Oh.. so many things to say today.. first, I’ve been waiting to post when we were back on green alert.. we’ve been on yellow alert, then orange and to be honest, I didn’t want to risk being on this forum and getting a virus of some sort.. Anyway, glad to be back!  Secondly, Happy New Year to everyone!!!  Hope your holidays have been well and your celebrations are safe and spent with the ones you love. 
Third.. oh third.. I’m on page 3 of my topic/blog!  Wootwoot!!! I get so excited hahaha.. but I wasn’t sure really how many pages I’d get to or who would read and follow my journey.. so thank you for keeping me company!  And last.. the reason for my whole topic/blog.. I’ve ranked up and I’m rank 5 now.. yay!!!  So…

RANKING UP:
I am at Rank 5 now!  Woohoo!!!  But I would like to say that I couldn’t have gotten here without A LOT of help from everyone on this forum.  I received half ot the items that I needed from friends that sent me items, or from click trades.. and ofcourse getting those 500 clicks on my dinosaur excavation module.  As you all know, this is the first rank that you rely on others for this many clicks, and I wasn’t sure how long it would take me.  I think the hardest part would have been getting the gems, since these are given out randomly to friends; but I was fortunate enough to have Wilson become a new friend and send them all to me.. Thanks! 

So I’m Rank 5 now and I keep hearing how long this rank takes.  I’ve enjoyed reading how long it’s taken everyone to pass the different rank levels.. .So far it’s taken me about a month each for each rank.  I try to harvest atleast every other day, and usually do the majority of things on weekends.  So I’ve learned to prepare ahead of time, and accept any offers coming my way.  This holiday season was great as many members were giving out free items for the holiday spirit… Wertquuu gave out free rank packs for Christmas and I was able to get one for Rank 5 and Rank 6!  Also, as I’ve mentioned I won the Lucky Dip contest from TBD so I was able to get a couple of items for Rank 5 from that as well..   I’m hoping to pass Rank 5 in a month as well.. let’s see.. hehehehe

I actually already have 200 nails for Rank 5 because of the free rank pack… I consider myself very lucky that I do not have to grow nails as I’ve read they only grow once a day!  So that saves me atleast a couple of weeks.  For now, I’ve decided not to make any nail modules since I don’t need any nails, and I will try to get my pipes and gypsum from click trades.   What do you think about this?

I started growing orange lego bricks since Rank 4 thanks to the POS gated module.  Thanks for the tip as I see this as a very smart move.  As I was able to get the Form 20Bs right away.  I’ve made the modules for the Foundation,  the Electrical System, the Plumbing System and the Roof.  Seeing that we need 100 clicks on each module, I’ll put up one module at a time until I get 100 clicks on it and then replace it with the next one.  I am using my other slots to continue growing the different bricks (orange, purple, green, and red and yellows).


QUICK UPDATE:[/u]
I am Rank 5 now.  Please click on my top module if you have extra clicks.. I'd really appreciate it.  I will put up the modules for the Foundation,  the Electrical System, the Plumbing System and the Roof one at a time until they get 100 clicks and then replace it with the next one. 


QUESTION OF THE DAY:
What is the best way to gypsum and pipes?


Thanks to everyone for following along and Have a great and safe New Year!  Please leave comments and suggestions and let me know how you are doing. 
Until next year!     Happy 2010!

Congratulations, Ninjachucks!!
When I was rank 5 we did click /click groups.. (NOT block click) We traded clicks on materials modules and if someone in the group was not rank 5 they sent the items back. Flash had a very successful click click group as well.

NC: You can't get a virus from here unless it's the ads causing it, I think.

Hey buddy congrats, MsRR has the best way, I've always returned what landed in my lap. Gave you 50 on your Sparky apprentice gallery, sweet page eh.

Sent some gypsum and pipes, 3 and 2

Also, check out the Union Mall for some really good deals

Congratulations ninja!

I'll send some pipes and gypsum along to you, and a few loose sparks if you'd like them. Pipes and gypsum... you just need to click the Pet Golems and Water Bugs of people who are your friends. I'll set some up for you.

'Grats Ninja!

The best way would definitely be click/click deals. (Block/click deals work, but are not the best option since you are blocking friends.)

I'm not sure, but there might be a few available groups on the LMBs if you need clicks, items, and the such.

JANUARY 5, 2010 TUESDAY Elventh Post

Happy New Year everyone!!!


COMMENTS TO PREVIOUS COMMENTS:
Blade.. thanks for letting me know about the virus thing.. just wanted to be cautious 
TBD, LegoDac.. how have you guys been?   Thanks for the items guys…  I’ve tried to return the favor by clicking on your pages. 
Thanks to MRR, Paradox, Flash for consistently following me and all of the great advise.

RANKING UP:
So Rank 5.. yes, I’ve been advised to sit patiently  0:)
It’s actually a nice time right now to just let my bricks grow.. okay.. gotta think half full cup kinda stuff. 

I’ll be clicking on pet golems and water bugs the next few weeks.. gotta grow the gypsum and pipes.. but I’ll also check out the union mall when I get a chance for some cool deals.

I’m still collecting clicks on my apprentice gallery modules as well if anyone has any extra clicks.   

I’ve also started back to the daily grind of real life.. winter break is over, and the new school semester has started.. It looks like this semester is going to be hard and the first midterm is just around the corner.. so I may not be on here as often as I’d like.. which being in Rank 5 seems to fit my life right now.. patience.. I’ll get to Rank 6 and pass this class soon!   


QUESTION OF THE DAY:

1.  What is the difference between click/click groups and block/click groups?
2.  On the flipside of things.. real life kinda stuff?  How did you spend your New Year’s Eve?  Looking back, how different was it from New Year’s of 2000? Wow.. ten years have passed!!!
For 2010, I had a huge family get together and ate lots of food, sang karaoke, and did the countdown while the tv was set on Ryan Seacrest and Dick Clark!  In 2000.. same except without Ryan Seacrest!  hahaha


Thanks to everyone for following along.. Please keep comments/suggestions/advice coming!  Until next time....

1. Block click groups are where you and the other person block everyone except each other and click on the modules. This is theoried to be the cause of the shortage of building materials. Click click groups are where you and the other people just click each other's modules, which causes it to be sent out randomly, but helps circulate build materials to those stuck in Rank 5.
2. It was pretty good.

On another note, if you want, I could likely befriend you. =)

1: I do believe Blade covered that well.

2: Good; had a great youth group event. Thanks for asking
