The Daily Bits

Quite frankly I am over impressed. I can not wait to get into the crystal city. Come on! Lets see ME Pt III in the July BTS!

Tomorrow we will embark on the journey to wrap up Project Green. I am within 600k of getting 99 Hebrlore, so I will have it tomorrow. I’m going to use this topic to show case some of the pictures up to this point.

You can see the rest on RuneWire.

Tommorow (June 28) after the Clan Wars event I will be getting 99 Herblore. You can expect it to happen at around 3-3:30PM RSBANDB Time/MDT [2-2:30 PDT, 4-4:30 CDT, 5-5:30 EDT, 10-10:30 BST/England]. So this is all the more reason for you to come to clan wars!

You are all welcome to attend the plan goes a little something like this:
1. Me and my associates will hand out Falador teleport tablets to anyone who needs them. We will then hop to world 132.
2. We will then make our way to the lake that is West of Falador where I will get 99.
3. We will then proceed to the Druids’ Circle for the cape ceremony.

After this I’m not sure. I’ll take a poll at the actual place to see what people want to do. My house isn’t exactly spectacular, so if someone wants to let us use your house shoot me a pm on the forums here. I will be moving mine to Taverley for the day just in case we don’t get the use of one.

I was in a video last night on Runescape. The guy said he was filming so I just jumped in. The guy was nice enough to credit me.

Quality is a bit low… but oh well.

I’m just bringing some awareness to the fact that RSBANDB’s amazing race is happening this weekend! We still need teams to sign up so be sure to read the post and sign up on this topic.

Be sure you ask the person you want to partner up with first

I am writing this post from Microsoft Word 2007. A few days back I discovered that the new version of Word has a publish to blog option. o_O Anyways on to some “Daily Bits”, which hasn’t happened for a long time…

This past week I’ve been mainly doing pest control and some farming on Runescape. For farming I got some more seeds which I should have enough time to plant for the Skill of The Month at Rsbandb. I’m currently level 86 and still going strong.

I’ve also been pondering the differences between pest control and actual combat training via Slayer. Pest control is boring and repetitive, you need something else going on in the background in order to make time pass quickly. I was talking on Skype and 50 points flew by rather quickly. Whereas if I’m not doing anything 10 points is very very painful. Slayer combat is probably a bit slower but it isn’t boring seeing as you’ve always got a different task and you have the potential of getting a good drop or level 3 clue item. (This is normally not the case for me, I have crappy luck.) I will probably stick with pest control for the time being.

I think the Mac Book vs. Mac Book Pro debate is finally settled for me. Probably going with the Black Book. Just seeing as the price difference is at least $245, the fact that I have a 7800GT for playing FPS games on my current machine, and that I can easily use a dual monitor setup when at home with it. It’s not like I work with 2560×1080 photos everyday…

Oh and Twitter is currently a dead end. I may start it up again once the new blog design is up.

If you’re seeing this then the MS Word post to blog works!!

First for Flashy Friday this week…

This is a video I came accross on Albinoblacksheep. Basically shows what could happen if you stayed up and played Runescape for 36 hours straight.

You can watch it here.

Finally, after using a flash drive for a year I have discovered that you need to actually click “Safely Remove Hardware” in the bottom right of your screen when you are done with the device. This was causing my corrupted files, which luckily only cost me the last half page of my EER diagrams for my database lab! I should mention that this is built into OS X where it will not let you powerdown until you unmount any USB volumes. Thanks Matt

Two years ago today was the day I logged in to Runescape and found myself to be hacked. To this day I have no idea as to how I got hacked or who the attackers were. I’ve always practiced good internet security etc… Since then my account has been safe and I put valubles away each night. This isn’t to bring to your attention that I was hacked.

The purpose of this post is to remind people to use a somewhat random password, upper and lower case characters, and numbers in it. So let this little reminder be in your mind next time you log in to Runescape.

Well today I thought I’d finally post the video project I have been working on. Here’s a quote from what I wrote on the rsbandb forums.

Well before you jump to any conclusions as to the title let me give you all some background information. There’s a bank in Canada called CapitalOne they have commercials on the TV about how they are not a bank that has their “hands in your pockets.”

So basically what I did is I took the idea from the commercial and made a parody of it on Runescape using the thieving skill. It involved pickpocketing all the monsters I could at my level. (Current level is 65)

I put the video on YouTube as it’s easier that way and almost everyone can view it. So without further delay here is my parody: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T-ggxy2gNs0 - 2:26 Rated G

Then if it was on a DVD you could see this extra footage:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKjeGseRUsA - 2:26 as well, consists of some funny moments and a ride Wink

Enjoy.

So there it is, one of the many things I have been up to recently.
