Clare Watch

I am officially on Clare Watch.  This is Clare.

She's LEVEL 98!

She might make it to 100 before reset!  From here until reset, I will now officially be crossing my fingers for her.  All the time.  Boy is this hard to type.

  • Woah. How much xp does it even take to level up at that stage?

  • W0W!!! Well done,Claire!
    Fingers and toes crossed. =)

  • Good question. I've known about her, but I didn't know she had progressed so far. Go Clare!
    Does the Wiki hold the leveling info?

  • I would like to donate my all gems-n-blocks to this noble cause, and hold a party so that we can all be there to witness this remarkable achievement. Whattaya say, champ?! :D

  • a party is a good idea. i'm unsure what her strategy for leveling is, but surely buying a truckload of son-cones for her couldn't hurt.

  • Definitely worth a party if she accomplishes it.
    Posted 16 months ago by Fokian Fool Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Wow Clare!!!! Incredible!
    I will have to login and play some next test to watch you hit 100!

  • @Fokian Fool, the wiki only has info for going up to level 64, which apparently requires 137,796 xp points to advance. We could use the best fits from Wolfram Alpha to guess at how much she needs, I suppose, but maybe clare could enlighten us herself? (:

    Do we have a trophy for this achievement? It certainly deserves one.

  • Wooo clare! Indeed, a party and a fund raiser is in order.

  • I saw that level the other day and was amazed.  Go CLARE!!! I'm pulling for ya!

  • Can we raise 1,000,000 Currants?
    Posted 16 months ago by Fokian Fool Subscriber! | Permalink
  • A party with cake, and confetti, and balloons, and fireworks, and Claire should definitely get a keeper badge for being the first Level 100!

  • Awww! NN and y'all, you are SO SWEET!  Many <3 <3 <3's to you all.

    It takes 366,464 XP to level up to 99, of which I have 58,376 at this point.

    My strategy has never been a secret:
    1. I donate a lot. (Possibly, I donate more strategically than others? I tend to donate as many of a valuable thing as makes sense in one shot, and with ESHP. Lately, I donate 4 or 5 gnomes at a pop. 5 gnomes nets something like 8k XP, and 3000 favor points.)
    2. Lately, I make one or two trips per game day to the ancestral lands, to get both XP and currants.
    3. I do sing to butterflies, though I think it's not actually a good energy to XP ratio (about 2 to 1).

    And, as I have said before, this is not likely the most fun way to play the game. Though I fully admit that it is a lot of fun right now, with the big challenge before me. 

    Sounds like we have at least next week to play before reset, and I think I can make it! When they let us know the days the game is open, we can pick a date/time.

    Thanks again, y'all. <3

  • That is too cool! I'd like to donate to this cause too :D

    I'll find you in-game come next test and give you a gnome.

  • Eeeeee - how exciting!  Yay Clare!

  • The one and only Clare!?
    It was nice running into you in game today. As I said then, I am rooting for you all the way.. Good Job!
    Posted 16 months ago by Chicalet Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Wow, last I checked she was only level 93...she worked hard this test...dang...and I thought I worked hard to just get to level 30 (but I don't donate, so that's a big difference).

      ♥♥♥♥♥  GO CLARE GO!!!  ♥♥♥♥♥

    Me thinks that we need to have a BIG "clare made it to 100" party!

  • Go Clare! :)
    Posted 16 months ago by nekomaki Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Someone bump this next week when the game opens to remind all of us who want to give things to clare to send them along. 
    Posted 16 months ago by WindBorn Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Yes Clare, do tell us what you like to donate other than gnomes.  Next test I will mail you all i can!
    Posted 16 months ago by Sweetness Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Eve, a Garden Gnome and a Walloping Great Diamond are both worth about 2000 currants, or 200 favor points.  They are the highest value thing you can carry in an inventory slot.

    You can buy Garden Gnomes at the Garden Supply vendor.  So if she fills her inventory with bags, and her bags with gnomes, she's maximized the amount she can donate without refilling her bag. 

    Perhaps we could all pile up bags of gnomes at her favorite shrines and let her pick them up as fast as she can.

  • oh - lets have a gnome party and we can witness the 'offering of gnomes' to the giants!

  • Is there a benefit to donating multiples of something instead of one at a time?
    Posted 16 months ago by BarryW Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I have confidence that you will do it!  i am looking forward to the announcement that you have made it.
    Posted 16 months ago by Brib Annie Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Thank you, wonderful people!

    I think there are higher valued items (e.g., Crystalmalizing Chamber)... gnomes amuse me! (In fact, I am going to propose them as an alternate unit of currency, meaning that the price you pay for them from a vendor would be the same price you get when you sell them.)

    Once we know the next test dates, we can pick a date and time. They said it would be a long test, so we can probably aim for some time next weekend... which might maximize the number of people who could be around if they wanted to.

    I humbly propose Clarbeare Voya as the location of Clare Watch 2011, and the final donating and partying.

    Also, once again, you all are very kind and wonderful. Thank you for sharing this with me!

  • The only benefit of multiples, Brib Annie, is if you're using shrine powder, since the powder will multiply the effect of the donation. (And since the powder is expensive, and one would like to use it sparingly.)

  • WTG Clare--I hope I can be there to witness this historic event!
    Posted 16 months ago by marycontrary Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Clare, I have been unofficially watching since you hit 96, but katlazam pointed out earlier today that you had gotten to 98, so I had to post about it.  I am looking forward to this celebration more than any other so far!
    Posted 16 months ago by Nanookie Subscriber! | Permalink
  • What about it TS?  Clare deserves a badge or trophy that she can take with her after reset!
    Posted 16 months ago by Marla Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Ah, now I've found a historic event to donate the shrine powder that Gizmospooky so graciously gave me (hope you don't mind Gizmo)...hopefully I can remember when we reopen next week to send it to you clare!  Clare Watch 2011...classic!!
    Posted 16 months ago by b3achy Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I hope I can also be there, I'm on UK time so hopefully it can be scheduled to fit in most time zones. What a wonderful thing to bring the community together. Perfect location Clare! If for any reason I cannot make it I will post you some EHSP and be there in spirit with you. Lots of pics please someone.

  • i use to play FS . ( a closed game now. )
    they had fireworks when you reached the max level.
    but there is no max here so at level 100 they should give clare fireworks!

  • I'm so excited for you Clare! Pretty amazing feat! I think Windborn's, Time's and others that offered to help is a terrific idea. I know I'm going to pick up a few gnomes to contribute as well as EHSP. A special "Clarebeare"l trophy would be awesome. And how about a one-of-a kind hat or shirt? Whatdayathink, Sugarqb?
    Posted 16 months ago by GreyGoose Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Clare, I have a bigger bag of Extremely Hallowed Shrine Powder and a few bigger bags of music blocks that I'd like to give your cause. Good luck!
    Posted 16 months ago by Melody Pond Subscriber! | Permalink
  • 98? wow!

    At 99 Clare should be allowed to donate herself by jumping into the shrine. With all of her xp I'm sure she would instantly hit 100 and then get to see the secret hideout of Grendaline!

    Either way, pre-congrats and I hope I get to be there to witness this milestone.

    Also, i keep smiling as I try to imagine Clare signing in next test and being continually hounded by gnome bearing frogs!

  • Wow Clare! That's amazing!! Good luck - I will be pullin' for you!  :D
    Posted 16 months ago by CoffeeSnob Subscriber! | Permalink
  • You are all so very generous!

    Please no donations more than a gnome or so (e.g., just one EHSP, just one gnome, etc.). You all should keep going with your own projects!

  • I'm a newbie on level 9 so I can't even imagine level 98! Way to go Clare and very good luck to you! I love how everyone in here wants to help the other players. What a fun place to be. =)

  • clare, many of us have learned all the skills, achieved all the achievements, and otherwise used up what the TS staff have laid out for us.  We're used to creating our own goals within the game, and I think Stormy Weather said it well:  helping you IS a project. 

    Do let us know how we can help.  Personally, I have a large stash of currants, and spent way too many of them on a silly die.  I'd much rather spend them  on gnomes that someone can actually make use of.

  • What a fun excuse for a party!
    Re: scheduling the event to fit most time zones, as I've done my fair share of organizing meetings for a global audience, I've found that it's best to have these things around 15:00 (3pm) to 16:00 (4pm) UK time. The only people who get left out are those in New Zealand, Hawaii and other Pacific Islanders, where it's quite early in the morning. Using a tool like World Meeting Planner at worldtimeserver.com can help you adjust this middle-of-the-night period around the world, as fits the situation best.

  • so from your calculation above I'm thinking you need about 193 gnomes and 39 EHSP to reach level 99... 

    I'm in.
    i was just about to sell my house and buy a little tree house, so now I know what I'm doing with all those currants!

  • Where do I put my gnome-donation?

    I am down for Clare's century project!!
    Posted 16 months ago by Wiggles The Fluent Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Do you accept bricks and earth blocks? I make truckloads of those, and they're fairly valuable.
    PS: Can't attend the party. In AEST.
    Posted 16 months ago by KitkatCat Subscriber! | Permalink
