Glad to hear that you're doing well, wil!
I did pretty decently overnight with my warriors. Got them down to 21 of them. Currently have a streak of four, here's hoping I can get two more, so that I can use a commander's charm.
Currently at 21-0-33-39-8
I also came up with a new plan to make a little bit extra gold - selling charms on the marketplace. This is something that I've been doing for Stale SB+ (via Super Wrotten Charms) for sometime now, but I've found that if you craft 10 Empowered anchor charms, you can sell them for 50K without much difficulty. If you have a TON of scrap metal lying around (I had over 300 pieces) then you only need to buy the orbs (ten of them will set you back about 25K - 30K) and the charmbit (which is another 10K). So you make about 10K profit per batch. Just thought I'd share that with you guys. It's not going to make anybody filthy rich, but it's nice to have a little "spending cash" so to speak .
EDIT: Crackers! I got my streak of six, I armed my commander's charm, but did I catch the one that decided to walk by my trap? No

Well, I have ventured into the Jungle of Dread. Using Tribal base and Soul catcher. On this, I am totally following the wordpress guide.
I caught 3 Stonework Warrior Mice; so far no luck with the Fetid Swamp Mice with only 2 pieces of cheese left. So far this place is aptly named.
Love God, love people
Silver Crowns I'm aiming for:
-Sock Puppet Ghost (need 5 more)
-Cavalier (need 26 more)
-Cowbell (16 more)
-Drummer (14 more)
-Fiddler (24 more)
Bronze Crowns I'm aiming for:
-Paladin (2 more)
-Necromancer (8 more)
-Fiend (3 more)
-Eclipse (7 more)
Italicized ones have changed. I'm debating how long I should stay here or if I head to the Jungle of Dread with the same setup as Ram... all I need is enough fire salt to get enough Dragon Mice (do I need 1 or 3?) to get into Balack's Cove and the Seasonal Garden.
Digs, I didn't even realize empowered anchor charms were craft-able

I have discovered that I am apparently cursed. In the last three or four tournaments, I have caught one mouse in the first hour (not counting trap checks) . I must say that's highly annoying as I watch our team ranking plummet into the depths . Thankfully after the first hour my bad luck wears off and I catch mice on a regular basis. And I'm also glad my team doesn't share the same bad luck.
We had another successful top 25% placement yesterday which brings my Tournament Token total to 164. (That's kind of fun to say... )

Your Dragon Jade Base will increase your catch rate by about 5% according to Furoma.com.
@wolf, eeesh, of all the places to be farming King's Crowns..... I admire your patience with the Gauntlet. I don't have it.

Well thank you It is my favorite part of the game so far.
Two minor pieces of news. I got one more Sock Puppet Ghost, and
I've hit 80% Knight.
I've done some math and I've caught 258/361 mice in the game (including event mice). Also I currently have 36 Silver Crowns and 136 Bronze Crowns (No Gold Crowns yet ) This means there are 86 mice that I have caught, but not yet gotten any crowns for (including 4 mice in the Guantlet, the entire Dreaded Horde, and the 2 mice I got in Dracano). There's also an additional 103 mice I have yet to catch (including 7 event mice, the Silth, and the Dragon). Basic point I have quite a ways to go...
Currently the closest I've gotten to a Gold Crown is the Ghost Mouse of which I have captured 384. The Sock Puppet Ghost mouse is my highest of the Bronze Crowns at 96. Finally the closest I am to a new Bronze Crown is 8 catches, which is shared by various mice in the game (including the Paladin).

I finished warriors just a few hours before and is continuing to kill some archers, half done with them, ill be done with wave hopefully near end of week or beginning of next week, then on to wave3
Wolf: I have never spent enough time in KG for eclipse, lolol
I'm back in the Tribal Isles farming Pepper Seeds so I can make Inferno Havarti and hunt in the JoD. I farmed 20 Tier 2 potions. I remember fk saying, I think in the very first MH thread, that she thought the best way to do the Gauntlet is farm Tier 2 potions ten or fifteen at a time and then leave and do something else so you don't get too bored and then go back a while later and farm ten or fifteen more and just keep repeating that cycle so you don't get bored with the Gauntlet. I am one of those people who would get bored very very fast so I think that will be the best way for me to do it.
It's really nice to be back in the Tribal Isles. It seemed like I was stuck at 57% on my way to Lady for days during the New Years event (and in the Gauntlet). Now that I'm back where there's bigger and better mice to catch, my percentage is going up faster again.
I finished clearing my warriors yesterday. I was hoping to get my archers out of the way as well, but I kept getting interruptions from sand cavalry mice, FTA's, Stales, and even another pesky caravan guard. (There were three friends in the area at the time, and he still successfully added troops )
At any rate, I'll probably have the archers cleared before afternoon, and then I'll probably go after my remaining mages.

im currently clearing my sentinels, seeing as i finished archers already... just started, so 0-38-0-41-19...i havent really used commander charms here yet, by teh way, i have 6, is that good amount?
i have 6, is that good amount?
It's not a terrible amount, and it's probably enough for you to start using them. On waves 1 and 2 I don't use them unless I've got a streak of 6. On wave 3, I'll use them on a streak of four or five (depending on my mood )
Finished off my archers, and now I'm close to finishing off my mages.

Doing a Catacombs tourny this morning. It'll probably be the last tourny I'll be doing for a few days as I'll be afk for most of the weekend. (Too bad cause there was a two day Warpath Marching tourny which would have been perfect for our team. Ah well, next time.)
So glad to see wil and DiGs doing well in the Warpath.

If you've got 'em and you get a good streak, use 'em.
Well, using my Soul Catcher, I got the Dreaded Horde and it only took me a couple of days. But, I'm ahead of myself because of the Crobot, so I am in Digby trying to get the two mice I'm missing and farming points so that I can make the traps I need to go to Dracano. I'll be in different areas probably farming points for a while.
Love God, love people
Rachel, you do realise that your Acolyte mouse is next on the list. . . not Dracano. . . right?
Why is it that I can only catch Crimson Commander mice on a streak of one Caught another one, and the only mice left are my Sand Cavalry mice
Member of Ye Olde NarniaWeb
Actually, yes, I did, sort of. I was planning on going after the Acolyte Mouse as soon as I get the Ancient Box Trap. But I hadn't really looked beyond that yet. Mentioning Dracano was only because that's the only place I have open that I haven't been to yet.
And I have lots of time before I go anywhere since I'm nearly at 15 million points and still have to get a couple more million before the Ancient Box Trap.
But thanks for the heads up!

You need the Acolyte in order to be able to hunt in Dracano It drops the parts for the Ice Maiden, which is really the only thing capable of tackling those mice, I believe. That's what Digs meant.
