Steampunk Love

People have been asking me about the 'Free Play PC' Jaclina was playing with in my GGG comic/screenie post. It's about time I introduce you guys to my newest infatuation: Steampunk gadgets!


I got this off an awesome website by an equally awesome craftsman :) I suddenly wish I kept up my carpentry hobby T_T


And this is the CPU! The Victorian-style 'steampunk' parts are as functional as they are aesthetic! I wanted to find out more about this but the website/forum is in a different language :(


And then I found this!!! Gad, wouldn't I love to play Granado Espada in that! I just love how each and every part is so functional! Well, the closest I can get to that is to make a laptop skin, which I plan to do as soon as I get my other projects done and out of the way.

(L-R)Caius feeling conscious, Helina somehow still surprised, and Roque hamming it up for the paparazzis as soon as they got off the 'Leon Limousine'!

I made this manipulated screenshot to commemorate our movie being featured in the International Animation Festival :) Thanks to all who supported our movie!

If you haven't watched the movie yet it's in youtube ^^

Blogspotted!

OMG! Blogspotted! Me!



*faints*

Thanks CM Kaye! I'm glad you liked my post ^_^

"LOL no prob!
Took over blogspotting duties from Hrin, and got a little tired of always picking guides. Liked your post and Hrin agreed it was very cute, so KEEP IT UP!

Kaye"

Ooh, will post again when I check out my very own Item of the Month!


Nyarr! :3
Jaclina the Pirate

April Fool's

There's an event ongoing from April 3-10 where you come up to the Events Support Soldier in Cite de Reboldeaux and answer all his questions incorrectly!


They sure offer the silliest answers XD

I played the daily maximum of 3 times. So I got 3 Liar's Soups! I tried one that says "worthless buff" and got Hrin's Touch! Whee! The other two are "Decrease HP in Bulk" and the other says "Increase SP in Bulk". We now know they're lies, but we still don't know what exactly is the truth XD

On the same day Sir Dan-Pierre bought me a Plait for my scout ^^

Girl Gamer Gathering aftermath

Going to Gamefrog was a leisurely walk for me ^^


Lady Veya greeted me at the door and hustled me in to register.




They quickly gave me the goodies ^^


Then they led me to an available PC to play GE for free!


Soon enough a staff member announced that dinner was served :)


Our crazy ideas lol!


We were introduced to Relly Carpio, who was covering the event for Inq7.net


At the end of the event I was offered free membership :D


Joy and Beany arrived late! I'm happy they came at all XD


Danfilo and Shin(with Beany) also arrived after the event. We proceeded to play G.E. while our wacky factionmates broadcast random stuff in Filipino gayspeak. The win moment was when other Pinoys joined in on the fun! ROFLMAO!


Epilogue: I found that the Bunny Ears can only be worn by basic characters (not RNPCs) so I lend it to my friends since ^^

GE Samaritans

I was doing the Ferrucio Yellow Box quest and ran all over Coimbra twice to find the box researcher in vain.

Yesh, I iz a losted kitteh :3

Google didn't help much. I found plenty of guides, sure, but no coordinates on the location of the guy IN Coimbra T_T come to think of it, is it me? Or do almost all the guides seem to be copy-pasted? /:|

Anyway, since none of my Buddies or Faction mates were online at the time, I did what I haven't done for so long...

I talked to strangers.

Yeap, I see them all the time: players who log on and type on the Group tab of their chat windows. But since most of them are beggars, spammers and verbal abusers, I never paid them any mind. And now, I'm gonna be one of them. Eek. I walked to where players are most likely to stay still long enough: the Market Manager. Well, here goes nothing...

Gatoblanca: "where is box researcher?"

Should I say 'please'? Did I sound annoying?

"over there"

OMG someone answered! O_O

Gatoblanca: "?"

"just cross that little bridge"

I gingerly walked to the closest bridge beside the MM, unsure, "here?"

"yeah"

I crossed, turned to the right, and I saw him.

I slapped my forehead thinking how I ran right past him. Twice. "Found him! ^^" I typed, but by the time I typed again "tnx!" he was gone. That's when I kicked myself for not getting a screenshot of him when I had the chance so I'd know his family name and thank him here.



Soon after I warped to another city, and I found this in the Group chat window:

"Where buy return sheets?"

I didn't hesitate at all, "cash shop".

"What? Sorry, I'm a noob ^^;"

Gatoblanca: "Leticia. Gpoints. Angie? :)"

"Yeah. Is there any other way?"

"As far as I know, no :(" I mean sure, you can get some return sheets from quests, but not enough for Angie, "Better get lotsa gpoints XD good luck!"

"nah, I won't get her after all"

I lol'ed, "Yeah, same reason I decided not to get her either, or Irawan," because I certainly will not back down to hours of grinding and questing and gaming, but spending?? Real money? For quests???



So as much as I would love to play the game thoroughly and finish all quests, I had to pass :(

Anyway, back to the topic: I am glad to learn that there are still a lot of gamers who are willing to help out total strangers without insulting them or calling them a n00b or laughing at them :) So from now on I have decided to help others as much as I can.

Just don't ask me for vis ;)

my Jaclina the Pirate avatars lol

Since I cosplayed Adelina the Pirate I made my avatars look like her ^^

Here's the one I made in Yahoo Avatars:


And here's the one I made in Meez :D

I'm jactinglim

This is the 3D me.
Make your own,
and we both get Coinz!

Female Ele and Emilia GET

I had this crazy idea to collect all the GE cosplayers' in-game versions XD

I started with Brunie Etienne, cosplayed by my dear Lady Ligaya.

Thanks to Baron Shindon for the card! I just got the card myself and will return it to you when we meet ingame :)

Next I got is Adelina Esperanza (cosplayed by me) thanks to Lord Azartras' help! Actually, I cosplayed Adelina the Pirate, but for now I'll just have to make do with getting Adelina Esperanza and buying her a Pirate costume (is presently thinking of making an eyepatch for her cosplay). Sigh, I only wish I could get the Pirate Hat in game as easily :( Is it tradeable? I'd buy it!!!


And then I created a Female Elementalist and an Emilia Guiliano (thanks to Lord Shiinenju) and fitted them respectively with the Robe of Fire (thanks to a Bellem's Box while hoping I'd get the Pirate Hat instead) and Sage costumes for none other than our very own E-Games cosplayers Lady DeSanggria and Lady Veya!



And here's the screenshot of my latest acquisitions (GF, cosplay Beanelli neow! :3 )


I'm still working on getting a Jean-Pierre Gascon cosplayed by Lord Dan-Pierre XD I hope it would be easy getting him his Hat!

The Shiny Armor Glitch

LOL I got this quest where I need to shine armors in Torsche Mansion and after I polished the first one the silly armor kept on er, shining even when I'm done with it. So it kept blocking my screen as I struggled around half blind XD thankfully I got rid of it by saving the location in my warp scroll, going to The Barracks, and resuming the game.

Mar 3, '08 10:24 AM for everyone

Thank you IAH for giving us our 30,000 Gpoints!!! (And sooner than I expected!)

They gave it to us for joining their Machinima contest. I was hoping to win their gorgeous GE external disk for my new widescreen laptop ^^ I'm not sure much of the details at this point... will update when I get more info

Anyway I'm glad that I am able to buy the premium item pirate costume for my Adelina!

I'd like the ATP card itself but let's just say it's too... elusive for me at the moment :p For now I'm glad to get the costume! I only wish I can also get the hat, but if it's too difficult for me to get I'll just make an eyepatch for my cosplay. Anyway, look how much I leveled up since I got my Adelina that's my screenshot from my laptop, with the ATP wallpaper peeking underneath.

Jaclina Esperanza the Pirate signing out... NYARR! :3
