You may have noticed I’ve not really played much in the way of games in the last few days. That’s because my PC’s hard drive has some bad sectors and I’ve been making sure everything is backed up before I take the plunge with a new hard drive and reinstall everything. Anyway. Turnips were 122 bells today, which was (quite frankly) obscene, so I didn’t sell. Gave Margie yet another shirt, but still don’t have an aurura knit for Nan. …
After a bit of a hunt, I found the other spy (there was a load of caverns under the other spy’s house, but I had to wait for a specific time of day for him to appear) and killed him until he be dead. After that, I went back to see Sean Bean and he sent me of on another quest – to find a daedric artifact. Before starting off on that, however, I went back to my house in …
Still no decent turnip price in Cheese this week, with Nook offering me 72 bells today. I don’t know why I bother – it is hardly ever worth selling them “at home”. Bunnie has decided to stay, it seems, as she was unpacked again today. Oh well. Jay is still ill. That’s over a week now. Maybe he’ll die? Or she. It is hard to tell with some of the animals. I mean, Margie turned out to be a boy, …
Rubbish bellage offers again today, with Nook suggesting 84 bells per turnip is a good price. My heart shirt arrived, so I gave that to Margie, and made a half-hearted attempt to convince Bunnie to stay in Cheese. Also found four fossils, and sold them. I have all the fossils in the museum now, so they’re only worth collecting for the bells. Crazy Redd was about, but had nothing in stock that I wanted. Didn’t do much else, aside from …
Played “properly” today, rather than kill everyone in sight. I loaded a pre-slaughter save, you see. So, first task was to visit the woman in the Mystic Archives again, and she told me to come back later. I decided to wait around, and Amusei found me and told me I needed to see the Grey Fox in Cheydenhal. Off I went, and started the next Thieves Guild quest – to find the boots of Springheel Jak. Except he’s dead, and …
Didn’t play for too long tonight, just long enough to check turnip prices (just 74 bells) and to visit a load of my animals. Didn’t have any clothes to give them (again), but did order a heart shirt for Margie. Bunnie wants to move out too, it seems. She can go, I suppose. I have her picture now!
The first thing I did today, was go to Anvil’s castle to see the smithy and sell the few stolen items I had. I bought some cheap, crap, light armour from him, and then went outside and repeatedly summoned a demon, had it attack me, and then repaired the damage. The reason? To boost my armory skills. I’m now a Journeyman, which lets me repair enchanted items – just as well, as all my armour and some of my weapons …
Today, I spent 1,100,000 bells on turnips, which cost 108 bells each. I have left them on almost every space of “hard” ground in Cheese, aside from where Crazy Redd pitches his tent. Turnipariffic! It was also thunder and lightninging today, so I went fishing. I was hoping to get something good, like a shark or something, but no – instead, I got a pirhana, and loads of fish I already had. Rubbish.
Yes, it’s an advert for Pot Noodle, but it passed the time for five minutes: Noodle Miner
Hmm. Kody has moved out (with no warning whatsoever), Lobo has moved back in from my wife’s town (although he’s moaning that I haven’t seen him in six weeks, even though it’s his bloody fault), and I got letters from animals from all over the place. ACE. Still no sign of the knit that Nan wants. In fact, no sign of Nan either. Her house is there, and she’s “out for a walk”, but I can’t bloody find her anywhere. …
Another half an hour of searching later, and I finally found one of the tears. The thing about the tears, you see, is they’re pale blue and the size of a pea. The thing about the floor of Frostfire Glade, is it’s pale blue. So basically, you can’t see them unless you walk around randomly, looking at the floor the whole time. After finding the first, I managed to find the other four within about 20 minutes or so. After …
Started off with a few “housekeeping” tasks – emptying my pockets and putting stuff in my house. I then went round a few towns trying to find somewhere that’ll buy a bit of jewellry that I have, but since it’s worth 6,000 gold, and no-one will offer me more than 1,200, I gave up. Decided then to do the Frostfire Glade quest, which involved walking to a cave north og the Imperial City, wandering through it, and then finding an …
Uh, it’s just like Burnout Takedown on the Xbox, isn’t it? Well, the demo is at least. Yeah, so it looks a bit prettier, but it’s still in speedyfastblur-o-vision. I played the demo twice, and the level you play seems to have a few bits where the road branches a little (more so than just either-side-of-a-barrier like in older Burnout games), and the idea is to keep extending your time by causing takedowns. It was fun and everything, but I’m …
Salvation! ar106 in on-sea (yes, I know that’s a stupid name :P) posted in the ugvh newsgroup that he had turnips being bought for 560 bells. So I popped over, and in five trips made around 5.5 million bells. ACE! Gave ar106 200,000 bells for his time, as well as about 30 lots of fruit. Also met Bruce, Lyzzy and Red there, as they were flogging turnips too. When I came home, I then popped out to visit my wife’s …
