Day 8: Spinnewebe

I'm getting a bit tired of it, but I've calculated and I'm at a third. The monster bait move was a smart one, and also saving my custom web catcher outfit. I've got the impression I'm getting a lot more webs.
I used a purple snowcone and spent 20 turns at the Knob Goblin Kitchens to stack up on foodstuffs and cast close to twohundred turns of Empathy.

Twitch (my attention-deficit demon), has 331 kills already, so that's helping a lot too.

Day 7: Monster Baiter

I caved in and got the monster bait. I was a bit sloppy today with equipping the plexiglass pants and such, probably cost me a couple of webs.

Also, meat is getting somewhat of an issue.

Day 6: Sticky

I can't believe I forgot to PvP...again!

At least I did get myself a nice number of webs, and my ADD is getting bigger. I really should think about the monster bait.

Day 5: Caught in a Web

Actually, that is "catching webs". I got tired of not getting the right scroll in the valley, so I switched to collecting webs.

I managed to save 3 gourds, before I ran out of adventures. The drop rate was terribly low, even with all my drop-enhancements (Plexiglass Pants, Monocle, Attention-Deficit Demon). I'm thinking I might get two extra things. 1) Espresso-Machine (or whatever is the custom item of the Demon). 2) Monster Bait, so that I'll get more combat adventures.

Day 4: Up and running

Yesterday I didn't log in at all, so today was a great opportunity to use moxie day, to the fullest. I got to level 9, with all the quests up to level 8 done. My next goal is to save the Baron of Rofl'mao. I got cocktail-crafting so I can craft cool cocktails, and also got a hippy outfit for that purpose. And of course PvP.

Another interesting thing was fighting with boosted moxie against the bonerdagon. I had to use a slingshot. That was the most powerful ranged weapon I had. To shorten the fight, I brought along my grue :-).

Day 2: Post 301

Nice amount of posts, already.

Today, I wasted a lot of turns recovering the red pixel potions. I did finish the Friar's Quest and made a chef-in-the-box AFTER cooking. Oh well. Vodka martini's from the Microbrewery were too amusing to not imbibe.

I autosold my red pixel potions (and blue pixel potions, but that's off lesser concern).

Woe is me!

Day 1: A New Hope

So, another Disco Bandit is me.

Some minor changes have happened while I wasn't blogging, most notably the Leaflet and off-handing of items. It won't change my strategy all that much.

What was a great move was to keep Tenacity. It allows the lowly moxie classes to do some decent damage. Ranged fighting soooo sucks. My luck had me ascending on a mysticality day, but no clover. In fact, today is the day in which people will be trying the one-day ascension attempts.

In HC, I didn't get quite that far. I have the Deep Fat Friar's left as quest, but have finished the DD and all pixels already. A nice move was using my purple snowcone while farming for pixels. The gained MP were used to stack up nicely on Empathy and Tenacity.

Seeing as how I'm planning to go for Gourdcore, I deliberately got a lead necklace. It can be used both for the bat as well as the pixie. I have to decide when I start farming webs. My plan is to do so as soon as I can equip the pants, which shouldn't be that far away.

I ate a spicy bean burrito and 2 spaghetti with skullheads. That's good eating. Drinking Calle de Miel from the Tavern Quest and two beers, finishing off with the old friend IPA was a good way to spend the drinking day.

p.s. We'll see how well I keep up the blogging.

Day 20: Time Warp

I had a bit of disenchantment with the game and also blogging. I did continue to play however and finished my third run in 20 days.
917 turns spread over 20 days as a Hardcore Oxygenarian Disco Bandit under the blessing of the Platypus sign were enough.

Enough is enough. I'm ascending into regular HC (forgot I planned teetotal, then again, it ain't a clover day) as a DB and going for the Gourdcore Trophy.

Kawaii!

As skill to keep, I picked Nimble Fingers. I was getting so annoyed by running out of meat all the time :-)

Day 2: The challenges!

I got an item from the DD, sneaky Pete's. I also finished some quests, dallied a bit at the sewer and just generically did stuff. Pretty amusing, but probably not 100% effective. I did end up with a shit-ton of meat, which is always nice.

My big boost is going to be saving for moxie-days, so I'm not all that worried about the implications of not being so efficient and adventuring on a stat day. I wish however that I had gotten the moneyclip instead of the monocle from Ratsworth, but, oh well.

My only regret is not getting the Meat Maid. Fighting at the Treasury gave me just a tad too many non-combat meat adventures. Not bad, but it didn't get me to level 6 in time. I'll get one tomorrow, though.

I broke my stone and attacked 10 people, if you haven't broken your stone, you apparently don't get the +3 from the hamethyst. I did have the meat and spleen for 2 Hatorades, so I got myself 12 flowers. Stupidly I put them in my store, instead of building up my campground defenses. Something for tomorrow.

While checking to write this post, I have already been attacked 3 times.

Day 1: A Disco Bandit Is Me!

Did all the basic stuff, but had to split half-way through, so I couldn't write my regular post. This is going to be a chill ascension. Funny thing about ascending on Muscle Day as a moxie class: High muscle :-)

I was a bit unlucky with my stones: Only hamethyst and porquoise. So I made a hamethyst necklace and porquoise bracelet.

Day 19: Oxygenarian Ascension

I forget the details, but it was pretty much as planned, when I finally had that fence (from Whitey's).
I've got a bit of a high-turn count from the meatfarming I did after breaking the prism. About 60-70 advs on top of the regular adventuring

Ascended in 1008 turns, spread out over 19 days, under the Hardcore and Oxygenarian paths.

I also got a decent PvP record.

Day 18: Moo!

No fence today, my luck has gone away.

I spent all my time at the Shore, which was wrong. According to the forums, I should be Groving it out.

I stuck people on my pike with a certain amount of glee. Actually, it was not appreciated by all, I got a mail from someone who felt unfairly targeted for consecutive days. I didn't notice him in my new target list, so I didn't have to actively skip him.

I think I accidentally made a few rank attacks.
