I could have had more if I actually stepped foot in the place.

Besides getting flares added by the auto-merchant-alchemist dude on two longswords, I haven't gotten anything done yet. Probably could have had the chance if I had been ready, but don't really *need* anything altered currently.
-boot alter by Telban
-amulet holder alter by Telban
-mana enhancer alter by Amki
-mana enhancer recharge by Gouthar
-longcoat alter by Sproink
-custom color added to one of Ghule's rings
-censer alter by Verrath
-hazy glass ring recharge by Gouthar
-"refurbished" breastplate by Vaeregost
-custom flask stopper by Durgah
-feature (lips) alter from Guthe
-pants alter from Rhomia
...I think that's it so far.

As far as prime goes, nothing. The only time that I have set foot into Ebon's was to enter a few raffles. The thought of sitting in a room with 200 other people makes me want to punch myself in the face. In Plat on the other hand . . .
-Had a ring altered
-Had some pants altered
-Had a flask altered
-Had a 4x flaring longsword upped to 5x
-Had my armor lightened
-Had a satchel altered
-Had a feature alteration
. . . and now I have 12k in the bank, so I think I am done, heh.

Two sets of prayer beads made
Got my leathers enchanted to 5x
One feature alter for Nilandia
Three feature alters for my cleric (one of which to correct another)
Stopper done for a flask
Raffle win for a disk changer
One participation prize for a Spirit contest
Two placement prizes for a Spirit contest
Probably forgetting others, since I'm going off the top of my head.
All that, and I took Sunday off to make the Jugg list.
And I suddenly feel like a merchant chaser again. :lol:

Well I brought both of my accounts in and between the two, I've had..
a skirt altered
a blouse altered
a jacket altered
a handbag altered
boots altered
a dagger scripted and altered along with a sheath
I'm attempting to have an amulet holder done now so we'll see.
Edited to add that I also got some unlocked scripted dancing scarves.

and how many hours from Friday at 9:30pm till today would you say you were on for it all?
Me... Prolly 15 hours
2 things.
Won a Lirion bow in a raffle and had my backworn surcoat altered into a doublet, although I really wanted a gambeson.
Jolena
11-09-2005, 02:46 AM
Just got the wristlet amulet holder done by Rhomia so add that to my total. And I'd probably say around 15 hours or so is accurate.

I won a bow from the raffle, found a magical instrument, got third place in the bad joke contest, and that's it. No alters, though I've got three I'd like. I'd really like to get my bow altered, as it's elven and neither of my archers are, but I really can't complain. Someone was really ticked that my empath won the archers' only raffle, but she IS an archer.
I was with a friend yesterday while one of the GMs was debugging the scripted katars. My friend and another guy both got their katars fully unlocked for helping out. I thought that was awesome of the GM.

I haven't really bothered too much with merchants. Been too busy. I did manage to get a skull ring from Togrun and a forging apron altered though. Too bad I don't forge. :lol:
Tromp
11-09-2005, 12:01 PM
Hmmm lets see
So far I've spent about 1.5 hours in Ebons since Monday night. I missed the whole weekend and will probably miss all of the other good stuff.
I bought some cool breastplate armor.
No alterations since I absolutely stink at finding them :loser: :violin:
All in all I'm feeling pretty good about it. :cry:
I need to just latch onto a successful event person and let them drag me around. Any takers?

Where did you get the beads made? I'd love to grab each of my clerics a pair.
Thanks!

11-09-2005, 12:59 PM
Hmm...
Cloak lightened and made closeable by Nancee.
Double leathers altered by Rhomia
Stopper on lifekeep flask by Durgah
Scroll case altered by Cadaverous
Temporary padding by Monkia
Crystal ball activated by Ghastlee
A couple of 1x polearms and a -1x polearm while digging. (I can't remember if there's a use for a -1x weapon.)
Not trying for anything else, except helping a friend get a feature alteration.

Big zilch for me. I've bought the hidden sheaths that Ent really wanted, just need to pick up one more item I'm gonna have to find a map for to find it, then I think I'm done.
Would help for me to sign in the lands too, for a chance with a merchant. :shrug:

I was only in for the first two days (I'm on a gay buisness trip now), but I got:
2 enhancers charged.
4 general alterations.
1 lightening service.
1 spike flares added to gear.
Some other stuff I think.
Stunseed
11-09-2005, 09:13 PM
< 2 enhancers charged. >
Ugh. That's the one service I really wanted. Will they create an enhancer for you, perchance?
StrayRogue
11-09-2005, 09:15 PM
Lol, considering an enhancer is 1-2 years of premium service, I doubt it.

Fuck. I lost mine in a time-warp when they first came out, and no GM will replace it. I am sad.
StrayRogue
11-09-2005, 09:20 PM
Shame, they just raised the cap on the max potential of skill/stats. I'm pondering getting three +7 Strength items when the Prem points system comes out.
I thought you were leaving, Stray.
Good shit that you're not. But I dunno why I got that impression.
StrayRogue

Making over a grand from a computer game prompted me to stay and do it again.
After spending more than that IRL on my character, prompted me to do the same.
Good to hear, man.

In Plat I was out friday night when it opened, so I didn't get any time in there. Saturday I spent about 3 hours in the festival, the same goes for sunday. During the week I probably spent about 1-2 hours a night in game, so I was either hunting or if a merchant announced himself I was in Ebon's.

The table in Ghules is trying to *work* Michiko.....
The raffle table suddenly begins snuggling with Michiko's leg and purring. How odd!
Who won the Ghule raffle? The one for the last cloak?

Man I was picked by infinity tonight, don't even know what time. but I fell asleep on my keyboard. I was exhausted from work and the hours these merchant show up and amount of time you have to wait in line up is not very considerate for the working class. its like 6:00 am and I have work at 9:00 am :(
I did.
I think it's buggy, though, it doesn't work with the boomsticks he claimed it would work with.
Shalla, you need people you can manipulate into taking over your character when you're about to die at your keyboard.
I find promises of cookies or British breakfast cereals through the post is enough to secure their willingness to help.
My friends who know nothing about GS would think I was nuts if they knew the dedication and time I commit to a text game.
I even had to speak quietly with a WoW friend at work, becouse we we're a bit scared we'd be umm . . misunderstood.
Anyhow, festivals and merchants are all about staying up all night.
It's half the fun.
Shalla
11-11-2005, 07:39 AM
It's one of those I'm all excited.. then wait wait wait.. maybe I'll close my eyes for a sec and then wake up hours later.

400 charges on fgb by Monkia

Had a wing alter done for my empath last night as well. Add that to my list.

beltworn sack deepened to VLA
cloak lightened to 3lbs
That's it, but I wasn't expecting a bunch from this. Toooo many folks attending to honestly expect more than a couple.
And Shalla...that sucks doll. I was like "wow she's gonna be pissed."

11-11-2005, 02:50 PM

No shit? Wow, nicely done.
Stole, two gowns, a longcoat, three feature alters, a case, a minor mechanical quiver, armor alter, a skirt, a satchel.
Not much for an event of any magnitude, in my experience, but I'm pleased. Of course, it would have helped if my connection weren't insanely burpy over most of the week, but we do what we can.
Jolena
11-12-2005, 03:38 PM
Had a feature alter done last night for Jolena and a dancing scarf altered for Alania, to add to my list.

11-13-2005, 06:44 AM
I came away with 10 lighten services, 7 deepens, and 3 alters.
Not too bad I guess.
Finis
I bought 2 raffle tickets!
I couldn't even bring myself to look through the shops, nevermind wait for merchants. I just wasn't prepared or interested enough.
For the wavedancer I'm going to take holiday from work, turn off all my phones and sit at a desk made entirely of snack treats. :)
FinisWolf
11-13-2005, 07:06 AM
I hear you Shim. I was not interested in shops either, hell, why buy something at Ebons when everyone and their mom could have 100 of the exact same item?
Finis
EDITED to say, I can't even begin to tell you how many millions I spent on raffles. Running 7 to 11 accounts throughout the fest can really get expensive at raffle time. And what did I learn? No matter how many tickets I bought, I STILL didn't win a damn thing! LOL

...a little under a week later....
Flares for two Thousand Cuts longswords, both got unlocked, cloak got scripted by Ghule, got my Aelotoi's wings alterd (woot!), and now I'm just waiting to see if I can catch Vaeregost to alter a bow I brought from his store.

FINALLY got my armor done by Amki. She did some work today for those with 0 or 1 thing done all week, and I managed to get there in time for a change.
It had been altered by the previous owner, and the show was SO not fitting for my character, so I changed it.
Some fitted obsidian black brigandine
Designed with subtle elegance, this armor is stained to the deepest of blacks, and its straps and buckles discreetly hidden. Each component blends seamlessly, one into the next, creating a smooth, fitted line along the entire body. You also notice a small enchanter's glyph.

got the warrior's plate lightened to 27 lbs. That's pretty darned cool.
