THIS JUST IN - HUNTERS CAN COUNT!
we've proved that we can count to five, and count to five again, and count to potato. But I'm too lazy to link them now and I'm going to bed, so I hope they are still around in the morning.
Didn't we count to a BILLION?
Oh wait, no we didn't.
Cove glitches
Yada yada
Vanilla Stilton ongoing saga. Recipe not changed yet, and many hunters are hunkered down in the Jungle of Dread attempting to collect as many vanilla beans as they possibly can before the recipe changes. Let's face it, hunting pigmies is almost as exciting as staling Radioactive Sludge. I mean, you know it's bad when you long for even a Sylvan to break the monotony. Top-10 hunters have been caught asleep at the wheel. Many have asked themselves, "How many SB+ am I willing to use on this venture?" and headed back to Balack's Cove with 500-750 Vanilla Stilton. Others are selling all of their other virtual cheese in an attempt to stockpile as much magic essence as possible. SB+ prices are through the roof.
Note that the planned recipe is only a plan and until we see it, we don't know for sure. Many hunters are campaigning to keep it the same, link Save the VS thread here.
In the meantime, if you're hoarding beans you'll need to decide which cheese to use... reports indicate that using Vanilla Stilton is approximately as effective as using SuperBrie+.
Perhaps a mention along the lines of the potential changes later on :
Deanna L. Dowdy that's true. I may hold off on Balack until I know what they are going to do about the loot drop.
I'll probably just hunt the Lichs in the cove and stock up on the tokens I need to get Balack for now until I know about the loot drop...

ie: loot drops from the mice that we had to bust ass to get in the first place.
change in cheese recipe
why go for Ballack when you might have to do it again?
I'm scared to do anything:(
Like when I caught Acolyte #14 only to have to go back and do it again due to the sudden change of the mysterious box
erg
So- perhaps a disclaimer stating you play at you own risk. Whining is allowed but frowned upon
Shoutout Sunday
Gouda might have worked in the cove, but it doesn't seem to now.
clarify the limit on embers and the drop rate for dragons.

r does not exist in this space-time continuum.
So far, so good, and don't forget to sound the horn!

aka- Common Sense:
Obituary printed in the London Times - Interesting and sadly rather true.
Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who
has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was,
since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape.
He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as:
- Knowing when to come in out of the rain;
- Why the early bird gets the worm;
- Life isn't always fair;
- and maybe it was my fault.
Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend
more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children,
are in charge).
His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but
overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6-year-old boy
charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens
suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher
fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition.
Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the
job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly
children. It declined even further when schools were required to get
parental consent to administer sun lotion or an aspirin to a student;
but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted
to have an abortion.
Common Sense lost the will to live as the churches became businesses;
and criminals received better treatment than their victims. Common
Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar
in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault.
Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to
realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in
her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement. Common Sense was
preceded in death, by his parents, Truth and Trust, by his wife,
Discretion, by his daughter, Responsibility, and by his son, Reason.
He is survived by his 4 stepbrothers; I Know My Rights, I Want It Now,
Someone Else Is To Blame, and I'm A Victim.
Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone. If
you still remember him, pass this on. If not, join the majority and do
nothing.
