*Speaks in A Doctor Who John Simm voice* They call me The Master.

I just leveled up.

Thank you so much for the kind donation, FK! I bought the trap and it's so lovely. Thank you so much!

In other news, I went to the Calm Clearing, but... still haven't gotten my Cyclops yet.

One of the things I hate about events? Nothing but event tournies. . . Wolf, Dot, NaH, Ithi, I'm up for tournies this week. . . not really doing anything except farming gold (A catacombs tournie would be great!). If y'all are up for one, let me know.

I'm only up for catacombs tourneys until I get that trap, after that I'll take any location I can travel to just about...

As for timing... weekends and thursday late mornings/after 3 are best

Concerning Tournies, I'm generally online from 3PM - 3AM Pacific time. So if there are any Tournaments during that time in which you guys can participate, I'll most likely be up for it.

Now that I'm a Master, it says I can visit the Town of Digby. Where is that? Is the Lab in the Town of Digby, because as far as I can see, that's the only new place I can go.

I saw some new traps for sale when I went to the Lab. Most of them seemed to have roughly the same stats, and I was wondering which one would be best to buy next, if any. They were the first traps I've seen (besides the birthday bases) that were not Physical traps. I think they were Shadow traps or something.

Where is that? Is the Lab in the Town of Digby, because as far as I can see, that's the only new place I can go.

Almost, they are both located in the Burroughs region... Chances are you need a map first...

You need the Key to the Town of Digby to drop from a Dwarf Mouse in the Lab apparently.

More info on maps here:

This lists all the maps in the game and how to get them... (It should jump right to the Digby one)

I recently just found out Dents are for the time being giftable, so I sent you my extra Ithy, since you don't seem to have one already It's just a collectible, I don't think you can use it for anything... unfortunately.

Is there anything needed or helpful in catching the Dinosuit Mouse? Like, do I have to use Nanny Charms? Party Charms? A certain base?

Digs and wolf, I'm in the Catacombs right now too. I'm farming gold until I can build the Heat Bath. Unless something else is added to the Birthday event, I'm not leaving until I've farmed 1.2 mil. So I'd totally be up for tournies here. The times I'm available are pretty random since I have classes throughout the day. Usually, I check in at least once or twice during class depending on the class though. Tuesday and Wednesday evenings aren't good for me and weekends usually aren't either. I'm on Alaska time, by the way.

NOOOOO...my dream was crushed, I was so hoping for SBM on my monger this time but no, I just have to get an Oasis Bead..., Oh well, back to FW and starting from the beginning

I guess I'm just not that lucky, soon I'll get monstrobot, btw, FK, did you really grind FW for 2 SBM or did you buy one off the market, if you did, where did you farm the gold, 9 mil is a lot My question is open to all who have the SMB, not just FK I already have 1 SBM so yeah

I just have to get an Oasis Bead

Consider yourself lucky that you got a loot drop at all . The OWN is a pretty awesome hydro trap, and it's one that you don't have yet. . . so overall I wouldn't complain .

I understand your disappointment though. . . I too am hoping and waiting for another SBM (but I too am waiting for the Sphynx Crystal )

wilth, she got hers as loot drops. When we were hunting for the SBM, it was running over 11 mill on the marketplace. I'm the one with lousy luck in the warpath. I'm on run #18 and I've had 2 loot drops the entire time. I've gotten an Oasis bead and one SBM. With the warpath, you have to have an abundance of patience.

I moved to the Garden overnight to try catching my Summer Mage and the first thing I saw when I logged in was that I caught him! So I am now in the Tower (for the first time) following the detailed instructions of FK in hopes of finishing a successful run before Wed (when there is supposed to be something "special" connected to the Birthday Celebration).

Do I need to use Ancient to get Scrap Metal in the Catacombs?

No, definitely not. BUT, your attraction rate of the Scavenger and Terror Knight will be much higher if you do use Ancient cheese because not as many mice are attracted to it. So you'll likely get your scrap metal faster using Ancient.

Thank you so much for the kind donation, FK! I bought the trap and it's so lovely. Thank you so much!

You're welcome

In other news, I went to the Calm Clearing, but... still haven't gotten my Cyclops yet.

Yeah, unfortunately he's rare and when you do attract him he's kind of hard, so the only thing you can do is be patient.

Now that I'm a Master...

Congrats on Master!! And I noticed you found the Town of Digby. If I remember correctly, there's a mouse there that will unlock another new location for you.

I saw some new traps for sale when I went to the Lab. ... I think they were Shadow traps or something.

Yep, and you will need one of those Shadow Traps really soon. (I recommend the Sinister Portal.)

btw, FK, did you really grind FW for 2 SBM or did you buy one off the market

Um, neither? The game was kind to me for a change, I got one on my first run through and the second on my third run through. I've had 2 more drop since then that I've sent to friends so they could build their Monstrobots as well. I think DiGs and I figured out that the average drop rate for trap parts (not including the first run) was about 20%-25%.

So I am now in the Tower (for the first time) following the detailed instructions of FK in hopes of finishing a successful run before Wed

You're doing really well so far!! (I've been spying on your progress.)

Meanwhile I'm in a Warpath tourny and can't seem to catch a mouse all of a sudden. I'm just about to wrap up Wave 3 and move onto Wave 4. Crossing my fingers for a trap piece to drop.

SADFACE I heard the statistics that the percentage of getting the SBM after first run is around...8%
for those who might want a FW guide, i found https://docs.google.com/document/d/14lT ... skggE/edit
a really well written guide although I don't agree with some of it, but it's decent and stuff
OH well FW again:)

I ran out of RB, but I had over 200 pieces of Gouda. . . so I figured that it was time to head back to the warpath. Currently in wave one, sitting on a streak of 6. I'll use a commander's charm if I get a streak of 7.

My general rule of thumb is to only use a commander's charm if it will clear out more than 20 mice.

I had a fairly successful first run in the Tower. I got a Mystic King and a Chess Master (no torn page drop, though). I moved to the Crystal Library and started the first "Catalog" Library Task. This looks like it may become my favorite aspect of the game so far. I like having specific quests.
