"Far more sophisticated than a mere alley brawler, who does nothing more than punch people in the face, the Wall Street Brawler has perfected the art of Money Melee: He mesmerizes his opponents by waving massive fistfuls of cash before them. THEN he punches them in the face."
haw! excellent.

we need to get a bunch of our 'market theme' characters together at Wents for a family snapshot.


Missed my monday money dump- was out of town celebrating 11 years of wedded bliss. Will make up for lost time TONIGHT!

Why would you stay married to someone who wants you to skip marketeering in favor of some kind of social event?

... Well, congrads anyway. :P

true story!

channel surfing last night after the show the wife happened across the South Park episode about that one big fantasy MMO, which led to the following scene:


Cartman: (long stream of gamer gibberish)

wife, suspiciously: Do you know what that means?

me: Uh............yes?

wife: *throws pillow*

I cheated, I married someone who understands the gamer gibberish. Used to have an LJ icon of someone with 4-digit health numbers captioned "LF39M Hogger".

The nerf to Hogger was so uncalled for. 40 man level 2 gnome raids on Hogger were the best!

And no... I don't own a shirt that says "LF39MC PST" on the back... honest.

Drawing up on my first clean billion ever. I've been doing 100-300 million a week crafting and I'm sitting at about 800 million right now. Hopefully I'll be able to donate my first billion sometime next week, assuming none of the stuff I'm crafting tanks in price (which has happened dishearteningly often.)

What is the total amount of inf which remains to be burned to get to #1?

A rough idea would be nice so we can gauge the pace at which we're catching up to the top spot.

Wow. We're moving fast.

EDIT: Those were last night's numbers. Now we're #19 and have burnt almost 49 billion.
I thought my stuff would move faster--it's obvious I haven't marketeered in a while. I have another billion to burn tonight, though.


There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.

I've got my billion sitting around waiting to be burnt, but I haven't been able to catch somebody who can invite me online and free.

Fixed that.

Ladies and gentlemen, a play in three parts.

That is art. I bid......... 300m prestige for the fire!

.......300m burnt tonight. 102m prestige, and #18 on the list.

Took care of the pvp sg badge. Not sure what the Fusion Generator does exactly. This is just a heads up for our base builder in case it was wanted/needed.

Been forgetting to contribute to the SG after joining in the first few days. Went ahead and burned 600M or 700M earlier today. Once I get a little more casually purpled on my stalker, I'm going to try to earn enough to burn another 2B on the SG.

Just to reiterate what's mentioned in that thread, I've noticed that the inf monitor is not always accurate. The number on your ID card or on the market interface is.

Yeah, I saw. That's one strange bug.

I dropped another billion into the fire....we're up to 18. Looking ahead the slow going is gonna be coming up shortly...

hoping to have another billion for the fire on Monday, depending on how ravenous the weekend appetites are.

I foresee a slowdown in my incinerating due to a suddenly rediscovered affection for my fire/axe tank, who is a lot of fun now and kitted out with a pathetic array of long outleveled generics and a handful of set IOs seemingly drawn from a hat at random.

I kind of want to join the 88s, at first I thought when I hit four billion I'll join and burn two and now I am thinking with i19 and the new lv 50 content that maybe I should have closer to six billion before I start burning excess.

I applaud those that have stepped up and kept the inf cauldron a flame. as I am too timid at this point.

It's been nice actually paying attention to how much inf I make again.

I'm keeping a few billion on hand for markteering and kitting out lowbies, but whatever I make above that gets gleemailed to the 88'ers.

I'm around 10b burned so far, with no end in sight. =D
