those of you that don't know, Nintendo was founded as a card game company and Hanafuda was their key product).

Anyway, to the point. I attained "Gold Status" easily because I was able to redeem some of the games I registered long before Club Nintendo opened. Basically, after you hit certain milestones for the Club Nintendo Year (I believe it's June-May every year), you receive a free prize for becoming an "Elite Status" member for that Club Nintendo Year. Platinum members get to choose between a special version of Punch Out!! in which your sole opponent is Doc Louis (And is downloaded via the Wii Shop Channel) or a real life replica of Mario's hat. Gold members get a Nintendo themed desk calender. So, I guess that's pretty cool. Free stuff is usually a good thing.

In the world of Vana'diel, I attained level 65! My Polearm skill is a little low (215 when it should be 227), but my polearm merits help out a ton. Regardless, I want to cap it out before I seek for party again. Another thing worth noting is that I have access to Wheeling Thrust now. I can't wait to take DRG up to sky so I can play with it again the sky gods.

I'm looking at you, Suzaku!

This is a Post

Let's start this off on a happy note:

DERG IS LEVEL 60! Are you people convinced that I'm intending to take it to 75 now?!

On a serious note, I have been doing a bit of research on my Derg, and it seems that I need to level BLU to 37 for Derg solo. I am really dreading this, but I can only imagine how useful it can be.

Second, the new add-on scenario's trailer was posted today. It's becoming clear that this add-on is not going to follow the route of ACP. It looks like Square-Enix is sacrificing SERIOUS BUSINESS plot for a light-hearted, fun-filled plot. I welcome this. After all, we have the Moogle equivalent of the Squirtle Squad.

Third, see if you can point out the problem in this screenshot:



Go ahead and look at it closely. I'll give you a few minutes.

Done? Still don't get it? Why don't you look at this important context clue:



Finally, everyone's favorite part of the blog post. (Not really.)

SHAZAM!

IT IS MINE!

The Dishwasher

So, I called work today to tell my boss that my sister has permission to pick up my check. The waitress that picks up the phone takes my boss the phone and says, "I think it's the dishwasher," after I said my name twice.

My lord, I made an effort to learn everyone's names, the least they could do is learn mine. It's not like it's that hard. I'm the only morbidly obese red haired polydactyly in town...
