Prius

Prius just launched earlier this year so I thought I'd do an article on it.  I've been playing it on Skype with my friend all night and I'm about to go to sleep but I just figured that I'd toss up some screenshots of it here first because It's pretty neat.

We started putting together a guild called WhiteRabbit and it's going pretty good.  So far we've almost got 20 people in it and I'm sure it'll just keep growing more and more tomorrow.  Steve already got to level 20 and got a mount so good for him.  I hope to catch up fast so we can run around and fight bosses.
So far I'm up to level 13.  It's a pretty gruesome grind but it can be done.  Apparently your pet, or Animus as they are called can revive you which sounds pretty convenient.  If you want to check it out it's @: http://prius.gpotato.com/

Tibia All Worlds Bug 7/12/2011






     I don't know what to do in the meantime. I've just been running around on one of my alternate characters trying to get freitnzplx with all of the chaos going on. Half of both the warring guilds are all red/black skulled now and it's mass chaos. Just waiting to see how Cipsoft decides to try and sort this all out.

     This bug has effected all worlds now so I think that it is pretty epic.  Aldora Amera Antica Arcania Askara Astera Aurea Azura Balera Berylia Calmera Candia Celesta Chimera Danera Danubia Dolera Elera Elysia Empera Eternia Fidera Fortera Furora Galana Grimera Guardia Harmonia Hiberna Honera Inferna Iridia Isara Jamera Julera Keltera Kyra Libera Lucera Luminera Lunara Magera Malvera Menera Morgana Mythera Nebula Neptera Nerana Nova Obsidia Ocera Olympa Pacera Pandoria Premia Pythera Refugia Rubera Samera Saphira Secura Selena Shanera Shivera Silvera Solera Tenebra Thoria Titania Trimera Uniteria Valoria Vinera Xantera Xerena Zanera .  All worlds effected.  I can only wonder if maybe Cipsoft planned this and they have some plan to track all of the characters that were abusing this bug in order to track down more cheaters and cleanse the lands of all of the cheaters.  It could be a hidden mass effect, but then again with Cipsoft's track record possibly not.  However, maybe something like this happening could lead them to thinking about possibly purposely introducing a bug with proper tracking systems implemented in order to catch the cheaters.  MAY YOUR LOOTS BE EPIC!  GO GET THOSE BOH'S WHILE THEY'RE STILL OUT THERE xD

Runes of Magic

     I've been playing this one for a little while now.  Kind of like Tibia in a way.  It says when you die to pks they can loot some of your items, which sounds kind of interesting.  I'm just frustrated because I'm so new to it and I can't understand how all of these people I got higher level than keep kicking the life out of me.  I'm sure I'll figure it out eventually.  Only idea that I've got on it so far is they either are paying a lot of money in order to get ahead or they've got some high levels that know how to get the really good items and pass them back to them.  I've seen people with armors that were way better than mine, so it's something to do.






     In the meantime, I'm sure it's just a matter of time before I can look back at these screenshots and just laugh at how big of a noob I was.  I hope that whoever is reading this is having fun with whatever game they are playing because I know I am for the moment.  Level 11/11 on my Knight Warrior.  Planning on hitting at least 12/12 tomorrow if I can find the time.

Why I think that everyone should MTURK! \o/

     I've been trying to tell my friends about this service for the longest time but none has ever bothered to try it.  So this is what I am doing right now.  I'm putting together this little page to show exactly what it is like, why it is so cool and why they should do it.

     First off, you know that I am in no way profiting from you trying it, because there is no referral link.  It's just mturk.com, pfft go try it.  See if you can beat one of my high scores for the last month.  I almost broke three dollars in one day, I think I've been up to like seven before once.

     I mostly just moderate images anymore, because I think that it's fun.  They show me a big page of images and I click on which ones are bad and click submit.  BOOM PENNY!  The best part is I know that the money this site promises is real.  At least as much as you can order stuff off of amazon and they will mail it to you, because I've actually done that and it actually came in the mail: ex. Books, Cds, micro SD cards.

     Here is an example of the hits available and the kind of search parameters that you can apply.  I mostly just do the image filtering ones so I just put in 'adult' and then click a little box that will only show the ones I am qualified for so it filters out some more junk.  Then I just do a couple of these and build up a balance.  I'm trying to save up for one of them Roombas at the moment, those little vacuum bots but those ones are like 250$ plus S&H.
