| How went your first day of CBT? Experiences anyone? I'm so sick of school. Good thing Friday comes on the morrow. Hope to join you on the weekend. 'till then I'll leave you with a nice little excerpt I took from Boring School Life[i] written by Yours Truly.
[i]French Class. 12:03 PM.
Been a long week, and this Miss madame is droning onnn and onn. Pretty much been the same boring english-starved lectures for the past 4 days. This guy is lolling asleep in the desk in front of me(funny, because he doesn't nod off forward, he nods off backwards. The first time I saw this, I thought he was trying to headbutt me or something). Anyways. Pencilpusher 5000 sitting in the front row has just cut the madame off with what has to be his tenth question of the day:
"How might I say medicine in French madame?" Of course, he puffs a little inhaler stimulant for added effect.
Before madamn can even finish her dramatic display of exasperation, I interject with another question:
"How might I saw jerk in French?"
Well that got her flustered. Two questions at one time? Might as well have just shot her in the foot and poured salt on the nearest bandage. After a long mental conference with madame and madamn, she decides to answer my question first(someone puffs his inhaler rather indignantly at this). However, my question seems to bring her a little trouble, because she soon grasps for clarification:
"I don't understand. Which kind of jerk do you mean? Like the jerk when you're riding a rollercoaster and you get jerked?' [Insert violent hand gestures here]"
Pause. Resist the urge to say anything, Mike. Resist the urge.
"Wait. You said someone got jerked on a rollercoaster? How much do they charge for those rides?"
Yep. That snapped Mr. Nod-Off-Backwards out of whatever dreamworld he subscribed to in a hurry. PP5000 snorted right through his inhaler. Seems like cheap, crude humor wakes up any high school class nowadays During the initial round of guffaws, I managed to keep a straight face though. Unlike Madamned. Poor lady's face was redder than a knife fight on a fire truck. Embarrased? no. Pissed the f*** off? very. There goes my peaceful year in third period. Nobody ever told me how to say jerk in French." | |

| Starting with no equips no items and only 15k was hell as a mage. If not for partying with rhoku and 2 random mages I would never have been able to do advance. Though now that I have a warrior set up and equipped, I can get whatever money I need for potions by farming mark.
I'm probly gonna just straight farm tomorrow. (only got to 32 because of getting character set and stuff) I'm waiting on quests till 150% drops on weekend. | |

| Let's see I spent thirty-minutes trying to figure out what to do and I eavesdropped on the conversation going on between Falco, Begin, and Rhoku. It's ridiculously annoying to go back to Elgaill town to get your equips; makes starting out in a harder town utterly pointless. All in all a good day I'd say. Lmao at the "jerking" xD | |

| Haha, did the class laugh?
It was good, I thought someone stole our name but it was a bug: all the guild names from CBT I were carried over. I reported the bug to the GM thanks to Begin and the GM's were pleased and we created our guild =D | |

| I'm sure you guys will love to carry poor donut when he stumbles on this weekend Or maybe, tonight, depends on circumstances beyond my control. I may bring y'all some more excerpts from school if I feel bored. I'm trying to be good and not heckle my teachers this year. Heckled teachers don't write nice, fluffy marshmallow recommendations sadly. This is the year for sucking up. | |

| I am now 41 (woohoo) thanks to partying, 150% exp and fixed ice skill. At this rate I should get 55 by end of the weekend. Warlock also doesnt seem quite as imposing as it did. The only problem is that I am going away thursday to Sunday next wekk so, I may or may not make it depending on how long cb II goes. | |

| Good luck. I probably won't be able to touch 2nd advancement for a while. I'm sure you'll have plenty of time, though. Surely, CBT II will last at least as long as its predecessor. | |

| Hopefully CBT2 will last longer than CBTI. I barely got to 50, before they put it into cooldown. Not sure if there are many others that were in the same boat as me. But seriously, all of you are grinding machines. I can't stand more than 3 hours of non-stop grinding. I get really bored D: | |

| Grinding yesterday was really cool though. But only because we were constantly 5 guild mates in a party and clearing the entire map | |

| So I finally got wonderking installed after re-installing about 5 times. Turns out comodo hates wonderking with a fiery passion. Firewalls, they just don't let things go. It's patching atm, so I hope to see a few of you in game in the afternoon. Edit: The advancement was so damn hard Can't kill anything because I dont know where to get armor or weapons. I kill baby pumas, then their parents get mad and crush me with their jiggly jelly bodies of hurt. | |

| Lol Mike.
Comodo always detects intrusions when you download games. >_>
I think at this point you asked someone for help? But if not, feel free to ask. | |

| True. Comodo makes everything seem like it's trying to disintegrate my computer's functions from the inside out.
At that point, I gave up. I only had about a half hour to play around with it anyways. | |
