(Ok?)
(Wtf?) Please close this thread lol :P
Don't participate in the event if you don't want to. You know where the destroy button is in your inventory.

I bet a quite a few people will get the 4th tier cake.

/optimism
Since I'm trying to get money to get my Major Arcana Robes (just need the main piece now), I might sell the items if they're transferrable.

If not, I might just try and eat... eum... I mean, transform the cakes to get an EWS :D

Wait, what was the topic again? Ah yeah, the cake has to be a lie, cause I'm on a diet. Gotta lose 15 pounds! -sighs-
You are Italian... You are supposed to have a little meat on ya!

Yeah but I don't like the extra 15 pounds. I ate too much chocolate in the last few months due to a stressful period in my life (I tend to crave sweets when I'm nervous), and now I'm not happy with the extra weight!

Nope. Diet it is. And now they release a cake event, that's so not fair. :(:(

pfffft, come back when youve packed on 65. :gently rubs beer gut:

All I read is -

"HAI BOYS IM AN ITALIAN GIRL WITH A LITTLE JUNK IN HER TRUNK!"

Oh I'm married (That would be enough to explain how my previous post had no further meaning). The junk in the trunk won't be commented though.

And it's just very cruel of NCsoft to make us hunt for chocolate and cake when we can't eat them in real life. Girls know what I'm talking about (at least those that have been through diets before!)
Women. Just Eat... Nothing annoys a guy more when they take a woman out, and they order a 'Salad'... Hungry? Get a **** Steak w/Desert.

We won't complain, trust me. (Besides, we're not too keen on sharing at times, order what you want, not Nibble our stuff)

Heh I never really do that, to be honest. I hate when people want to nibble at my plate in the restaurant. But I feel uncomfortable with myself if I'm slightly overweight, so that's when I know it's time for a diet.

It's nothing to do with what men think, in my case. Hubby says he doesn't care, and I know he doesn't. But if it makes me uncomfortable, it means it's time to do a quick diet and lose those extra pounds.

PS: And I don't go to a restaurant to order a salad. If I have to go out, I'll skip one day of my diet and eat what I want. If I want a salad, I'll eat it at home heh...

OH MY GOD VALERIE, life is for living!!!! Food is for eating!!! Go go... and everything in moderation!! :D In no time, your weight will even out.

And as a "girl," I resent that statement. Doesn't it kind of embarrass you that you actually think this way??? Harumphf.
Nah. I'm not a slave to diets. I just do them when I'm slightly overweight and need to lose a few pounds.

You're telling me you're never been on a diet before, Armieeee?
I have never been on a diet. ^^
Best diet I know is student vodka diet! I lost 7 kg's in 2 first weeks when I came to Denmark. That was pretty wild party time :D
I hope I can participate on this. ;)

Val? What's your lvl now? :P
Armie, let me guess, you don't put on weight? :D

And Mega, I'm 71 and 50%.
70 and 50%!

I'm gaining terrain! ;)
I haven't had as much time to level as I had before. And always solo too, except for recently that I've been kidnapped to party with a friend in Hot Springs. I leech my SE at all times too.

I'm not in a hurry though. I will be more in a hurry when I can get the main part of my Major Arcana so I can wear it (Although I hate the looks heh)

(Grats on 70 by the way!)
Valerie diet ? or les lineage 2 and more workout??? hmmm???
Heh Lineage is hardly the reason why I don't workout, although I was going to the gym until last month, but got way too much work to do now. I usually finish working at around 7pm, then it's time to take care of the laundry, then my husband gets home, time to cook, clean the dishes, get the laundry... then when I get that ALL done, I play L2.

We're buying a couple of bicycles now to go at least during the weekends, at least.

I usually play lineage after 10pm my time. That's hardly a good time to work out, now is it? ;)
I am hungry...dont talk about food...cakes..big cakes... :P~~

YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO SING ALONG!!!!

so.....


This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here:
HUGE SUCCESS.
It's hard to overstate
my satisfaction.
Aperture Science
We do what we must
because we can.
For the good of all of us.
Except the ones who are dead.
But there's no sense crying
over every mistake.
You just keep on trying
till you run out of cake.
And the Science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.
For the people who are
still alive.


I'm not even angry.
I'm being so sincere right now.
Even though you broke my heart.
And killed me.
And tore me to pieces.
And threw every piece into a fire.
As they burned it hurt because
I was so happy for you!
Now these points of data
make a beautiful line.
And we're out of beta.
We're releasing on time.
So I'm GLaD. I got burned.
Think of all the things we learned
for the people who are
still alive.

Go ahead and leave me.
I think i prefer to stay inside.
maybe you'll find someone else
to help you.
maybe Black Mesa...
THAT WAS A JOKE, HA HA, FAT CHANCE.
Anyway this cake is great.
It's so delicious and moist
look at me still talking when theres science to do
when i look out there
it makes me glad I'm not you
i've experiments to run
there is research to be done
on the people who are
still alive.

and believe me I am still alive
I'm doing science and I'm still alive
i feel fantastic and I'm still alive
while your dying ill be still alive
and when your dead i will be still alive
still alive
still alive



Man i need to reinstall that now....
This song makes much more sence for those who played Portal :) I strongly recomend you this game.
I love that song and that game. :D

Yeah :( Married (and single too) women that work end up doing two jobs, one true job and the job around the house.

And that's cause I don't have a child yet :D
Why do you guys have to keep talking about cake? Now I'm getting hungry...

At least you can HAVE cake, Kinslon! QQ! I still have 10 days before I can eat some cake :D
LoL @ Kinslon!
assume the party escort submission position or you will miss the party
Valerie. You can have cake any time you want!! Remember... moderation!! :D <3
I can tell that my stash of chocies is going to diminish in size through the week...

I'm grumpy already
Valerie. You can have cake any time you want!! Remember... moderation!! :D <3

Nope, nope, at least not until the second week. Then every Saturday I choose a little indulgement of my own (Which will probably not include cake though!).
I like how this topic has absolutely nothing to do with the l2 event.

really, I do ^^
Val doesn't need a diet. You are just fine.

*proceed to send Val a dozen min chocolate cakes
Hey but dont eat them all...i want some too :P
-sighs- That's not a very friendly thing to do, Nas dear! :D
Banana cakes? =P
all these cakes... now i am hungry.. =[

I'm a woman. Even when I was smaller than a toothpick I'd eat more than people thought I could, and I was proud of it! I didn't care about the whole diet/salad/eatlikeabird thing. Still don't. *wink*

Dieting is silly to me. Starving your body of what it needs it rediculous. The most 'dieting' I've done is using my noggin! It's not hard to eat normal and be healthy. No carb counting, no diet foods, no fake sugar. That's all silly. I love all kinds of food, and I love eating as much as my husband does, steak and all. I'm not ashamed! I'm not going to let myself be bound by fashion magazines and all that crap. As long as I'm happy with myself, that's all that matters to me. Life is more than just book covers, and anyone who thinks otherwise is seriously missing out. :p

Lol...stepping down from the soapbox now. How did that get there anyway? :rolleyes:

As for the cakes in this event, I LOVE it! I read their names and drooled. I'm so tempted to go to the store and get a chocolate cake. So yummy. I love chocolate and frosting. *winka-wink*

+1 to this event. Anything that makes me drool--food or otherwise--is a good thing! hehe :D

I highlighted that part of your post. Me dieting has nothing to do with book covers or fashion magazines (I don't even buy them). It has to do with the fact that if I put on 15 pounds, go wear my jeans and they're a little tighter than they should be, I'm not happy with myself. So I do a fast, controlled diet (nothing radical, but sweets are NOT included in any controlled weight loss program as far as I know), and lose those, and go back to eating normally.

I am not advertising those "starve to death" diets. When I say "diet", what I mean is cutting down on sugar and eating more healthily. More vegetables, more lean meat (meat is bad anyway, I rarely eat it cause I don't like it much), less chocolate and junk food.
Well, dieting to me is like a sickness imposed by society so that most women go on them because of some forced view of what perfection is according to some really strange people.

As long as you feel good in that body, just eat what the body wants you to eat. It is uncommonly right-on all the time... People make jokes about pregnant women and what they crave, but that is true in the non-pregnant state too. If you really listen to your body and you eat what you crave, you will always be healthy. Even if that is pickles and saltines.

One of the things I love about France and Italy is that there are rarely obese people there because of their healthy attitude about food. <3

And I am hoping I will love this event too. I glad there is some creativity being used.
Me too...on the event. :) I'm a bit sad that's it's another farming one, but I'm just going to roll with it and get what I get while I hunt. I'm sure me and my clannies will be sharing ingredients for the recipe...how fun! Baking little cakes together. So cute. *wink*

Drooling again... ^_^
i crave FRAKING SPICY chicken wings.

the kind that makes you sweat blood.

healthy ?
ofc. What's in those spices and perhaps the chicken has something your body needs. The chilis have some recuperative powers for the heart you know.

Haha you said Fraking. ;)

Think it's actually with a 'ck', and you probably meant 'freaking', but it's still funny. ^_^
i left out the E on purpose, cause after eating these wings i usually do like Mini me and run around saying EEE EEE EEE
Haha you said Fraking. ;)

Oo i guess you don't watch BSG.... shame on you!
The only issue I have with this event is the rewards. I already have to many enchants in my WH from cubics no need for meore LOL. Buff scrolls or juices would be much more appreciated by me. However it does sound like another event for making some adena selling parts.
Yeah, i feel the same. I already see it coming that we only will get D grade enchants and maybe with luck a B grade enchant and the rest is anyway shadow stuff of no need. Upgrading the cake is going to be hardcore and a luck issue. Bots certanly will get a big andvantage of it.
I would prefer that instead getting enchant rewards, some vit herbs or regen. Like vita pops or somthing related for regain vit lvls.
OMG People....

This thread was not a complaint against the event -_-
Y'all TOTALLY missed the point....



PS: It was not about some diet either >_>
Yeah but although I know what it was about (Portal. That should say it), I felt it was off topic enough so we could drag it anyway we wanted :D
I want vita! i want vita! viittttaaaaaa :P
Oo i guess you don't watch BSG.... shame on you!

Lol that's why I pointed out 'fracking', but that it was missing the 'c'. ^_^ I watch it...I'm watching the new one as I type this and I watched the old one when I was a kid. ;)
OMG People....

I'm all for the event. :) I think it's going to be fun! A valentine's event with a new twist is awesome! :D
Will the event items drop off of mobs in the catacombs or is it only overland mobs?
If it's the same as every other event, it will be all mobs excluding quest mobs (orange name) and raid & kama bosses.
Great. for some reason though I just can't remember ever seeing event items drop off of catacomb mobs. but if they do, great!
They do. I remember back in the treasure sack event, my dorfie was AoEing and she got a LOT of sack pieces from catacombs.
If it's the same as every other event, it will be all mobs excluding quest mobs (orange name) and raid & kama bosses.
Actually, I remember doing that Raid Boss in Ancient Battleground, and the only thing it dropped was a Nectar... so they drop from Raid Bosses too ...
I farmed 1hour in BS and no drop at all... O.o' I got the recipe and used it. There is a little bug thrugh, maybe it isnt one but, after you learned it, you can purchase a nother one and only after that the cat says to you that she cant give you a recipe again because i already have one xD

Well any tipps where they drop? because 1h in BS 0% drop
I can't wait to start hunting for this event!
Wowww...i am with my low lvl figther in Cruma tower, just outside...1h xping 2 black chocos... =\ this drop rate is kinda... O.o'
Like this, those items will be sold for a high price..so its better to sell them instead of getting EAD or EWD xD
I heard the same thing and experienced it across some toons for the last squash event they had. Conversely, I also had great drop-rates...depended on the day and the area, I suppose. ^^

I'm still looking forward to it all. Gathering ingredients for yummy cakes is just awesome. Wish I could eat them all! *glomp*
Nah. I'm not a slave to diets. I just do them when I'm slightly overweight and need to lose a few pounds.

You're telling me you're never been on a diet before, Armieeee?

Don't diet, just eat normally and workout, you'll go from being skinny and unhealthy to normal sized and strong :D

This is even what guys do...eat, eat, and eat, then workout and soon all that build turns into muscle...

what you can do is just normally eat, then workout and you have a nice slender strong build.

PS: don't go trying to look like one of those pencil models, cause they're ALL ugly. We like girls with a little meat on them ;) and lol junk in the trunk.
lol I need to lose 15 pounds. Not trying to look like pencil models. Just what's necessary in order to make me not have to buy new pants.

And if I had time to workout, trust me, I would.
LOL in meanwhile i tryed my lyck without any success outside cruma tower, other players just didnt picked up the event drops! i picked them all up and now i already have items for make 2 cakes. So they drop...but why not when i am farming? O.o' Tes, i have the recipe and already in use...so thats not the problem..
got round 100 white and dark and 40 cream in hmm round 2h ;)


found a nova bottrain with i guess bad walker setup dunno but would explain why only eventitems were on the ground

10min bashing pickup till the trainowner got back and pked my bishop ;)

do u feel guilty when u steal from cheating ppl ?
hell no damm i miss the train the bots get their gear days
Hope you reported them.

According to what I've been reading.. walker doesn't support this event. ;)
If it's the same as every other event, it will be all mobs excluding quest mobs (orange name) and raid & kama bosses.

Did a Kama 36 on my alt yesterdayevening, and got a white choco dropped.
So confirmed that Kama's also drop them
Quess the only thing that DONT drop them are "Quest mob"s (and NPC's in fortresses?)
All this talk of cake, and cream and velvet is making me hungry.... I think I'll go to the store and make me a yummy cake :>
****, I was proven wrong last night. Someone picked up a mat from Brak.

And grats to the New DS and 5th Nobles on Sayha!
event mobs prolly drop em too
just FYI summons usually drop event items too. i used to start every event big booming in town for my first event item until they made that impossible :(
Ugh so I got a transformation scroll and I unsummon it and it vanishes? I knew it had 30min use time but ****... it's gone! I didn't even get to show some of my buds!
(and NPC's in fortresses?)

Did a fort last night and got a few so they do drop from fort NPC's also
Ugh so I got a transformation scroll and I unsummon it and it vanishes? I knew it had 30min use time but ****... it's gone! I didn't even get to show some of my buds!

I'll agree, that stinks.

On another note along the lines of this event, I wish they would be consistant with the time the rewards last from event-to-event. The agathion being shadow this time and rudolph being seasonal...hm. Frustrating. But then again I'm an accessory-holic. ^^ Oh well...it will be fun anyway. Got my first ingredients last night. Can't wait to make a cake. :)

YES THIS IS ALL STILL MAKING ME VERY HUNGRY!

Watch out, hungry orc on a rampage!!:eek:
I got enough to make one last night...95% chance of success...I of course FAILED it :( Glad I'm not a dwarf or I'd be hated by all on the server for my bad luck...
Aw :( Well hopefully you'll get to try your hand at more before the event ends. :) Good luck!
I'll agree, that stinks.

On another note along the lines of this event, I wish they would be consistant with the time the rewards last from event-to-event. The agathion being shadow this time and rudolph being seasonal...hm. Frustrating. Actually, I still am able to summon my Rudolf. I do it when we lose our fort and before we get it back... Cuz it's so lonely to xp without a little buddy humming in your ear :D ;)

Yeah I've noticed those out still. ^^ Cute little buggars. I have one, I just don't use it atm. I still wish they would be consistant with descriptions and time limits of items though.
I don't! don't make me get rid of my Rudolph! I will still be using him in JUNE.

<3
Consistant as in making all agathions never-ending. ^^ Especially the v-day one, as I've heard rumors that it's cute. :)
