Back online! Been a few days…

 

Everquest

If you’ve known me for awhile, you know I’ve been smoking EverCrack for about 9 years now, and I think it’s time to start to include EQ in my blog now that I’m playing regularly again..

 

 

Bewboo - This is what my screen looked like the majority of the day. I started off with me daily quest (got a the mantle (below)) and I got hooked on the hobgobs for the daily exp grind. I think I got revenge for all the times they pwned Bamlador back in the day. Amazing how times change and I rip these apart at level 57/58. So I pretty much spent the whole day in Plane of Nightmare, and collected experience, iron and meat. I leveled 59 and ended up getting the 5 AA for Hobble of Spirits (YAY I CAN SNARE) … goals will change surely…

 

 

EQ Goals:

1.    Level Bewboo to 59 and Hobble of Spirits AA

2.    Trave – work on master baking trophy

3.    Bamlador – Progress in Epic 1.5 quest

 

Other Games

 

Mafia Wars (FB) – Leveled 204… I like the new interface… so much less lag

Café World – made level 44 (Pots and Pans Cheiftain)… My nemesis and old eq buddy has vanished from the game, and I am soon to come back… muahahahaha

Ponzi, Inc. – Now this is the first blog entry about this game. It’s a neat little business simulation that I’ve attached myself to lately. Apparently I’m the only of my friends that care to play it, but I enjoy it. I made level 8 (Assistant Director) and its quite a fun game, even though there’s no one to challenge me

 

Math

Sorry math fans, have really been slacking in this department, but will update tomorrow.. Should have the first section of Algebra COMPLETE (yay)

Looong day… tomorrow will be a shorter day, so might actually get some things accomplished. I did upload 4 no audio math slides, but nothing significant on the gaming front.

 

Files uploaded:

P_4A.ppt

P_4B.ppt

Hopefully will get some recording done soon…

I’m really going through some serious Everquest withdrawls… I quit for years! (and I still payed for it) ironic, I can’t pay for it, and I want to play… Wow just doesn’t have the endgame… it can rot (sorry WoW fans)

 

OK… I didn’t level anything in any games today and I still haven’t worked on math… I’m a slacker

 

BUT I’ve been looking at A = LU factorizations (for those hardcore math people that understand that equation), is fascinating me and I tried to look at a Strang’s Lecture 4 linear algebra, and maybe its just one of those things I’ll never get… Elementary matrices blow my mind, but they’re elementary… I should practice more… it’s a very hard concept to teach…

 

Looking to teach at Tivy, will send resume this weekend… other schools hiring too… looking hopefull…

 

Sorry VC, I gotta move on

Yes yes yes I am the inevitable blog slacker… Holidays, company, life, etc… Anyway I try…. I probably have less dedicated blog readers than I do blog writers J anyway

 

So my classes are slowly slowly dwindling down in population… My Night classes are still kickin though. Day classes not too happy about, and my day class was doing so well..

 

Moving into the decimals realm in I-1 and quadratics in I-3 realm… and I’m still “faking it” through reading and writing… Fundamental math I just took over is interesting… that’s really all I have to say about that class..

 

I have not even touched my algebra project since Thanksgiving… I’m such a slacker! Back to it tomorrow maybe

 

Everquest is on hold until the 15^th until I get paid so I can play… lifes a bitch eh? Bewboo level 53.. found a friend and guilded them and account poofed… great… love playin’ that beastlord class though, will be back to it in two weeks.

 

Café world… my lord, my nemesis totally started to kick my freakin ass over the holidays… and is now a good 12,000 points ahead of me… I fear I cannot catch up..

 

Mafia wars.. my interest in this game is slowly dwindling away… but I made 203 and I am trying to grind out that Boss tier… not to much more to go so it may pick back up.

 

Farm town.. now here’s a game I just about gave up on… then they changed it and made it a bit easier to level… added levels, crops and things… a second farm. Farm #2 at level 44 (I’m 38) so I’m back there daily, trying to maintain crops that limit my time…

 

Fish world… made level 42 (Kingfish VIP) and got the main tanks back and added some more sharks… Sharks are good, just bring them up and make money without clicking or losing money… more sharks, faster they clear the tank (and yeah its fun to watch)

 

That’s about all I got.

thanksgiving

I hope everyone had a wonderful thanksgiving… mine was wonderful, my family visited and I cooked yams and lambs (ok not really) … porkchops and yams, my mom made some crazy cheesewiz rice casserole and we had a nice visit together in my small little apartment… updates returning soon… everquest on hold for awhile while I make some financial changes (yeah those)… farm town updates change my motivation to play… and my rival in Café World totally overcame me on my hiatus during the holidays… did no math either… back to teaching and actually gonna apply for some jobs on my day off…

 

I hope everyone is doing great!
