me (cutality) and my co-adventurer (bunnypox) have applied for guildship... just so you know who we are.

It breaks down into six beers, Mordant, at least as far as I know. And then you drink them, I guess.

( Incidentally, if you're Mordant The Obnoxious, I'd consider drastically increasing my prices in the Flea Market, were I you... )

I was selling everything really expensive before and nobody bought it! I wasted about 400 meat this weekend just gone because all my stuff just came back unsold. I'm finding my range.

How much karma does one need before one can withdraw cash from the big deposit box?

I'm trying to make a Meat Golem, and misused Magicalness-in-a-Can what I got with my last 300 meat....
 
 
Alex's Grandma
19:43 / 25.01.05
Yeah, I think I've gone a bit far as well. 8500 for a frilly dress was apparently more than the market could bear.

All 'lithers are welcome. Apply in the usual way, and don't forget to send me a message as well, so I know who you are.

How much karma does one need before one can withdraw cash from the big deposit box?

You can't. Karma is for items only. The cashbox is for three reasons:

Firstly, and - for us - pointlessly, it's used to fund clan warfare.
Secondly, it funds the meat tree. As I understand it, every clan member receives 5% of the total clan cashbox (to a max of 500) in free meat each new day.
Finally, it is used to purchase stat upgrades for clan members. This I will do everyso often, but only if I have enough personal meat to afterwards restore the cashbox to a capacity large enough to ensure the meat tree works for everyone. Note that these free boosts will come out of my own pocket, so they won't be regular, or too frequent (especially as the clan grows in size, since the meat cost is multiplied by the total clan members).

Whilst you can't take from the cashbox, you can donate to it if you wish, but, to be honest, you're probably better off using your available meat for other purposes, at least in the early days before you get your first million or so.

Wow, my 9-year-old brother plays on Neopets.

That's the age when it starts, Tom. Stage an intervention now before it's too late! Your brother's immortal soul depends on it!

Just letting you know, Tez, I applied for clan membership. For simplicity's sake, I'm Snowtiger there, too.

thank you, Tez

anyone need an AssHat, which gives stench resistance?

This is in many ways a demented thing to ask, and I'm not in a position to say anything anyway, but could everyone possibly pick, y'know a 'title' ? Just so the membership list looks, y'know, really cool...

Sekhmet you have a lot to answer for- i joined yesterday and I'm now a level 3 Puffin intimidator called Copeys_brick - I'm suffering severe Goofball withdrawal, have a mild hangover- and meat stocks are low.

Where is the Barbelith Clan? is there one? how do I make more meat? can i get more adventures a day (must feed the addiction!) Whats the best way to build up Muscle?

Help me before I re-enter the casino and blow all my remaining meat...
 
 
Alex's Grandma

Ok, being pathetically addicted to this game myself I shouldn't really be assisting anyone else's descent into misery, I know, but here goes;

The best way, as far as I know, of building up meat stocks is to sell stuff in the flea market. Check out the prices, undercut them slightly, and take it from there.

Food is good for extra adventures, especially if it's cooked. As is alcohol, but you pay the price later.

You build up muscle by fighting basically, or by taking drinking and taking drugs.

The Barbelith clan, The Fabulous Land Of Self-Awaria, is accessible, I think, from the clan area, just click on the symbol and type in the name.

Good luck !

I've been adventuring in the Degrassi Knoll for about a million years now and I've assembled all the parts (I think) I need for the car except for the rims. If I just keep going will I find them, or do I have to make them from something?

I had the same problem. Sweet Rims are the only car componant not obtainable at the Knoll. You need to trade for these with the Hermit.

Aaahhh. Thanks for that, and for welcoming me into the clan.

I've been drinking all my alcohol at the end of every game. That way, when you start the next day you have all the extra adventures but none of the drunky headfuck.

Should our titles be thematic somehow?

Arctic animal theme?


I just pulled my first salary, and boy is it nice.

Now I have a Meat Golem hanging out in my camp.

I'm a man about town, I am. ROCK!

I heart Tezcat for being such a generous sort, and setting up the nifty clan-ness.

Sekhmet you have a lot to answer for...

Ah, victimhood. Last resort of the addict.

Onward! A goofball-snarfing penurious adventurer is you!

Tezcatlipoca: I've applied to join the clan.
I'm finding it difficult to make the jump from level 4 to level 5. If I try and adventure in any of the new areas I just get my arse handed to me.

A clan membership applicant is me!

How can I get my lousy mosquito to fight better?

Your mosquito will grow faster the more you fight. Alternatively, you can go to the plains and let your familiar fight in the arena. If it wins, it will gain experience.

I think only the Clan founder can do that.

I'm just starting up, and funny enough, I've been playing this as much as Resident Evil 4 lately. Shows you what games are...

Hey Tez, you'll be seeing an invite from netbanshee in a moment.

This game is so crack.

Can I get a bed or something to rest on at my camp so I can recover more HP per rest?

And how can I get a mosquito? I am very envious.
 
 
Mazarine
07:01 / 27.01.05
I have also applied to be in the clan. I will fetch tribute if necessary. I too wish to thank Tez for starting the clan, and Sekhmet for introducing me to the damn game in the first place. I'm having such a lovely time!
 
 
LykeX
07:46 / 27.01.05
Jake, buy a terrarium and set it up at your campsite.
Get a mosquito larva.
Put it in the terrarium to make it hatch.
Tadaa, you have a mosquito.

Not quite sure where you find the mosquito larva, though.
 
 
LykeX
07:59 / 27.01.05
Btw, I am totally hooked on cooking and cocktailing. So many possibilities!
 
 
Axolotl
08:52 / 27.01.05
Does anyone know what you have to trade with the hermit to get the sweet rims? And has anyone any ideas how to get an empty meat tank beyond just adventuring in DeGrassi hill?
 
 
Alex's Grandma
11:22 / 27.01.05
You go to the market, buy chewing gum on a string, go to the sewer next door and sooner or later ( it might take a few attempts, ) you'll get something worthless. Take that to the hermit and Bob's your uncle.
 
 
Axolotl
11:44 / 27.01.05
Cheers. I'll try it once I've got more adventures. This game is so addictive, I burn through the forty or so daily adventures and then get irritated because I can't play anymore. It's probably for the best otherwise I'd never get anything else done.

Jack, I found my mosquito larva in the Spooky Forest - it took some time though.

I just killed the Boss Bat. FEAR ME!

jakegnosis: I've put bar skin and wooden stakes in our clan stash.

Take those out and combine them.

You get a much better result by combining a bowl of cottage cheese with anticheese, which has made me quite the happy non-camper.....

I'd really like some herbs if anyone has them.
 
 
LykeX
15:37 / 27.01.05
There's herbs in our stash. Or if you need more, go to the mall where you can get herbs for 10 meat.
 
 
LykeX
16:02 / 27.01.05
So, once you've got the ingredients for a car, how do you put them together?
