As for me and Silver, it is becuase they know the story of last month. I won't bore you with it unless you ask. *asks*
I have all day to screw around on Gaia, so tell me a story!
xd
But I must brb for about 10-15 min, so expect a reply from me in a few pages, or just don't feel rushed on posting the story for little ol' me.

Gah! I spelled because wrong gonk Oh well... The boring story... Okay...
Basically I jumped into competitive fishing with bait degredation knowledge and about 15k whee I had a Distance Plus Rod and fished maybe 5 times a day for the first two weeks, filtering junk and guppies. Then, the last two weeks, I learned what I could really do, and started making 6k+ a day hardcore filtering at 20+ min a bucket. Over and Anjelous were "terrorizing" every lake that month, and scores were outrageously high, but I made it into the Top 10, even as high as 8th. Then the night before the 28th I discovered a faster pace, and worked my way into the Top 10 from which I had been kicked out recently. But on the last day of fishing I couldn't fish more than an hour. All I needed was maybe 3 hours and I would have made it. All the Top Fishers knew about me, as I spent time in the other thread that we frequented before this one. But on top of that, Vicious Jello, the 10th place winner last month, had had his brother fish for him by about the score I missed out on the Top 10. Thus creating quite the drama situation, and I have become well known amongst fishers because of it apparently xd There is the boring story...
Crimson - I need to decorate my house too, if you have seen it you know why xp Wow, that's not a boring story!! It's like a Gaian action movie! With March being the sequel movie with a happy ending! Bumping you off the t10 at the last minute sure was an a*****e thing to do, but now you don't really need to worry about it because you'll have a silver now! That would have been *impossible* last month for you.
And I like the story becuase it actually sounds a little bit like my story this month in regards to the new discoveries in the early parts of the month. It goes like this.
With the knowlege that Housing was on its way, I spent the first week of the month fishing for the rest of my fish hats. At the time I only had the small fish caps, and a Bluestone Biter Helm. So I started fishing all 3 lakes to get my remaining hats.

At the end of the 1st week, the overall scoring was still extremely glitched, but I noticed that my own score (even though it was fluctuating violently from 2k to 700k points without even saving a new bucket) I could tell that I was on a pace for top 10 overall.
When the scoring was fixed, I was still not in the charts, so my new task at hand was to figure out why. I hadn't been keeping track of which lakes I fished more, but i figured it had to be the fact that I didnt have 1/4 from bassken and gambino, so I alternated at those two lakes for a while not doing a lot of filtering, and eventually I popped up at like 8th place when my Gambino fish total hit the 1/4 mark. At that point I kept fishing at Gambino until I had equal Gambino and Bass'ken fish.
I was still top 10, so I had the luxury of filtering at Durem for 25 or so buckets (equal to ~1k points per bucket, but I spent a LOT of time in the marketplace and didn't fish more than 3 or 4 buckets a day for about the last week and a half.
...Yet I'm still in the top 10
xp
I have had practically the entire month off work, because I have the luxury of taking the winter months off because I make my money during the summer.
Anyway, I could have spent the month fishing hardcore at any of the lakes and gotten myself at least a bronze, but the marketplace has been VERY VERY KIND to me in the month of March. I have probably made at least 500k this month vending... And staying in the overall top 10 I have kept in the back of my mind all month the fact that with the new scoring changes COULD POSSIBLY mean that overall trophys will be awarded since now the top10 at Durem won't be the top10 overall. *keeps fingers crossed*
If I am not awarded a overall bronze, I will only be mildly disappointed though, because I have made a lot of gold in the meantime, as well as added quite a few fish hats to my inventory, and last but not least, I have a few new people to talk to on Gaia.
