Darkfall

Sea Conquering Imminent!

by LurbyJo on December 5, 2009

NA-1 is down receiving the new patch for Darkfall.  I’m so excited!  I can hardly type this for constant reopening of the client to check for possible server uppage.  I promised I’d put up a post about fun reads while I waited so here it is: The Xanth series by Piers Anthony — I’ve been [...]

How To: Turn A Nerd Girl On

by LurbyJo on December 2, 2009

The Darkfall patch is coming.  Tonight (well, tomorrow morning but since I won’t have been to bed yet it will still be tonight for me), in fact.  I’m trying to watch my *SQUEES* and Qs. I am so super stoked about the magic changes, the AI restructure, the melee and archery buffs, and the new [...]

Arrrrgh!

by LurbyJo on November 13, 2009

For those of you who follow my Twitter or Facebook updates, this is old news. Something was up with Comcast internet for us.  Everything was crawling and we had 300 – 2k+ ping in Darkfall.  We called and they tweaked and it came back so they finally sent out a guy (who had to call [...]

Editor NOT Required

by LurbyJo on November 5, 2009

Someone made me drink a buncha brandy this evening so this post is going to be disjointed and pointless. NEVERTHELESS. I had a ton of fun tonight.  Zealot’s (the alliance Pain Train is in with Black Shields and Blood Thirst) town was raided by a previous allied clan.  I’m not sure what their beef is except [...]

Oh, Excuse Me

It’s always mortifying to arrive at the bank, attempt to open it, and instead find yourself astride someone else’s mount.

Where I’ve Been Hiding

by LurbyJo on October 26, 2009

Darkfall’s been pretty enthralling lately since Jesse got us into Pain Train.  I’ve made a couple new friends in the alliance (though it seems like a lot of them aren’t partial to new people or girls shitting up their testosterone-aimed games).  My favourite so far is Dremlock StraightRocked.  We’d actually met him a couple of weeks [...]

Procrastinatus

by LurbyJo on October 13, 2009

An uninteresting and horrid facet of my fucking ridiculous procrastination issue is that I don’t do things unless I have ALL the tools I might need to do them (and I especially love it if I have to run out to buy them ’cause then I’ve expended all the energy I was going to use to actually [...]

Seriously, WTF?!

by LurbyJo on October 6, 2009

Get ready. *climbs up on her MMO soapbox* Unauthorized third-party programs are against the TOS in most games, Darkfall included.  Often, though, and especially early in games, detection can be rudimentary and rules aren’t always enforced.  But, as should be obvious to anyone who can read, general acceptance does not equal licitness.  It’s generally accepted that young adults will [...]

Boy, Was My Face RED.

by LurbyJo on September 28, 2009

You wanna hear an embarrassing story?  Too fucking bad.  I’m gonna tell it anyway. So, I was rolling into Shoal to meet up with Ken and head out on an epic exploration expedition.  I just needed to grab some shit for spells and I was good to go.  I was busy checking things off my [...]

Lil Jon Says, “Hu-what?!”

by LurbyJo on September 24, 2009

Amazingly, I have been spotlighted on the Darkfall forums by the Community Liaison! *SQUEE* For those asking, I am Gankhis Khan on the NA-1 server.  I’m currently clanless, attempting to learn the PvP ropes (mostly getting hanged in them) and searching fruitlessly for steedgrass (We also have a couple of good friends from EVE who play and [...]
