Finally back up over the 100,000 mark as far as coins!! It took a bit longer than I would have liked, but I think I'm doing the best I can given my lack of funds as I have been unable to buy much of anything. Although I did invest in a few hundred Prospector's Charms to go with my swiss, NVRMC, and Bacon Base. With the exception of the Bacon Base, this was the suggested course of action on the Wiki page..... Probably missing out not having access to the Base that they suggested, but this appears to be my best setup. So I'm happy.

Except for the fact that my orbs and a couple of extra Prospector Charms I was selling didn't go. If someone would be willing to pay the big coins for those things, well, I'd be a happy, um, hunter!

You might have better luck crafting some of the better charms, EtJ. People are probably more willing to buy an Anti-Skele charm (which can be made using the same orbs dropped by the Gold and Diamond mice). They also sell for a higher price (about 2500 each).

I know that there are a few of you out there who are interested in crafting ACRONYM, and who are worried about the cost of crafting it (;) @ DotK and Chloe ). To ease your minds, here are some statistics from the past 24 hours I've spent in the catacombs:

TRAP: ACRONYM
BASE: Tiki
BAIT: Radioactive Blue Cheese
CHARM: None

Trap Power: 5200
Power Bonus: 30%
Luck: 25 (Lucky Golden Shield Active)
Cheese Effect: Very Stale
Attraction Bonus: 5%

Net Gold Earned: 133,593
Net Points Earned: 202,839
Average Gold Per Hour: 5,556
Average Points Per Hour: 8,452

Mice Caught:
6 Keepers Assistant (12%)
9 Skeleton (18%)
1 Terror Knight (2%)
7 Spider (14%)
5 Scavenger (10%)
2 Golem (4%)
4 Ghost (8%)
1 Bat (2%)
3 Zombie (6%)
5 Ooze (10%)
3 Giant Snail (6%)
2 Vampire (4%)
2 Mummy (4%)

Total Trap Checks: 67
Attraction Rate: 100%
Cheese Stale: Zero Pieces
Total Mice Caught: 50 (74.6%)
Total Mice Missed Without Plunder: 13 (19.4%)
Total Mice Missed With Plunder: 4 (6.0%)
Total Points Plundered: 659
Total Gold Plundered: 8802

Loot Drops:
9 Ancient Potions
1 Radioactive Blue Cheese
4 Scrap Metal

So. . . ACRONYM is definitely worth it. You might not do quite as well at first, especially as you probably wont' have a base as awesome as the tiki base, but you'll still EASILY make over 100K per 24 hour period. I hope that helps you guys.

Hunting in the Mountain, DiGs. Can't craft the Antiskele yet. I'm lacking a charmbit. I think that's all though.

Can't you buy the charmbit from the Mountain? Or am I missing an important detail here?

Edit!

7:30 pm - Town of Digby
I returned to check my trap, but it appeared a Zombie Mouse had eaten a piece of cheese without setting it off

Grrr!!!

Oh, looky there! You can! OK, then!

People are probably more willing to buy an Anti-Skele charm [as opposed to a Simple Orb]

Just a quick word of warning... be sure to check the prices before crafting AntiSkele Charms. The other day when I looked, I would have lost money because it costs an additional 900g to make them but they were only selling for about 750g more than the orbs. I think most of you are smart enough to figure that out on your own, but I thought I'd mention that anyways.

Go Wolf, you'll get him!! *insert cheerleading smily here*

So, I'm hanging around in the Dojo, mainly because its there, and I realized I was missing two mice, the Worker and Assassin. I caught the Worker at 5:30 today, and, earlier, I caught.....

A TREASURER MOUSE!

...which may go to prove that catching one of the three especially special mice (Treasurer, Snooty, or High Roller) in between events does NOT reset your luck count.

Yeah, I've had a couple of encounters with Treasurer mice since the end of the King's Reward event, but I've missed them each time . It's good to know that I won't lose all of my points if I do catch one though .

I did very well in the Catacombs overnight, but didn't manage to snag any more Scrap Metal. I figure that by the time I've got enough, I'll be rich enough to purchase all of my trap upgrades for sometime

Same here. I need 3 more pieces for the ACRONYM. No loot drop last night except for Ancient Potions and the KEEPER'S CANDLE!

Though, I won't be able to go to those new locations for a while, at least I have them open.

As you probably know, the keeper's candle gives you access to the forbidden grove. I cannot stress this enough: As soon as you have access to the grove (assuming that you'll have ACRONYM), get in there and start farming runes. You will need 60 runes to craft the Ice Maiden, and you'll need at LEAST 50 more to have a go at an acolyte mouse (by turning them into runic cheese). You can never have enough runes

Mm, 'kay. I was looking at the Wiki for things I need to do/get before I enter those locations and it seems that once I have the ACRONYM, I'm all set for the Forbidden Grove. So maybe, after I build the ACRONYM, I'll farm some gold to stock up on Ancient Cheese and then head over there.

Congrats on the Keeper's Candle Chloe.

Personally I'd put higher priority on building your ship and getting over to the Tribal Isles, but I guess there's no reason at all you can't farm runes and gold for your ship at the same time.

Feedback Friday today in 1hr40min. Hopefully I won't zone out again and miss it.

Thanks!

I was thinking about building the ship...since a lot depends on it...

But what I need for the ship is:
1 King's Reserve Bubbleh
18 Scrap Metal
69 Bolts of Cloth
93 Ropes
541 Splintered Wood

That's a lot of stuff. I need more gold! Haha...I have the blueprints, but literally NONE of the things needed to craft it...

Not to mention that scrap metal seems to be in pretty high demand for both of us right now .

Speaking of which, I managed to get two more pieces today while in Organic Chemistry (thank heavens for hourly trap checks!!!!). One of them was on my hourly, and one of them was thanks to you, Chloe . *high fives* I love getting taken on hunts with my friends

159 down, 41 to go!

I just checked your profile and realized that on that particular hunt a mouse stole my cheese and I didn't get anything! *snickers* Oh, joy.

In fact, since 9am, I've only caught 3 mice...Lame...
