Lost (WoC Update!)

I have always been...late in the game...you could say. So my family just got into the TV series Lost a few weeks ago, and we are already on disk 3 of season 3. No giving things away! But I just thought this was blog-worthy.

On a different note, I have been playing War of Conquest a lot lately. If you are late to the game like I am, War of Conquest is a game, somewhat similar to Risk. It's not set on Earth though. You make your own nation (or join someone else's nation), which starts out as a stone-age culture and go on to be a very developed and civilized one. Even though the game is free, you can earn real money by capturing an in-game item called an orb.

Now, while the game itself is free, you do have the option to buy "credits" for money. Credits allow you to buy some extra stuff, but aren't required to have fun in the game. When someone buys credits, most of the money spent is distributed to all the orbs in the game, which can then be claimed by whoever has control over that specific orb or orbs.

There are four types of orbs, the most common being an "Orb of Noontide". These orbs get the least amount of winnings, but it balances out because they are so common. The next most common is an "Orb of Shadow". The second rarest are the "Orbs of Destiny", and the rarest of them all is the most well paying one in the entire game. There is only one in the entire world.

It is the "Orb of Fire". It's currently controlled by a country called "Invisible_Souls". But don't plan on capturing it from them any time soon. Each square surrounding it has 50 forts, and there is only one entrance to the secluded island on where it resides. They can have it.

Until next time,
Keep bein' slick
