Melee for the win.

Hey guys, lots of things have happened. The skill of the month contest has started! I basically achieved all the goals I had set to accomplish prior to the start of it.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

70 range - Check

70 prayer - Check (this cost me a pretty penny, around 5 million gold)

70 summoning - I got 69, ran out of time.

Its currently the 3rd day of the competition and by the end of the night I should have almost 2 mil experience. I'm in a strong second place behind Ddaanniiellh. He's already past 2.5 mil xp o.O He's a cool guy though and we've doing stuff in between our training like God Wars and Giant Mole Hunting.

Jagex has updated the game with the addition of dungeon maps and a new style of HP bars for both monsters and players. I don't really like or dislike the new HP bar though there are many people who have very strong opinions about it. I'm having to re-learn how to gauge when to heal since the new ones are much longer.

The other day I took ascended phoenix on a God Wars raid. All was going very well. We had a very nice amount of people show up and our third kill we got a Bandos HIlt! A 1.8 mil split, was nice. Then my computer lagged and I got sent back to Falador by my ring of wealth. I hurried back to tank for my team. I got back to the dungeon and after a few kills my computer blue screened on me while I was tanking! I lost aproximately 3.5 mil in armour. It wasn't good. My clan mates couldn't bless my grave since Jagex has stupidly made it that your grave dissapears if you log out.

So now instead of training at the Dagannoths as originally planned I'm mostly training via slayer to try and make up some of the money that I lost.
