Wolf's Diary

[Wolf]

Hey EF!

1st..old news. My dentist appointment was actually worse than expected. The hygenist was actually stopping during my cleaning to converse with me. I don't mind 'friendly' in fact, I appreciate it. Nothing worse than going some where you don't like in the first place and then have to deal with crabby people besides. But, she was acting like we're old friends having coffee or something. I don't know what people are thinking sometimes.

2nd...new stuff! Nothing to report here. Same old, same old. Probably do some hunting later...

3rd.....What to look out for. I see that Devil Doll has finally started a diary. Keep your eyes on this one folks. I have a feeling it'll be very enlightening.

ps...Just tell me who it was Sveta.....I'll handle DD's light work for him...

L8R EF!

Hey (again) EF!

Normally I wouldn't post to my diary twice in the same day but, I had a really good PE experience and just had to share.

I was out east of Argus hunting Maffs and Bimbos. Loots were not good. I later hooked up with a soc mate to go hunting Walruses on the new continent. Loots still sucked and when we went to leave I got bit by the 10-to bug and recieved the dreaded "Internal Error" virus! You're confused, aren't you? You're saying, "Yep. Old Wolf's finally lost his mind." I havn't seen anything good yet. The good thing was that, while I was east of Argus getting nothing but broke, I bumped into Darkscorp and Rose from Clan Deathstalker. These have to be two of nicest people I've run into in PE yet. I'm sure, if you've met them, you'll agree. We had a very nice conversation about stuff other than PE. I know, I know, had to believe but, it's true. We did discuss EF a bit. Rose reads but, doesn't post. I tried to assure her that we're a friendly bunch and that I would see to it that anybody giving her a hard time would answer to me. No...I don't think she bought it either but, I tried. (Hi Rose ) We then went our seperate ways but, I feel my PE life has been enriched by the encounter. As a lot of us have said many times, the people really make this game. DS and Rose, the pleasure was truley mine.

Good night EF.

A stranger is just a friend you havn't met. (I know...I've used this one before but, under the circumstances, it bears repeating.)

Howdy and Happy Father's Day!

I'm the luckiest Dad in the world. It is not our practice to do BIG gifts on the more minor holidays such as Father's Day, Mother's Day etc. I guess the rules have changed! For doing my duty as a father for the past year I recieved the following:

1 Box of Captain Crunch w/ Crunch Berries. Yumm!
1 Bottle of Starbucks Mocha Frappachino. Store bought but, still delicious!
1 Box of Fudge Covered Oreos! Which are sitting here with me at work.
1 Homemade Tyedye T-Shirt. Made by my younger daugter.
1 Homemade Father's Day Mix CD. Made by my older daughter. Listening to it as I write this.

and finally...

1 Magnavox Progressive Scan DVD/VCR Combo!!!!

I was speechless. I know...me...speechless! It was totally un-expected, exactley what I wanted and totally deserved if I may say so. (not) I hope the rest of you Dads out there made out as well as I did today. Of course this all happened in the 15 minutes we had before going to church, then out to breakfast with my in-laws and then all the way out to my parents for lunch, then back home so I could change and go to work. Wheww! long day but, a good one. Now lets see if I can get into PE!

C U EF!

Hi!

The good news is that I was able to login to PE. No answer from support concerning my 'Internal Error' status but, I got in so who cares. The bad news, of course, is that the loots are still less than stellar. I did get 28 ped from a Molisk Raider. Little bugger killed me once but, I found him. Good thing to since that was my best loot of the night.

The rain has finally stopped here so, you know what that means...more yard work. I know Sveta...big shoulder muscles. You think digging makes your shoulders hurt? Try trimming tree branches with one of those 12' trimmer things. Wow...am I feeling the burn today! Still sunshine, fresh air and exercise...I guess it's not all bad.

Some critter has invaded my wife's plum tree...is she pissed. Hopefully my father-in-law, who has the biggest green thumb in the entire free world, will be able to figure something out.

Going to our family cottage for a couple of days. Looking forward to going down to the dock with some cold beer and a good book and forgetting all about rl stuff for a while. Maybe do a little fishing. It's what summer is all about. We'll be spending the week of July 4th down there. No PE of EF for like 10 days. I hope I survive.

One final note to clear up something. Not that this has been mentioned by anybody or anything. I re-read my diary from time to time just to get a more distant perspective on how what I've written here may look to others. I tend to refference other EF'ers. It has to do with my writing style (according to my wife). I don't want anybody to think that I'm showing any favoritism or anything like that. I refer to people that I know read my diary and that I've got something to say to concerning this or that from other threads. I'm only mentioning this because, from a certain perspective, it might seem that I'm obsessed with Svetlana or Ultimababe because they're in here quite a bit. I'm not...it's just the way I write. I've always loved reading works by authors that speak directly to the readers in their stories. Or movies when the actor jumps out of character for a second to say something to the audience. It's kind of a reward for watching or reading. I guess that's what I'm attempting to do. Anyway...that's all. Just 'Crazy Ol' Wolf' being paranoid.

Adios.

Hey EF.

The big news today is that Dogg and I finally got our first uber HoF. 953 ped on a molisk young. Now, I'm totally stoked by this and I am very happy to only have had to split it 2 ways but, a molisk young.......why have I been wasting my time and money killing Atroxs, Longus, Ambulimaxs, Armax....etc. when a molisk young is gonna pay me like that? I know...luck of the draw. But really, does this make any sense? I guess I shouldn't complain...it was a really nice HoF. Bought a better FAP (FAP 83) and a shotgun (ASG-1 Pig) with my share. I needed a better FAP, my FAP 50 just wasn't cutting it. The shotgun was a splurge just for fun. I'll probably have to sell it next week for ammo but...what the hell. It's only money after all.

IRL news, 2 more days of work before vacation. Gonna spend 10 glorious days on the shores of Lake Chautaqua. This does however mean no PE or EF. Oh well...I can't lose money if I'm not playing right? Hopefully, the new vu will be here when I come back. That will bring some change...good and bad I'm sure.

Personally, I like VU time. Change is good. It keeps you sharp. It keeps you learning. Even bad change can be a learning experience that will benefit you later on. Maybe I just have an older persons perspective on this but, I also know I'm not alone.

Anyway, this is probably my last entry before I go away so...have a good one EF. HoF and global your asses off, cause when I come back, they're all mine!

Peace.

Hello EF.

I'm back. Actually I've been back for a couple of days but, I had some stuff to catch up on before updating my dear, old diary. Chautauqua Lake is quite possibly the most beautiful place on Earth (that I can afford to visit anyway). My family and I had a ball the entire 10 days we were there. Swimming, fishing, reading, relaxing...we did it all. It was tough coming home. Here are a couple of pics from the trip. I know how you folks like pictures....

Me goofing around. Yes...that's my first beer of the day. I knew what you were thinking!

and this is one of the many sunsets we were privileged to behold.

We are really lucky to have a place like this to go. My kids will cherish the memories of our cottage on Chautauqua Lake for the rest of their lives.

Back to good ole' PE stuff.

I bumped into MickeyBlueEyes aka Aweb while he was doing some home decore shopping. Had a nice little chat with him.

I've also recieved a request from Laughs At Blood to join our society. I havn't forgotten about you. I don't always see these people everyday so, I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

Incidentally, if anybody else is interested in joining our merry little band, feel free to send me a PM and I'll pass your request along to the rest of The PACK for review.

I like the new VU so far. I can't wait to go on a Robot Ship Quest. That sounds pretty awesome. I didn't do a whole lot to Wolf as far as alterations go. The little guy is damn near perfect...why mess with a good thing. When tatoos come around...well, we'll see.

Other than that, I'm just happy to be back.

See ya around the watering hole EF!

Hey.

Not really much to report on today. Hunting is in a down slump for The PACK. I'm losing PEDs faster than Brittney Spears loses respect. (Oops...did I say that out loud? I just meant to think it...) I've been slowly removing things from inventory to supply my hunting habits. I'm not at all happy about it. On an up note, I gave crafting a whirl the other day. It's kinda fun...I guess. Made some Jesters and 1 Maddox 1 after I looted the BP that is. Of course, All but 1 Jester and the Maddox got TT'd for ammo later on but, I still got the skills. Something different to do.

Oh...I almost forgot to mention, Dogg (our soc leader) gave me a belated B-Day present the other day...A minor TP chip! It was a total surprise and one that was really appeciated. Now all of us higher ranking PACK members have 'Hot Chips' as we call 'em. It's really cool and very addictive. Thanks again Dogg! Now I've go to start sweating again to make ME.

My disciple is up to 25% completion on his mentorship. I've promised him a set of Rascal armor at 50%. (I hope I've got the PED for it when the time comes... )

That's it for now EF! L8R.

Dear Diary.

Once again I've experienced the joys of being the squeeky wheel that gets the grease. After complaining in my last entry about how bad hunting has been, I proceeded to hunt tonight anyway. After selling everything in my storage that I was willing to part with, I went to Echidna. I headed out east to get chickens (Berys) and bastards (Feffs). To my shock and surprise the loot was going well. Everything was dropping gold for me. Not just ones and twos...fives, tens...skins, paint etc... Then it happened...an 82 ped global on a Feffoid Bandit. Huzzah! I shouted and quickly took a screenie. I continued hunting in the same area. The loots were still very good so...why leave. Then it happened again! A 330 ped HoF on a Berycled Provider! OMFG! I thought...could things get any better than this. I won't bore you with every little detail but, here are a few other highlights. I went up a rank in Marksmanship (Experienced), I gained a health point (109), I found some dung (120 in one pile!) and I found some Angelic Grit...never hit any of that before. It was the best night hunting that I've had in a long time. There was a Kaze table in the HoF by the by...worth almost 48 ped. Anyway, it's time for me to crawl back to my den for some shuteye. Just had to share a positive story.

G'Night EF! Pleasant Dreams!

Wolfucious Says:

When in doubt, BITCH!

[Wolf]

Geezz! I'm almost on page 2 here ffs....better get busy.

I worked a double last night which also gave me double hunting time. I wish I could post that I hit a 1000 ped HoF on a Chirpy Young or something but, sadly, that didn't happen. Let me tell you what did happen. I did get a 93 ped global on a Cornundacuada Mature. I also, through the course of the night, went up 1 rank in the following skills:

Handgun
Perception
Prospecting
Laser Weapon Technology
Mining
Dodge
Inflict Ranged Damage

In addition, I also "Investigated" my first robot spaceship! I got the 50 ped which was much appreciated but, mine was also a little unusual. It was under water so the drones just kept drowing...or is it short circuiting?

I did some more crafting as well. I've got a whole ton of Jester D1's now. I was thinking about taking them and an equal number of Mann MPHs to Phoenix and trade one weapon and 100 rounds of ammo for sweat. I've got a ton of force nexus that I've mined but, sweating really sucks...no pun intended...oh what the hell...pun intended! I need the ME for my TP chip which I'm now hopelessly dependent on.

That's all folks! See ya around!

Hello EF!

Been a while since I posted last. Don't want to neglect things too much but, it is summer time and Mother Nature has finally smiled on the Buffalo area with a nice, warm, sunny summer. In short I'm spending too much time sitting outside drinking beer and don't have much left to write in my diary. Bad Wolf!

Let's start with PE stuff. Been hunting about the same as always. Nothing much to speak of loot wise...no globals or HoFs in a while now. Hmmmm , maybe I should join the Crimson Angels. Nahhh...I'll stick with The PACK. Enough daydreaming, back on topic. I did get a Bravo Type Plasma Annihilator from a friendly Atrax yesterday. It was only worth 7 ped but, still a nice item for a change. The good news is my skills appear to be flying atm. I seem to go up a rank in something 4 or 5 times each day now. I did experience one downer in the skill dept...I am no longer able to extract sweat from critters anymore. Now I gotta pay those #$%^& high prices! Today was an exceptional one as far as skills go however, today I unlocked RDA! That's right Dogg...I'm sniffing up your arse about now.

What's that? Oh...I'm sorry. You don't know what the hell I'm talking about. Allow me to explain. Dogg has been ahead of me in skills practically from day 1 (or day 2 actually since he started a day before me.) He hunts a lot more than I do. He's also un-encumbered with spouse and children so...he can pretty much do what he wants. Latley however, it appears that I may be catching up. He denies it of course but, he unlocked RDA a week or so ago. So...there ya go.

Anywho..on to rl. Grrrrrrrrrrr rl! Actually, real life has been treating ole Wolf pretty good these days. My wife got a job, my 16 year old daughter got a job and I just found out that it looks like this year will be my year to get a laptop for Xmas! Can't wait! Also, in 2 days, I'll have the house to myself for 5 days! Welcome to Wolf's World. All hunting, all the time! My wife and kids are going to the cottage for a week without me. OMFG! I just thought of something...I can hunt naked if I want to!!! Why would I want to...ehh... we'll see.

That's all for now EF. Last one in is a rotten snarg!!!
