MilkiEsports! Well that's pretty cool !

I'm 36 hundred pieces away from making the first relic I've ever completed in FFXI. I know currency and relics in general are highly devalued these days, especially with Empyreans, Aeonics, and Mythics usually trumping them in every category, but it still feels really cool!

Back in like 2007, I teamed up with a dude in the Air Force to farm together and make relics solely through gil acquisition. He got shipped off to the middle east at some point though, and then I lost momentum without him. As far as I got was to stage 3 on the relic great sword, which is actually still sitting there on my old main character that I don't feel like playing anymore(I guess it just doesn't feel like he belongs in that world anymore somehow).

It's weird, but I'm more into playing the character I've made for the LP recordings. I named him after an old friend who I've lost contact with who PL'd me in the course of several EXP parties back in like 2005/2006. He moved onto XIV eventually, but I never made it into his social circles because I didn't make it into 1.0. He was a really cool dude from Pennsylvania.
