One feeds the other

I'd dug up and replanted a magic tree in what I feel is my woodcutting haunt: the gnome stronghold. I like having a magic tree all to myself and the gnomes were nice enough to put the tree patch next to another magic tree. It makes for good cutting because one is public and the other is private. When they both are down to stumps, I rush over and chop on a yew tree. I finally got 92 woodcutting at the Catherby yews which was crowded. There was some dude there who kept asking people their woodcutting levels. That's alright if you've just shown up or someone new has, but continually asking the same people (or person) when they (or she) told you less than a minute ago just screams AUTOER. By the time I thought to report him, he'd logged off.

2,689 magic logs to 93
26,044 magic logs to 99

Woodcutting isn't a favorite skill, but it's a time killer (like fishing) when I'm doing some farming. I don't feel right logging in, planting, logging off and logging back in 6 hours later. Oh, if I've got things IRL to do, but just for the hell of it? No way.



My magic tree growed up on me! :D Since I'm yakking about farming anyway, might as well talk about the updates for it. I tried out Vinesweeper and think I'll enjoy it. I don't know what I'll use the points for yet, but there are some expensive seeds available and that sweet super compost potion. If you've played Minesweeper on your computer, the game is the same with slight differences. You can check each hole to see if there's a seed and I do that. Hey, might as well use the opportunity. Watch out for any rabbits near you when you're ready to plant a flag to mark a seed. Make sure a farmer is close by or no rabbits are or the seed gets eaten. :P

Yesterday while I was cutting magics, I kept getting this annoying random-type event: the farming spirit. Here's one of the messages it sent me:



I got 3 different ones, but I can only remember: You don't have to stand near your crops for them to grow. They will grow even if you are offline. I'm saying to the monitor, "Yeah dude, I know. I'm woodcutting here, mkai?"

I do like the teleport option for the nature amulet. I've got mine on the calquat patch usually and it's a pain in the ass to find a quick teleport near there. I think the closest is the house tele if your house is at Brimhaven.
