Oh and yeah, I can probably get you about a quarter of the way there (like 50k) though without robbing the Ting bank. :mrgreen:
Well, I don't want Hoodoo killing you so it's alright if you can't join this year, but I'd still like to see how far you can make it! :oops2: It's up to you if you would like to do that, but that seems too generous! I don't want to pressure you :hap: I am sincerely just happy that you would offer in the first place

I will definitely participate in the event for a bit, but I won't be doing an all nighter. I will show up here and there. I will take the Tings from my other account, I don't need more than 90k anyway I just like my Globox rank. :P

Steooooo :cry: I know you say it's nothing but this has made me very emotional... thank you so much! When I get to the Ly rank I will really cherish it and will remember you helping me to get there!

No problem at all, you're welcome. Good luck with reaching that milestone. The Record Day event will definitely help you out with the bonuses. :wink:

Yes!! I'll try my best to talk as much as I can. You'll have to sew my mouth shut by the end of itb :lol: Good luck to you too! But since you're already at the globox rank I think the tings might just be a nice little bonus :P

Yeah I guess maybe if I ever decide I want a rank that requires more, it's nice to have extra Tings. For now I'm happy with the Globox one, so enjoy being the magician. :P

- The weather is terrible here, rain and thunderstorms.

Y’knows, I’d rather have your weather pattern than having an endless stream of heat dome days where I’m constantly being sent excessive heat warnings! :oops2:

- People have been telling me I look more burned these days.

Hehe. Well I could help you a little bit towards it still, but I unfortunately don't want the Ting police after my by stealing 200k tings (Rayman dollars). :lol:

Oh and for what it's worth, even just posting a few messages on Record Day will get you a lot. I think just literally submitting one message already earns you 1515 Tings if I'm not mistaken, and you get 15 per post instead of 5 for the duration. :wink:

There is an all-nigher bonus, but honestly I am never doing that again. :oops2:
Oh my gosh I feel like I was born to pull an all-nighter for this. I love to pull them when I need to fix my sleeping schedule, and I just so happen to have royally messed mine up! :lol: I wouldn't want to get you in trouble with the ting police though, so don't worry about it, Steo! It was a very kind offer
I did it a few times too, and man it was exhausting. It’s funny though, since I originally wasn’t planning to do it this year but since my sleep schedule is going out of sync again I’m thinking I might try again.

That's right! But I should point out that as you post you still just get 5 Tings, the rest are handed out later in a big bonus payment! :D
Noooo I was so excited for that part :ouin: :ouin: :ouin:

Alright, Jonster! You better join me for it, then. At least I won’t be alone, and the sleep afterwards will be soooo nice :mrgreen:

± Looks like I left a week's worth of unread posts build up in the Rayman forum, so at least I can reply to all those :confus:

I say that and yet I double posted already. :oops2:

I hope you enjoy the time you have with family back in Ireland! :D
Btw I meant to ask you about a previous quote, but were you going in for your annual check up when you talked about your blood work?

Thanks! It was to do with me going for a checkup for stomach related issues, and since my nails look weird, the doctor wanted me to get tests. They came back normal, but the doctor was saying he thought I might have koilonychia (spoon nails).

Plus: I had a wisdom tooth extraction. It was a bit of a bothersome tooth since it was kinda buckled & jutting out awkwardly and probably shouldn't have been there, but I wanted to see if it could be properly maintained, but alas it got a cavity even if I was taking extra care of it. Either way, it's gone now & I'm healing up nicely. Also I couldn't think of anything to watch before the extraction, so I pulled up a walkthrough of the SNES Starfox. The assistant & the dentist thought it was super cool which was nice to hear.

I finally got to eat a mini pizza today & a ding-dong brownie cake thing, carefully of course.

Minus: I had a wisdom tooth extraction. For a day or two I couldn't really eat or drink. I can't use my water flosser or mouthwash, and I can't wear my night guard either. So I have to shove a wad of tissue in my face as makeshift gauze and to prevent grinding my teeth in my sleep.

I ruined the first mini cheese pizza because I misunderstood the instructions my brother gave me, and I put the paper towel on top of the pizza. I wasn't really awake since I woke up really really late. Rip pizza. Thankfully there was one last mini cheese pizza in the freezer.

Oh wow, only a day or two? I remember when I got my wisdom tooth removed I couldn't eat or drink normally for a full week.

Ok that condition is a new one for me. I have never heard of spoon nails.
