Yes, yes, yes – it’s been a long time since I posted anything. To be fair, it’s been a while since I’ve done much in the game – so there hasn’t been much to write about. I get on every so often to see if I’ve sold anything at the tailor stall, and to keep up to date with anything important. For instance, the roll out of the game on the iPad – fun new way to play, right? Ehh – maybe. I sometimes end up spending too much time trying to remember where things are (like the “go home” button), and when you’re browsing for clothes and the like, you don’t get the little pop up window that tells you details (color names, item age, etc). I also occasionally have trouble hitting the exact spot I want – but I suppose that’s not quite as much of a problem with a full sized iPad, I’ve got a mini.
Back in the I love BK post I mentioned saving trinkets in hopes of the Ringers offering BK dolls — well, they are now, but only for buying dubs. Not the way I was hoping they’d do it, but at least they’re available. I can use the dubs, and every so often they have the color boxes too, so it’s worthwhile. Didn’t get so lucky with spring green boxes, but got lucky with the recent plum box…
The lucky bit was the seal – although I did get a few bits of clothing too, just not these. To complicate matters, after I got this outfit, they offered the first LE sloop in several months. Unlike the the last one (the Serpent sloop if I remember correctly), this one looked genuinely interesting…
The Alice class sloop – you can either go through the looking glass, or you can go down the rabbit hole (the ship comes with a white rabbit already – I swiped Grace Slick from Aloyicious to give it some company). There’s also a chess board complete with a “Drink Me” potion to let you really get into the game. When I went looking for a possible rename (cheapest rename is “adjective – type of fish” , ie, Red Goldfish, Awful Trout, Gold Fingerfish – you get the idea), I came across a fish called the Hata. Unfortunately, someone already got Mad Hata, so I had to settle for Mad Hatahata.
Close enough for me…
