Apparently occurring on April 1st, wonder what to expect? >_>

Oh and yeah, I kinda wanted to level up some more but then I started playing Jade Cocoon 2 again. Maybe a level up this week, maybe.

Osht, those 2x EXP cards work wonders!

Met my quota for the week I guess, had to splooge on some NX (10k) to make it happen though.

Oh noes, I’m not a 2x EXP Card virgin anymore! /slits 

The rest after the jump.

That’s right freaking Nependeth Honey popped out from the Nependeths I was killing to increase spawn of Green Egg Poppy thingamajigs. My mind was pretty much blown when I saw it. =O

Patch notes after the jump.

- The MapleStory Staff -

Hopefully I can keep up with these weekly level ups until I reach 90!

Granted, they aren’t the best, but it’s the thought that counts right?

Oh and my inventory really isn’t that empty, if you know what I mean. =P

Thus continues my slow grind to 90. Oh and hey, I’m at Squids! =P

(You’ll have to click the entry to see the picture I guess) 

Anyways, WIP.
