Just watched the GMs’ livechat online. It’s too bad that they didn’t really spill anything on the game (except for old news, like the charity event and the burry balls quest), but at least we got to know more about GMs Abby, Bacon, and Neverender.^_^ They looked like pretty cool people. One guy on the chatroom kinda freaked me though. He sounds like a borderline stalker.x_x Freaky.

I haven’t been playing HKO the past few days, because I’ve been busy with NaNoWriMo (or it has been busy with me x_x). I went online yesterday though, just to check up on the guild event and to help out my guildmates. It’s only a few days until the end of HKO, after all.:( I’m almost done with all the quests. The only one that’s left is the burry ball quest, and I don’t know if I’m still going to do it, since I’m not sure if I still have the time or the patience to continue looking for these dratted rare drops.x_x At least I’m done getting the two keys and the pass for the events! Anyway, I’d like to give a big shout out to Nakio, Juicy, and Danny, who’ve helped me out last week.^_^ Nakio gave me a roarer top, Juicy that little handheld rose, and Danny for clearing out the hedgehogs as I whacked Speedy.:P Here are some screenies of my HKO adventures! Dear Daniel gives me a quest to tell Hello Kitty something. Waitaminute! How come the quest says Mimmy?o_O I think Daniel mistook one twin for the other! Good thing Mimmy’s nice about it.:P After Nakio gave me the shirt and I bought the Florapolis wand from, er, Florapolis, guess where I went to first: Muhahahaha! Take that, Eagor! Revenge is sweet.XD Me going through my favorite creatures in the game: the little balloon rats!^_^ Me with the rose Juicy gave. Thanks Juicy!^_^ Lookie my inventory, I have the collars of Keroleen’s pets! I still have no idea why she’d keep violent pets though.x_x

There was a new event launched today in HKO called "Monster Rancher." Apparently, Keroleen lost her pets (I can’t really remember the story) and your task is to defeat them to get their collars (oh yeah, I definitely can’t remember how it went x_x). On the event blog, it said that you shouldn’t even attempt to try the quest without being at least Level 15. I was happy, thinking that I could do it since I was Level 18 (hah! Three notches above the minimum!) so I went to go and whack one of the creatures. When I was lining up for a shot at Egor, I noticed something that made me o_O: It’s not that hard to spot me. I’m the one with the completely different clothes.x_x So I was thinking if I should get out of the line, since all of them were obviously better prepared than I am, when suddenly it was my turn. I waited for Egor to regenerate, all the while thinking, "Please be stunned with only a few whacks!" Well, it worked. Except that I was the one who ended up stunned. KO’d, in fact.x_x One of my guildmates reckons that it’s not my level that’s the problem, but my clothes, and she advised that I buy better threads, so I went off to the London shops to get new clothes, when I realized that the clothes were for levels 15, 18, and 20. I was at the tail end of Level 18, so I decided to wait until I reach Level 20 before I buy new clothes, that way I wouldn’t need to spend twice (and yes, I’m broke :P). Now I’m doing major grinding to reach Level 20 before the event ends. I’m now 3/4 done with Level 19, so it’s only a few more!^_^ Oh, some random screenies for you: Me staring at Badtz (Sorry, Hello Kitty :P) Heh, one of the GMs looking for a croissant. Found that so funny.

Tidesong mentioned NaNowRiMo about a month ago, and then Zakura brought it up again in her blog. I’m thinking whether or not I’d join it, because it’s going to start in a few days’ time and I still don’t have a concept in my head on what to write, so I don’t know if I should participate in it. Anyway, for those who don’t know NaNowRiMo is a bit of a celebration of November, which is Novels month. What better way to celebrate the day than to write your very own novel?:P The goal is to write a 175-page (or 50,000-word) novel by midnight of November 30. Yes, it’s scary. Yes, it’s intimidating. But it potentially sounds like great fun!^_^ The cool thing with NaNowRiMo is that it’s fine if you stank in writing it, because it’s really just a creative exercise, when you get down to it. I really want to contribute, but the latest fiction stuff I did are the ones in the Lites section, and those are purely one-shots.x_x Anyway, I have a few days to think about it, so wish me luck!

Looks like I spoke too soon.x_x I think I said a couple of entries ago that I don’t think I’ll ever get stuck somewhere. Looks like I’m wrong.x_x Do you see the problem? If you don’t, that’s the problem.x_x I suddenly evaporated. Like, pffft. Good thing GM-Mickey’s active in our guild forum, or I wouldn’t have known how to get myself visible again. That’s one of the times I didn’t mind getting beaten up by the boars.x_x The second bug I encountered is one that annoys me to no end. I was going to get Sakura’s key under the tree, so I clicked on the bubbles. Bubbles disappearing after clicking? Check. Crystals removed from my inventory? Check. Key in my inventory? Er, no.x_x Argh. The bad thing is, I don’t know where else to get the crystals, so I’m dead. I have no idea where to get the tears to make ‘em.:( Noticed also something: I think the Tool NPC in Florapolis is the hottest out of ‘em all. He seems to always be surrounded by people every time I check.x_x

Oh noez! Looks like the spell that befell the Sanrio characters also affected the players! There’ve been bodies lying around in Sanrio land, and I have no idea what happened to them: Lookie white text. As I left them, they were talking about giving the poor girl a funeral.x_x Guess the boars really are deadly, after all. Can anyone solve the case? *Cue in CSI theme* (Speaking of CSI, cried my eyes out on the season premiere.x_x) Speaking of strange, I saw a guy who had no pants at all O_O OMG *covers eyes* Good thing his wand had a strategic position.x_x

I withdraw my complaint about the crazy pink crab, because the creatures of Florapolis are way tougher than them. In fact, Sanrio Harbor’s animals are downright fluffy and friendly compared to these guys, who attack you by the swarm.x_x After my experience with the boxpigs, I breathed a sigh of relief when I entered the next scene and found spiders. Spiders are not as bad as boars right? After all, they just make webs and walk funny and… Ouch! Who would’ve thunk that spiders are stronger and tougher than the boars?x_x I tucked myself into a little nook to rest… And then those little spiders found me and proceeded to sting the life out of me.x_x It’s a good thing though, because when I got teleported, I saw my guildmates Feather, Remedy, and Rainy G! Hurray! (Oh, and GM-Wayne with the pink dinosaur too, but he wasn’t talking to any of us :P). Wheee! Badtz joins our parteh! Oh, and on non-HKO related news, I adopted a new pet (by Megarose)! Meet Uncle Badtzmore, long-lost uncle of Badtz-Maru who’s filthy rich, loves tapdancing and who is so cool, he’s blue. And yep, he’s from Antarctica, not Hawaii. (Maybe I should ask him about the mystery of Tsunko.)

My question is, is it possible for a player to get into many different guilds? Before I got recruited to "HKO Founders", I was thinking of joining "Misfits", because I saw on the forums that they’re going to have Badtz as a mascot too.^_^ (Wheee! XO’s popular! Hurray!) Also, I want to check out Sailor Scouts because I’ve heard a lot of good stuff about them from my blogging friends (cough @ ripplecloud and noliai). Anyway, if someone could answer my question, that would be great.^_^ Also, how do I change my settings in the game so that everything I say won’t appear as a huge speech bubble floating above my head?o_O And how come people have a load of different colored-fonts in the chat box? Hahaha! A few days in, and I’m still confused! Anyway, here are some Florapolis screenies! iheartbadtz as the pork spy. I felt like a secret agent crouched behind the ivory wood while the piggies were roaming around. Man, these pigs! I really thought they were adorable, especially when I saw GM Abby’s Order of the BoxPig even before I played HKO, and I was looking forward to poking them. Who knew that such cute creatures could be such savages? I had around five of them running after me at one point. Scary.x_x See how scary they are? Lookie how it peeks before it attacks? I saw Pink No Corisu too! She has a different name in the game though, which confused me a bit.x_x Anyway, had a chat with her. Okay, maybe I didn’t. Maybe I was too busy running away from the boxpigs to pay attention to who I would meet.x_x Hurmph. So there.x_x I saw Latte of Tenorikuma too! I was so surprised that he was so tiny, I almost missed him! Wish he brought the spoon too though, that would’ve been cute. My only complaint about the game so far is that healing takes way too long.x_x It’s kinda annoying to wait for some time before you’re ready to whack some pigs again, or other furry creatures there. I haven’t been stuck yet, so I don’t have any problems with that.
So I was walking around in Florapolis, and then I suddenly got an invite from Kim. I accepted the invite, and before you could say "XO!" I was part of a guild! Lookie at the icon: it’s Badtz! woohoo! I like my new guild already!

Typing this real quick, since I’m gonna leave for class in a few (HKO’s gonna be ruining my life in the next month, I can feel it hahahaha!) In case you’re wondering, I’m using someone else’s PC to check it out (I couldn’t wait until mine got fixed) Just wanted to show some screenies of the first few seconds I was in HKO: Me and my Badtzy! Wheee! I squeed when I saw first saw him.^_^ wanted to hug him, but all I could do was sit beside him.x_x Oh well, at least I still saw my fave character.^_^ Keroppi! I bet Kyorosuke isn’t happy Keroppi’s getting center stage and not him. Another one of my fave characters, Pochacco.^_^ Cinnamoroll! I forgot to get a screenie of Mimmy.x_x Oops. I hope she doesn’t feel too bad when she sees it after she wakes up from the spell. Been looking for the people I know here in the blog, but I haven’t seen any of ‘em yet.x_x Anyway, I’m still stuck at the crab quest. The little buggers keep killing me.x_x
