@ Simbaha1: Thanks!
@ Our Soul: Yep I've been busy... Both in real-life and in-game. You should get membership again, all the new updates are totally worth it! Thanks for the comment old friend :)

Hi!

I haven't played much Runescape these past few days, aside from AFKing Divination and completing my daily challenges. Instead, I've picked up an old hobby of mine. Drawing!

A couple days ago, I decided I was going to draw the Taj Mahal. My specialty is drawing buildings, so I figured that an easily recognizable landmark would be a great subject.

The detail was ornate and meticulous. I literally had to resharpen my pencil every fifteen minutes or so just to get at the small little etchings. It was an incredibly long and tedious process, but it was definitely worth it. I'm really happy with how the final drawing turned out! I took a photo of it here:

My next drawing is going to be of a Japanese Temple! While I work on these drawings, I train Divination, and today I achieved level 81 Divination! And just the other day, I achieved level 98 Hunter, purely from challenges! I think it's safe to say that I will attain 99 Hunter before 99 Divination :P

Thanks for reading!

Good night! :)

@ Selling94: Just like Our Soul said, the " -period-" is to be replaced with "."

Ahh, finally the weekend.

My girlfriend had been sick with strep throat for the past two weeks, but now that she's better, I can finally see her again! So for the past couple days I've been hanging out with her a lot.

On Runescape, I've been making sure to complete each Super September Challenge, and each daily challenge. The Duel Arena challenge was by far my favourite. I love duelling people, and it was great to see some action in the arena once again! I duelled quite a few people in there, including some friends of mine, like Turtle Drink and Calcrulz.

But for the most part, I've been sticking with slowly chipping away at Divination XP while I continue on my drawing project. The Japanese Temple I've started drawing is much, much more detailed than the Taj Mahal, so it's going to take long time. I think it will be worth it in the end though!

Anyways, it's about midnight now, and I've got to get some sleep! Thanks for reading, and good night :)

You won't believe it.

On September 22, 2013, something incredible happened to Grimwold2. It's better than getting a Divine Sigil at the Corporeal Beast. Better than looting Third-Age Druidic from a clue scroll. Even better than being invited to join the Player Moderator team.

I found a pair of Ragefire Boots.

That's right. A pair of Ragefire Boots. It actually happened. To those of you who don't know the story behind this, I have been trying to get boots from Glacors for probably close to a year. I trained Magic solely at Glacors from level 89-99. I killed thousands of Glacors and nearly made three Armadyl Staves without receiving a single boot drop.

But on September 22, I found a pair of Ragefire Boots after a record-setting 2787 kill dry-streak.

It was the first kill of my trip, too. I hadn't been to Glacors for a while, but I was getting kind of bored with Divination, so I had decided to try and extend my drystreak even further. The very first Glacor I killed dropped what I immediately assumed to be Black Boots. But on closer inspection, I saw that they were, indeed, Ragefire Boots. I actually laughed in real life.

Man, I had tried to get Glacor boots for so long... A ridiculously long time. Kind of weird to think that I actually got boots. I killed one more Glacor for good measure and left the icy cavern. I'm sure I'll return some day; after all, I don't think I will ever beat that stupid 2787 dry streak.

So here's the deal: If I keep my Divination challenge incomplete, I will receive a Hunter challenge every day. With the bonus XP provided by Super September, I should be able to hit 99 Hunter on the last day of September, provided everything goes according to plan. So, for the next few days, I'll be avoiding Divination!

So, I headed to Barrows.

Jagex recently added Triskelion Key Fragments to the drop table at Barrows, so that was a pretty nice incentive to and loot the Barrows.

My first trip rewarded me with Verac's flail, and the run after that rewarded me with Guthan's Helm! I guess the long break from bossing / PvM made my luck better!

I did a few more runs before logging off for the night; my girlfriend is coming over, and we'll be playing Grand Theft Auto and Mario Kart :D

Thanks for reading!

Good night! :)
