I told my team this, and to my luck, Verac ity had brought a Restore with him, just to fight off the bitter cold. He gave it to me, and I drank the rest of it. My stats were now at full. Verc ity ran off, and Lion0f Judah appeared beside me. He escorted me to the bridge to the north. Unfortunately, I didn't have 70 hitpoints. The coldness had brought me down to about 540. So I had to eat two sharks. I went off the bridge and entered the Zamorak Fortress.
I already knew that you had to kill at least 40 minions to enter the boss room. I picked out my victim: a level 81 Bloodveld. I began to constantly miss, while it hit me again and again. Panicked, I asked my team why this was happening. The first assumption was that I didn't have an adequate Slayer level. But you unlock Bloodvelds at level 50, and I have 67 Slayer. So what was the problem? I never did find out. Lion0f Fudah came by and helped take out the Bloodveld. Personally, I think it was difficult to kill because it attacks with magical attacks, and I was wearing "highly conductive" armour. After making sure not to attack any more Bloodvelds, I began attacking Werewolves. They were much easier targets; I could easily kill them. At this moment, I realized I had forgotten to turn Lootshare on. I quickly turned it on.
Finally, after what seemed an eternity, I finally managed to reach a killcount of 40. I ran to the Boss Room with Star burrst, the last ones to arrive. As soon as we entered, the Zamorak boss appeared. Everyone else was praying against magic, so I followed suit. This was what we had been waiting for. This was my very first God Wars Dungeon Boss, so the level 675 intimidated me quite a bit. But with five of us attacking it, he quickly went down. I got the first drop: about 20k gp.
After a few more kills, I began to get the hang of things. On about the third or fourth kill, Lion0f Judah, our "Tanker", recieved the drop. A Zamorakian Spear, worth about 4m.

We were all quite excited. We would each get a split of the drop, and that worked out to about 700k.
We killed a few more, and the boss began dropping some decent items. He dropped two God Shards, which were both immediately split into coins. We each got about 30k from each one. I began getting quite a few of the coin drops. After about 15 kills, I had around 130k. I also recieved 15 Wines of Zamorak, and 3 Lantadyme Seeds. There was, of course, a lot of little drops, such as runes.
On the sixteenth battle, I was pretty sure on what to do. I turned on my Protect from Magic and began attacking the boss. But this time, instead of the boss attacking Lion0f Judah, he attacked me. He did his special attack, dealing around 400 points of damage. I wasn't quite sure what had happened. Then one of his mini-generals attacked me, hitting a 300. My life points were flashing, I began to click my sharks as fast as I could. Suddenly the screen froze, and I looked at my hitpoints. The heart was pumping madly; I had 2 hp. I knew then that I had died. All that work, all that effort... All for nothing. I would lose my coins, my Dragon Gauntlets...
I respawned in Varrock... with all my items. What on Gielinor had happened? I had 11 hp now, and the heart was still beating in a frenzy. How had I survived? Then I remembered. My Ring Of Life had saved me! I had completely forgotten about it. My team thought I had died, but when I told them that my Ring of Life had saved me, they began to laugh. I did too. I was still in disbelief. I thought I was a goner!
My team finished up their kill and teleported out. We all headed to Lion0f Judah's house to recieve our cut of the Zamorakian Spear. I got my share: 703k.
My first trip to the God Wars Dungeon was quite a success I guess. I came out with about 950k, and tons of fun.
I was still on Lunar Magics, and I was about to teleport to Lunar Isle when I forgot that I didn't have an Earth Staff. I had sold it!

I ran to the Grand Exhange and was about to buy an Earth Staff when I realized that I had a Mud Staff in the bank already. I took that and was about to teleport to Lunar Isle when a player asked me if I was on Lunar Magics. He wanted a teleport. I gladly accepted, and I took him to Lunar Isle with me.
I withdrew my pouches and law runes from the bank and began to Runecraft.
A little while later, me and ChaosZerk were deep in conversation about PKing. One thing led to another, and we ended up meeting each other at the Duel Arena. The first fight was pretty unfair: I was using Protect from Melee prayers, and was using the last of my Super Potions. I killed poor ChaosZerk in only a few seconds.
ChaosZerk didn't know that I had a Saradomin Godsword hidden up my sleeve, so when I brought it out to Special Attack him, his jaw must have dropped. "Is that... that's a..." He died. I laughed, and explained to him how I had gotten it.
We fought many times, and the result was almost always the same. I would continously hit 0s on his 45 Defence (I have 80 Attack), and he would constantly hit me 100s and 200s with his whip. Then he would bring out his dreaded Korasi and Special Attack me for 300+ hit points. I have no idea how he does it. He's either incredibly lucky, or he's doing something that I don't know about.
We continued to fight, and I won a few games, while he won the majority. I was about to enter another fight with him when Lion0f Judah PMed me. He wanted a Fletching assist. I assumed it was an effigy, so I switched worlds, and teleported to the Grand Exchange with my Ring of Wealth. I assisted him for 2k xp. Better than nothing, right? Don't get me wrong; I'm glad he called me for it.
After that was done, I teleported to Lunar Isle and began Runecrafting me again. I can't wait until the price for Astral Runes goes up! I have about 32k of them now!

While I was Runecrafting, a player by the name of Love Bird asked me what my Runecrafting level was. This is quite unusual. Most Runecrafters almost never speak. I told her 83 and asked her what her's was. Love Bird's was 85. We talked to each other when we met up at the altar. It was quite a nice change compared to the usual silence that greets me.
Well that's all that happened today. I think this is probably the longest entry I've ever had on this thread, and I hope it kept you entertained.
Well thanks for reading, and have a good night!

--April 31, 2011--
Today, I went to the God Wars Dungeon again with Lion0f Judah and his team. Again, we were quite lucky. We got another Zamorakian Spear! The setup process was much smoother this time. I knew exactly what to bring, and I wasn't scared in the slightest. After only a few kills, Lion0f Judah had to teleport out. He was our tanker, and after a few 400+ hits, he had run out of food.
Chaos Zerk then PMed me. We were wondering what to do, so I suggested the Duel Arena. We headed off, I with my Saradomin Godsword (Still borrowed from Prezleek), and my Abyssal Whip. I had decided to bring my whip along with me because that was the weapon that ChaosZerk kept owning me with (besides the dreaded Korasi). We went into a fight... And I completely destroyed him. I guess the whip was ChaosZerk's secret to success. Every battle we went in, I would whip his health down real low, then use a Saradomin Godsword Special Attack. I tell you, it was real nice finally owning the guy who beat you over and over again.
After a while, ChaosZerk decided to leave. I stayed, and started using my technique on some of the other duelers. There was one player, xrod, who battled me. He was level 111, 9 levels higher than me. It was a real close match. I died with his health a mere speck.
Soon after, Lion0f Judah was planning on going to the God Wars Dungeon again. His team was planning on going to the Bandos Boss this time. I gathered my gear (almost forgetting a hammer) and went to the Bandos Stronghold.
It took me quite a while to finally get 40 kills, but when I did, I ran to the Boss Room. As we were about to enter, a random player logged in beside us, entered the room and began fighting.
We were not on a Lootshare world because almost all Lootshare worlds were full at Bandos. Unfortunately, that meant that because I almost never dealt the most damage, I almost never got the drop. But the deal was that if anyone got anything good, they would have to split.

I was in the middle of the battle when everything stopped. I clicked a monkfish and nothing happened. I knew then that I had disconnected. This was pretty bad. I was at about half health, and I was really afraid of a lag death. I clicked the corner of the dungeon. Still nothing. I then clicked my emergency teleport. I waited a few moments, and then the dungeon sprang to life. I was only there for a second though; I was in Varrock within seconds.
I decided to go and finish off my Black Demon task that had left for so long. I gathered my items and was almost at them when ChaosZerk wanted to Duel me again. I wasn't really sure if I wanted to... But it felt nice owning him. I agreed to go. I teleported out and met him at the Duel Arena. I beat him several more times with my now newly befriended whip.
Then Lion0f Judah PMed me again. They were going to the Zamorak Boss. Ever since Lion0f Judah had persuaded me to go, I had been totally addicted to the God Wars Dungeon. I happily agreed to go. This time, ChaosZerk wanted to come along. I was a little skeptical: He only has 45 Defence. Even so, he came along. I finally got my 40 Kill Count and we entered the Zamorak Boss room. Just as I thought, ChaosZerk was getting hit pretty hard. At one point, I think he must have had around 10 hp left. Nevertheless, he survived. For some reason, as soon as the Zamorak Boss spawned, he would walk straight at me, and a few times, I had to tank out his hits.
Star burrst was there again, and he seemed to be getting a ton of the drops. Poor Lion0f Judah actually hadn't gotten a single drop! I also noticed that Lion0f Judah didn't seem to really like ChaosZerk... That made me a little sad .

Anyways, we continued to fight, and close to the 20ish kill, I was almost out of food. I had no anti-poisons left either. Then the Zamorak Boss spawned. He immediately went after me, and hit a 100. I ate a monkfish. Then his Generals began attacking me with their magic. I couldn't pray against both melee and magic, so I ate the rest of my food. That was when the boss hit me real hard; about a 200. Not only did this injure me, but I was poisoned. We fought the rest of the monsters, and finally killed them. But my health was flashing at 180, and I the poison would strike again soon. I quickly told my team that I had to go and teleported out.
As soon as I appeared in Varrock, the poison hit me. I was now flashing at 16hp, when all of a sudden I was teleported... Back to Varrock. My trusty Ring Of Life had "saved" me! I really didn't want to lose my borrowed Saradomin Godsword, so I ran to the bank and quickly deposited it, along with everything else. That's when I realized that my poison was gone! I stepped into an open clearing within the bank, and noticed Star burrst. He asked me if I had gotten anything good. Nope. I hadn't. Well he had gotten quite a few drops, so he was pretty happy.
As he ran off, a player named "Rayorth" stepped out. He said "Now you have" and gave me a free 100k. Wow. What a nice guy! He just gave me a free 100k just because I didn't get anything at the God Wars Dungeon. It just goes to show that there are still a lot of really nice people still in the community.
I was pretty much done combat for the day. I retired to Shilo Village for some Fishing. I got level 71!
Thanks for reading, and good night!

I didn't really get much of a chance to do much today. While I was on, I was Fishing at Shilo Village. To my extreme surprise, Zatknis Syka logged on. I thought he would have blocked me from his Private Chat! I messaged him with a "Yo, what's up?". I never got a response, and he logged off within twenty minutes. That's pretty much all that happened to be honest.
So I think I might talk about a friend I used to have years ago. His name was Seriousruss. He was the second "best friend" I ever had on Runescape. We had met a really long time ago in Port Phasmatys. I was smithing Cannonballs while he was smithing Gold Bars. He was going for 99 Smithing. We added each other, and we became great friends. We talked all the time, and I congratulated him when he got both 99 Mining and 99 Smithing. I loved logging on and chatting with him. We had this little competition going: We both wanted to get a high Runecrafting level. Each time the other person had more experience, we would try and one-up each other. It was great motivation.
In December 2010, he didn't log on during his usual playing time. Oh well, real life events happen. I waited a few days, and waited some more. One day I logged on and found his name had changed to "ef u sea cay". That didn't sound like him at all. I waited for days, months. I checked his last play time on his Adventure Log. His last activity was completing a quest on December 26, 2010.
He still has an Adventure Log, which means that he is still paying for a membership. Either he got hacked or he for some reason added me to his Ignore List. I really miss. I'm never going to delete his name from my Friend's List either. I hope that one day, he will log on. That would make me so happy...
Thanks for reading, good night!

--May 2, 2011--
Today I finally bucked up and started my Black Demon Slayer task. The cannons were very annoying. I would start attacking a demon, then halfway through the kill the cannon would randomly pick it up. Very frustrating. I picked up every pile of ashes and charms, and I eventually got level 52 Prayer! Right after I got that, I attacked a Black Demon and got 81 Attack! From that, I got 103 Combat! Then 68 Slayer!
After I had run out of Prayer Potions, I decided to try out PKing for the first time. I gathered up some gear, with my Abyssal Whip as my primary weapon. I ran around for a while, looking for a fight. Eventually a level 96 guy wanted a fight. We started fighting, and I began hitting constantly (I had downed a "Super Set". Then he pulled out a Gravite Longsword. I didn't think much of it... Until he hit a 300. I ate a rocktail, and he hit another 300. I lashed out with my whip, hitting a 180. The opponent began missing, and I began hitting inconsistently. I got hit another 300. I was beginning to hit the guy quite a bit, and he was running low on food. Then a pile of sharks appeared on the floor. And you know what this guy did? He ran over there and started picking them up! I ran after him, but some random level 98 guy attacked him before me. I had lost my opponent.
I watched the battle for a while, until my previous opponent teleported out. Then the level 98 guy asked me for a fight. Well why not? I accepted. He was using a Bandos Godsword. He began hitting quite a few 300's, while I was only hitting 100's. But my hits were often, while his were few and far between. I had brought a Dragon Dagger along for a Special Attack, so I brought that out. Stupid thing only hit once, and it was only a 100. The guy hit me another 300, then he announced "Out". I wasn't really sure what this meant, as it was my very first PvP battle. I assumed that it meant that he wanted out of the fight, so I ran off, saying "Ok". He followed me, yelling "Idiot".

Well I was a little confused. I thought I was being nice to this guy! I jumped out of the Wilderness and he followed. I asked him what "Out" meant. Apparently it meant that he was out of food. He asked me for a rematch. Well my hands were sweating pretty profusely from just that one battle, so I declined. My first Wilderness battle was pretty scary... Even though I was risking almost nothing.
I was still in the combat mood, so I decided to go and finish off that annoying Black Demon task once and for all. After running through the Taverly Dungeon for some time (I really need 70 Agility), I finally got to the Black Demons and realized I forgot my Slayer Gem. Well I sure as heck wasn't going all the way back, so I started fighting.
Over the span of about 54 kills, I got 3 Rune Medium Helms and 3 Rune Chainbodies... and 80 Constitution! Those drops were pretty weird though... Usually I get crap drops. I finished up the task and teleported to the Grand Exchange.
While I was there, I noticed a player talking about going for 99 Runecrafting. Well Runecrafting is my next planned 99, so I mosied (that's how you spell it?) on over. His name was TheAncientFX. We talked for a while, and I found out that he had 86 Runecrafting. Apparently he had made about 15m from 82-86. That was kind of odd, considering that I made about 8m from 82-83. Anyways, we wished each other the best of luck and went on our ways.
I teleported to Ardougne, boarded the ship to Brimhaven and took the wheelbarrow ride to Shilo Village. I ran to Duradel and got my next task. Surprisingly, it wasn't dragons like I was predicting. I got 125 Hellhounds. That's pretty good. Hellhounds drop a lot of Clue Scrolls, and I should be able to start training Strength on them. I didn;t really feel like doing that right that instant though...
I felt like Runecrafting. I teleported to my house and ran to Lokar Searunner, who took me to Lunar Isle.
