Pinball

Pinball entered his shop the next day. Wasting no words, and no time, Pinball got straight down into the crafting. His first item ended up being a rare! "Nice," he said, before getting right back into his next attempts. Pinball's next two items were both Uncommon. "Wow," he said, taking a step back. None of them were quite up to standards, but so many good items in one day of crafting was impressive. Especially for him, a Rank Two Cook. "Well," Pinball said, walking out of his shop. "That was pretty cool." Pinball closed the door behind him. He decided he would take a break from crafting, and

Pinball entered his shop the next morning, eager to get back into crafting. He had missed a day, and he knew that that put him behind in terms of crafting. However, he vowed that he would try his best to make up for lost time, and try to become the most relevant Cook in the game. But his crafts would beg to differ. One after the other, both items failed, shattering into pieces in front of his eyes. "Ain't that something," he muttered, slapping the counter in frustration. "Guess it can't be helped." And so Pinball left the shop, in a more fowl mood then he had been in when he entered. But, the

Pinball wanted to craft Stryder's item. He wanted to do it bad. It wasn't the act of crafting itself that cut off his interest, it was more the monotonous grind that it took to actually craft something. He was running low on materials now, and if he didn't craft Stryder's items very soon, he would be forced to go and gather more materials. And his past gathering attempts were all so very boring. By all rights, he should be grateful that gathering materials was all he was worrying about, but the narcissism so heavily embedded in people his age prevented that. Both of his crafting attempts ended

Another day of crafting, and Pinball was looking forward to getting an order crafted. Right off the bat, his first attempt ended In absolute failure. The item shattered into pieces, without any chance of recovery for his materials. The second item ended up the same as the first, a failure. Both attempts of crafting had failed, both leaving no chance for any material recovery. He shrugged, shaking off the feeling of failure. He would get better eventually, he would just need more practice. With a sigh, Pinball finished his day of crafting. It wasn't as successful as he hoped, but there was alwa

Pinball entered his shop the next evening. He had a good feeling about today. He got straight into cooking, and was pleasantly surprised with the day's yield. His first craft failed, and when he tried to recover the material he had put into it, he failed, the material shattering into a million pieces. His second attempt, however, ended up being his very first success! The smell of Garlic Bread filled the shop, announcing Pinball's very first item crafted. It was only a Rare item, so it wouldn't be fitting Stryder's order, but it was a success, and that meant Pinball was getting better. Or tha

Pinball entered his shop, a bit more moodily than the last time. He had failed yesterday, but he wouldn't let that stop him. No, Stryder had placed an order, one of the Guild Leaders themselves. Desperate to prove himself, he went right into the cooking. Sadly, the results ended up much like yesterday's. He wrecked the first, but was able to salvage the materials, but the second crafting attempt utterly failed. With a grunt, he put his cooking utensils aside, and went over to stand by the front desk. Today was a wreck as well. However, he knew he was only a beginner, and that it was going to b

Another day, another dollar. Pinball started his morning by swinging open the door to his shop and getting straight to cooking. Cooking was a pleasant enough hobby, even though he seemed to be failing quite a bit. Pinball smiled, and started cooking. His first attempt was very close to success, but he must have been a bit off with the timing, because the item failed to craft. However, he managed to salvage the material he had put in it, so it wasn't too bad of a loss. His second attempt was a salvage item as well, but this time, he wasn't able to recover the material. With a sigh, Pinball put

Pinball had been putting the finishing touches to his shop, putting a little notecard with his name on it on the counter, putting out flowers and such. Stryder walked in, not saying a word, shrugged, and filled out an order form. "Oh- I," he stuttered, recieving the Order Form. He had literally just opened, why the h*ll was he getting customers so soon? Regardless, he was Pinball's superior, so there was really no denying him anything. Without a backwards glance, Stryder left the shop, and Pinball could see the man outside, waiting. Probably if he's getting his order now or later. But, I'm jus

<<THE ARCADE>> ~Rank Seven: High Mentor Cook~ The Arcade is a player-ran shop, owned by one under the username of Pinball. The shop's style is that of a plain, stone and wood cottage, though, despite appearences, it sports quite the large kitchen. The shop is built in a large, circular clearing, which sharply contrasts with the dense forest of Floor 8. In the center of the clearing is a large, presumably old tree that complements the shop nicely. Outside, behind the building, are wooden benches, put out for any Players who feel like taking a break. Plus,

Evaluations n' stuff. I don't know. Will be posting everything after this, just getting established~

In my opinion, a wipe with the release of a new, better system, might be best. It fixes most problems with the site, mechanics and otherwise, although it's more than a bit unfair to all the people who invested so much time into building their characters.
