It's time to play the game.....
TIME TO PLAY THE GAME!!
Hahahaha
Hahaha

It's all about the game, and how you play it
All about control, and if you can take it
All about your debt, and if you can pay it
It's all about pain, and who's gonna make it
I am the game, you don't wanna play me
I am control, no way you can change me
I am heavy debts, no way you can pay me
I am the pain, and I know you can't take me
Look over your shoulder, ready to run
Like a cleveland bitch from a smoking gun!
I am the game and I make the rules
So move on outta here and die like a fool
Try to figure out what my move's gonna be
Come on over, sucker, why don't you ask me?

Don't you forget there's a price you can pay
Cause I am the game and I want to play
It's time to play the game
Hahaha

TIME TO PLAY THE GAME!!!
It's all about the game, and how you play it
It's all about control, and if you can take it
It's all about your debt, and if you can pay it
It's all about the pain, and who's gonna make it
I am the game, you don't wanna play me
I am control, there's no way you can change me
I am your debt, and you know you can't pay me
I am your pain, and I know you can't take me
Play the game
You're gonna be the same
You're gonna change your name
You're gonna die in flames
Hahahahaha

TIME TO PLAY THE GAME!!!

The Acid Trip Ends??

For all you young bloods, that don't know what the title means, it's a drug called LSD.
LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide) is one of the major drugs making up the hallucinogen class of drugs. Hallucinogens cause hallucinations—profound distortions in a person’s perception of reality.

I don't promote the use of any illegal drugs, drugs are bad for you, plane and simple.
But my case is this... For a long time I have been hunting, under so many bad problems that almost seem to have the same effects of LSD. Seeing things that no one else can see, like mops, and players that weren't there. Also the "the wand of blink" lag were the lag felt/seem like it would push me back a few cells to a few screens!
After months and months of hunting and ending allot, NC SOFT has finally posted that they are moving there "HARDWARE" servers to a different provider. Im not sure if there doing this to save money, or to fix the growing problems that people have had, trying to play and getting D/c and or super lag. I guess we will find out in a few days.



Anyway did some TOI hunts a few times with many different people in the pledge, tyvm people for hunting with me and keeping me safe. On the first hunt, I kept getting stuck in "Map Tiles" and was forced to reset a few times, which of course takes me to the start of TOI... On the 2nd hunt, I was seeing things on wrong floors of mops and people that were not there. I hope after todays reset that things go back to normal, so that I can have better posts, from better hunts and less death. Anyway check out the one TOI Screen Pic were I went to save Yagan thinking he was stuck in a wall. By the way Yagan was already on the next floor. QQ -(NC-LOGIC)- .

Pets Level and Hackers try?!?

Not much in lineage the last few days just a grind and some basic hunting.
2 of my 3 pets leveled at almost the same time, about 1 mop apart. Jumped all over today from Heine, to Oren to Fire Valley to Dark Elf's in Giran/Heine. Other then that nothing big.
As you all know if your in BnH, we have private forums. Someone from the Saudi Arabia area attempted to hack our forums. Well lets just say it was a very bad idea. BnH 1 - Hackers 0. Until next time, good luck in the game as well as in real life. Who knows what I might post later!?!




The Quote Thing: When you aim for perfection, you discover it's a moving target.

Its not Lineage but wow.. Nasty stuff!

Lineage has been some what slow do to lag and such. Anyway, I want to put in some freaky stuff that I see and follow some times. If your on the west coast USA, your going to want to check this out. Its some weird stuff. Make sure you can view the video on the right hand side. This is not like one of the bogus sites, this is a CBS station. As for the quote thing I got going, ok I will put one below also. Enjoy, and give me some feed on this link. Thanks

Lag= Inadequate network performance = NC LOGIC

Today was almost a waste of time to log in after the server reset. Allot of people on Ken were ending to lag. At the time this major lag hit, there were only 81 people online. I don't know what's wrong with the link to Lineage anymore. I was lucky enough to get my High Beagle to a good level today, and found when I called it, it replied with "Woof! Whew... You're clothes are gonna get dirty". Oh goodness I am so glad NC put all that effort into letting that kind of pet say something that makes sense... NC LOGIC?


Speaking of NC LOGIC... I had a good friend and pledge mate today dismiss her pet by mistake, this got me really angry when I heard it happened, because it has happened to me more then 4 times. I get used to playing mage with summons then cross back to prince and then before you know it I am trying to dismiss my pets. NC please remove that feature all together, no on needs it. As for hunting today, nothing major to speak about, nothing good drop wise, just hung out and fvb pre-reset, then didn't really play after getting back in, way to risky. Please NC if you read this blog, do something for the people of Ken before it's to late, and please fix some things like spells that don't work and even out the OSX performance to match the PC. Oh well maybe I will get back in game later and get some kind of uber drop so I can post it here :P. Good luck everyone in Lineage in any server in any country, remember share with your prince!

Oh by the way I will be adding a quote every time I post. Some from known people some from who knows who, maybe even me.

A New Day, a interview, and a better blog?

I have decide to reopen this blog, and start to interview in game players as well as post of my adventures in Aden. So sit back and enjoy if you can. My first interview comes with great honor for me. It's a player named Molindar, a great player and a great person.

How did you get into lineage and when was it?

Molindar: I stumbled onto lineage while browsing through downloads on Mac OSX website. Shortly after Mac OSX came out. Immediately I was turned off by the complexity of it so I left it without trying it for some time. Then my wife went away with my sisters to Mexico, I snuck out and got a new computer. I was then so bored with Command & Conquer, thats when I downloaded and signed up for lineage, that was in early 2001. For me since I had years and years of Dungeons & Dragons it was the thing I had been waiting for. Character development and video game combined was awesome, is awesome.

What server did you start on?

Molindar: I started on Ken, tried Dep only after I was getting bored with the theatrics and the whiny global as well the drop/mop thieves, without recourse. I got a character to level 10 there before I came back.

What was your very first character in game?

Molindar: I started as a knight, named Molindar, stats of 17 str and 17 con, leveled it to 49.89 or something like that, and died 10x in a row. Those were the days of no buy back and like 10-12% losses on death.
I flipped my lid and deleted him, then made Molindar a full con knight. People thought I was crazy, and they still do.

Can I get some total stats of your hp/mp?

Molindar: 847 hp and 53 mp. My stats now are Str 20, Dex 18, Con 21, Int 8, Wis 10, Cha 12. I have AC sets for 100% Fire - 100% Earth - 100% GMR% as well. What I hunt with is usually base of -76ac. With shield and bless armor its -81ac.

What is your favorite Ac or Wep, it don't have to be the best just what you like to use most?

Molindar: I'm using Val armor and Cloak Of Fire, and 2 ROF. My favorite AC is -76 because I like hunting fire mops. WIth that set up I get 100% Fire MR, and 69% GMR.

If you had your choice to be able to move your char(s) to Loa Or Dep, were would you go?

Molindar: Thats hard... I want to learn to pk , on offense and defense end of it. I like Loa for the amount of people it has on it, but perhaps not the ease of it. Im sure I would level faster and be richer, not sure, hard decision, if I could take Jes with me, I got it! My answer is, wherever Jes is I will be!

If you could give NC Soft an idea what would you like to tell them?

Molindar: Just one?? Omg there are so many. One I have been thinking on is this... Have a player from another server be made a deathknight account that is a mop, and is a hunter of players, can enter towns, use pots ,escapes etc. Sometimes the game gets monotonous, and needs some spice, so a real person controlling the DK, maybe a DK prince so he can recruit, make a chao pledge to hunt player characters.
Think should be able to buy stuff, tele away, use a coi, braves, following me ? But, that person would not be able to use that char on same server as there main char, so they can hunt everyone equally. No Special treatment, but also be able to global to scare the children, and get the juices flowing.

This one is good to, Server Quest, Lastabad DE have invaded as they are now, but in order to keep them back we need to kill 10000 every week. If not they take a town. Now the town they take will be ruined, no stores, houses. Castle stays as a strong hold, and bookmarks stay. In order to get town back, we would need to kill 10000 for 3 weeks in a row, that would renew town or double to get it back in 1 week.
I think it won't be that hard, town would be random, even Aden can get taken over.

Any last thoughts before I close this interview out?

Molindar: Respect and Honor all others, till they disrespect you, then try to fix the problem. Don't take it to personally.

Thanks for your time Molindar!
Molindar became a DK on 08/16/03, and as of May 22nd 2006 is at level 64 ~ 62%+.

Until Next TIme Good Luck and Good Drops people! Play NICE!
