Win a Fungi Tunic

[Glosk]

I just finished college while living with my dad and moved into my very own apartment. About 2 weeks, I interviewed with a local company that I had been working with over summers during college. It was a short interviewed and the conversation was mostly, welcome aboard and you start next week.

I celebrated with my friends that night and being too drunk, a "dedicated" driver drove me home. I attempted to open the front door and was locked and I had no idea where the keys were so walked over to the window, opened it and crawl inside and went to sleep.

The next morning, I awaken to my Dad standing over me on the bed asking me "Son, what are you doing here?" Hungover, I replied, how did you get into my apartment?

Man Vareous and Sheek brought this to the next level. Those 2 are good.

New player, loving the server so far [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] It's refreshing not to be instantly gratified! Decided I wanted to play a melee dps or hybrid tank, but have not settled on a class yet.

Anyways, embarrassment.. To segue in, when I was little I would get Alice in Wonderland syndrome whenever I was sick, embarrassed, or angry. Basically it's like zooming out in EQ with the mouse wheel and seeing the immediate surroundings in third person--still happens on occasion.

In third or fourth grade we were sitting around listening to the teacher read. Sitting cross-legged I felt the inevitable ass tickle and subsequent stomach drop of an epic fart waiting in the rafters. Hoping it would go away I just ignored it. Over the course of the next 5 minutes my stomach continued to tie itself in a knot as the fart inched its way down. As I attempted to raise my knee to reposition, out came the loudest (non-amplified) fart that I have ever heard. Instantly the Alice in Wonderland comes out and I am looking down at myself. I see my classmates recoil and instinctively move away from ground zero and hallucinated a giant black patch beneath me, slowly encroaching outwards. Naturally I attempted to blame the guy sitting next to me but he was already butt shuffling out of the way with an inscrutable look on his face. I try moving to the right, everyone to the right moves away from me. Try moving to the left, same result. After a minute or so of shuffling, the teacher looks up and asks what is going on. Inevitably, a handful of people point their fingers at me and relate that I had farted. I insisted that it didn't smell, so people shouldn't bothered by it.. but they were bothered, really bothered. The teacher finished the story as I sat alone in the middle of the area with the other kids ringed 5-6ft to my sides. This earned me a temporary nick-name of "farter" until another kid puked all over their desk and earned the most repulsed title.

Thinking about it now makes me laugh, but it was super embarrassing at the time..

Got turbo-drunk at a pal's wedding that I was standing up in. Eventually knew I had to throw up, so I gave my camera to another groomsman and asked him to take pics. Most of the males in the wedding party came with as we got some pretty amazing action shots. I then took the camera with the pics and showed the bride's mom and sister. I'm pretty great.

Also, I took pictures of my balls with the disposable cameras on the tables. No, I was not 15 at the time. I'm also disqualified from this competition, and for some reason shared anyway.

Hello!
Don’t let my join date fool you, highest I have on p99 blue is a 12 shaman. I have a 32 shaman on Red that ive given up on; and now commited to Blue. Shammy (like most classes) is pretty painful low-level with no equipment; but once I break the dreaded push to 24 and then 34; itll all be downhill (IMO). I mained a cleric on live kunark-LDoN-ish era; and always wanted to level a shaman to max. Found p99 a while ago, made my troll shaman, and got that OOOoooOOO nostalgia feeling when I finally made it to the tunnel, but ultimately never really got started. Got married last year and had been pretty busy IRL up until now; so in lieu of Velious being released (my favorite era) im picking the torch back up this week; and ive also convinced my best work buddy to give p99 a try. He’s currently borrowing my old CD’s. Currently trying to convince my brother to quit WoW and dig up his ole CD’s for a heavy dose of nostalgia with me.

Id love to win your contest, since a Fungi would equate to a lot of efficiency for my chosen class of course… but I realize this might be a lot to read, and the entries are quite numerous already. All the same, its Clearly worth a try! Fungi would help me grind up to that 24/34 range easily and thereafter, where Shaman starts to shine on its own… In the Spirit of classic EQ; I vow that if I win the Fungi, ill give it to another newbie once I grind 60 and torpor. Yea, that might take me awhile, but ill do it. I used to love stalking newbies on my old cleric; buff them up and give them a few off-hand plat and items to kick start them. Id do the same with the fungi. Personally, I probably wouldn’t play Forumquest to select my newbie. Id stalk him, question him; gauge his honor as best I could! If I believed he would make good use of it (or at LEAST know How to make use of it?) id trade it, and run. but that’s just me. I appreciate the chance to do so Here, because I cant bring myself to full on ‘beg’… id rather feel like I was chosen, or somehow earned it. That being said, ive already seem some old fashion generosity! A helpful soul gave me a suit of banded armor and 50pp to buy my initial spells =)

In case you feel the same notion; my Shaman is Oipi. Youll probably see me weekdays 6-9ish PST timezone, random times on weekends, if you want to contact (or stalk 8P ) me in-game.

My entry:

I was 16 years old, it was a Saturday. Parents leave to go to some barbeque day party thing; I stay home because I was scheming to invite the girl over from down the street that I was infatuated with. She tells me that she has to wait an hour or so for her mom to leave before she can sneak out and walk to my place. Half an hour goes by, and my excited and dumb 16 year-old brain decides to masturbate…. So, im sitting in front of the living room PC looking up porn pics (wasn’t all about videos back then..) with sword in hand; and the damn doorbell rings. I wasn’t paying attention to the time, its HER. I panic and clean up as quickly as I can… Answer the door with my heart beating out of my chest…. I did my best to play it cool, which probably wasn’t very cool at all….

The PC was still on, but the ole reliable Windows screensaver had taken effect. Maybe 10min goes by, and I accidentally bump the desk; which moved that old stupid roller mouse, which in turn dropped the screen saver; which then showed off the window I forgot to Minimize…. My heart SANK, right down into my bowels…. She Froze at first, with her jaw on the floor… after that awkward 5sec Pause which felt like 30min, she BURST into laughter, and immediately started getting ready to leave… of course, I did my best to explain myself, which was a whole bunch of incomplete sentences…. I got the whole “uhhhh. Yea. Bye.” On her way out the door, and proceeded to be MORTIFIED for the remainder of the weekend….

To make matter WORSE, I played hooky Monday. Convinced mom I was sick, which I wasn’t; because I didn’t want to face the music. Big mistake. High school boys smell B.S. from a mile away if its one of their own; and that Night I had all my friends calling my house phone with a W.T.F. Happened attitude…. She told EVERYBODY. Apparently, it was a big ordeal at school; and all of my friends instantly knew I ditched to Hide my face, which in their minds confirmed it…. It MUST be true… Well, because my friends blew up our house phone so much Monday night (this was before cell phones took over Everything) my mom caught wind that something was up, and Questioned my fake sickness…

Being mortified, I didn’t want to tell my mom that I got caught looking at porn by the girl I ‘liked’ on the living room PC that I wasn’t supposed to be on; let alone have had anyone over the house. So, I did what every 16 year old would do… I Lied… I said it was over a fight with a kid at school and blah blah…. I lied a little too hard…. Because she then wanted to talk to the principal the following morning….

Unwilling to swallow my pride, and tell Mom the truth; she takes me to school the following morning, marches right into the principal’s office (me sitting outside) full of fervor… only for the Principal to tell her the REAL reason I stayed home the following day…. Apparently, it was such a big ‘event’ that even the school STAFF found out… My Mom was actually kinda cool about it all; and luckily didn’t make me re-hash the issue much; because she say the struggle I already put myself through because of it…..

I was henceforth the jerk off kid at school…. Those next few weeks were pretty bad… we all remember how bad high school could be…. Not too long after living through it I joined a band at least; which improved my Faction with the Ladies from the aforementioned Threatening to roughly Dubious … so I survived. But ultimately it was NEVER lived down… even mentioned In a few yearbook autographs…

Memories….. looking back, might be why I played a whole lot of EQ back then….. Hrmph… Retrospect. 8P

Back when I was 17, my friends decided to drag me go a party that was outdoors cause I was a gamer and never went outside. The biggest reason was because a girl that I really really liked was going to be there, well after a short while it took to gather the courage to go, I ended up there. She was at the bonfire and I could see her and I drank enough to get the courage to talk to her, nowhich after a few minutes her friend walks up with a blunt and starts lighting it up,as it went around then finally came to me (I have never smoked before :/ ) I took a hefty hit and couldn't stop coughing. Everyone laughed, I laughed, after about 10 min I got wayyyyyyyyy high. I ran up the mountain into the dark and jumped behind a bush, I thought she would follow and I would jump and somewhat scare her (say it work in a movie) well My friend came instead, when I jumped out and scared him he started to fall backwards well I grab his hand and he pulled me. We both fell down the mountain, well he ended up on top of me and I on the bottom. I hit my head so I didn't even think to get up quick, well everyone started laughing. I thought it was because he fell on me, nope apparently during the fall my pants ripped and that night I was wearing Garfield boxers. Yup, I didn't hear the end of that for the sooooooo many years. Was tough being a nerd back then.

Just started playing p99, love it! Lvl 9 shaman, named Shamanana 😊

Heh I've been dreaming for a fungi...

I turned down losing my virginity in high school to raid in EQ. Plain and simple. Also to this day, she is still smoking hot but has self confidence issues because I turned her down because of a game almost 17 years ago.

If I get fungi, a shaman will be born.

The first time I found out about the autorun key was on the boat, I had a level 11 paladin who had been gifted some lowbie stuff and I got man-handled by a cyclops. The amount of stress and rage I had felt was so intense that I remember it to this day. I just rerolled as a monk.

I stayed up for three days straight one time when I got stuck down in the bottom of Kurns at level 13 because I didn't know there was a way out and everything was red. I spent almost that entire time /who'ing and begging random strangers to release me from my hell, until someone (who became a long time friend after the fact) came and rescued my exhausted self.

I didn't understand what lava was in LS until it had killed me about 30 times.

I had my ability to have my surname removed on live after a disagreement with a GM about the naming policy and what qualified as a pop culture reference. To this day it's still in effect.

The first time I was in L-fay I had a high level SoW, though I got lost in the forest. I eventually had the pained unicorn as well as about a dozen horrible other things chasing me around until SoW faded and I died 2 feet from the zoneline via unicorn impalement. I was bound on Kunark. I was literally running around the woods, screaming to myself for over an hour because I was 14 and didn't know what to do.

On live, a GM once possessed a ghoul while I was in the Oasis of Marr and started stalking me and talking in rhymes while suggesting I help him make the everquest equivalent of N*SYNC. A level 45ish ogre came over, hit him once, and then was death touched. Then he handed me two rubies, an amethyst, and vanished.

Once I was pulled into the GM box after being falsely reported for training someone, after things got cleared up the GM kept me in the box with him for at least another half hour because I had asked him what it was like being a GM. It was actually pretty cool.

Real life: The first time I got drunk, I blacked out and woke up the next day with my dick in a sprinkler hole, with the sprinkler broken off next to me and mud all over myself. My boss/friend who I was drinking with told me I had been walking around naked while holding a towel all night, and stuck my head in the microwave and fell asleep like that for about two hours. He had no idea about the sprinkler thing and will never find out. I have a lot more drinking stories, and a lot of stories of insanely crazy stuff about drugs, but I don't want to clog this place up.

Thanks for sponsoring this, but it's been awesome just going through reading everyone else's stories. Some of you guys have done some whacky stuff.
