Starting point: A Blade of Thuringwethil [73x11] (+3) 89,827
Current state: A Blade of Thuringwethil [73x11] (+63) 4,960,106

NW change: 4,870,279
at 70%: 3.4m
received so far: 6m

12 points left on the + and after that, I'm going to skyrocket this baby into the top 10 bth with the x...if j'bob can pay that much :-)

A reminder for those who visit my small forging post:
After this job, I have hatch and painkiller in the line...if they are still waiting for it, that is.

TheHatchetman April 13 2008 4:30 AM EDT

Saving cash as we type ^_^ Well... As I type, you're prolly reading by the time you see this... Then again, I'll prolly still be saving the next time you type to, so I guess it's a wash...

NW change: 6,104,449
at 70%: ~4.3m
received so far: 6m

Hatch sent word that he's saving even more money for me to burn on his VB, so it promises alot.
And end in line is still painkiller, after this, anyone who wants my services, will be paying 72% base forging fee.

I'll consider forging harder items at 85%(depending on Wasps recommendation).

Finally hit +75, now it's time to forge this baby to do some monstrous damage with each and every hit.

NW increase: 7,892,493
at 70%: ~5.5m

With the money received so far, this BTH will reach about 13m NW.

Next 2 in line: hatch and painkiller.

NW increase: 8,627,581
at 70%: 6m
received so far: 9m

2/3rd of received money has been achieved.
With the remaining 3m spent on the weapons x, it'll be something like
A Blade of Thuringwethil [73x665] (+75).
Give or take a few x...

I'm curious whether this BTH will get in top10 by the end of the 9m received...

{cb1}Linguala April 22 2008 3:08 AM EDT

NW increase: 9,925,715
at 70%: ~7m
received so far: 9m

A bit more than 2m to go, but still not in top 10 weapons...
Looks like it's going to be somewhat of a close call...

Next, the hatcher at 70% and painkiller also prolly at 70%.
After these 2 gentlemen, I'm raising the rate to 72%.

NW increase: 10,301,079
at 70%: ~7.2m
received so far: 11m

2m new funds...if all put into x of weapon, the end result will be something like x900+75.

On a side note, weapon his been forged into top 10 list as of a few minutes ago.

now, the 9th spot is the goal...will 11m worth of forging take a base bth to 9th spot?
Continue to follow this exciting adventure of Linguala forging.

Preview: Linguala keeps forging vigorously to reach first spot as forger and hitting 9th spot in top bth with the current job. But will real life prove to be a bigger obstacle? dam dam dam...

am I slower or am I flashing a bit?
LD is selling Oxcha, I wonder how forging with such a huge char would be like...I'm so tempted on blowing off my plans for ncb and just go for forging big time with that...Would be such a shame to use that as a forging tool though...moral dilemma not good for me.

Last million...seems like my calculation earlier was a bit off.
End state is probably going to be close to x1020+75.

Hatch, this means I'll probably be starting on your gear this Saturday...Unless j'bob wants me to keep forging for a bit longer that is.

Note to self: Add starting date of job.

j'bob May 1 2008 8:45 AM EDT

/sigh
as much as I'd love to keep you tied up in my basement working your magic on my BoTh, I should probably pay off a little debt first...
And let Hatch have a go with ya.
:)

TheHatchetman May 1 2008 11:27 AM EDT

j'bob wins the "Hatchy is still having his VB forged by Wasp" award! :P

Wasp is already prepaid for another 3.6m net worth. I'll send over 3.5m shortly after this reply to cover the first 4m net worth added to my VB, and to add another 1m net worth to j'bob's BoTh (unless for some reason he doesn't want it any bigger :P), so that I can coordinate a transfer that'll keep both forgers able to forge ^_^

{cb1}Linguala May 1 2008 2:07 PM EDT

Well what do you know, there IS comeraderie between the blenders.
Seems like I'll be hammering on your BoTH a bit longer j'bob, you lucky dog.

Koshka May 1 2008 2:15 PM EDT

"Seems like I'll be hammering on your BoTH a bit longer j'bob, you lucky dog. "

Is it just me, or is this thread getting a wee bit saucy?

j'bob May 1 2008 3:00 PM EDT

Woo Hoo!!!! An award!!! I won I won. I didn't even know I was nominated.
Gosh, well I have to first off thank the academy, the sole member of which is, Hatch. Also, I'd like to thank Hatch, without whom this wouldn't have been possible. Mostly, and above all I owe this award to...
Hatch..... (sniff) THANK YOU HATCHETMAN!!!
:D wOOT

Just wanted to post that one.
I'll make another post soon once I've forged all of the money by j'bob.
After that, it's a 1m NW extra, courtesy by Hatch.

Looks like there's a few more x left to go before the free NW on this BoTH can be used. 8th spot is getting closer and closer now, hehe.

And through blood sweat and tears (hopefully not too much blood tho) {cb1}Linguala forges my once baby BoTh to the # 8 spot!!! Yay ling!

{cb1}Linguala May 7 2008 12:12 AM EDT

A Blade of Thuringwethil [73x1195] (+75) 16,858,118

1m and a bit added...
lol, and hit 8th spot too, I hadn't even noticed that yet.
Let me know something hatch, your turn is up.
Will send BoTH back when I'm back from work.

TheHatchetman May 7 2008 1:19 AM EDT

I'll have Wasp send it over to you as soon as he's done withe the current point. ^_^

Have fun with it j'bob, it shouldn't be too hard to suck life now :-)

Starting point: Ginsu- Built to Last [63x2612] (+138) 57,080,796

I'll continue with the + on it.
We'll see what Hatchet wants when he gets on.

{cb1}Linguala May 8 2008 4:57 PM EDT

One + added to it.
Ginsu- Built to Last [63x2612] (+139) 57,697,013 is current state.
4m of forging prepaid.
Next + added, I'll make my usual update thing.
