It’s time for… A giveaway! (Insert excited cacophony of music here)
This time there will only be one winner, mostly because I don’t have the energy or time to do much else. No particular reason, though I did hit a follower milestone sometime recently, so let’s go with that.
So!
This time I am going to give away… THE COLOSSUS.
That’s right, the precursor to The Juggernaut! To go with The Colossus the winner gets 75 ectoplasm AND 25 gold.
Now for the rules:
You do NOT have to be following me, but if you are I will throw in a full body, uncolored picture of your GW2 character.
One like and one reblog per person, please! I don’t want to spam dashboards with my goofy post (haha). Each counts as an entry.
You must have your ask box open and be willing to give me your in game name. The winner has 48 hours to respond before I draw for a new winner.
Pretty simple, yeah? I’ll do this drawing on Friday, June 9th sometime early afternoon after I get off of work (usually around 12 CST). My schedule tends to get shifted around a lot, so I will reblog this post one hour before I do the drawing to let everyone know.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask! Good luck to you all. :D
When I worked in fast food for minimum wage, they would yell at us and lecture us about “stealing” fries and burgers (while we had to throw out TONS of food every day) as though the giant billion-dollar corporations of McDonald’s and Sonic couldn’t afford to give their employees something to eat (while not even paying us a living wage).
Now I work at an upscale restaurant (it’s fancy, like celebrities eat there fairly often) and not only do I make WAY better money but they give us 2 free meals a day (eaten on the clock) and they’re GOOD. Today I got baked cod, spring rolls, rice pilaf, stir fry, and mashed potatoes and eggplant. Oh, and free espresso and juice. From this restaurant owned by a local man who is in no way a billionaire.
Obviously money is not the issue, valuing your employees as people is.
Background: our group was in a large city preparing to take a journey by ship to a distant island, and my bard character had just purchased some bagpipes
Sailor: “Well I won’t say no to you buyin a ship! I can get you one with a whole loyal and fast crew for round oh…600 gold.”
Bard OOC: is that overpriced?
GM OOC: idk i think it seems reasonable
Bard: Do you, perhaps, give a discount for … entertainers?
Bard reaches for the fucking bagpipes again
Sailor: “Entertainers?”
Monk: They’d increase the fee.
GM OOC: roll performance
Bard: 7 PERFORMANCE (5)
Bard OOC: shit, i think [monk] may be correct
GM: Although [bard] is rather decent on bagpipes, they are still bagpipes.
Wizard: Why didn’t you go with the lute?
Bard: ah shit. mayhaps you’d prefer the lute?
GM: The sailor looks at you, at first expectantly, then slowly more disappointed
Sailor: “I’ll drop it to 575 if you don’t play again”
my friend is studying for the mcat and was just trying to explain to me about heat transfer and she said ‘you know, like the reason you get cold when you go outside on a freezing day is that your tiny human body is trying to warm up the entire universe’ and i think that’s the best thing i have ever heard
