Been grinding in WoW and hit 85 with the lock. Then started grinding out BG's like crazy to get the PVP gear. Too bad I missed the Tol Barad bug which would've given me thousands of honor easily. I've been doing Archeology in WoW and it's kind of relaxing, just like picking herbs would be. I haven't even tried the Demonology Spec yet and am looking forward to trying it out. I don't want to get used to it before it gets nerfed so I may just try it out for a bit. I downloaded the PTR and made a DK, Warrior, Rogue, and Shaman to try to better understand the classes. I haven't played on any of them much at all but am going to try this weekend before the PTR goes away because the new patch is probably launching next week.
Haven't played Eve since I hit 8.0 with Theological Council. I installed one jump clone and was planning on installing the others but just haven't done it yet. I want to go into Low Sec and play around there with the recon ship and I might also mine if I get bored. Possibly fit out a Punisher for PVP and lose a few ships, trying to learn how to PvP. I can probably mine on the laptop while I play WoW on the Desktop if I want to try to make some extra ISK. They offered the extension for players that had taken advantage of the return to Eve promotion and I didn't receive it and the promotion and had to petition the GM. After a back and forth conversation, I was able to get ten extra days out of it, something I was very happy about as I originally found out about the promotion through a forum post and the person that started the thread got an extra 14 days. The last few days I've been working on:
Engineering 5
Drones 5
Scout Drone Operation (1 day left)
Haven't quite decided what I'm going to skill after this. I might go for the Drone Interfacing but I don't know if I'll use it in the short run. I might just go for the essentials like Hull Upgrades, Mechanic, Repair Systems but I'll probably queue up the long training time of Medium Energy Turrets 5 which takes about 9 days.

Just hit 8.0 with Tribunal Council!! Been grinding missions like crazy and to be honest I was getting tired of it. I guess I could've payed to get into a corporation but it was interesting to work my way up from level 2 to level 3 missions. Luckily I received that 10 part Storyline mission and the last part of it bumped my rating by 16 percent, not to mention giving a million isk bonus and a 10 million implant. I learned some things while doing these missions and got fairly decent money. Lost a spaceship because I was getting warp disrupted and only had shitty drones. The annoying part was that I had a light gun fitted on the ship but mistakenly transfered the ammo into the station when I was emptying my cargohold. Going to take all my loot and salvage and take a trip to Amarr to get rid of it. I was at about 160 million isk then lost the spaceship so I had to replace the contents which brought me down about 20 million after getting insurance back. The next few days are going to be used for exploring or maybe finally joining a corporation.

Checking in
Last time I checked in, I was having trouble with a few of the Level 3 Missions. With my shitty skills, some of these are definitely difficult. I finally finished training all the skill necessary for Covert Ops the junk and I don't know if it was really worth it in the long run. The almost three week training time for Frigate 5, Electronics Upgrades 5, and Cloaking 4 has been ridiculous. However, all training times are ridiculous at this point. It's going to take me another month to train up the essentials. My plan so far is:
Engineering 5
Mechanic 5
Hull Upgrades 5
Repair Systems 5
After these, it's rime to get the gun skills up with Small and Medium Energy Turrets so I can start using Type 2 weapons. After that, it's the beginning Drone skills so I can use the tier 2 drones. We're looking at almost 2 months of training time here for essential skills but I guess all training is similar at this point.
So I'm still having some trouble with some Level 3 missions and I have to work the fit of Harbinger. Better cap Skills are essential but I also need to pick up a few rigs. The mission I mentioned last time I finally finished after hours and I was rewarded with a named Missile Launcher worth 12 million. Not bad. Bought my Anathema and have played around with it a bit but haven't gone into Low Sec yet. The thing really zips around at more than 2k a second. I'm still grinding up my Standings and I'm going to wait until I have Jump Clones before I start doing other silly things. My current standing is around 6.5 so another week or so of grinding out these missions and I'll be ready to go.

So I had trouble with that level 3 mission and then decided to make sure I would check up before accepting another mission. I accepted one after checking on it, then noticed the fucking information was wrong after having trouble with it. Now I have to make sure to double or triple check before I accept another one. I've been trying to finish this mission for hours.
