Hey all,

I've been writing a ffxi blog for a few weeks now, and I figured I'd make a post to try and stir up some readers. Here are some clips from some of the entries:

"{Hmm.} Over a million gil. {Thanks for the offer, but I'll have to pass.} I checked my gil, hoping it had multiplied over night. It hadn't. Looks like I would have to earn one the old fashioned way. Buy gil. Errr, I mean do the Wings of Fury BCNM and hope for a drop. I buy some lvl 20 gear and I'm off to sunny San 'doria (sorry if its wrong, but I hate that place)."

"The moral of the story is never let a bard - no screw that. The moral of the story is I fucking hate goblins."

"As luck would have it, the poison wore off at 3 hp. Relieved, I rested to get my health back so I could continue fighting. As soon as my ass touched ground, a Goblin Fisher killed the crap outta me. (Hate... Goblins... so much...)"

Its not a fancy blog about important end-game stuff. Its a blog about a sub-par player and his times failing at virtual life. Give it a read, lemme know what you think.

---edit--- Forgot to put up link. http://littletaruthatcouldnt.ff11blog.com/

Thanks,
Pasquale

New update - 8/3/06

Hey all, new update to my blog. Today's entry is entitled 'The Dream Team.' Heres a little preview:

-------------------------
I /sea all the people who had replied only to find out they were all lvl 20-35, and thus totally useless. I sent them /tells anyways, just in case they had a higher job, but my response was always the same:

Player1: lol no
Player2: Um, have you been to Qufim? That shit is hard.
player3: No, but I'm pretty good. I can probably tank a lvl 75 NM w/o dying. (He was level 20.)
--------------------------

Check it out. Thanks.

Very nice blog, enjoyed reading it.
If you're looking for some suggestions, add some pics. They really spice things up and bring more of a lively look.

thanks for reading!

Thanks for the suggestion. I was thinking that too. It looks too 'wordy.' Starting with my update monday, ill use pics.
 
I've been trying to update on monday and thursday mornings, but today's entry is going to be late because of my boss being a jerk and acctually making me do stuff while I'm at work. Pfft, whats that about?

Anyways, check back around 4pm (central) and hopefully it will be up. I'll post back on this thread with a preview like I usually do when its ready.

Thanks for reading, and the in-game /tells. You guys are awesome.

Today's post is finally up. Holla back at Mea. Here's a preview:

----------------------

As if waiting for his cue, I immediatly got hit from something that looked like it had escaped from the set of Beetlejuice. We kill it relatively easy, and allowed ourselves to get filled with foolish pride.

----------------------

I know I said I was going to start adding screenshots, but I forgot to take any. Next update will be on Thursday. See you then, and thanks for reading!

Yesterday's entry is up now, despite the fact that now is today, and very much not yestederday. Here's a preview of today's entry, "/tell /trouble"

------------------
Player2: Wut's that?
Pasquale: What's what?
Player2: lol {full attack!} Wuts that?
Pasquale: Oh. I need help with killing Titan.
Player2: Titan? is that an NM?
Pasquale: Are you serious? Titan is an avatar... for SMN...
Player2: Oh lol.
::pause::
Player2: Wait... wut?
Pasquale: Summoner. You can summon Titan. I need help to go fight him.
Player2: You can be TITAN?!

Enjoy. Comments? {yes, please}

Today's update is up now. You can read 'Pa-owned' here. Here's a preview:

------------------
Pasquale uses Astral Flow.
Carbuncle starts casting Searing Light.
Galgalim eats Carbuncle.

Well, not literaly 'eats,' but there was much death, of the instant variety.
------------------

Thanks for reading and leaving comments.
And thanks for the in-game /tells, those are the best thing ever^^

Today's update is a review of Dirge of Cerberus. You can read 'I totally Dirged while playing this game.' here. Here's a preview:

--------------

If I were asked to describe this game, I would say it was as if Resident Evil and Devil May Cry got together and had a baby, and that baby had autism.

--------------

Thanks for reading/commenting. Monday's entry will be back to FFXI. Unless I see Snakes on a Plane this weekend, which is most likely gonna happen.

Sorry today's is a little late, work is kinda rough and I'm still so very hung over.

Anyways, today's entry "I uh...yeah." Can be found here. Here's a preview:

------------------
Pasquale: Um. Hey.
blm/pld: Yo.
Pasquale: Sooo... blm/pld huh?
blm/pld: Yeah.
Pasquale: How's that workin' out for ya?
blm/pld: It's awesome, I'm pretty sure I get a fuck-ton of extra def.

'I'm pretty sure I get a fuck-ton of extra def.' A single tear dropped down my cheek.
------------------

Thanks for reading!

Today's is a little late, and not FFXI related, but its almost all pictures, so you should go read it anyways. "The following is a paid advertisement for Michael Bay." can be found here. Here's a preview, but like I said, its almost all pics, so I can't really say much.

------------------

So one day, Optimus Prime was driving around, minding his own business...

Thanks for reading!

Hey all,

Todays's entry is finally up. You can read "Kentucky Fried Chocobo. Not my joke, but meh." here. As always, here's a preview:

--------------------
I'm sure you've all seen a wide assortment of names, including hilarious ones like EasyLady or CoqUranus, and more serious ones like SilentThunder or TalonStrike. I went with ShadowWing, a name that sounds cool now, but I'm sure after saying it six or seven more times, I'll think it's lame.
--------------------

Thanks for reading!
