~Epic Description [Patent] Pending~
Yeah, I know the thread looks like sheez, but I'm falling asleep on the keyboard. At least I've finally started the thread, right? The first step is the hardest; I can always fix it later.

To my Epic Fail Quest Thread.
It has taken me quite a long time to decided whether or not to even bother making the effort to make this thread. The main deciding factor in the sudden appearance of my new QQT was the epic and ground breaking even of naming my QQT. And as anyone knows, once you name, you have to keep it. So, here is my sad little QQ-thread. Yay. *celebration*
Much thanks to the Boyfriend for giving me a name that I had no doubts in my mind about. <3<3

Considering how old these items are, it is understandable why there are never any in the MP. But that also makes it that much harder to guestimate a price I should be aiming for. The first time I looked them up, prices ranged about 4-5Bill a piece, equalling 14 Billion plus gold. Yeah, you read that right. Here it is again, just to show you exactly how many zeros that is: 14,000,000,000 gold. Yeah. Shoulda just killed myself instead.
That has changed, however, and a month later, the total price is around 5 billion. So, the fact that there is nothing to base prices on has worked in my favor, for once in my life.
But this is only a month into my quest and my gold count is currently around 1/10,000th of the way. xDD And going at that rate, it should only take me 834 years to complete this bracket of my quest. =D Hoorah!

((Still WiP))

So, here is the namesake of my never ending quest. All the donation/monthly collectible letters of Gaia from the very beginning. Some are harder to obtain than others, some I already have. I'll be starting with oldest (because they'll be harder and more expensive to acquire) and work my way up to the newer ones.


I am collecting THREE (four in special cases) of each letter:
One of each item from within the letter, and one unopened letter.
Above each letter is a code detailing which items I still need.
An X means that I have them all, and I don't need any more.
An a means the letter itself.
A b means the first item beneath the letter.
A c is for the second item beneath the letter.
And d is for the third item, if applicable.
Finally, Q is for the set that I am currently questing.

.VI. Contesticles .VI.

Currently, I'm not running any contests. I am thinking about starting a quiz. An actual quiz. Like, with real questions that have real answers, not opinion questions. I am debating on how to reward that, though. With, like, giving points per correct answer and then prizes at certain points. Unfortunately, I don't know what I would give as prizes, because when questing 5 Billion plus gold, every tiny gold counts. So. . . maybe I'll offer my bumping services, considering I am a pretty obsessive bumper. . . Or maybe I'll offer my petty arts. . . or maybe I'll come up with something else. If you guys have any ideas, lemme know!!

.XIII. Quizzical Questions .XIII.

When I get around to deciding how to reward people for answering the quiz, I'mma post the questions. Just so you know, you people who like those so-called "quizzes" posted around Gaia, this isn't going to be your typical quiz. It's going to be an actual quiz, with real questions that have real answers. Not an opinionated questionaire, which is what you normally find around Gaia, labeled as a "quiz."

Anyway, I haven't decided how to reward quiz answerers. One option was that each correct answer would be worth one point. Points would be redeemable for prizes. Question is, what do I offer as prizes? My art? My crappy banners? Bumping services? I'd really rather not offer gold, considering that saving for 5 billion plus is going to be hard enough without giving bunches of it away to people. . .

So, if you want to see a quiz posted here, help me come up with some options for prizes! I am open to ideas, but I reserve the right to refuse the ideas I don't like.
