Monthly Update: December 31st, 2017

So, the month of holidays. It has been fast actually, seems like only a few months ago last New Years day was here. Truly, forget it is 2017 sometimes... Actually started to realize it is 2017, now it is going to be 2018, and going to still feel like I am in 2017... Till about next November. This month though, Star Wars: The Last Jedi came out, been waiting to watch it, and finally did, IT WAS AWESOME! The next day my sister texted asking if I wanted to go watch it at the theater with her... Oops... I kinda felt bad when she asked that, as I would have loved to... But already watched it... It was great though, good movie, and watched Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, it was good too. Though, been working a bit more. Ironically, found out today, my boss thought I was given every Sunday off, till I pointed out I asked for next Sunday off. Good thing I pointed it out. Also, Christmas was good, overall, though worked during my families Christmas dinner. My sister, the artist one, made me a bow, arrows, and a quiver to hold the arrows. The front of the bow has "beware the Dragon" on the front, in draconic. I need to take a picture of it at some point. Because of lack of free time, wasn't able to think of, or get anyone stuff... Which kinda disappoints me, as I really wanted to get my Koko Bunnie something, or make something for her. Same for my siblings... I sometimes suck as a brother, and boyfriend...

Gamer

1. Ark of War - I been playing this more then anything. Since server merge a few weeks back (Or has it been a month now? Not sure), I been growing steadily. I was a strong Bridge level 12, and my friend Dream was also a strong 11 and now 12. One of the strongest 12's in the server he is. I was a strong 13, now I am probably an average 14 (Just to make sure, all these numbers are bridge levels). I just leveled to 14, though still constantly growing. About 2 weeks ago, a Christmas even started. This event has been a blessing! Hardest part of it, is finding these Engines, which allow you to get items, a rare hull you can only get (From my understanding) during the Holiday season event, and Rogers, one of the best commanders (Got both now, thank you Raiden and Rocket, my two commanders who brought the Engines to me). Ironically, both times I was focused on other stuff, not really trying... That is why there is the saying, when you stop looking for something, it will show! I have saved many of these magazines to raise my commander leadership. Plan to put them on Rogers, as I think him and the Holiday Sleigh (The Holiday Hull) will work nicely together. I have also gotten myself the Laevatein Hull to produce more Food, Parts and Cash (The 3 most needed resources in game). Yes, Gas and Electricity are needed for things, but not nearly as much as you need Food and Parts. You use tons of that to research, level Commander Skills, and repair and make troops. Cash is also more important as it is the least made resource, it is half as much as any other resource, so best having it as high as I can. Plus, with Gas and Electricity, easy to get it off other players, as it is the least used resources! Yes, most used in building upgrades, but compared to what you do with the rest, so little is used. Get it from another player, switch to Ares Hull (Or Armageddon Hull... I WANT) and take twice as much resources. If you have high troop lose, change to Holiday Sleigh (Though, Armageddon is only 300% more space compared to Holiday Sleigh's 400%, so might not need the change unless big issues... Ares is 200%) All good Hulls though. If you don't know, all Hulls have their advantages, and disadvantages, so pick what fits you, or the situation. I have also, gone from 2B1 to GOW (Top guild on my server). GOW has 3 sister guilds, 2B1, Des, and most recently I87. Use to have UFO, and a NAP with D2A, not sure if they ever fell under sister guild. UFO isn't part of sister guilds, as all of UFO pretty much joined 2B1. Overall, 2B1 is the growing guild, to push you to higher levels faster (Not rushed either, rushing players is why me and Dream are so good for our levels, I seen a level 17 with less power then me.... Even an 18 only double my power). It is possible to get Armageddon Hull this event, but I don't think I got a chance, as I am unable to pass Rogers in Endless event... He is level 18, I need to get at least level 20 in the Endless event to get a chance for ONE of the three items for it... I have one of the three now, but I need the other two. Overall, I love Walkers, they are Mechas... BUT I think on this game I am favoring  Airships, yet pretty sure Laevatein is made for Infantry. Oh well, got to strategize well in this game to get ahead. I seem to do well, because when I go out to do the Individual events, I tend to kick ass (Most of all, the PvP Kill event). I got most of the commanders I been wanting too, Now just need at least Stella... Which will be a grind. She is probably the best Infantry commander... And since Sensey and Lilith have the same abilities, switched... I think I might just stick with Lilith. So of the Infantry commanders, I think I will stay with Lilith and Stella, Walkers, have much bigger list that I want to look into... Hoodoo, Chief, Medusa... All really good commanders, and there are more... Those are the ones I care more about though. Hoodoo can do massive damage fast with his skills, Chief DOES high damage with his. Medusa is Queen of killer evade. She has two for sure hit skills, but really only needs her 40% (Second Skill) as it gives all her units the for sure hit. Accuracy is truly wasted on her, so buff her up with high damage, and it make up for the low damage increase she gets from her skills. Oh, there is also this Infantry commander Plasma that might be useful... Also Nekojiro... Bullet, all good too, might be good to have them as standby...  Nekojiro's Sniper skill is the one that interests me the most, as it truly might be one of the best against high defense, and health commanders, it just ignores buffs when it hits, and it hits for sure, so pretty much a 3 for 1. Though, even then, don't think I will take him beyond 1k Leadership. Bullet I might, as he has a good skill for combating Tier suppression, from what I seen, the best commander for that, though a Walker commander might be better, as they have increased HP, but would need 40% skill like that. With Airship commanders, I hear tons of which is best, truly, not sure all of which I like best, Rogers, Golem, and Grievous are some of my favorite. Vega and Takeda are two that I am still debating which is better for me, as they both have a Defense Bypass skill, but one increases Defense and Dodge, the other heals. Overall, Takeda is probably better of the two. Blader I worked with, overall passed up, but heard he is a good commander. He has a Tier Suppression Bypass skill, and a 3 for 1 skill, that helps all units, that can activate 6 times, once per tile/square. Some of my commanders, I just like as they been useful... Feel a duty to keep them just because they helped out (Raiden and Rocket), others... Well they nice... But they going to be scrapped when they hit S rank, be more useful in a stronger commander... Which Reminds me... My Chief is kill crazy when it comes to bosses.... Two shots, and he kills all them.... Which means bomb goes off and kills my troops. Never using him, or another Walker S Commander on Boss... Infantry are S Commanders are best... Most of all Stella and The X (Yes, that is the name of one). I have also started helping with the Wiki for it, to keep it more up to date. Soon, I'll even put the spread sheets of data on it, so players can be more knowledgeable on some of the details (Troops and Commanders I am working on, I have started a little late for buildings and research).
2. Pokémon Go - Today, as I didn't go to work because of horrible labor, me and my mom were able to hit 2 raids. Got 2 really good Wailmer, and my first one a bit before that. So far, have Caught 251, and Seen 280. So far, Generation 3 I am collecting really fast compared to Generation 2. Even Generation 1 was slower. At the rate I am going, will have the beginners for Generation 3 to top evolution before all of Generation 2. In fact, only need the Typhlosion for Generation 2's beginners... But Generation 3's beginners are SUPER common around me. Also, I love this new Whether system they have, the raining was great! Got some pictures I need to share at some point, but freezing right now... Got pictures of Ark of War I want to share too... Hmm... Sadly, today, there were legendaries out, for raids, but couldn't get them as no one else showed up... When will I be able to get one... When I have 6 perfectly effective Pokémon to take on that one, along with my mom having the same! I also finally have the Eevee evolves for Generation 2 now. If you guys don't know, for those two, you must walk them 10 km then evolve them during day for Espeon, and night for Umbreon. To top it off, finally gotten a 4th triple S Pokémon! A Pinsir that I named Vice (He had Vice Grip, so fitting, but was thinking of naming him Vice Admiral, but stayed with Vice). 
3. Vikings: War of Clans - I have been growing amazingly same pace as Ark of War, still! Only one level above myself in Ark of War. I don't understand Vikings nearly as much though. Nor do I try, it is kinda of like a slow build up for me on it. Joined a Clan named Dragon Force, which fits perfectly for me, CDragonDemon of Dragon Temple, fits perfectly in that group! Though, don't think I am much use to them, but I try a tad with invaders an Ghosts on it. Been on it everyday, to get the bonuses for 7 days on straight.
4. Battle Pirates - As much as it saddens me, I am not as interested in it as of late... Stressed to much by the changes. I like the changes, but some of the changes happen to fast, that it just wore away what little fun I was having. To many friends have left, and most of it I have became bored of. So one of my friends, an LT in the game, which has been a leader before in a group, and been trying to organize things in my absences I made leader. He says he give me back leadership when I return, though, not sure if I will return or not, if I do, maybe I pick up some tricks from Ark of War (Hopefully not the money spending part... $66... Are you crazy man... That a LOT). Another friend, who both me and him thought he quit first (Always almost rage quitting because of stupid shit Kixeye does). Both him and me were surprised when I left before him, he thinks I be back at some point too, probably will, but might not be for a bit, plus work doesn't give much time to do much on it... But I guess that gives me time to de-stress from it.

1. Dimensional Collision - Really wanted to publish my website before the end of the year, but being busy with work and sleep, has killed most of my free time. Though, listening and reading (A bit) of my Koko Bunnie's stories, is encouraging me to work on my stuff. I love people's worlds, everyone has them, many show them in many different ways; books, games, music, poems, art, and many other ways. It is something I enjoy seeing, maybe why I enjoy  games so much. I love exploring other people's worlds.

I been watching lots of anime lately. One I started last night, because of some music videos (One of the best way to find anime). Looked interesting, so found it, pretty good anime so far, Lord Marksman and Vanadis. Also been watching D.Gray-man's newly dubbed episodes when they come out! Though, I need to remember something my Koko Bunnie wanted me to do. Download some workout apps. Anyway, happy New Years everyone!
