Drug Screening Completed
Aug. 6th, 2014 05:38 pmPretty simple in-and-out process, to be honest -- and didn't cost me a dime, which is nice too. Now it's just a matter of waiting for people to get in touch with me and see how things progress from here. . .
Did some more editing on "In The Land of the Dead," got chapter 3 prepped for last look and uploading, and fixed a really stupid mistake in Chapter 1 of "Forgetting You" that I really should have caught -- "blue inside of grey?" Really, Vic? *shakehead* Well, it's "instead" now, so that's all good. Also been checking in with DragonVale periodically -- nothing much interesting happening. Trying for the Leaf and the Peridot and getting neither. Meh. Also been thinking about how to rearrange my islands to make them actually look halfway decent. Still not sure how exactly I'm going to do that, but it's something to consider.
Hearthstone was my big draw today -- I have defeated my first Plague Quarter boss, Noth! Went at him two times with Jaina. First time he beat me because he kept Counterspelling all my good stuff -- second time, I was a little smarter and did my best to work around his secrets, sacrificing low-level spells and such to get the awkward ones out of the way. I also ended up killing him in an interesting way. You see, in one early match I overfilled his hand and forced him to burn some of his cards when he drew. He beat me in that one, but it gave me an idea. . .I basically forced him to draw all his cards so he couldn't keep whacking me, then let the Fatigue damage finish him off. (He tried to save himself with a "nope, you can't get lethal on me" secret when I tried to kill him with a fireball on my turn just before, buuut that doesn't protect you from the wrath of the card gods on your own turn. XD) I also did the two class challenges for the Arachnid Quarter -- which turned out to be TRIVIALLY EASY. No, seriously, I beat both the bosses used for them in one go. Granted, part of that might have been from looking up the challenges on Hearthstone's wiki to see what I was getting into -- but DAMN, it really was simple! I'm actually thinking of doing a similar deck for my Rogue or Druid for regular play. Tis fun!
All right, I have some RPing stuff to handle -- and perhaps something to look up concerning the next boss in the Naxxramus line. Later all!

Date: 2014-08-07 12:33 pm (UTC)I was thinking about rearranging my Islands too, but then I figured I'd just wait to hit max and the Tenth Island so I'll have a better idea of what I'm going to put where. I'm halfway to
the answer to life, the universe and everything42 and the Tenth is available at 55 so I have a ways to go, but with the new dragons and stuff I think it's better for me if I wait.Speaking of new dragons, I don't know for sure but I think we're getting another one. They posted another silhouette on their Facebook yesterday. Cloud Dragon maybe? :/ I guess we'll see. Edit: Nope! Geode Dragon and it's a permanent addition. Earth + Water, 18h 24m for us. The baby is cute at any rate and at least it's not limited, so I think I'll just keep trying for the Leaf for now.
I think that's about it for now. DC: 325,664,291; G: 111
Tomorrow I don't know when I'll be updating. My brother invited us to go to Six Flags and the water park so we're all taking the day off to do that. At least, I'm 98% sure we are...my mom hasn't told my brother we got tomorrow off yet. She's supposed to tell him today. I don't know exactly when we're leaving so my post will either be early or late, lol. Even something happened with him and he doesn't go, we all got the day off anyway so we may as well do something. :p
Edit x 2: Okay, I'm a little disgusted by this update. Apparently enough people complained about the negative boosts and so they decided to remove the negative effect from Boost Buildings. So like if you put the Lightning Boost with the Water Boost then those Opposites will get a double, but Water would only get one. o_O

Date: 2014-08-08 01:57 am (UTC)I've about halfway-filled the bar for Level 43. The Tenth is only available at max level? Seems a bit of a shame, but whatevs. I actually went ahead and prettied up my Opposites Island because beyond building one more habitat for it for Light/Dark hybrids, I wasn't going to do anything else with it. Ironic I'd do that on the day THEY GOT RID OF DEBUFFS. I -- eh, whatever. I'm still making money hand over fist here. And if it makes the majority of the playing population happy, then fine. (God forbid people have to think, though.) I'd have been happier with Light/Dark shrines to go with the other elements already.
Yeah, I saw! Cute little guy. You know, judging by his description, I wonder if the original idea for him WAS as a Gemstone dragon, but then they decided "nah, people have been complaining about too many limiteds." I'll probably give it a go along with the Orchid once I get the Leaf/Leaf expires.

Ahhh, I see. Haven't been to Six Flags in ages -- mostly because the one trip we went there, we ended up at a rather dirty and dull one. Here's hoping your trip is a lot more fun than ours was!
