Possible Albatross18 Updates

Soo since this summer’s anime (and drama - oh dear god Koko wa Greenwood sucked ass) season is poor and pale, in order to fill some more space on this blog I thought I’d expand over to my gaming side. As some of you know, one of my daily activities is playing Albatross18. So in order to fill in some empty space around here I thought I’d post commentary on their bi-weekly updates.

So uhh yea this week they have new swimsuits in Mr. Ecard all of which I think suck except for Hana’s. That’s too bad because I only play on Arin and I only buy clothes for that character. I really hate anything to do with Mr. Ecard because you’re gambling REAL MONEY here. I typically avoid it like the plague and the only thing I gambled was my pang (and won nothing anyway and had to ask a friend to buy me the stupid crown.
) Also pang mastery for a sweet price apparently means -10 astros (so now it’s 30 instead of 40.) Maybe if it was -30 astros, I’d consider it sweet enough to spend money on.

They also released the stupid sandals to match the Arin swimsuit I got a month ago. Wtf. I tried them on this morning and realized they’re not worth spending money on. Also sandals for Max (JP’s character) give accuracy instead of control so they’re not worth wasting money on either. Overall the update was weak and we aren’t going to see another one until July 24th what a drag.
Although from forum discussions I’m guessing it’ll be yet another lame set of swimsuits from Mr. Pee Card.
On the topic of friends actually a lot of my golfing friends are in fact anime bloggers.
And in the spirit of the MAD removal on Nico I made a Futae no Kiwami guild.
Let me know what you guys think of this little “section”. It’s only a once every 2 weeks thing so it’s not like this blog would be flooded with A18 updates. I don’t intend to post updates on Japan and Korea (because Japan will soon be in Season 4
)

hm, posts like these kinda reminds me that i do have an account to play /o/
(since its rly hard to own one in brazil T__T)
it was hard to go back to gamming once i gave up on RO @_@
I’m gettin kinda sick of RO too mainly because whenever I go to hunt somewhere there’s some big party and they screw everything up and leave monsters to kill all of us
So I just go play golf instead, at least you can play with who you want instead of dealing with unknown idiots.
Yay, Pangya!
Lol @ Pang Mastery for a “sweet price!”. Sure it seems like a sweet price for those who are gonna get all that money from the players who decide to spend that many astros on these items for their characters!
Also, wonder how much we’ll have to wait until we get S4. Hopefully, we won’t be stuck with the same swimsuits and gambling items during all this time.
Needs a birthday swimsuit. :3
Taiyaki> Nah, there’s a shit ton of items from season 2 that they never even released so they have plenty of things to release to us - sadly that’s the least of my concerns
xD This will remind me to play sometimes. I’m Meowerchan on there, so maybe I’ll see you? (Though prolly not, I suxors at golf) Still a Rookie though. Dx;;;
Eh, there’s another good reason to not buy any form of Online Currency with real money, the prices on things are fricktardingly high. And then the clothes.
Gawd, the clothes. Gone in, like, 2 monthes. wteff. I spend real money… so I have to buy it AGAIN, and AGAIN.
That’s what I don’t like about F2P MMOs. The stupid cash shop from hell.
@nya: all u got to buy is a clubset, clothes u can buy with online currency =)
(unless u`ve got real badass reflexes, then u`re going to need no money at all =D)
Nyachan> I’ll add you when I’m on tonight. Actually the clothes thankfully don’t disappear after you buy them (whether you buy with currency or real money.) The only “time limit” things are stupid crap like stickers and wallpapers or things like the costumes for your caddies
btw, leave me your nick, i may try to play against u guys sometime =D
*i need some nice ppl to play versus, since a lot of ppl quit on me =/
obs: somehow i seem to be unable to edit my messages after posting
it might be the firefox itself =(
never worked on ff2 and its not working on ff3
anyway, the ajax pops up, and there`s no text on it to edit. the save/cancel button is disabled too
Was This is Greenwood really bad?
berz> well it never works apparently lol. i updated the plugin today so i don’t know if that changed anything but i guess not X_X;
shannon> yes it was REALLY GAY. And I don’t mean gay like Junjou Romantica which is like a BL anime, I mean in a “this isnt a BL anime but its fucking gay and it should be one but since it’s not one I have only haet for it.” xD Also the whole trap thing doesn’t work in drama form - only in anime form. In drama form its like NO you look and sound like a DUDE better luck next time!
@Hinano: Well, at least that’s good. I guess I’ve been with Nexon for too long. Dx I got a NX Cash card for my birthday from a friend, so I was like “I might as well buy some MS clothes.” Worst mistake ever. I saw my char wear them, like, twice, when I came back it was gone. Dx;;;
@berz: xD You don’t wanna know how aften I hit Panya then. xD I have good hand-eye cordination and reflexes. Comes from playing WAAAY to many video games. xD;; I only suck at it cause I phail at Golfing games. Still trying to get the hang of it. I could go play some of the lame boring ones dad has for himself, but they’re not cutesy or brightly colored.
Where do you and random anibloggers play on A18? I drop in every now and then online (although most of my practice is from the Wii game) so I figure maybe I could crash a game or too if that’s cool. Don’t know how half the game works now that it’s Season 3 but who knows, it’s going to be a long and drab summer. XD
ccy: now they`ve made a guild, so go for the guild logo and u`ll find like i did heh
we play wherever (theres no server limitation)
just poke me in game (hinan0)
It’s been forever since I played A18. I’m think I was like Beginner D or something when I left off. But now all my MMO time is being spent with Mabinogi and I’m not sure if that’s gonna change anytime soon.
Though I think this is an interesting little piece, it’ll keep me updated on what’s going on
Ooh new segment, although I don’t play pangya, don’t understand how it would work and don’t know what pang actually is (sounds ominous) I have played flyff so I know about micropayments! bring on the nickle and diming.
pang is the game currency
The Pangs of hunger!
Not violent enough for me.
But I couldn’t agree with you more about the lack of interesting new shows. I’ve watched like 10 and haven’t found 1 worth a damn.
Guess I’ll read a real book. It’s been a while.
lol well its not violent period o_o; the point is to have a relaxing golf game while looking at cute 3d characters
This is your best blog banner ever…
Kooh Kooh Kooh Kooh Kooh Kooh Kooh
Hey, why don’t you have the emoticon from Pangya that’s drooling…
oh well.
Evertone, come play me on Pangya. My name there is Tacitus, like the Roman historian.
Sabrina is a fellow violence lover! Your top top commentspammers are violent!
Now I shall take back the Tacitus and install it into Legion! One vision! One Purpose!
Sabrina> I’ve watched one new show and read the reviews for so many of them and found nothing interesting too. Saito and Louise better get around to sexx0ring like mad rabbits soon or I’ll really stop watching.
@ DGK: Great minds think alike.
I was going to give up on saito & Louise, but I guess I can make it one more year, seeing that there is nothing I have to watch during my anime time. I keep reading this isn’t the last season. I don’t want another life long (Naruto/Bleach) saga on my hands.
I dunno, on the drama front, Walkin’ Butterfly looked pretty decent, but it is a midnight drama, so I dunno. And yeah, summer anime sucks butt this year. The only thing I’m watching is Antique Bakery, but it’s a bit…gothier than I remember the manga being. All organ music-y and crap.
Hmm… the more I look at it… the more…
KOOH RESEMBLES SHANA
Random bored commentary.
