So last night, for the first time ever, I actually reached my goal in Heroes of the Realm; I broke the 2500s, ranking in at something like 2484 or so. However, I accomplished that by making myself absolutely-broke down to the penny (no, seriously, I had less than a hundred gold at one point) and equipping items to heroes that haven't yet been properly socketed. (Which means I'll have to progressively go through the process of unequipping and socketing them slowly.)
Now, though, that means I need new goals. Conveniently enough, I have a couple. The first is to remain steadily within the below-2500s, since I am as of this writing at 2512, meaning I need to ge better consistency. Should be just a matter of time, really. The second is going to be harder, and that's to make my guild break into the top-10 page-wise. It's currently sitting on page 12, albeit rather nicely. If I can do that, then I've firmly established myself as having a good spot in the game. After all...there are over 1400 guilds in the game. And I'm aiming for being in the top-150. (I'm slightly below that right now.)
And that's 2500 out of 117709, though it should be noted, thanks to the way the ranking system works, there's about a thousand or two pages worth of 117709s, with 14 to a page. Still, though, you get the idea. I've come a long way in the game, but I'm not yet done growing. As just one example, I got bumped down to Expert's, and I think that a third goal I can set for myself is to consistently be in the Champion's League. I make it up to there on more than just a fluke, and be able to STAY in there, and I've established myself as a credible player. And there, I still have a ways to go. For a start, not all of the heroes got their second upgrade.
I also haven't given them the same amount of care and attention my main army's been getting with regards to items and tracking down L18/20 equips, the best of the best for them. The main thing, though, that I need is L5 gems, and lots of them. Particularly Frost gems, since a ton of my equips rely on that.
In other news, kickboxing had its last day today. We basically chilled out and had some fun. We created combos, I got to show off my tae kwon do training by kicking really high and doing plenty of air-kicks, just a general good time.
Also, I did note something strange about the archives, in that there's only a link to the October archives showing, yet I see links to all three months of the blog on my master edit screen. Strange, and something I'll try to look into.
