Dave and I went out to finish our nin and blm duo. He managed to kill me while we were checking duo possiblities in the promies... he died too and we decided a real party is the way to go. We got a party together (thf, thf, smn and whm to go with our nin and blm) and headed out to Behemoths Dominion and were doing... mostly okay. WHM wasn't the best and the thfs were iffy... but we managed to get a rythm going. I only died once, when the lower level thf said "Ill just zone it" about the greater gayla that we weren't quite up to fighting yet. he then hit his flee macro, hit the mob and took off for the zone line. I was resting my mp and probably shouldn't have been. when he lost the mob it came back, saw me sitting and smacked me... I took off for the zone and was killed waaaay before i got there and before anyone else could get any kind of hate ; ;.
We managed to get a level and a half done before Dave had to go. Dave was at 35 and I was into 36 so I decided to keep going just to finish it- neither of us is currently planning to go higher than 37 (well dave might go to 40, but I'm not gonna :p) so another party that I was only going to be there for at max 2 levels didn't make sense. dave had a pld coming out to replace him and while they were on the way (dying once, homepointing to start out again o.o) we kept going... and our whm dinged/ditched us. Got a dnc to come out and sometime around then our smn had to go and got a whm to replace them. then one of the thfs left and got a drk... at this time the only people in the party that were there from the start were the lower thf and myself... the pld died a couple times, but that was it, and we had a whm to raise her. I dinged and asked everyones tnl (I am tired as hell.. hence the hard to read/not very well told story) and only got one reply- the drk. she only had 300 or so so I said I'd stay til she was done. About then the thf from the start asked "does anyone mind if in 10 mins I watch a 30 min show? I'll be here during commercial breaks and return to party after its done".. and then got a replacement to come out. well, the drk kicked him and got his replacement in the party and we started going again. he logged so he must have figured he wasn't coming back :o.
When the drk dinged I found someone to replace me and she said she had someone coming to replace her as well... so the race was on :D My replacement won, so I thanked everyone for getting my sj finished, gave all my pies and cookies to the rdm who was replacing me 'cause I didn't have much left and wont be using it for a while and warped home, a full sj blm.
I actually think it was kinda cool that by the time I left, I was the last person from the original party there. They were going to keep going too. In some odd way it felt right that the party kept going and it would be kinda cool if you went back later and the party, even if it had many replacements was still going. Like a perpetual motor or something.
that must be the tired talking. I'm outta here, night all. sorry for any grammar/spelling issures :o
