[EVE] Goodbye, Signal Cartel

Between my new found interest in Guild Wars 2, my forever interest in Wurm Online, and my sporadic interest in World of Warcraft, I have not had much time for EVE lately. No surprise there, I am after all the ‘nomadic’ gamer. It means my interests ebb and flow and I tend to bounce around from familiar game to familiar game. Speaking of, only a little while before EverQuest Legends releases, and yes, I absolutely plan on playing that one.

EVE is one of those games where you pretty much HAVE to be active – especially if you’re in a corporation. I didn’t feel like I could keep up my end of the bargain when it comes to playing, so I decided to step down from Signal Cartel, and rejoin my corporation of one, Quail Creations.

Honestly the nomadic playstyle suits me, there’s no pressure to log in if I get distracted by something else shiny, and most of what I was doing in EVE is something I can continue to do on my own anyway. I can still do all of my wormhole exploration, and while I will miss flying with Allison, I’m confident that I’ll continue to find my way, and I’ll get some stories going again after some time. I do also hope to continue with the bookmarks series over on YouTube, but I know I’ve been ‘away’ for some time. Life has been a lot lately, so my free time has been quite limited.

In any case, there were no hard feelings anywhere, it was just time for me to realize the reality of my situation. While I absolutely adore EVE, and Signal Cartel, I just haven’t had the time lately. At least this way I can’t let anyone down, my stuff is (mostly) safe in High Sec, I’m still living out of a Wormlife Freeport, and the days go on.

Fly your way! o7

[EQL] EverQuest Legends Pre-Orders go Live

On Tuesday June 16th – after a few false starts – the EverQuest Legends pre-order went live. I heard a lot of people having issues, failed attempts, no confirmation, etc, but mine seems to have gone through without any problems.

The game is $19.99 and comes with 30 days of game time. It also includes a character name reservation and access to beta, starting July 1st for those who are not already in it. If you happen to be getting an error one of the easiest solutions I see is to make sure you have updated credit information – these accounts are pretty old, after all.

Will I play this long term? Well. We’ll see. I’m confident that I’ll manage to get my value for the time I do play, and if I stick around, great. I’d love to meet up with others who are going to give it a whirl, maybe even join a guild. If this sounds like something you’re interested in don’t hesitate to let me know!

[WO] A Deliverance Deed

When I started Wurm Online back in 2010, I lived on the Deliverance server. It was a great place, but as the years went on I started feeling like it was a bit small for me. I moved around, living pretty much every server in the SFI cluster and eventually 6 years ago I settled down on Independence, which is where my main deed is (and remains today) along with my secondary deed. The thing is, the Independence server is HUGE, and I’ve never really enjoyed running treasure maps on that server.

So when Moumix started talking about his Deliverance get away, I decided to take a peek and see if I could find anything that suited me.

Turns out, the perfect location (for me) happened to be open. If I sail straight South from my deed on Independence, I end up at this island on Deliverance. It had been undeeded for only 4 days, and so I decided right then and there to claim Quail Point.

I decided it would be a sort of ‘holding’ deed, for my priests. That I could leave them here to pray and spam treasure maps, and I could decide if maps were worth it for me, and if I enjoyed doing them over here any more than on Independence. So far I’ve collected almost 20 maps, but I haven’t actually made a run to complete them – yet. Instead I’ve been working on building the deed up. I want it to be a castle rising from the water. Unlike my main deed, this one is not really for things like farming or animal husbandry. Instead I wanted it to be a safe haven to hang out in for my priest characters.

On that same note, I actually joined an alliance over on Deliverance. I have not belonged to one for many MANY years, preferring to keep to myself. It’s very nice to see chatter happening, and to make some new friends. I’m also trying not to rush forward and just take my time and let things come naturally. In any case, lots of building is happening, gaining lots of skills, and I’m having a blast playing (as I always do). Happy gaming, no matter where you find yourself!

[WoW] Gold Making Wrap Up – Week 24 (2026)

Well, sales are slowly starting back up! I’ve opted to go every 24h again instead of 48h (the change hasn’t happened yet, but it will) and I almost made 1 million gold profit again. Not as much as I usually make, but I am still getting back into the swing of things (and I do still need to restock, I keep putting it off because it’s a lot of work).

Most of the sales this week were smaller recipes and a few sprinklings of transmog – nothing overly expensive, and that’s OK. Sales came from all 10 servers, with Azgalor (my home server) taking the lead once again. Let’s see what next week brings as I get back into static gold making habits.

Happy gaming, no matter where you find yourself!

[WO] Capybara Tent – Obtained!

I’ve been trying to purchase a Capybara tent to go with the rest of my collection for quite some time. I posted on forums looking for one and I had been advertising in trade chat in game – and today, finally. It paid off.

Remember when I bought the wagon? When I obtained banners. When I turned the wagon rare. Well, I had been trying to buy a tent ever since May of 2025, and I FINALLY got a hit this week.

40 silver later, the tent is mine. I love it so very much. These items are called ‘PMK’ items – they are from player made kingdoms, in this case the Chaos server. This particular PMK no longer exists, so you can’t make any new capybara items. I’ve been collecting bits and pieces to this collection for some time and the tent was the final piece I needed. Now I just need to turn it rare.

As always, happy gaming, no matter where you find yourself!
