From Cities
I'm around. I'm back from my most recent studies, but I've got more to do. In bigger news I'm going into the actuarial contracting market, so I'll be in different places around the UK (though still based in York). What this will do to my Cities gaming time is dependent on whether I find accommodation with an internet connection...
Sometimes I grow rather more hair than is normal (20:11 to 22:10). Awoooo!
A happy member of the Order of the Club.
If you'd like infinite Kipple, a Golem for the Military Service quest, or a Toy Unicorn for your personal pleasure, do ask me. I provide them free of charge. :-) I also have a complete book bag if you would like to borrow it.

Highlights
Glorious victory: Best cities pick-up line
Much to my pleasure, I won gruther4's competition! Yay! Particular thanks to gruther4 for creating this opportunity and for granting me the first prize. I bow to you most graciously. :-)
Successful Organisation: Knitting Circle
I organised two successful knitting circles at Free Parties. The first was held at the Monsters' Ball with five participants, and the second at the Hammered Anvil Fest with six participants. Everyone ended up with a set of woollies for a fraction of the individual AP costs.
Alternate Character: Calm Breeze
I created a secondary character (who naturally has nothing to do with Stelio) as an interesting opportunity for roleplay, and to answer the question, "How far can a character advance without attacking anything?" Check out his journal to see how he successfully reached Knighthood without a single kill.
Development: Mixology Shopping List
I chucked together a spreadsheet that you can copy your inventory into and it will tell you what items you still need to complete the Mixology quest (and where to get those items from). The little bit of feedback I've had so far has been positive. :-D

Monsters leagues that I've topped at some point

A respectable collection of varied beasties, especially considering that I've never gone out and tried to be the top of the Monster Bashing Leagues. It's just happened as a consequence of my actions at the time.
