Did your player buy credits?

I figure my best skill is about Virtuoso. And that's damned good, actually, in my world. Apparently in my player's world, credits cost a lot more, because very few people buy credits. Most people I know would be lucky to pull a Virtuoso.

Leonardo da Vinci's player obviously bought a lot of credits; he was almost omni-trans. Benjamin Franklin's player probably bought a lot, too, as did Thomas Jefferson's. Those are the obvious ones, but history is dotted with others, not so well known, like Lt. Colonel William Ewart Fairbairn, a military and police officer of the British Empire stationed in Shanghai during the early 1900s, who is single-handedly responsible for a remarkable amount of modern police techniques ranging from close combat to forensic procedures.

You know whose player bought credits and not many people know it? Geena Davis. Sure, she's a good actress with a knack for appearing in bad movies; but how many people know she has a genius-level IQ, speaks like six languages fluently, excels in several sports (including almost qualifying for the Olympics in one), can paint and draw, can sing, can dance, can direct, can play piano, flute, and drums, has been a model, does almost all her own stunts, and she's also very very sexy? Okay, you probably knew the last one.

So, did your player buy any credits?

I bought 10 off the credit market and spent them on reflexes, but the ones I started with just about all went into Playing Computer Games And Lusternia. sleep.gif They're way too expensive for me to get anymore.

Singing, acting, two instruments, chess, mathematics, decently intelligent (140ish IQ (not quite a genius)).

I'm afk now, however.

I think I still owe God about 1500 credits. zap.gif

I've put a good number of lessons into Music, completely neglecting Art. I had to forget seduction in favor of the Romance skillset, coupled with the Girlfriend sub-skillset/skillchoice.

As for Combat, I've never bothered, because I don't PK much. Riding, I'm worthless, and the DDR skillset, well... I'm getting rusty. I'm shooting for a quick trans of Customer Service and Living on your Own, but I'm going to have to buy some more credits for that.

My player bought credits at one time, but refuses to buy anymore because of some 'morals' or something, dosen't want to turn into a credit w*ore. -shrug-

Most of the ones he bought, sadly, were put Into Touching Myself, and Complaining About Things. Tis a tragedy. I've actually had to forget Basic Motor Skills and Social Grace and take the lesson loss a while ago so that I could put more lessons into FrenchHorn/Mellophone Playing, which is still lacking -grumble- and Marching ability, which, consequently, isn't really a good idea.

Ah, but then, hindsight is always 20/20.

I'm Trans History.
Richter2005-03-22 21:54:37
You wish!
Silvanus2005-03-22 21:57:50
Fine. I'm Transcendent in Military History.

Fabled in History. I bought credits.

*snicker*
Falasin2005-03-22 22:10:47
Oh, I forgot to mention, I also have Mythical Making A Fool Out Of Thine Self. It's a new skillchoice that opened up to me when I forgot Social Grace.

There're two Rs in corresponding... tongue.gif
Falasin2005-03-22 22:36:38
Hey! I'll put as many r's in my signature as I want! Did you stop to think that maybe there was drought and the R crop came up short? I need to save all the r's I can! Look! Now you've gone and make me un out of them aleady! Ae you happy now? Ae you?

*cough*

What I mean to say is, it has been fixxxxxxxxed.

(Thar be a plethora of x's in my garage, Muahaha!)

I bought enough credits to trans my guild skills as a newbie. then I won 100 in bardic (I plan to do this again, some day, too busy right now) and bought 100 more the other day, because I wanted some gold.
Daganev2005-03-23 03:00:53
I'm capable in everything
Alger2005-03-23 03:27:08
i had a lot of credits once but after a few unfortunate incidents and a couple of takings i think i accidentaly forgot most of my skills.
Silvanus2005-03-23 03:29:17
I somehow think Singollo did not understand a thing about this thread...
Alger2005-03-23 03:34:46
i think his credit purchase was faulty and the credits didnt go through.

No, I just consider myself on par with Ben Franklin, Leonardo DaVinci, and Andy Kaufmann.
